Map Data

Description I love this name. So I was playing BOBODAHOBO's most recent map "Fur," found here: http://numa.notdot.net/map/40788
Before I knew it, I started editing it like crazy, and I created a totally different map. Similar tiles, similar enemies, very different feel. I'm keeping this as a test level until BOBODAHOBO okays it. And yes, all of this is optional. You can just go to the top right and win. That was intentional. No, I don't have holes in my brain, I want you to have the option of skipping everything.
So, yeah, enjoy this.

Sometimes you play a map, and you're like, fuck, this could be done better. You move a few things around, adjust some tiles here, place some objects there, and it can make all of the difference. This is what nevermore did with this map. With just a few subtle changes he crafted a splendid map. This map was one of the first to test the player in their resolve, giving them the option to cheat ahead to the end. But if you stick with it, you will be rewarded. — rocket_thumped

GREAT MAP, VERY HARD

this map is just.. terrible, imo
are the most important objects in the map.

I don't understand this choice at all, but what the hell, you've inspired me to feature a few nevermore maps this month.

I do think, however

that this is your best review. I just really, really don't like the map :/

A map featured

four years after it was made.
I see you all in 2014. :)

Not fond

Of the gold/mines on the far right, doesn't fit with the rest and looks hastily placed. And like AMLT said, the gold with the floorguard at the bottom is just plain awkward. And yeah, those E-tiles. 3/5.
and how the Event Horizon passed through mere space and time and into something else? that is what the zap drone is like - more than just mere frustration and difficulty, it has passed - transcended, if you will - into something greater, into something malevolent and vile. If i was a deathwatch kill-team i would have ordered Extirminatus on this entire map and had the virus-bombs and cyclone-torpedoes deployed immediately just to completely annihilate it, i despise it so.

Secondly, the one time i got past the drone and didn't use the nice shortcut so thoughtfully provided, i landed on that platform with the mine stuck on it on the right and it killed me from the force through the tile. This doesn't seem like very good design.

Thirdly, the chaingun worked well and the other single mine was acceptable (in that it didn't kill me through solid objects) and i liked how the gold looked when it wasn't on the far left or the far right. So i didn't like this very much. Sorry.

200 frames slower...but not bad

And those E tiles look ugly.
But other than that this is pretty cool.

Humbug.

I need to get the top smoother.

Wonderful map. A favourite of mine.

nice map

I wasn't incredibly fond of the chain gunner, but I pulled off a completion. nice map. 4.5

Oh.

I forgot to mentioned this package comes with bitesized and favorized.

Yes!

Love the map, absolutley perfect but you could have made it so it was easier to approach the second route. For that you get a four point five.

This demo was about my fifteenth try for a route with gold but not all. This map was another action map that i actually enjoyed playing. Perfect to the dot, and you just made my day.

Dead'd

But a starter demo.
99turtle99, that clunky block is there for contrast. The looks of it are supposed to turn you off, as it supplies a shortcut which I would like to dissuade people from using, but still keep available. Thus, the looks will subconsciously help people to desire to complete the whole thing rather than just skipping it, unless their motives outweigh the voice inside their head telling them to stay away from that huge hunk of tiles, in which case their taking the shortcut would be justified, i.e. they're in a hurry or aren't in the mood to play the whole map.
See, these are the things that I think about when I make maps. Maybe I read too far into them...

99turtle99:

Did you just point out an inadequecy and then gave it a 5?

have no idea

how to get past the zap drone. demo anyone?
your one of the people i'm trying to talk to. as for the map. good one. 4.5/5
needs more feel. 5/5
