Maps from Angela Maps Patreon in August 2025
Space Station - You spin me right round, baby, right round, like a space station, baby, right round, right round! Secret research lab, deep space outpost, or space pirate hideaway? This orbiting structure is equipped with everything you might need to survive the deep cold and crippling isolation of being locked in a rotating structure, separated from vacuum and death by only a few inches of reinforced metal. Just...try not to think about it too much! Fully animated and rotating at a slow and steady pace, this space station is the perfect base for any group of spacefaring heroes, the staging ground for countless sci-fi adventures!
Pearly Gates - I guess she really bought that stairway to heaven. Lo and behold, the pearly gates! Whether your party has arrived here after trekking through the challenges and perils of some celestial mount, perished in any of the innumerable ways adventurers do and somehow made it to the good place, or simply hopped a planar portal or spell this way, the imposing celestial gates now stand before them – in welcome or defiance?! Fully animated and available in three variants, with doors open, closed, and with a stunning vision of the fallen heavens, this map should have your players singing in angelic choir or weeping blessed tears in no time, finding out what happens when you’re knock, knock, knocking on heaven’s door!
Cargo Deck - What happens in the cargo bay, stays in the cargo bay. Just an ordinary storage space for ordinary freight, or is some strange cargo lurking among the innocuous crates and containers? Available in two variants, featuring a more colourful deck and one repurposed as a hydroponics bay, this staging ground has lots of places to hide and take cover, be it for thoroughly peaceful negotiations, subtle infiltration, or no-holds-barred shootouts!
Dangerous Cave - Let’s talk about caves. Holes of various sizes in a planet’s stony crust, providing shelter from the elements raging in the world beyond, often endowed with their own ecosystems, and a favourite haunt of adventurers either looking for fame, fortune, glory, or just a hiding place to lay low from the countless enemies that are hunting them down after the bard did that thing back in town. Picking the right cave for your party can be difficult, but not impossible! Consider these three fully animated variants: the classic giant spiders’ lair; the bone-strewn haunt of some deadly foe that has a particular predilection for humanoid flesh; or a cavern rich with shimmering gem deposits that are definitely neither the eggs of some bizarre crystalline entity or cursed in any way! Caves: they’re what’s for dinner!
Cybernetics Lab - Tired of your old body? Why not try something new! Just hop on down to your local cybernetics shop and try out the latest developments in both cyber and bio-ware from their wide-ranging catalogue, ready to be installed at a moment’s notice by their highly qualified team of compassionate technicians and caregivers. What this facility might lack in plush accommodations it more than makes up for with speed, efficiency, and great customer service – they barely ever get any complaints! Just be sure to always follow staff instructions and never, ever go through the red door to the north, which may or may not contain: 1. the corpses of dissatisfied customers, 2. empty cyborg shells awaiting a consciousness to be transferred into them by way of an altered carbon stack, or, 3. human clones ripe for replacement organ harvest. The techs get tired of all the screaming. Be the You You want to be!
Rebellion Plaza - Rebellions are built on hope. Sometimes, that hope is shattered. Other, better times, it is rewarded with freedom, emancipation, and a welcome end to oppression. Commemorating such an accomplishment is surely deserving of a public monument like the one at the heart of this plaza, a memorial to the losses, the sacrifices, and the ultimate, costly victory over oppression. History is known to repeat itself, however, and the spectre of tyranny is never very far from returning. Whether you choose to keep this plaza a peaceful reminder of atrocities past, with its comfortable cafés and fashionable shops, or whether it is to be the site of yet more despotism, this map is a perfect staging ground for peaceful protests and gatherings where nothing could possibly go wrong! Available in day and night versions, as well as an other more fantasy-inspired version, you can almost already hear the people sing! The Galaxy is Watching! Giant 54 x 54 map!
Cosmic Snow- Talk about a space oddity! Simply a peculiar rock formation, a portal to some strange dimension, the maw of a petrified or camouflaged beast, or something even more incomprehensible and undocumented yet? Whatever the case, this shimmering arrangement of jagged, rocky spires is sure to intrigue, mystify, and befuddle any would-be space and/or time explorers that might come upon it. Fully animated and available in three stunningly colourful variants, this map can serve as the end to a long search, or the beginning to a wild adventure through uncharted territory, to infinity, and beyond!
Tiered Gardens- Today, on Better Maps and Gardens: the Tiered Gardens! Take a stroll through this beautifully maintained and curated plot, where paving stones, statuary, and outdoor furniture coexist symbiotically alongside the verdant life, colour, and diversity of all manner of flora, local and exotic alike. The perfect place for a quiet rendez-vous, a diplomatic gathering, or a gruesome assassination in broad daylight! Fully animated and available in three variants, with autumn and winter complementing the verdant greens of summer and spring, get your hands into the dirt and on this map now, and remember: if there’s a bustle in the hedgerow, you may want to be alarmed!
Armus- So your player—let’s call her Denise—got too busy and has to quit your game. Looking to kill off her character in the dumbest, most meaningless way possible? This map has you covered: dirt, suspiciously fake-looking rocks, and one cranky, sentient oil slick.
No stress, though — if Denise ever comes crawling back to your table once her schedule frees up, you can just have her reroll as her old character's pointy-eared, blonde-haired daughter from an alternate reality. Foolproof!
This nostalgic map is animated, in variants with and without the ship, and even comes with a ship token! (Weird purple face-jelly death stain not included)
