Description Collab between me and Radium. We were stranded on an island together and we had to pass the time somehow... lol.

This map was featured on 2010-12-20

Serendipity is when you collect all the gold without getting killed by those coldblooded pirates and leave this uncomfortable island...

...or: 'Just survive'.

In most cases, a collaboration map made by two talented authors is a huge success.
This one being no exception. Even the thumbnail is good enough to make sure that Serendipity Isle won't be an average map.

But besides that, the enemies are the quintessence.
While every second person would have used at least one gauss turret or rocket, Guitar_Hero_Matt and RadiumFalcon made it better. Three drones are the real deal - revealing the tileset's full potential. — Chrdrenkmann

ORIGIN 1754: coined by Horace Walpole, suggested by The Three Princes of Serendip, the title of a fairy tale in which the heroes ‘were always making discoveries, by accidents and sagacity, of things they were not in quest of‘.

No. Serendipity is

when you set out to find something and then instead, you find something else of value.

the overall style

of this map is very cool. very very cool. The gameplay is alright. but felt a little disjointed/awkward. still cool. 4

That looks much longer than it is, it would appear.

I...hang on

That cannot be less than 100 words. O_o

*does word count*
plays better than it looks.
It almost ends up playing like an episodic jumper more so than a pure action map. Moving through the map is disjointed and, although well executed in it's own right, is a bit awkward at time.

Smart choice limiting the enemy range to really just the bottom right, really emphasizing the top left as what it is, a tile climber. If the enemies posed any real threat there the tiles would be a hassle, as it is they work great as the enemy (yes, tiles are enemies in this regard).

Just interesting thoughts on what is an interesting map.

@flag

Guess what... it isn't. :P

The review should not make me question whether English is your native language.

The title, description, map, and review are all awesome.

Faved.

Fantastic Map!

Really great tileset, excellent gold placement, and that chain gun is actually really well used in an interesting way. 5/5.

Casanova Rodeo” by shortshift [nmaps.net] is one of the most fashionable and smart maps up to date, and another proof of his artistic brilliance. It combines breathtaking action with a classy, graceful style and an ingenious ending. The tall cliffs above provide an unmatched atmosphere and some very nice variety in gameplay.

I guarantee you a mind-blowing experience when you dive head first into the deeps of this map. And you’ll never want to come up again, I promise!

I win. :D
