Description OK.

I put /A LOT/ of effort into this map. The goal here was to create a non linear, tense, edge play type of map that still, (even in its non-linearity) had direct routes. Obviously, at the beginning, you can either go left or right, (the right I highly recommend).

Fastest AGD in 3 days gets a ded.

Although Mekkah [nmaps.net] may no longer be with us, he left us some amazing maps.

Trading Snakeoil for Wolfticket's ingenious design allows you to traverse into either side of the map, cautiously picking up gold and keys. But be warned, the twin chainguns located in the center of the map will try their best to deny you of victory.

Mekkah's [nmaps.net] brilliance shines in this map, and I wish he was still here to create maps as fabulous as this. — RadiumFalcon

NEW FEATURE!!!!!!

just kiddin'

@ Dead_N

No it is not. [nmaps.net]
A definite 5/5 from me.
Also, is featuring a DDA against the rules? Just asking :/

This is tiring.

Come the fuck on.

By all means,

someone feature a map.

yeah

the reviews are FUBR, I'm going to wait to this gets sorted out before i apply to be a reviewer.

since I'm lazy, could someone tell me? =)
side of the screen, but thanks to whoever explained my scenario for me. :)

I'm making plans to buy a laptop on Black Friday (the day after Thanksgiving), so until then all I can do is play through the browser, which is pretty hard. and sometimes the demos work in N, and sometimes not.

for future reference to everyone: if I post a demo between now and Thanksgiving, you might have to look at it on the web site in my profile.

that's all I'll say on the matter. :|

Hey!

I wasnee angry.

...

life should mention that he dies on his AGDs. we shouldn't have to go to his profile to figure that out.

also, now everyone's hesitant to review maps because the previous reviewer will be angry, and we've been on Mekkah since Tuesday. not cool.

swipenet

Look at his profile.

I love it.

you can go both ways which is cool.

ACTUAL AGD

life247, a replay where you die is not an agd.

Being one of my favorite authors, he's got tremendous talent.

haha

raidium 'some maps got even less time, so that yours got less as well doesn't matter'

agd

messed up in the upper part. 5aved. very well put together.

Mekkah was a great author. this map [nmaps.net] was my favorite of his.
Demo Data

Well,

some maps got even less time than that mintnut, so you can't complain. Let's please end this discussion.

Ahem

I waited until at least a couple of days had passed before submitting my review. I even checked between writing the review and posting to see if any other maps had been featured whilst I was featuring.

You on the other hand, featured your map within 12 hours of mine.

P.S. You've got to love serious responses to throwaway joke-y comments. x.

Cowardly demo.

Demo Data

haha, no demo's at all.. sad

@mintnut

In case you haven't noticed, all of the previous featured maps have been cut short. For the time being, a featured map has no set time to be aired. Btw, I wrote the review and waited several hours for you. Apparently not good enough.

@GTM

What do you mean by somebody removed the review?

?

Someone removed the review? :P
i might just have to get up off my ass and (try to) review some myself.

kindof ugly'

i really didnt like this one :/'
3'
I enjoyed the right more than the left.
But I find the gold placement terrible. It wasnt very fun to collect and was either in extremely irritating places or places that were way too easy. Never in that happy medium. Didnt enjoy that way it looked either, except that funky cool piece of tileset in the middle.

Oooh

Pretty nice map, shame the chainguns merge. Obviously well thought out. And RF, your new avatar is awesome :)

Very cool.

Faved + Featured.
It's supremely cool.
Fav'd. The bottom left and the center part ain't so good.

This sounds insane,

but you should try your hand at a race and see what comes out.

Ah.

Thats what I needed.

"design" was too broad 4 me!

thanks.
I'm just an opinionated git ;)
elements such as: creative/inspired/themed tile shapes inspired by something outside of NUMA, not by other author designs; original mixes of objects to create interesting/fun/fresh gameplay mechanics; well considered structure to heighten the feel of the map and create tension and atmosphere where needed, etc..

I can't be any more specific, it's almost impossible to put into words.
I totally agree.

:p

Furthermore, I have a track-record my entire life as a, "late bloomer" kinda guy. Not making excuses or anything, I'll get it down. Also, for the record, I'm not angry or disgruntled, I hope were not at odds or something ;)

Cheers ;)
