| Map Overview

Sinshine is a community created symmetrical control point map added in the Scream Fortress 2015 update. It is a Halloween-themed version of Sunshine.
It features the standard 5CP layout with a mid, two seconds, and two lasts, with forward spawns for each point beyond mid owned. Contrary to what some believe, Sinshine is not directly inspired by any other 5CP but does place the second point on a spire-like structure with two small chokes going to mid. Badlands and Process do this as well.
Sinshine was contributed to the Steam Workshop.

Control Point 3
- ClockTower: The Clocktower serves as the middle control point. It is accessed from the sides with openings in the front and back for fire. There is a small platform above for jumping classes and a small health kit. Directly beneath the point is a pool of lava with a Large health kit cauldron on a small platform.
- Shacks: On each of the four corners of the Bell Tower are small wooden shacks that can be used as cover
- Valley: One of the ways to get to the middle control point is to go through the Valley, a relatively open area that leads from the second and the fourth control point to the middle one
- Cafe: Another way to reach control point 3 is to head through the Cafe, a large stone buildings which are in front and behind the Bell Tower
- Chokepoints: The main entrance to the middle point for both teams
Control Point 2 & 4
- Deteriorated Clocktower: Both teams have a worn-down clock tower that serves as the second and fourth control points.
- Platforms:On the left of the Lighthouse (or the right when looking from the attacking team perspective) is a wooden platform that leads into the Valley
- Staircase: Just behind the Lighthouse is a set of stairs that lead down to the tunnel.
- Wooden Warehouse: Further behind the Lighthouse is the Warehouse, a giant three-story structure that acts as a gate from the last point to the second/fourth one and reverse.
Control Point 1 & 5
- Control point platform: This is the location of the first/fifth control point
- Elevation: To the left of the Missile platform (from defending team side) is an elevated platform that overlooks the point.
- Crates: On the right of the capture point is a set of barrels and crates.
- Wall: There is a chain-link fence just behind the Missile Platform
