Rejected Giant Ladder - Medium

[Beukje]

Map name: Giant Ladder
Creator: Beukje
Difficulty: Medium
Jumps: 53
Checkpoints: 5 (including 1 at start)
/plot v Beukje 2

Note: I changed the fence neo to a normal neo (2nd layer on the back) as it was impossible to get to there and make the neo. I'm not very experienced in map making, I'd like to have tips on how to improve in my next build(s). If this map gets rejected tell me what I need to do to fix it and/or how I can avoid that with making new maps. Also, the screenshots don't include barriers, I used red stained clay as placeholders for barriers.

i like the idea but I feel like it could have been done better, maybe more big ladders rather then just one, parkour could be more varied but fits the medium difficulty good.

Hey Beukje,

Unfortunately, I will be REJECTING this map submission.

• Theme: As we have way too many MC big block-related maps and a semi-ladder themed map currently on our server, this is a pretty unoriginally themed map submission. I recommend that you look at our list of previously used maps/themes as to prevent such things in the future: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1lZKQZMgGev6fXyhZ8nCPkTzNIj0yOjXjUTDvfzKNzl4/edit .
• Build: Personally, I don't think the build is very good. The main issue is how unoriginal the build is. It's just a larger version of the ladder block and nothing else. This brings nothing new to the table, it's just plain and boring. You need to be more creative with your builds.
• Parkour: The parkour fit the medium difficulty in both length and difficulty, but it was not varied at all. You basically had the player doing the same couple of ladder/fence/neo jumps over and over again. It was just not fun to do. You have to incorporate a wider array of jumps/blocks to your parkour. Again, be creative!

I hope you take these criticisms into consideration when submitting maps in the future, good luck
