I made a gameplay-check with my dummy.

I have to say: this map is much better than the first one. The parts are more creative and make more fun.:

I like the new design. It's more clear.


This map has still one problem: It's unbalanced.
The most parts are about 1-2 Stars Moderate. But then there is a 3-4 Star hammerfly. That doesn't match really good.

Another problem are missing teles. I show u 3 uncool things and 1 example u made very well.
screen1.png
screen1.png (449.84 KiB) Viewed 3108 times
You have to do a hammerfly that isn't easy. After this you have to go up. If you fail there you have to do the hammerfly again. That's really annoying. You could add a new tele where my tee stands.
screen2.png
screen2.png (493.69 KiB) Viewed 3108 times
If you fall down there. You will fall very very long. And it's very hard to get up again. Maybe add stoppers or teles here.
screen3.png
screen3.png (365.29 KiB) Viewed 3108 times
Same here: If you fail at the 2-tee-part (right), you have to do the solo (middle) again. Add a tele on the top.
(There is a hooktrough bug, too. But first we need a good gameplay before fixing these things.)
screen4.png
screen4.png (417.11 KiB) Viewed 3108 times
This is the good example:
The solo has a few parts. If you fail one, you don't have to do all parts again. That makes much more fun to play.
The little part on the left is normally hard for a 2 Stars map, but cause you can do much trys in short time it is good and makes fun.

-------------

Some minor things:
screen5.png
screen5.png (532.48 KiB) Viewed 3108 times
The part in the red rectangle should be removed or replaced.
The rest of the part makes fun.
screen6.png
screen6.png (449.32 KiB) Viewed 3108 times
Give it more space to the top. It's really tight there.
screen7.png
screen7.png (443.34 KiB) Viewed 3108 times
There are many weird blocks. It doesn't look very well if you play with entities. Fill all with game tiles or remove this few blocks.

-------------

To finish this:
screen8.png
screen8.png (467.79 KiB) Viewed 3108 times
A part wich i really like, cause you have 2 options here: You can use the walls for an easy but slowly hookfly or you make a free hookfly in the midddle.


You are on a good way. This version is much better, but there are still things that have to be improved. Keep working on it!

I tested it with Daer. Welf was in spec.

First of all: All bugs of the last test are fixed. That's good.

I think the 50% good gameplay were increased to 85% good gameplay.

-----

I want to start with a few cheats and bugs.
screen_01.png
screen_01.png (572.49 KiB) Viewed 3042 times
If there is a space of 2 blocks between shields it's possible to go trough them without loosing your weapons. Make 1 block spaces there.
(There is a snd part with the same cheat. Look for it.)
screen_02.png
screen_02.png (467.66 KiB) Viewed 3042 times
I think the screen says all you have to know.
screen_03.png
screen_03.png (483.59 KiB) Viewed 3042 times
I don't know if you want that you can hook from the top. If it is so you you dont have to fix it.
screen_04.png
screen_04.png (562.25 KiB) Viewed 3042 times
Remove the hooktrough-tiles in the red rectangle.

-----
screen_05.png
screen_05.png (597.39 KiB) Viewed 3042 times
If you play this part for the first time and don't use entities you will not know what to do cause you can't know that this are buttons. They look like doodads.

That are just boring Novice hookparts.
Remove or replace them.

At the first one you could make the part before just a little bit longer with an additional freeze.
At second one you could make harder hookparts or a short way to get up to the next part.

-----

Parts wich are cool but needs minor changes to make them better playable:
screen_08.png
screen_08.png (402.78 KiB) Viewed 3042 times
I don't like the solution with speedups. You could make switches with laser to save the dummy if you failed. Then you can't grenade him in the tele and it looks much more clean.
screen_09.png
screen_09.png (644.95 KiB) Viewed 3042 times
Make this tele to "From 2".
If you fail the last hook you have to do the whole part again. That's uncool. So change the number and the tee will get up and you can try the hook again.
screen_10.png
screen_10.png (592.3 KiB) Viewed 3042 times
Do the tele to the rectangle or make the speedups much faster.
screen_11.png
screen_11.png (763.36 KiB) Viewed 3042 times
This part is very hard. To make it a little bit easier:
Add hookable on the right wall and remove some freeze of the top.
If you have own solutions to make it easier use them.

-----

That was round 3. If you fix the bugs and replace the 3 parts the gameplay would be ready.
Then we still have to fix the grafik bugs.

You're so rude. 2 boring novice hookparts in whole maps are ok. Leave it.

So here we go to the last gameplay check.

The gameplay is good and funny now. You made a good work!

One part needs two minor fixes. Don't worry it's not much.
screen1.png
screen1.png (541.96 KiB) Viewed 2986 times
This part is cheatable. One tee can go down in the freeze. The other one shoots him trough.
Make a door or something else there.

This part is long. So you could make a cp there. Add stoppers and a hooktrough like in the screen.
After this the part is still playable like before. But people with lower skill can try this jump to the top more times.

You are asking why there is no laser? I removed it in the testversion. It makes problems with the gameplay. Was a bad idea of me. Sry for that!

I would use the normal ddnet button there looks just better.

-----

There are little bugs outstanding.
I show you a few. I can fix that if it is okay for you.
screen3.png
screen3.png (208.46 KiB) Viewed 2986 times
Missing ground tiles.
screen4.png
screen4.png (340.78 KiB) Viewed 2986 times
screen5.png
screen5.png (388.45 KiB) Viewed 2986 times
Missing endless-on tiles.

And there are a lot of weird blocks flying around the map. Some layer can be HD.

As i said i can fix that for you.
