solitude: a state of seclusion or isolation
This is the first and most likely last mappack I'll make for you gentlemen and select ladies. I wish I could still say that I like making maps, but it was quite a struggle to make these. There are thirty* maps in this pack, and you should play them in the correct order to get the most out of the pack. Six of are collaborations with other mappers, five are Metanet-inspired, and there is one five minute map. All the rest are what I consider excellent maps. But don't just take my word for it:
- Inspired :: Eyeglasses and Spyglasses (feat. squibbles)
"Tiles: Awesome. Gameplay: Stellar. Mat: Good Looking. Inspired: Well Cool."
- Techno :: Turbulence! Another Tale of Trigonometry
"It is really great if you love raw action and a perfected use of a drone and rocket combo."
- romaniac :: receding airline
"Metanet never did anything as cool as that with thwumps."
- Meta_Ing :: Very Nefarious
"Going for the gold is fun and challenging, the chainguns are placed well but not too overpowering, and it's flowy."
- romaniac :: spin me around
"Awesomely done. Just like Metanet, but with a twist. (Pun intended.)"
- Evil_Bob :: Out After Curfew
"It's a compactly constructed map. It's not super difficult and relatively linear but that's not a bad thing."
- incluye :: ...but you can win this one
"<3. I like the propulsion."
I don't have much else to say because I'd just be wasting your precious playing time. I hope that you like them.

This is a cool mix of maps. you can do a lot of different styles and combined with the guest authors each map felt completely new. Some were really neat and some were kinda bad but i had fun all in all
Ocean Smoke, Out After Curfew, Solow and The New King Of The Forest were my favorites

Very!
You are having a 4/5 (the consistent maps)! Many likings of the spudzalot collab, and of Receding Skyline. Yes!

Liked a bunch of these, played the whole thing, which is a rarity for me.
So I started listing the maps I really enjoyed here, but it was the majority, so I stopped. Great job!

Comment:"I'll start by explaining why I didn't review it all at once. I didn't review them all at once cause... I didn't felt like it. The same simple reasoning goes for the un-reviewed maps.
Resuming all this, this is being a great mappack. "

I'm sorry, no pwetty graphics this time. Just plain'ol text!
O : VERY NEFARIOUS :oooo
Hahahahaha. Okay. Here I am. This map is quite the cool
looking one, although I am not so sure about how those 3/4
moons blend in with the rest of the design. I'm not very
fond of chainguns, as you may already know, so I may be a
little biased against this map, and I have to say
gold-catching was starting to be a little boring at the
end.
Imma give it a 3.5/5.
P :: (impakt) vs. [resystance] >_>
I'm going to say it right away. It's one of the worse to
me. Uninspiring tileset and a bunch of jump pads and gold
around. But I'd be lying if I said it wasn't fun at all,
though! It's not an horrible map. Just subpar with the
rest of the mappack.
2/5
Q :: Kassacostello
LOL IZT AN MAAZING MAP IMEEN TSO COOL U EEVN PUT GULD (rofl!!!!1) on the boing boings!!!!!!X::X:X:D:DDDD
XO/XO
R :: spin me around
OH LOOK! A GENERIC MAP!
WHY AM I SO ENRAGED THAT THIS GENERIC MAP IS ACTUALLY NOT A BAD MAP OH WHYYY
3/5
S :: Half Moon Rune
This map's got character. It also has got almost zero gameplay :<<
2.5/5
T :: What Did You Say? :DDD
I SAID: IT'S A GREAT MAP!
I liked it. Smoothly one runs through it! Although it looks somewhat boring!
4/5
U :: Fisherman Joe's Scurvy Scurry
This is probably one of the best of the pack. It's got style aaaaaaaaaaaand envolving gameplay.
5/5
v :: My Majesty's Palace
Ugh.
1.5/5
X :: TRUE
THIS MAP IS LYING. ITS FALSE CAUSE I LIKE IT
3.5/5
