Through Hell [Moderate]

[mentalyUnstable]

Hey guys! Since my last map was a bust (viewtopic.php?p=53712#p53712), I tried my hand at another map, with a new style (well, with any style at all xD) So, here is Through Hell. Now, if there are any parts anyone has any input on, please let me know! Additionally, if someone would like to take the parts and design them(because I suck lul) to make them look good, I'm all for having 2 names at the beginning. Thanks in advance for any tips or help!

Hey mentalyUnstable,
I took a look at your map "Through Hell" and want to give you some tips, show bugs I found.

SpoilerShow

Nearly always add an undeep (left side) if a player accidently falls into deep.

I can easily jump up first and get hammer which the makes the part much easier. I would make the platforms higher so I have to use dummy.

Same here :D add an "cant hook others" (same with the endless hook!) for the way back like you did on the left side of the freeze :)

Generally, I think many of these bugs can be avoided by testing your map with a friend or dummy before posting and looking at the map as a spectator with cl_overlay_entities 50
Sorry that I cant help you with the design or mapping in general, I cant map myself.

Good luck, greetz

Thank you for the tips teddi! Some of these problems occurred when I shrunk the map down, I accidently deleted a bunch of stuff, but the rest I can fix easily. Ill get that going and upload the replacement.

[mentalyUnstable]

Fixed all bugs teddi mentioned, and a few other cosmetic things.

well just some parts are boring and annoying as well, and design was bad. keep going man, some parts are good (just need more rooms for freezer)

Agree with Cellegen. Take more time for your next maps and figure out how to make the gameplay enjoyable and fun. Maybe look at other maps to see how it's done there.

Or look it my old maps, you will learn some things about enjoyable parts >_< xD
