Description	Not me at my best, but there are close calls throughout, not only in the beginning this time.

I just tried more bounce blocks, but it interfered with what I already had. I got the ninja to go through the chaingun, which I thought was cool (even though it was right after the chaingun's last shot). At least these are getting a bit longer, and a bit better with each one.

You should've made it longer.
You missed some opportunities for some great close calls. Overall, there just wasn't enough close calls, and the chaingun could've been used much better.

In addition to Lightning55's tips, here's [metanet.2.forumer.com] a guide for making DDAs. bluenin, Wizard2, and Dead_N are also excellent DDA makers. Also, never forget that the point of a DDA is to create excitement, which is usually done by getting close calls, not by merely moving the ninja around the map. If a DDA ever gets boring, you're doing something wrong.

I'm not a DDA god.

Unlike several others. Especially when it is so small. My action maps are big, so I am quite uncomfortable making small maps. I make small DDA's because they are short. I don't have the time to spend 20+ hours on a DDA.

I think you did a nice job putting a chaingun in, but there wasn't many close calls and it was rather boring. 2.5^
