I am not really sure about this map
the idea about the "you only have x seconds to do the part" is good and i really respect the work/thoughts you put in this,
but the gameplay is not really good, you didn't do many parts and it doesn't really feel like finishing the map after playing this.
I didn't like to fail, since it was just dumb to repeat the done parts, because i needed too many tries for 1 part (it would rather make me play another map instead of retrying this).

I would like to hear some more opinions about this, i am sorry for your waiting time.

Tested the map.

Like Welf im not sure about the release of this map.

The Positive Feedback:
-The idea of this map is creativ.
-The graphic design is okay.
-The parts are good connected.

All in all i want to say that I like the idea of this map.

Lets Come to the negative Feedback:
-The balance of this map is not good.
-The time for doing the part is in my opinion to short.
-The map is short

All in all I want to say, the parts you have choosen, have are unbalanced and the time for doing a Part are to short/long.

Lets Start with the Balance of this map.

1.I want to say that the first both parts are to easier to beat, as the other parts.

2.The difficult of this map goes rapidly hard.

Just 1 example:
-The part where you have to Hook on the ground, shoot with grenade up trough a between a freeze wall and Try to land on a tight platform [...]

-The part where you have to shoot with grenade in the tele, jump in the freeze and the grenade explodes in the right time, to get through,
should be easier to beat.

All in all I want to say you should make the parts easier/ make the first 2 parts a bit harder.

Now i want to talk about the timer about the map.

1.I really enjoy the idea: you have several trys to do a part, if the times runs out, you lose...but...

2.The timer is to short...
You should be fear and give the People more time to pass the part.

All in all I want to say make the timer a bit slower.

The last point is the lenght for this map.

The map is be passed in 5-6 parts,
but the balance of this map is fitting with the lenght of this map, but it could have more parts.

All in all I want to say that the map lenght is okay, but the re could be some more parts.

I hope you understand, why im not sure if the map should be released or not.
Your Tee,

Honestly, it's not bad for your first map. It has okay design and a good idea. But most of the parts aren't very good, and it is really short and sometimes annoying. I don't know if you should rework this map (since I find it easier to just make a new map) because I don't think it can be released as it is.
Good try Sayned :)

but sadly, I think archive.
i exist
so do you

the idea is very nice but as said it can get quite annoying for many players, basically it forces you to "speedrun" the map and many people wouldn't like that..
also it's a dummy map but it's actually solo, that would also be a problem, imo
moving to archive for now, sorry; you could maybe rework the concept or try something easier with it!
