I like that you try to create a new gameplay experience, we really need that. Anyway, these mechanics also need proper gameplay and parts to work. The parts here are mostly basic and not really new, many of them would also work without the weapon-tele. It is a similar problem as in Impetuous which also had a lack of actual gameplay.

The entire point of the weapon tele is to force the player to do usual laser parts in an unusual way, laser is and will always be laser.

How you implemented it it's not really that much of a new concept. There are other maps that force certain laser angles in other ways. Some parts also just force angles that you would've used anyway. Having it all faily is a bad way of making the map "not finishable for everyone in 5mins".

So after all the map isn't that special (besides the cool animations :P) and not worth to release.
It would be cool to see the weapon blocker stuff in a map that benefits more from it and that isn't that faily. I'd suggest to make use of other features as well then to make it more exciting :)

Are you kidding me? There are two new parts in the map as well as lasers I don't typically see in other maps. The map is faily, but I made sure it's finishable. If the map "didn't benefit from weapon blockers" it wouldn't even resemble what the map is now, because they are the main focus of the map. I used simple laser angles for parts I thought would be too hard if they had a more tricky laser. Please come up with a better excuse to decline...

Still waiting for a legitimate reason to have this map declined...

So if there are other maps that have a simillar feature does that make this map any less good?
Am I not allowed to map faily maps?
Am I forced to map with more features than I want to?
I have explained why some lasers have basic angles, and that there are new parts as well as uncommon ways to laser.
It would be great if someone actually played the map and not skimmed over it with 'super' and said "Gay map, decline".
