As a side note; wow I had no idea about those demo recording tools. Wonder why more people don't utilize them. Seems MUCH easier to deal with instead of doing the compression dance and upload to youtube. Relatively small file sizes, sees what the game sees and not crappy compressed view of it, and can add text messages to articulate notes or whatever.

I played it and didn't manage to beat it because I ended up walking in circles. Had no idea where to go. It's been a while though, I don't remember exactly at which point I got lost.

your right... that is painfull... but also very helpfull. Thank you.


Did you watch my demo/read my review?


Just got the demo to work! (turns out I placed it in the wrong directory) and let me say it was very informative... and surprising fun to watch. You expressed a lot of emotion while playing... the only painfull parts are the parts I need to fix, and it gave me a few ideas, most notable was when you tried (twice) to hop onto an inaccessable rooftop... I will be changing that. You also showed a distaste for a few certain bits that I will be modifying.

oh, and let me ask you... since you finished the map I wanted to ask you a few questions

What was your favorite part?
What was your least favorite part?
and "memorable" sections?
any part that made you think, and/or make you feel "satisfied" when you played it?
any other note-worthy observations/glitches/thoughts?


I do believe I went over all of that in my review on the first page.

well, I guess you did, but you didn't explain how you "felt" about it, if you felt anything... what I am trying to ask is, was it "fun"?

Honestly, it wasn't very enjoyable. Most of the time I was just trying to find out where to go, and as mentioned before, the world felt dead and scripted. Sorry, I'm not trying to bash your map, I'm just giving my honest opinion.
