Firstly, I'm new here so if my post is wrong please let me know. Anywho... A few days ago i was shown "re on carnation" by a friend, and have since fallen in love with puzzle maps... so much so that i downloaded loads, and then decided to make my own. My first few were not good at all, but then i came up with what i thought was an good idea. Most of the puzzles i have seen are rooms with teleporters to other rooms, with no particular "atmosphere" or "feel" i guess. I decided to make a map that is all inside one building, where most of the puzzle can be seen at once. From this idea the "Tower of Power" was born (shotguns on ascension anyone?). Anyway enough text here's the map... Download Map Download Gametype I think it is difficult enough, but not so difficult that you will be walking around the same room for hours on end. However there are some puzzles i have never seen before, so you if you are experienced at puzzles, you might see a few new things . However the main point of this map is the idea and the atmosphere... but if its popular, i may make a sequel that is even more difficult I have used no budget glitch, but there are still 10 different stages, each with a long and interesting puzzle to solve... Here are pictures and some "clues" to help you if you get stuck Wow... Look at that tower. But the end is just out there! That open box is too high for me to jump to... isn't it? Turrets can shoot fusion coils too you know. Now what is so interesting about that wall you are looking at? Bridges that go up... that can't be right. Do i spy a receiver node through that shield door? Down there looks similar, so does there, so does over there! It's a long way down, and up... What's with all the long ways up? Finally, a mongoose, just what i've needed all along :S. The gametype is required to play, and it is only for one person . Enjoy
few days ago i was shown "re on carnation" a few days ago by a friend,?? anyways, the map looks ok, kind of sloppy, but that doesnt really matter for a puzzle map, could use some more screenshots though. 3/5 until i play,cause its hard to judge puzzle maps from pix ps. FIRST real POST !1!o3292 noobery
I'm not a huge fan of puzzle maps, but this looks alright. Although it does look a bit like "shoot fusion coil to unblock teleporter". Amirite?
erm... actually no . There is only one puzzle that involves unblocking a teleporter, the fusion coil you see in the picture isnt a puzzle, its a checkpoint, so i wanted it to be obvoius... the rest of it isn't stuff like that at all. Although there also is one instance of turret clipping but i tried to make it obvious cos its not meant to be a puzzle, just something that you can do once youve done something else, but couldn't do originally... if that makes sense lol . But it's my first map so don't judge it toooo harshly
Quite nice puzzle although it is a bit too hard for me, but that may be just because I am new to puzzles, I have only done 5. There's a few thing that I have come across in the puzzle that I haven't seen anywhere else. From what I have completed so far its a good puzzle. Btw there isn't much shooting the barrels to unblock teleporters, only one I think. And the turret clipping isn't to annoying as it is quite obvious where they are from your hints and pictures. So far, I have got past the second turret. I am gonna have another go at completing the rest of the puzzle, hopefully I wont need any help. Overall I would give it a 4/5.
I played it and beat it with Jesus. Thanks for clearing that part up for us. Overall it's a great map. There is only 1 clip that I can think of. It's original and creative, and that is something I rarely say about puzzle maps. I had fun playing it. It wasn't that hard once you get the hang of it. You did use one or two things from other puzzle maps but mainly it was new. I do like your check point, I thought that was cool how you did that. I do wish the custom power up lasted longer. It was ok though. This is an incredible map considering you just started making puzzles. It was well put together and functioned great. In my opinion you should keep making puzzle maps and keep being creative. On another note, WTF is up with this banned guy going around posting random crap? He didn't even play the map.
Wow. FINALLY, a good puzzle map since Rack on Tours. GMF and I had a lot of fun trying to solve the puzzle. Naturally being a critic, the one thing I would have done was at least marked the turret clip. But other than that, you did a very good job and we look forward to playing your next puzzle. We only found one small break, which didn't make much of a difference anyway. 8.5/10.
hey aftershock i tryed to download the gametype but it doesnt work so if u could somehow get me the gametype that would b great
well i am alone most of the time can anyone recomend puzzle maps i will download and then try i will get back to you
If you want better puzzle maps, try my other ones... this one isn't very good compared to them They are "Shadow Spire" and "Infamy" and you can find them in my file share. I'd also recommend trying out BuddhaCrane's, they're my favourites. P.S I am releasing another one very very soon, just need to finish testing it, and it will be AWESOME!
This is one of the few puzzle maps thatvhave actually stumped in some parts, i finished it eventually *cough* 32 minutes *cough* Pro *cough*
