Safe Place (Solo)

Post by Blue »

Here is my new map "SafePlace".

It's a rather short Solo map but quite difficult.
I don't know if it should be released. Give me some feedback please :D!

OK -
Picture 1 - Picture 4 fixed. Except the color of the background, because i like the color and dont really want to change it.
Picture 5 - Picture 6 fixed. I made that jump a bit easier by adding a hookable tile.
Picture 7 - When you jump up to that platform after the "ultra hard" jump, you get dragged by the laser hook into freeze.
When you dont want die, you have to either jump at the right moment to get down or hook at the right moment down so the laser can't drag you into freeze.
Picture 8 fixed.

Hey I fixed some graphical issues for you, ok?
I made sunrays rotate a bit slower (to make it less annoying)
Made layers smaller - better for server, loading & saving the map, of course didn't cut anything)
Didn't change background color as you wished, but I would suggest it too anyway (or it could be slightly transperent to make it more interesting, or main wall could be darker)
Fixed missing corner in the background + cleaned it up a bit as you can see with 50% entities
Fixed freeze shadows behind the wall (quite many were missing and sometimes too many, makes no sense to screenshot every place)

Sent you fixed version per PM, if you are not happy with any of my changes, we can change it back, but I hope you are ok with it.

You can set some layers HD if you want.
I think Solo 4*
It should be "Safe Place" or "SafePlace"?

Here the map (already uploaded on test server):

Thank you Lady Saavik for fixing that several issues.

I fixed everything you showed in your screenshots.
I dont think that its possible to do that cheat you mentioned, but i made it 100% impossible anyway.
The main wall is now slightly darker.

I would like the map name to be "Safe Place".
But if there are any problems with whitespaces, "SafePlace" is also ok.

I found a shortcut where you could cheat 50% of the map and keep jetpack - Fixed it

and what's the problem?
I said it needs last test, map is short, close to release to make you test it
and you don't fking care
you can release and archive this map soon
and mapper waited 18 days, after my test one week
because what? because mapper is not famous?

We don't have many active testers these days, so the mappers have to wait.
If you want the map to be released, do a last test and write 'ready for release'. Instead of doing a last test, you are complaining why nobody is doing a last test?
(if you already tested the map, the last test is easier for you than for me)

@Lady Saavik, this map is too hard for most of testers, i`m even not talking about trials. As many ppl(probably) I`m coming to test it weak ago, but parts is too hard for me, so I just leave it. But in this situation I`m going to test hard for me map, so results:
Hard to play with this background, this map is forcing most of ppl to play with entities, imo maps like this should be
fixed/not released, becouse of this reason.Aaand:
