I got another question: What do you mean by not changing drone paths?
Not limiting the drones by tiles seems strange to me, so I reckon you mean not changing their code from e.g. "follow surface" to "random"?

Whatever drone paths you are given, you are stuck with. Placing tiles to force the drones into a certain path is fine, but deleting the drone and replacing it with a differently-algorithm'd one is not.

Also, shouldn't these maps be tagged retile2, southpaw?

To clear up the questions previously asked in this thread.

1. You are not allowed to change the drone-pathing, meaning you are not allowed to change the code. If you are given a drone with a Q-pathing you are not allowed to change it to a W-pathing.

2. All ReTile submissions are supposed to be posted here as either a link to a NUMA map or in

hello there,

i have no idea if you still accept contestants, if so, i would love to join. this contest would make a great re-entry for me into the art of mapping. does anyone remember me? probably not. anyway, i will send you 5 maps of mine just in case you have spare room for one more contestant.

I'd like to add a link to the original version, but how do I know what was the original map (the map I retiled)?

I think we weren't supposed to know the orig. map bcause he didn't want us to have any pre-concieved notions on what the actual map looked like.

At the end of the week I'll send out a PM containing the original map numbers which you should put in the description of your NUMA map. (If you submit to NUMA.)
I do not give out the map numbers until after because I want you to build something completely original. I think seeing how a map is built or playing the map before you retile it can influence how you end up building the map.

comments: There was much more to this map than there seemed at first. I liked that part the best. Unfortunately I found it hard to move and travel within. If you had made this a bit more... flowy? I probably would have enjoyed it much more. As it stands, moving through it is just choppy for me.

comments: To begin, the rocket dodging in this is supreme. Like a burrito supreme from Taco Bell 15 years ago (because trying to stomach Taco Bell these days doesn't happen like it used to). I found it a bit lackluster in terms of looks but the tiles were scarce and complimentary to the gameplay. Replay value is almost perfect. This is one of those maps I could spend 20 minutes playing over and over again, even if I've already completed it 3 or 4 times.

comments: A bit hard to move around in at times but the drone pathing and multiple routse in this shone through that. The lasers traveled and ran around so well and they always had some line of sight that would either kill you or freak you out enough to know they aren't playing around. Great map!

comments: It was really hectic at the bottom. In some ways I liked that but at times I felt that you could have blocked off that upper rocket from the mine section on the right, or had the floorguard stop a bit further away so that it was perilous to travel down there but not too difficult. The top could have used some work, like opening up the laser drone to that area.

comments: It was... not very good. I feel like in some cases the object set has a lot to do with the map but considering how many tile combinations you can come up with there were probably a lot of ways you could have made this more fun. Like sparse tiles up top so that if you miss your footing you fall to your death or something.

comments: I loved the lower left area when I had to make multiple perpendicular jumps to get to the gold. That was fantastic. The laser was great at the beginning and then become too overbearing near the end. Great job allowing the player to squeeze through that area at the end near the door so that one doesn't have to go all the way around.

fantastic puzzley use of floorguards and tiles combined. i liked the replayable value
in this due to the map being a lot more complex than it looked. didn't like the
gameplay much in the bottom sections. The top with the floorguard is definitely the
highlight.
+ 40 // 60

great use of cool looking tiles. they compliment lasers very well. i hated dying,
though. there was so much empty space starting over was a pain. nice map
+ 38// 60

el_devo // So Circular
+ 10// 30pts = gameplay
+ 2// 20pts = replay
+ 8// 10pts = aesthetics
so this had promise but it fell short. the section with the switch was boring without
any enemies and the chaingun was criminally leashed into that tiny bottom section
where it was basically toothless. tileset is that hip and trendy style today, though.
Also, there are no circles in So Circular.
+ 20// 60

OneSevenNine // whatever you do you do it for me
+ 25// 30pts = gameplay
+ 16// 20pts = replay
+ 6// 10pts = aesthetics
quick and dirty jumps keep the chainguns a major threat throughout the map. the jumps
were challenging and laid out so it didn't get tedious. the tileset is utilitarian,
but a few small details keep it from being boring. not even the unhinged doors in the
middle can bring down your score! nice!

Daikenkai // Denial of Service
+ 11// 30pts = gameplay
+ 10// 20pts = replay

the rockets ruined everything i ever tried to do, due (doo doo lol) to the bad

placement of most of the tiles. It was just awkwardly set up and it could have been

better

Life247 // Deadly Voo
+ 15// 30pts = gameplay
+ 5// 20pts = replay

this was a difficult set of objects seriously. Your attempts to make it cool with squeezes and stuff helped, like making poop shiny and gold-plated.

romaniac // Tsar Chasm
+ 25// 30pts = gameplay

this was not as bad as you made it seem. The gold and tiles worked well with the rockets.

lukesv // Romance in an Avalance

+ 1// 20pts = replay
+ 5// 10pts = aesthetics
well it was kind of neat but not very interesting and the tiles did not help the objects much

Seneschal // Minotaurtoise
+ 25// 30pts = gameplay
+ 15// 20pts = replay
+ 8// 10pts = aesthetics
this is wonderful. the tileset was great looking and the laggy chainguns still made the map frantic. nice job with a really hard object set!

Erik_Player // Wait, What Dream?
+ 21// 30pts = gameplay

Just an all-around solid map. Had great replay value. nice going!

the lasers interlocked nicely around the tiles and gold arrangements. It looks spazzy and great for the most part, barring some small details. Really solid and fun to play. sorry for forgetting you! D:
