map looks unskipable

I.K.U 07/28/2022 8:52 PM

release fast 😎

Steinchen 07/28/2022 8:53 PM

Would be released but timecp missing

YoDa 07/30/2022 3:13 AM

Hmm, I hadn't imagined these skips, I'll try to fix them

thank u

louis 08/03/2022 6:30 PM

some of the parts were not bad but i don't understand the complicated pathing

louis 08/03/2022 6:30 PM

some of it seems kinda unnecessary,

louis 08/03/2022 6:31 PM
louis 08/03/2022 6:31 PM

like why is there a gap here

louis 08/03/2022 6:31 PM
  • the moves themselves are a little mundane, generally just a few nades or a simple laser
YoDa 08/04/2022 3:39 PM

yes, I understand, my idea was it's a map with easy movements, but that the player has to think about the way

I had put it here because there was a skip in this part, but I fixed it and now I see that it's really unnecessary

MTJ 08/06/2022 4:55 AM

idk if this is a skip xd

Ninjed 08/06/2022 7:18 AM

Amazing map

YoDa 08/06/2022 3:50 PM

yes, it's a skip, i'll fix it, thanks

YoDa 09/11/2022 5:45 PM

how is the map review going?

FJP 09/11/2022 7:06 PM

this should go down to the bottom

FJP 09/11/2022 7:06 PM
FJP 09/11/2022 7:09 PM

i think the indented freeze would look better if it was just filled up all the way

FJP 09/11/2022 7:09 PM

instead of rounded

FJP 09/11/2022 7:16 PM

start is deceptive. makes it seem like you are supposed to be going underneath the switch instead of going through it. Why not just fill the whole line?

FJP 09/11/2022 7:21 PM

cool map, but I agree with louis in that some of that moves could be more interesting, and it could be done relatively easily without changing the concept of the map. Also slap some parallax on that background for +10 design

YoDa 09/13/2022 12:14 AM

idk, i like this

YoDa 09/13/2022 12:22 AM

I will send the proposed changes, but I can think about how to improve the gameplay, if you have ideas pls send me

Do you think there's a chance of having it released?

louis 09/28/2022 5:01 PM

its an interesting map but im not sure if it is good enough for a rls

louis 09/28/2022 5:02 PM

if you make flow better as well as remove some of the clutter with shields/weapons/special tiles then its possible

YoDa 09/28/2022 9:07 PM

ok i'll see what i can do

Pipou 09/28/2022 10:50 PM

Why is it called Koala, it looks like the corridors of the inside of a prison πŸ˜‚

Pipou 09/28/2022 10:52 PM

Improve the visibility of the switches

Pipou 09/28/2022 10:53 PM

it's very hard to find the matching switches

Pipou 09/28/2022 10:53 PM

Add connectors, or bigger numbers, or colors

Pipou 09/28/2022 10:55 PM

Also, you might as well want to add koalas, a forest of bamboos and other plants

Pipou 09/28/2022 10:56 PM

$waiting

YoDa 09/28/2022 11:21 PM

idk i just like the name xD

YoDa 09/28/2022 11:22 PM

ok i will do it

Pipou 09/28/2022 11:24 PM

πŸ‘

YoDa 09/30/2022 9:33 PM

I would like to change the map name, how do I do that?

Pipou 09/30/2022 9:42 PM

You can ask and we'll do it πŸ˜„

YoDa 09/30/2022 10:06 PM

ok, so change the map name to "Going back to the start", please

Pipou 09/30/2022 10:17 PM

Rename the .map as well

@YoDa
Pipou 09/30/2022 11:46 PM
Pipou 09/30/2022 11:47 PM

The map can't be found on the test server

Pipou 09/30/2022 11:50 PM

Is it 1 or 2 ?

Pipou 09/30/2022 11:55 PM

The gameplay needs to be tested

Pipou 10/01/2022 12:50 AM

Your map can be cheated by multiple ways

FJP 10/01/2022 1:18 AM

there's jetpack and infinite jump off tiles so I don't think either of those skips works

FJP 10/01/2022 1:20 AM

the original name was "koala"

Pipou 10/01/2022 1:20 AM

They work, I have the demos

FJP 10/01/2022 1:21 AM

how do they work if there is jetpack off tiles

FJP 10/01/2022 1:21 AM

maybe the version removed them?

FJP 10/01/2022 1:21 AM

its shown in your screenshot above

Pipou 10/01/2022 1:22 AM

It says 1 at switch 2 and 2 at switch 1

Pipou 10/01/2022 1:22 AM

Even tired I can read that xd

FJP 10/01/2022 1:23 AM

no I'm showing the jetpack off tiles

FJP 10/01/2022 1:23 AM
Pipou 10/01/2022 1:23 AM

So what, just walk πŸ˜„

Pipou 10/01/2022 1:23 AM

And then go to the finish line

FJP 10/01/2022 1:24 AM

how? am i missing something

FJP 10/01/2022 1:24 AM
Pipou 10/01/2022 1:25 AM

laser, jetpack, rocket go to the end

Pipou 10/01/2022 1:25 AM

or skip the infinite jump, rocket, go to the end

Pipou 10/01/2022 1:26 AM
FJP 10/01/2022 1:29 AM

oh i was on a different versions

Pipou 10/01/2022 1:29 AM

😌

FJP 10/01/2022 1:36 AM

Also is it possible to phase through the stoppers at the beginning? with jetpack speed?

FJP 10/01/2022 1:36 AM

it seems really close to possible but i haven't gotten it yet

YoDa 10/01/2022 3:39 AM
@Pipou

I also didn't understand the skip with the jetpack

YoDa 10/01/2022 3:40 AM

I fixed the other

YoDa 10/01/2022 3:40 AM
YoDa 10/01/2022 3:42 AM

i fixed the switch problem too

MTJ 10/01/2022 4:15 AM

looks like a skip

Pipou 10/01/2022 9:28 AM
Pipou 10/01/2022 9:29 AM

Please pay attention when you are mapping, I'm doing more work on your map than you are and yet it's short

Pipou 10/01/2022 9:30 AM

$decline

YoDa 10/01/2022 3:15 PM

this was an error of my own mind

YoDa 10/01/2022 3:17 PM

thanks for helping

@Pipou

, unfortunately decline, thought this would be released

Pipou 10/01/2022 3:44 PM

Repost it when it's bug free and not cheatable

YoDa 10/03/2022 10:10 PM
YoDa 10/03/2022 10:10 PM

can i send it here or do i have to send it in

#πŸ“¬submit-maps

?

Pipou 10/03/2022 10:12 PM

You can send it here

YoDa 10/03/2022 11:48 PM

I sent it in the file above

Pipou 10/04/2022 12:20 AM

$reset

Pipou 10/04/2022 4:25 PM

What's switch 1 for ? You deactivate it right at the start

Pipou 10/04/2022 4:26 PM

The unfreeze at the top is not fully marked

Pipou 10/04/2022 4:27 PM

Switch not marked

Pipou 10/04/2022 4:27 PM

$waiting

YoDa 10/04/2022 11:38 PM

now thinking about it, you don't need that switch

YoDa 10/04/2022 11:47 PM
Pipou 10/05/2022 5:16 PM

Still unmarked

Pipou 10/05/2022 5:16 PM

That is annoying

Pipou 10/05/2022 5:17 PM

The map is too short, uses too many entities for nothing, it's not even a puzzle

Pipou 10/05/2022 5:21 PM

I'd suggest you start anew, with a clean and interesting gameplay

Pipou 10/05/2022 5:21 PM

And please test your maps

Pipou 10/05/2022 5:22 PM
