Description Yet you still fall for its tricks.

Time for a different atmosphere, i thought. Abstract too.

Good race

lovely stuff

I would have preferred the last bit to go as per meta ing's original demo rather than as the intended flow route, but I'm going to give this map a flawless rating anyway :)

it looks amazing too.
This is a good map, but the flow isn't very to decipher.

Solid 3.5 rounded up.

changed it

thanks

To put it simply...

The first line of your description says:

"Yet you still fall for it is tricks."
First of all, everyone who says "its is correct", is correct. The reason for this is, whenever you have a regular noun, (not a pronoun) you do add an apostrophe-s ('s) to it in order to make it possessive. EG. The dog's tail. However, in the case of pronouns, adding an 's turns it into a contraction. EG. It's going to rain = It is going to rain. Adding an s without an apostrophe to a pronoun makes it possesive. (his, hers, its, theirs, etc.) That's why it would be its and not it's.

...Not that it's a big deal to me... I'm just explaining... I hope you understand that.

Very Nice

The flow was smooth and felt kinda original at the same time, I lost it completely at the end.

I have to ask, what makes a race abstract? Abstract does not mean new or creative. I mean, it's not a problem if NUMA adopts the term to mean the less traditional non-loopy race, but I was wondering how it came to be used like this...

Anyway, good race. 4

@destiny

it's definitely "its"

liked the thwumps

and not much else. you have to moderate your jumps unduly.

3/5

agreed

comments are much more important

hmmm...

i agree, destiny. i would generalize that, too. all abstract races are like that. well, time to rate...instead of having a perfect 5, you can have 15 ratings. not such a good swap actually, although really ratings don't matter.

lol yungerkid

i guess this level is like marmite, you either love it or you hate it

Not your best.

Lacked all F's in FFF. (fun, fast, and flowy.) Sorry, but I prefer your other non-abstract races MUCH more. 3.5/5

i actually

didn't like this. it's the first race of yours that i haven't liked, actually. it lacked speed, flow, and intuitiveness (...), and deserves a 3, but i'll let you enjoy your 5 for now.

No, it's not correct.

Look up how grammar works. It's supposed to be "its" in this case.

thanks guys

@psychosnail: it's is correct because of ownership. Personification :P.

I actually

don't like these kinds of races. I don't want to have to think about where to go next, that's why I'm playing a race and not an action map. This plays well as an action map though.

great race

Guess not...

I did the end wrong.

I love the atmosphere this race has, but I thought it lacked speed.

still awesome.

Did I do it right?

(I didn't look at the demo)

Some things about this race stick out to me (in a good way): mainly the flow and the tileset. 5/5, I really like this one.

AGD -1.

Very nice,

Beautiful flow as always.
By the way, in the description, it's should be its.
