kinda annoying to play since you have to rls early for unfreeze

louis.place 03/08/2025 6:02 PM

not good to have faily parts in solo like this

louis.place 03/08/2025 6:02 PM

especially since it might be easy to accidentally fall in there after holding A

louis.place 03/08/2025 6:02 PM

you have to be careful of fails like this and prevent them

louis.place 03/08/2025 6:03 PM

annoying tele placement since sometimes you go too far into the < tele

louis.place 03/08/2025 6:03 PM

teles should usually teleport nearby, this is a little bit of a reach (tele 4 goes to the "previous" part >)

wmiezz 03/08/2025 6:04 PM

novice players cant do this

louis.place 03/08/2025 6:05 PM

ending is definitely a bit too faily / difficult

louis.place 03/08/2025 6:05 PM

the map could use some balancing changes, it has some much harder parts near the end (including the final part)

louis.place 03/08/2025 6:05 PM

putting switches where people can't see what it does is a little misleading and confusing for a lot of players

wmiezz 03/08/2025 6:06 PM

u mean whole this area?

louis.place 03/08/2025 6:06 PM

ye, that whole area is a bit harder than the rest

louis.place 03/08/2025 6:06 PM

map structure is cool and refreshing, it's nice to see a map that doesn't just go left to right, but u really need to work on the structure and coherence of the parts

wmiezz 03/08/2025 6:06 PM

idk what can i do for this part

louis.place 03/08/2025 6:09 PM

u should plan more about the spacing around your parts

louis.place 03/08/2025 6:09 PM

for example if a guy jumps up to that point, both hooks to get him out are really awkward

louis.place 03/08/2025 6:09 PM

even though jumping to that point might make the most sense, the player is punished as now the top guy has to do an awkward hook

louis.place 03/08/2025 6:09 PM

stuff like this is easily cheatable even with the stopper

wmiezz 03/08/2025 6:10 PM

speedup?

louis.place 03/08/2025 6:10 PM

you should force parts like this in other ways rather than the classic "1 > < 2" way

louis.place 03/08/2025 6:10 PM

ye speedup*

louis.place 03/08/2025 6:10 PM

no reason to give grenade for this part since you don't even need grenade to finish it

wmiezz 03/08/2025 6:10 PM
wmiezz 03/08/2025 6:11 PM

ah

wmiezz 03/08/2025 6:11 PM

its just one part

wmiezz 03/08/2025 6:11 PM

it doesnt count, right

louis.place 03/08/2025 6:11 PM

ye, i mean it's kinda lame to just give grenade for one forced part wherre u just nade them

louis.place 03/08/2025 6:11 PM

i would just not give grenade at all, seems kinda useless here

wmiezz 03/08/2025 6:11 PM

i dont understand the tele4 thing

louis.place 03/08/2025 6:11 PM

its just better to put totele closer to from-tele

louis.place 03/08/2025 6:12 PM

see, i'm on default zoom (Which a lot of novices will be on), if I fail and drop the dummy in the tele here they spawn offscreen

louis.place 03/08/2025 6:12 PM

the map needs a lot of rework for each individual parts, try to focus on balancing and more 'intuitive' gameplay, but i like the general structure and pathing of it

louis.place 03/08/2025 6:13 PM

i'm gonna decline cause it needs big reworks, feel free to resubmit when you think you've fixed it all
