Thanks

Thank you GNOTHERGNU ,Nexx , and PsychoSnail for the great comments, they really helped in finding a way to fix this map. I'll make a better one soon off of you guys' helpful hints.

Lil' faster

- Use less jumppads.
- The one-way after the last jumppad is too low. I kept hitting the tiles before the one-way, killing my momentum entirely.
- The runway into nothing at the end is a gimmicky no-no.
- The mines do help in directing the player, but they also affect the aesthetics and section off the map if used like this. Have your route intersect itself more frequently. Use more of the map and increase the length of the race.

Overall, an okay effort but ultimately I didn't like it. 2/5
Keep practicing!

but it really did not lend itself to a race map, so you did well to make anything out of it. i found it irritating to die because i jumped too enthusiastically at the beginning or up the left hand side. most of the launch pads were unnecessary. the gauses didnt do much. at the end, a vertical one-way platform would be useful for jumping off rather than stopping and turning around. mostly good aesthetically, as the mines followed the right lines.

hope the advice is helpful and you dont think its too critical.

overall 2.5 down

AGD.

Not bad, but it could've done with better aesthetics and fewer launchpads.
