very good map

they are just starting out and one day could become solid mappers, so please be a bit more constructive for newcomers

Big troll ama :bread:

Please

fruna is recently joining in the world of mapping, he need good tips

yes

good map

My advice is to pick a map you really like and then try to create something similar with your own parts.

man for this maps

i recommend use one new design

no make this

1- make a new design

2- fix the sky/background

3- put more stuffs and parts

or no

i recommend you look the tutorial of how to use the editor, so you can better understand

and I also recommend you to play recent maps to get inspired by the design

I really hope that one day you can become a good mapper, but like every beginning, no one gets it right the first time so mass hand

cool logo

what do I think of the analysis?

ok so here are problems I see with this map

• the parts are very tight, which is something that can happen while using the editor because there is no scale reference.
• you use teleports to go from one place to another, which sabotages the maps flow. making the parts next to each other is a better approach.
• the teleport has the same color as freeze, they have to be distinguishable from each other.
• some parts are very easy (first and last), but some are very hard (getting grenade). you should try to make them all equally difficult.
• you use repetition in parts which is perceived as lazy mapping, you should never really copy and paste any structure while mapping.
• your map is very short, way too short. you want the player to feel accomplished when they finish your map, but here they will be disappointed that it was so short.
• you never want the player to unnecessarily wait 3 seconds for freeze to end, so put unfreeze into the totele tiles and at places where it makes sense.
• you have that element of randomness (2 tele tiles) which you should not really do. letting people guess is not gameplay, just a distraction.

said, try to gain more experience by playing more maps. by playing you will see what's fun and just works as a part. good luck!

Maybe someday it will be good map

Hi all im created parts of easy_solo

ok

remember your first maps

I remember my 1 one it was tight and i had to learn the editor myself

Now you have 10 tutorials on youtube

I remeber my 1st map

Jaonimate

My first aparrently got released

tutorials like "how to use editor" aren't "good maps" tutorials

i had seen only one tutorial about good mapping practices

...3 years ago, but btw

dont play multimap and epix and you wont map like that

don't play [SI] maps

i long time ago wanted to create tutorial , but i haven't map released so i thinked if i don't have released maps , what i can tell to someone if i don't have released any maps

SKY IVLAND was one map but hitomi and deen decided to make them into seperate maps

Bro I've Found 1 And I plan To Make A Very Bare Bones Tutorial Myself

and the only 1 that I can Find Is Outdated
