"Butcher's Den", is a house map in Garry's Mod Zombie Survival. It was developed by johnny moe
As Butcher's Den was johnny moe's first zombie survival map, it underwent continuous development for one year before being officially released on the workshop. There are several older versions of the map under the name zs_butchers_den and zs_bdf. Forever was added to the title in the 2020 update as it was supposed to be the last version, but the map has been occasionally updated as late as 2022.
Design
The map is set in a nondescript location in south-western Texas. The house itself is inspired by an actual Victorian farmhouse plan. The theme is inspired by the film, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre
Beta versions of the map lack a lot of outdoor geometry compared to the later releases. Earlier versions were also hard for the survivors to win due to having too many entrances. The map has become more survivor-sided with time.
Gameplay
Butcher's Den is a singular-focus house map with a medium-sized barn ~512 hammer units. The playable space is ~30723 hammer units. The average z-spawns are ~1536 hammer units away from the closest engagement points.
There are several potential sigil locations, many of which are single-entrance with only a few double entrances.
Development
Older versions of the map mostly featured Half-life 2 and Counter-Strike: Source content. Laster releases added assets from Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines, Resistance and Liberation, and from friends of johnny moe including: Jakobi O'Brien, Short, and Stuffy360.
