Map feels way too short and kinda boring that one way spam is also ugly

you can also go with dummy the upper way and skip the parts which feels a bit faster

Im agree with Steinchen, very boring map

fikmesan 10/05/2023 5:17 AM

What makes it boring? It’s a simple map and theres barely any easy maps on dummy server that are doable for the majority or players 🤔

steinchen99 10/05/2023 11:01 AM

Personally I find dummy chamber 1-3 pretty fun this map feels like a dummy map from ciniminix thats not really finished (like the "try it" maps if they are called like that)

fikmesan 10/05/2023 3:34 PM

I just don’t see a problem with releasing maps, seems unnecessary to decline maps just because some people dislike it, there will always be people who dislike each map that gets released but that doesn’t mean that every map is bad 🤷🏻‍♀️ I like simple mapping styles instead of crazy new shit with tons of ddnet features xd Would also be nice if testers could stop being so biased in their testing depending on who made the map 😅 Should be able to release perfectly fine maps even if you don’t like the map personally 🙃

nezox1 10/05/2023 6:11 PM

this hook is hard to compare to the rest of the map

nezox1 10/05/2023 6:12 PM

If it is a 1 star map, you can indicate that the dummy should go first

nezox1 10/05/2023 6:13 PM

wrong mark

nezox1 10/05/2023 6:14 PM

there should be no freeze + wrong mark

nezox1 10/05/2023 6:20 PM

quite an awkward start

nezox1 10/05/2023 6:21 PM

skip

nezox1 10/05/2023 6:26 PM

make #6 group because now its looks shit

texnonik 10/05/2023 6:27 PM

easy maps are harder to make easy and interesting . (for me) my first map dummy map that i finished was caventure , it was a bit harder , but parts are there interesting (my opinion) . But don't make simular , it is old map . insperation yes , but also need to make parts new and intersting ! Hope it helps with new map creation , i had mapping novice maps before , it's hard i know ...

nezox1 10/05/2023 6:29 PM

But there are people who do it, and for whom it is more difficult to do something difficult than something easy but interesting

I'm personally not a big fan of the map either but many simple maps are so popular because the majority loves just that. I'd make some spots less faily and more intuitive (and ideally a more pleasant design) but then, I think it'll bring as much joy to the community as all the unique and creative maps (even though I cheer for them)

texnonik 10/05/2023 6:31 PM

didn't know that , well now i know then xD .

You should look at some of the declines maps sometime

b0mf 10/06/2023 9:22 AM

It’s fairly obvious why we decline maps it’s not for no reason

b0mf 10/06/2023 9:23 AM

If you post your map on the testing channel it will be tested simple as that you cannot complain about that 🥳

i randomly decided to join a test map, i did in no means do a "test" i just played the map. Once on entities and one without. Very easy map, i do think for the dummy server there isn't too many maps to get you into doing the dummy maps.

Notes: i) I enjoyed the simplicity of it, i would like to see it a bit longer 3-4 parts or so. I got like 4 min on a slow-ish run

ii) *see screenshot. The contrast of the design i feel sometimes its a bit hard to see my dummy, maybe thats just me.

sstompie 10/08/2023 12:54 PM

iii) This part could use an unfreeze maybe?

sstompie 10/08/2023 12:54 PM

Just my 2 cents 😛

louis.place 12/05/2023 10:24 PM
louis.place 12/05/2023 10:24 PM

a couple blocks too difficult

louis.place 12/05/2023 10:25 PM
louis.place 12/05/2023 10:25 PM

add warning sign

louis.place 12/05/2023 10:25 PM

give a bit better space here

louis.place 12/05/2023 10:25 PM
louis.place 12/05/2023 10:25 PM

warning sign here

louis.place 12/05/2023 10:25 PM

both warning signs need turn entities off as well

louis.place 12/05/2023 10:26 PM

not a bad map imo

louis.place 12/05/2023 10:27 PM

fix the design background, its too dark

louis.place 12/05/2023 10:28 PM

try adding a couple parts as well, its very short

louis.place 12/05/2023 10:28 PM

$waiting

fikmesan 12/31/2023 10:54 AM
