    So as many of Forgehubs members are I'm working on a submission for Bungies Forgetacular Contest, and I'm almost done. Its by far my best map, but not the best submission. Only problem is that I cant finish it. I'm down to 2 Bridges/Platforms like 9 Decorative and something around 15 Building Blocks. This wouldnt be a problem if I was done or close to done but I still need to add the walls for most map; its only going to be walled on the outside, the inside is fairly open. And I still need to finish connecting both Red and Blue bases to the upper middle of the map. Can anyone look at my screenshots and give me ideas of what to take out or how to wall off sections, because I have no more ideas left in my head and I've looked at easily another 400 maps for ideas on how to wall it off.

    A veiw from the top of the map, how it got its name.

    The side balconies, there are two of these one on each side of the map. Idea from Progenitor by iTz Fuzzywig.

    [​IMG]
    How the balconies connect to the rest of the map. And the shotgun spawn for both sides of the map. (in the tunnel thing made from brace tunnels that runs under the bridge)

    [​IMG]
    The Lower Middle part of the map, connects the two sides half.

    [​IMG]
    The Upper Middle part of the map. It corrently connects to both balconies and I want it to connect to both Red and Blue base.

    How the Upper Middle connects to the Balconies

    And a view of Blue base, one of the major areas that is in need of a wall. Red Base looks exactly the same.

    Just start taking away unneccessary aesthetic pieces. Gameplay>Aesthetics. After you have the basic map completely finished is when you start making it look pretty.

    Or you might want to redesign to be a bit smaller but keep all the aesthetic touches because right now it's looking quite sexy. Those rounded parts look sick

    Thanks man. Yea the first one took like an hour to get right and theres this random gap in the floor i'm trying to fix and it makes no sence because all the angels are exactly recipritcal like they need to be. But i'm Thinking about makeing the entire inside pretty much unwalled so it gives it a more open feeling and you don't feel like your inside a building, then walling off most of the outside so you can't fall off there and so if you do you won't be able to see peices sticking out that I didn't want shown. Any ideas on what to take out because I'm looking at it and the only idea I would have is make it smaller which is going to be hard because its pretty close to as small as it can get.
