| Description | Mine based and jumperesque. Pretty straightforward. All-gold adds a little more danger. |

Usually, this is the point where I would expound my views trying to vindicate my reasons for featuring this map. And in most cases I would go on to highlight the well thought out concept, practically omnipresent rocket, faultless mine placement and general all round wickedness.
But I won't, because you may as well just play this and get the waiting over. It's like, crazy!

I don't like this map
And I never have. I found it to be hard in an annoying way and too long. Also, it's genre is a mix: action/jumper/mine jumper. But when you mix genres, you're supposed to tone each genre down a bit so that it all fits well together. It's not fun to be playing an action map and then suddenly have a tough jumper-style obstacle in front of you. Non-action obstacles rarely work in an action map unless they're action-ified. Such is my opinion, anyway.

I thought you guys were kidding...
...when you said you'd go down my favourites and start featuring them?

yes yes yes yes
my favorite map of all time. An inspiration and testament to the capabilities of NED. Keep this featured for a week.

I am yet to see
a map maker who can make playable tilesets as good as the ones this guy makes. Sheer genius..
there is something wrong with you.

I think
that this was the map that introduced me to this concept (No idea if or when it was done before). Either way it's brilliantly constructed. Great feature. I have used this concept countless times after seeing this =D.

slow agd
A few quick & interesting techniques near the beginning, and I did the rest slowly because I hadn't all-golded this gem yet.
I might try for a quick demo later.

omg...
that was the worst end death ever - sry no demo =( i got all of the buttons heading toward the exit - and that last little rocket thingy (for lack of a better word) shot a missle and killed me when i was like one centimeter away from it - i was actually on top of the exit and it swoops around and blows my bits and pieces into that little pit =| in other words - that sucked - but great map!

Are your maps seeing anyone. I'm lookin' to make a love connection and I simply can't get your maps out of my head.

Wow
Sheer brilliance. I love it. I can even beat it! Which just adds to the goodness.
2006-02-09
Yep...
I agree with Korbachev. This isn't one of my favorites, but needless to say it's still fantastic.
2006-02-08
You know...
The best part about NUMA these days is that DDAs are kinda growing old, and aren't dominating the top rated maps.
And top rated maps are where they should be, like this one.

Mine kicked it up :)
I thought it was a jumper at first, but it's more actionesque which was a pleasant suprise.
