Description Sorry for posting two maps so close together, but once again, I will not be on for at least a week and a half. WILTM- I am hesitant to post this map. It is by far the most pumped with symbolism I have yet, and also is the most fun and thrilling in my opinion. I played a lot of atob maps because everyone thinks he is a mapping god. The truth is, he is good. I liked his maps. This map is him, but with my artistic twist. The tiles are quite obviously atob inspired. Except for the leaping man. I threw some one ways and open doors in for my personal tastes. atob does this thing, where he puts a lazer drone in the tunnel like I have at the start. Except, the ninja at least out of what I have seen, starts outside of the tunnel on atob's maps. Thus, we have an opposite, that directly metaphors this map being atob but different. atob also like to put his drones on a path that is usually one line. He does this with the tiles. I threw some me into that, and you get a zap drone that gets of his one line path, and a laser drone, that doesn't quite start on his. The leaping man, resembles the leaps of faith you have to take in this map. Let the map carry you, hold you, move you, and you will make it to the finish. After jumping away from the area where the zap drone to the right and up of the laser drone is, you will feel yourself wanting to jump on the pad that has the three gold above it. At this time the laser starts its fire, and you are like Oh Shit. I am dead. It is not so! The map takes care of you and that launch pad protects you. I get the same loss of control feeling whenever I play that part, and I made the map. If you fail to find this please look at my demo it is worth it. The door key section of the map almosts plays itself for you. I found myself able to stumble through it with ease. Just let the objects take you, take the leap of faith. Also, the trap door under the leaping man is cool because it isn't the trapdoor that traps you, it is the act of getting the switch. Also, it balances the normal door above the leaping man. The top left area also has the same let the force guide you feel to it. Well I just explained my map terribly, but I enjoy it a lot, and that is what is important.

This was good, but I didn't really like it. I'm not sure how that works out, but it has.
You claim so definitively that there is a certain way to inspire. Being an atob fan myself, I do see relations, and as he implies in his description he likes this quite a lot. I think that the amount he wrote shows that he was inspired well. I liked this one. Maybe it is just because he used the holy one's name in the description, but something suckered me into liking this.
This isn't how you take inspiration.

Here is an AGD

Have fun!
