Skyward Shoe

Ok, I've been working on S's redesign between my hours of homework today, and I just finished it. I think it'll pretty much fix all the problems anyone had with the map without changing it too much.

Hurry up already. I'll show you the re-worked S design once I finish it, assuming I ever make it through this day...

Yes, that was me who tagged Barky with Flying Shoe IHR. Actually, all of those tags are mine except the Soul one. I think I'll tag it with hot pizza as well.

I also like your hint about future ideas taking shape ;)

I gave up already. He's very convinced of his own correctness which I think is funny, because he's clearly not played even one of those maps. I like how he said "I'm done arguing" and then kept right on arguing... Anyway, thanks and I hope I at least make the final three this time. This is my third (I think?) FHF nomination so it would be nice to finally make the front page. I feel like I've had good word of mouth on this particular map but unfortunately, as bad luck would have it, several of the other nominees are friends of mine who I would usually think might vote for me, if not for their map getting nominated. That probably doesn't help my cause! :)

Embarcadero thread! Yeah! *simultaneous jump*

The Flying-Soul-Duck-Knizzle map pack shall conquer all!

You're not supposed to have an edited screenshot for a thumbnail, just a heads up. You can actually get an infraction for that.

Are you officially done with the TG? As in should I take you off the senior members list for the next recap?

My suggestions: Google Sketchup or MS Paint.

Paint is awesome and everybody knows it.

I look forward to your sloppily drawn, crappily-taken-a-picture-of conecept (yeah, conecept).

Sorry, I was just generalizing how paper drawings of map designs always appear on the compooter.

You should release barky tonight in celebration of Cargo Port's 3000th download.

I like thse ideas, although I am confused by what you said about phase 3. Elaborate/

Also, Cargo Port has 2,998 downloads!

I really like the idea of the spartan base being above the center. that way phase 1 can be more interesting, and the core wont go through the base in phase 3. It'll still be easier to move while it's in the center, but that will make the home stretch that much more epic and difficult. For phase 2, we'll have to be careful, but as long as the elites have easy enough access to either territory from their spawns and we balance everything right, it should work very well. Teleporters between spawns is a great idea. I would want some more verticality, but my Starcraft bananas are awesome.

Who needs creativity when we can all make the same mediocre, generic map over and over again?

I'm still working on the concept. I have the design about 50% done, bananas and all. I'll show you soonish, I think it could be very interesting. The scale will be rather off, and height variation will be very minor in the concept because that's how Starcraft is.

Ok it's public

I found it!

I'm messing around with making a concept in the SC2 editor, and I've had an idea. What if you started out in more or less the center of the map, and the map expanded from there? You'll have to see my design for it to really make sense, but that would allow us to really expand the map, rather than move from one area to the next. I'll show you tomorrow. Someone took my smiley face ball out of the mini wine glass it was sitting in, and I need to find it.
