Description A fun, open action map.

Please comment I'm trying hard to make better actions and I'd love feedback!

Infected Mushroom is one of my favorite maps. The jumps are insane, the thrills are high, the tileset is sexy. Not only does it have these qualities, but it is also fun. Magirocker didn't forget this key element in the mapmaking progress. This map could very well be a role-model to what maps should look like, what they should contain, and how they should flow. This Infected Mushroom is spreading its virus...

This is a tough map. That rocket by the exit switch is a bit severe.

Wait, what the /hell/? magirocker hasn't made a map in two bloody years?

Ah, god.

The review is fine. Blah blah.

tiles

are meh but the game play has a lot of flow.

Aw dang

This was my one attempt at a review that concentrated solely on the map instead of bringing in some story of sorts. Oh well.
But I like it, like Hey look I made a race by somebody. What happened? I downloaded it last night, can't find it anywhere!
I don't like it at all, he should of cleaned up the edges

Bland Review

the tiles are good

Don't get me wrong,

I think it's a good choice for a map.

Besides, I only like maybe 5% of the reviews on numa anyways.

*sigh*

I see. -_- :'[

Here we go.

Basically, the review sums up why the map is fun with the sentence "The jumps are insane, the thrills are high, the tileset is sexy." Saying that it's fun is redundant, as this is what the above sentence stated. "Magirocker didn't forget this key element in the mapmaking progress", again, is a pretty redundant statement which also states an incredibly obvious point (that maps should be fun). "This map could very well be a role-model to what maps should look like, what they should contain, and how they should flow" - this is a pretty big statement, and I don't believe you back it up with enough reasoning as to why it should be treated so highly, as the rest of your review describes a typical good map, not one which is special. Additionally, the review has an awkward flow to it, especially due to the final sentence, which is somewhat of a lame non-sequitur.

Overall, I just find it to be a bland review with fewer ideas than its length suggests.

please share. I want to improve. :)
but it feels nostalgic. It's such a typical 07/08 map with its variably open-ended and constricted areas that you don't see anymore. It also has the conspicuous use of scattered mines, gold patterns, and switches evident of the time period. The lack of moving enemies is additionally pretty typical. Playing it now, this map's fun just because it's been a while since I've seen a map like it.

Hate the review, though. Won't get into why.

Eh.

The aesthetics were awful and the gameplay felt to restricting. At least the review is good.

FTW ^^

Very fun.

Nice map

AGD

This is a GREAT map! I could get it a bit faster than this if I didn't miss where I was aiming for in the drop to the bottom left, but I still think it is a post-worthy demo. This is everything that an action map should be. Lots of open space so people can choose their own path, enemies to give you the "action" based on placement rather than sheer quantity, and gold placed in spots where and AGD is much more difficult than just finishing the level but the flow still stays constant. To top it off, it is a very nice looking map. I really hope someone important sees this map; it might be my favorite that I have found on NUMA so far and should get more than my single rating. I'll have to check out more of your maps later. 5aved.
