It's an interesting map, but it's just a bit too basic in my opinion, and it's in need of a lot of detailing that's for sure.

Oh hey you're the guy who asked me questions about map submission, I was waiting for your creation :>

First, I think the theme you used is very creative and unique, I like it.

Now let's analize the map closely:
The starting islands: To be honest, I don't get why you decided to go for a house with a garden, I'd have surely made something cave/mine themed. Here are some pictures of what I mean:

The sub-middle islands: They are pretty small for an 8 players map and the slabs you put in there aren't pvp friendly, they'd be pretty annoying. I'd suggest you to give them a more interesting shape (Not just a straight line) and try to add more details (Not too many), it looks empty as it is right now: you could add some rocks or maybe a sort of rail, it's up to you.

The middle island: As for the sub-middle islands it is too small and a bit too empty: You could add some more grounds to it to make the gameplay more interesting and unusual.

The islands at the sides: I strongly suggest you not to make pixelart of in game textures since they aren't very good. If you want to make a picaxe you could make a custom one, here a couple of pictures of a picaxe I built in the past (it would be quite big for your build but it's just to give you an idea of what I mean:

And also those small islands are pretty far from the mid, I don't know if people would spend time to build there just to get diamonds since 8v8 is usually a fast game.

So, that being said, I like the theme of the map since it's something we don't see very often but I think the build could've been done better.
Cubecraft has very high standards for its maps and we always search for maps with an unique style. that's why it can't be used right now.
If you want to follow the tips I gave you and improve your build, maybe you'd have higher chances to get added.

I strongly appreciate the time you spent building a map for us and I hope to see other creations by you :>
Good luck!

Thank you very much for the feedback and ideas I shall hope to re work the map to a higher standard, since this was my first build I was not to sure how it would go however I have enjoyed the experience and look forward to enhancing the map for the future. Thank again for the feedback I shall incoperate these features when I re work the map.

It is nicely designed, however I do not want more 8v8 9v9 10v10 rush maps! That is the reason why I do not think this map should be added.

It looks good, but I think it can use a little bit more of detailing. I also think there should be more space between every island, you can make it to the enemy in about 15 seconds here. That's a little bit too fast in my opinion.

I didn’t see the thread was in the “Eggwars” section, I moved it to “Map submissions”

Alright, I voted no due to some aesthetic reasons. My major issues are with the semi mid islands and the pickaxes. Ill start with the semi mids, so im not sure if this is how you did it but it looks like you just used the 2 size ball brush and just laid down a layer of them on the bottom of a perfectly straight rectangle. It just doesnt look good imo, and as Diav said the pixelart doesnt really fit being in a map.

 

[Story]

Hello sukubookoo, thank you for your efforts in submitting this.
Unfortunately, the design team have decided to deny this map submission due to the following reasons:

• The islands lack detail and are too flat.
