It's impressive that LouDog can craft something so clever and entertaining using such a sparse set of mapping elements. While the map may appear as empty and uninviting as a plot of jagged bodies of ice adrift just north of Greenland, I think this desolate minimalism is a great charm that returns the N game close to its roots. And despite being an awkward and hoppy map, it's very uniquely enjoyable. — skyline356

I really like this map.
Espcially getting to the exit.
Here's a review that Skyline wrote...
He likes the map, but some people don't.
Don't worry, be happy.
In every life we make mistakes,
When you complain it doubles the aches.
Don't worry, be happy (Don't worry be happy now).
Don't worry, be happy. Don't worry be happy.
Don't worry, be happy. Don't worry be happy.
Ain't got no place to get along,
If we just chill, we can't go wrong.
Don't worry, be happy.
People are angry and hated the map.
But the madness will be gone in a snap, so
Don't worry, be happy (Look at me, I'm happy).
Don't worry, be happy
Here I give link to my maps.
When you worry play them,
They make you happy.
Don't worry, be happy.
Ain't got no fun, ain't got no style.
Ain't got that map to make you smile.
But don't worry, be happy.
Cause when you complain,
Your face will frown.
And that will bring everybody down.
So don't worry, be happy (Don't worry, be happy now).....
Don't worry, be happy (Don't worry be happy).
Don't worry, be happy (Don't worry be happy)
Don't worry, don't worry don't do it, be happy
Put a smile on your face.
Don't bring everybody down like this.
Don't worry, it will soon past,
Whatever it is.
Don't worry, be happy...

mmm
whatcha sayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
2009-11-28
fix'd
EVERYONE NEEDS TO TRY A LITTLE HARDER ON BLOWING EVERYTHING OUT OF PROPORTION IMO.
2009-11-28
turns out, i think this is really fun
the only thing im not fond of is how difficult the gauss area is. its got a real unique atmosphere to it.
2009-11-28
what is wrong with you people
i liked how the Gauss were placed so that they can harass you on the bottom but take a large step up in difficulty when you reach the top area

I hate to side with atob, and
especially hate to side with Gloomp as he went about criticizing only by rating not what he thought and poor use of spellcheck.
And I'd hate to side against skyline. But this map.
This map was, in fact a wreck.
Aesthetics: Map is overall ugly, nothing but 1,0 and the slanty tiles.
Gameplay: Lacking, parts don't fit together, and no replay value, even though i tried.
Overall: sorry, 1, way below average

Well, i like atob's comment :D
don't have much else to say.
2009-11-28
i thought the review was terrific.
and gloomp knows whats up.
2009-11-28
Because Cerberus
we're all just too different
2009-11-28
Why can't we all just get along?

2009-11-28
Well I liked it a lot more
than I thought I would from the thumb hmm bounce-blocks were cool as were the drones could have been more refined but I'm not sure that would have made it better. I wouldn't have featured it but it's more interesting than many features.

gloomp

Hey look, I rated/commented a long time ago.
There's something to be had here, but I don't think it was on purpose.

Passing note.
You could have applied exactly the same review to THIS [nmaps.net] and it would have made a lot more sense. I mean, it even has the same digits in it's map number. :D

This one is terrible.
But creative concept. Very, very bad execution of the concept.

is kidding. I don't even know why people like LouDog maps so much, but this one just terrible :|
2009-11-27
I liked the review,
I didn't mind the map.
Whilst the good points are kept suspiciously vague. It's like someone wanted to feature a loudog map really badly but couldn't find a "uniquely enjoyable" one.
I've already got a loudog map slated for next week, if that matters.

oh dear
this is hideous.

I don't get the praise.
There's no tension, no atmosphere, no style, not much at all.
If you're going to go this route, real simplicity, then the gameplay has to be something really special. The bottom part is entirely boring and without threat or and kind of incentive to stay on the tiles.
The drone part is cool, but too brief for the most interesting part of the level.
The gauss part is just awkward and frustrating.
There are no really great transitions, no satisfying jumps, no charm to the design...
This level is lacking in every single sense of what an N map should be. I'd better add an IMO mattress in case you guys jump on this from too high, I wouldn't want you to hurt yourselves. :p
Loudog has made some great maps, so I'm glad he's got a feature (kids should play Loudogg maps!), but I wouldn't have chosen this.
Cool so many of you love it. Wish I could see why.
