Description Race #4 :P... It's more difficult than my other races, but it's possible. By the way, this is the first time I used object-walljumping and also the first time I used nreality. Yes, nreality!^^

There are:
- a laser drone mod
- a chaingun mod
- a modified rotating laser drone
- a modified alarm drone

... But for some reason I don't like this map... Strange :/

Nice map. At first I hated the first jump with the thwump but after seeing GNU's demo I managed to almost finish it.
Work a lot on Aesthetics.:) 3/5
about the ratings I give, more as the criticism I give, so I guess I didn't really think about the rating. I think that you can have the potential to become a good racemaker, you just need some practice.
Sorry for your demo, I know the laser drone could've been better timed :/... But I must say that you're a really good player^^...
And I don't feel like I ~have~ to make my races so long, but when I make the tilesets and stuff many ideas come to my mind how I could use that and that in another way and yes... Maybe it's something like my personal style...?

P.S.: Psst... You didn't vote :o...

P.S.

don't feel you have to make your races so long - i think optimum is ~1000 frames.
i really like the way you used the nreality enemies, the rotating laser and alarm drone were creatively used. the timing could be a bit more generous on most of the enemies, especially the bottom thwump and laser. if anyone else is having difficulty with the first jump, try jumping off the one-way like in my demo, i find it almost always works. i admire the amount of effort that went into making this, and it think it paid off, although from the thumbnail it looks quite noobish. most people do not enjoy jumping off thwumps and one-ways so try to avoid it if you can. overall these things made it a bit frustrating to play and a bit too difficult for me, even though the flow was creative and good. i thought i was doing pretty well with this demo, but then i died :( 4/5

... I agree with you... The gold is really not perfect and the laser drone may be a little bit too hard :/... But I could delete this one mine at the beginning and then you could just walljump from the right to the left (where the rocket is) without bouncing against the thwump^^... Would that be better?

... I also agree with the voting thing - my first map was highly overvoted... But now this map is highly undervoted xP... Apropos... I must always smile when I see your -comments xD
I only get it 1/15 tries.

and I really

don't want enemies here either. I just want people to know they can improve, and how. If there is a horrible map (not this) and everybody rates it 4s and 5s, then that map maker will keep on making those horrible maps. However, if that map maker gets low rates, then they will want to impress everybody and make a better map.

I'm just saying

that first jump really feels out of place. The enemies could have been placed a bit better, because they kept on killing me when I thought I was playing the map properly. I think the gold could have been placed a bit better in a way that it tells people where to go, especially in confusing maps like these, instead of just sharing the track.
I guess I did rate a bit harsh, I''m just trying to not go easy on people anymore.
I watched your demo, and because the gold was just sharing the track, this is what I got and was talking about. It's usually good to submit a demo right after you publish a map, so that people know where to go. I guess that affected my rate a bit.
Sorry about that.

You said please...

so I won't edit it^^... The fact that you played my map more often than one time gives me hope that this isn't as bad as the ratings say :]...

oh

xy I haven't saw your demo before I beat it that way

I'm glad that

I beat this map

please don't edit the map to make my run invalid :(

xD

Ok, yes, that's another possibility^^...
... Oh! This race is highly cheatable O.o... xDD...

You're right, bufar... Nobody wants that. Sorry for my behaviour, MattyMc13, at least I didn't swear or something :/... (You won't read this, too, I know it xD)

I'll explain the jump know, maybe it's really too hard, but I wanted to have this jump because I like it.
When you hit the ground you've to jump right, then walljump left and then hold left+jump. The thwump will cause the jump, if you did it right. If you try it a few times you'll get the timing soon, it isn't that hard ^^

Now the criticism: I see, the flow isn't the best, but that's because of the jumps I wanted to have in that race. I'll try to have a (normal) flow as in "An Autograph of the Devil" next time. The jump at the beginning may be hard, but it's beatable after a few tries, just don't give up!

Are there any other (maybe good) points about this map? I want constructive criticism, especially because of this low ratings :P ... Is there a reason that someone voted now a 0 on this map or is it my first sniper? I mean, my race has close calls and a good tile set, that should count, too, shouldn't it?

Of course you think its a decent map. No one wants their name attached to junk. Your attitude isn't helping either.
after my dead in the demo. Well, you have to jump on the thwump on the left, then walljump up, come to the trap door let yourself fall. Then run right jump, walljump against the thwump and run over the one ways left... The rest should be clear.

MattyMc13, I'm pretty sure you didn't do it right and I'm angry now because of your 1-vote >:[...
You're like: Oh, it doesn't work like I want it to, so it's shit... But you probably won't even read this xP...
Oh, damn, I should calm down :/... *grumml*

... umm... ok...

I think this is at least 3-worthy xP... Are you sure you did the jump correct? I think not so, it's a tricky jump, look at the demo.

(... If you did it right then sorry, but please explain me why this should be so horrible, the flow is ok.)

I hated this map. The objects are all against the flow, making it so difficult to maneuver it's not fun at all. Really work on your flow.
