Map 🐞:

advancedexploits 07/11/2025 12:04 PM

what?

catseyenebulous 07/11/2025 12:04 PM

I think this is the largest map file I've seen so far by a great margin.

advancedexploits 07/11/2025 12:04 PM

its because of the musics

catseyenebulous 07/11/2025 12:05 PM

I bet you could compress it a lot but it doesn't really serve any purpose so why would you add it?

advancedexploits 07/11/2025 12:06 PM

idk because i like music

advancedexploits 07/11/2025 12:06 PM

catseyenebulous 07/11/2025 12:08 PM

catseyenebulous 07/11/2025 12:11 PM

Right here.

advancedexploits 07/11/2025 12:12 PM

ok thanks for your help

catseyenebulous 07/11/2025 12:12 PM

The file size isn't acceptable though. My game already crashed once trying to load it. :)

advancedexploits 07/11/2025 12:12 PM

nixuslegendary 07/11/2025 12:54 PM

advancedexploits 07/11/2025 12:58 PM

advancedexploits 07/11/2025 12:58 PM

is that problem? or is it ok?

nixuslegendary 07/11/2025 1:00 PM

We usually send the map completely ready

catseyenebulous 07/11/2025 1:00 PM

So after a quick look nothing really stood out to me. ^^' The map is pretty short and the parts are not great so I'm afraid this is a decline.

Some more feedback provided in combination with the screenshots:

  1. Your map doesn't consist of actual hard parts or tricks but its difficulty comes from the little space you provide in a lot of places. You shouldn't restrict the players movement too much and let them play more naturally.
  2. Forcing parts with special tiles isn't good practice. You also left the blockers unmarked.
  3. This looks like it could be interesting but there is nothing going on. Just a basic drag that looks doable even for novice players. :P
  4. You forgot freeze above. (Did you test your map?)
  5. You need to get laser just for that? You shouldn't use weapons if you need them for just one thing.
      1. It felt like every second part was trying to get through edge parts. (You overused them in my opinion.)

You should scale the layers to fit your maps size. It's not a big issue but still bad practice to leave it 10x as big as the actual map. :)

catseyenebulous 07/11/2025 1:03 PM

It doesn't have to be perfect and I think the good bot will optimize it but try to at least get close to the actual size.

:3

advancedexploits 07/11/2025 1:03 PM

advancedexploits 07/11/2025 1:03 PM

@catseyenebulous

can i update my map here or i have to upload it at

#📬submit-maps

again?

catseyenebulous 07/11/2025 1:05 PM

I recommend to start a new map and take a look at recently released maps in the same difficulty that you want to map. (Don't copy though)

advancedexploits 07/11/2025 1:06 PM

ok thanks

catseyenebulous 07/11/2025 1:07 PM

If this channel is still there you can upload here but a good map takes a long time. :)
