(contracted; show full)
The game has an assortment of [[Level (computer and video games)|maps]], all created by XGenStudios. They are, in no particular order, XGen HQ, Sunnyvale Trailer Park, Toxic Spillway, Workplace Anxiety, Storage Yard, Green Labyrinth, Floor Thirteen, The Pit, 	
Industrial Drainage, GlobalMegaCorp LTD, Concrete Jungle, Nuclear Underground, Unstable Terrace, Office Space, The Foundation, Brawlers Burrow and Trench Run. XGen HQ is the default and therefore most commonly used level in the game.


== Hacking in Stick Arena ==
Stick Arena does have a major hacking problem. There are immortality hacks, speed hacks and weapon spawning hacks (so a hacker could get their desired weapon when they want it). Hackers also have the power to freeze lobbies, effectively crippling gameplay as the lobbies are necessary to go into the different games set up. Just recently they have found ways to undo HTML blocks in the lobbies, enabling them to post pornographic pictures in the lobbies.
Recently, much work has been put forth by the creator of the game (skye) and as a result, a lot of the hacking issues have been solved.

Hackers have also added maps into the game.niggerniggerniggerniggerniggerniggerniggerniggernigger

== Effects on XGenStudios Forums ==
The popularity of the game has led to a rush of new users joining the XGenStudios Forums. As the age of Stick Arena players skews rather young, some of these people are derided for having little knowledge of how message board systems work, along with poor spelling/grammar, etc. The added activity created by Stick Arena players also caused long downtimes in the forums due to the server being unable to put up with that many users using the forums at once. This problem seems to be behind the forums as of now. Stick Arena players were (and in some cases still are) called "n00bs" by the more experienced forumers, but some have turned themselves into decent users.
