My first mappack, It has 4 episodes and 20 levels total. I would really like feedback, I am counting on making another mappack soon.

Inspired by Yungerkid's 'Shield of Yungerkid' mappack.

Thanks to Eganic and RadiumFalcon for playtesting.

Works best in userlevels.

*downloads* I can only wish for the best. ^^

Edit: nice job on these! Oh, and when putting maps in userlevels you have to have "&userdata=" before all the level data.

I'd suggest submitting #00-4 to NUMA to promote its highscorability.
demo for future reference.

some other NUMA possibilities:
  • 01-4 - brings back the symmetery-coated maps of the good old days.
    agd

  • 02-3 - the drones could make for some cool dodges
    agd

  • 02-4 - the agd/speedrunners will go crazy
    agd

  • 03-1 - the laser is quite annoying, in a good way
    agd

  • 03-3 - mines needed, otherwise straightforward
    agd

  • 03-4 - once again, great for higscoring
    agd

one of my biggest recommendations for you is to jazz up your tilesets. they left a sour taste on my screen. in the end, you get a 3.5 out of 5. grats.

O_o nice presentation.

special mentions: 00-03, 00-04, 03-00, 03-01, 03-03, 03-04.

these levels were significantly better than the ones you submit to numa lol. i like the simplicity and the focus on single motifs. good job!

on Clutterment, the door was not necessary. there were probably too many drones in Scan. too hard to get up to the upper level of Flight of the Eagle.

glad to have inspired you!

Wow.

This pack just brings me back to playing it every time! Seriously, you did a great job on it!
I also agree with RF; Wumbology is suprisingly cool to me. For some reason I like the doors.
Great job on the mappack overall!

Amazing episodic pack. Couple minor object consistency errors, but overall a fantastic pack.

Being Blizz-approved is like....like....
Like beating MTI after multiple tries.
It's that kind of feeling of accomplishment.

You guys have no idea what it feels like.

Also, excellent map pack. Having played it, I far prefer it over both Shield and Crescor's recent series, so kudos to you. Userleveled, and a high 4 for the overall pack. We should do a collab sometime? See my thread for details.

Allgolded. Really nice use of a variety of enemies, and wonderful zap-drone usage on a couple maps. Great cohesiveness. ++

All golded too, Very, very, cool mappack.
You've got my high 4.
It's one of the few packs that I played through. One of the 4, maybe 5, actually.
