Description So, it turns out I did a agree with Mahi's feedback after all...

Third time's the charm, it seems.

Opened the level up considerably, added more tiles to produce the needed atmosphere, and I even managed to sneak a cobweb in there!

Plays much nicer, looks better, fits the theme (imo).

No ghost drones!

And again

that makes no sense. Haunted doesn't have to feel abandoned.

Had some great jumps

but again, far too open and too much movement to feel haunted.

i'm flattered

much much better. perhaps the laser room is a little cut off from the rest but the cobweb was sick. awesome

don't love it, the other entry is much better. also, parts of the map reminds me of my recent maps hah. especially the chain/bounceblock/gold area.

First/Second based on the dates of submission.

See.

I don't think those maps fit the atmosphere well at all, the first is almost there but it's just too generic, and the second has nothing that says haunted to me in the slightest.

You're

right to a point. Superstardom made maps that did it without use of ghost drones.

Well.

This tileset is more than fitting, and I'm not sure any of your suggestions bar the use of Ghost drones would produce the atmosphere needed.

Tbh, I think Ghost drones is the only real way to get the haunted vibe just right.

Try a muse map with a spooky tileset.

Trap doors, perhaps? Hidden objects, ghost drones version 2, doorwebs, and triggers are the only ways I can think of.

Hmm.

I've a feeling this contest is going to be a tricky one to conjure the correct atmosphere for.

I'd like to get it without hidden objects or using the ghost drones, but I'm not sure how possible it is...

I have to agree with Pheidi

Not very ghosty.


I loved the drone tunnel at the bottom. It was epic. 4

Hajtun - your comment is really constructive and brilliant; AND WHAT A CONTENT, YAYZ

Great map.

Looks great, plays great. I like the range of enemies you managed to incorporate. However, I'm not sure it feels haunted. It's giving me that quiet, after-the-end dystopian vibe, which can be eerie in its own right, but it just doesn't strike me as a haunted house. Also, I admire the lack of hidden objects here.
