    Wow looks pretty fun. I love the maps where is has a ring around the level and a bottom stage . I really like the power ups that make it fun to get to. The interlocking could use some work, however the geomerging was great.4.5/5!

    Sweet map man. Although it only looks good for 1v1 or 2v2, the gameplay looks sick and you design and layout is very good. Neat interlocking too. Good job. I suggest making a v2 and make it bigger.

    I think the map is very small, but 2 vs 2 or 1 vs 1 games should be good, the interlocking is great, though the geo-merged boxes are a bit shave, just a bit though.

    I think that the map should at least be a bit bigger, try making side-halls, cause you have almost no ways across but through the middle, so I think grenade spamming would be a problem, also make use of higher level, jumping fights are awesome to do and I think that most players enjoy them, so do I, good luck on your v2.

    This map is very well made! The interlocking and geomerging are clean and I see no bumps :). The powerups are a nice touch, adding to the awesome aesthetics. The layout looks simple but fun for 1v1 or 2v2. The bridges should add to the gameplay as well :0

    I really like the looks of this map, can't wait to play!

    ok first of all i think you have a great layout working here. One thing you should and i really mean SHOULD change is how the overshield gives you 4 shields. Thats kinda a turnoff on the gameplay unless you made it for only juggernaut or something which i highly doubt. In other words i think you have a very nice map here and you should do a little more work on the placement of spawns,weapons, and definetly the OS. Good Job on the map though.

    Thanks for the compliment about the layout. I've tested the map several times, and found the weapons to be balanced. But spawns are my weakness.


    One thing: The white powerup does NOT give you 4X Overshields. That was just the gametype we were playing. The powerup gives you regular overshields at first, and then invisiblity later on.

    This map looks ok, but you could have interlocked it way more. Look at the last pic: You can look between the boxes on the left. And I think adding more "scenery" to the map would make it more interesting.
