DM-Shiqi

Inspired by a sequence in House of Flying Daggers, I modeled, unwrapped, and textured drums to use as jumppads.  At first, I had jumpads only on the heads of the drums, but the drums themselves blocked the players when they approached the pad from behind.  To solve this problem, I placed smaller, invisible jumppads behind the drums to propel the players onto the larger ones at the head.
