Hello Finixly thank you for your efforts in submitting this.
Unfortunately, collectively the design team have decided to deny this map submission due to the following reasons:
- Upload a file, don't attach imgur links, it makes our lives easier lol -
https://www.cubecraft.net/threads/map-submission-read-this-before-submitting.219318/
- The map is nicely made, however the layout is boring. It's something we have several times over. It's great having a slightly different experience of EggWars by playing a more unusual map. By using levels, island orientation and scale you can be much more creative. The middle simply put, is an oval and that's it.
- The starter islands are strong, you haven't done the typical 'one circle' you've added some additional umph to it, which is great!
- The middle, everything just needs to be cleaner, refined and higher quality. You need to make it balanced for all starter islands when they first get to the island.
- If I was to design this map, I would remove middle and start again with 5 different ideas, until I got a layout I was happy with. Layout is the most important part of starting a minigames map. As that's what impacts gameplay the most! Most people go with their first idea
- Strip the idea down, what is Pokemon to you? And how can you take those ideas and turn them into an island, can a player interact with those ideas. Constantly run around and place blocks underneath you, pretend you are playing the game, pretend you are bridging to an island and about to break an egg, where would a player attack you from??
A few maps we've done with this theme and to better explain why they were made that way.
Pokemon (Team SW) - big teams not sure how many on each team. I wanted to do a layout we'd never done before. I wondered what would happen if I put everyone on a 45 degree angle. However still keeping the theme of Pokemon and keeping it pretty. There are quite a few levels to the entire map, however still plenty of room to PvP. If I was to remake this, I would make the back islands a lot cleaner and less cluttered.
Pokemon (Solo) - I believe yoya made this map
This is definitely a try hard map for the skywars rushers, but he kept in mind to keep it flat, make the layout interesting! By adding diagonal bridges as a way to get from the inner islands to the centre. It feels like a CubeCraft map.
Please do not be disheartened by the above comments and take some of the advice on board if you wish to submit another map in future, thanks!
