Description We spent way too long on this one. Like, seriously, over a month. Oh well. :/

This map was featured on 2010-12-17

Fuckin' magnets, how do they work?

I'll tell you know they work. When a magnet is placed in the epicentre of a minefield laden with precarious gold, it will form a magnificent pattern around the magnet that resembles a curvature from the gold and mines attracting to the opposite pole. Thus a magnetic field is formed… Which can't be good for the ninja's knives… Or Insane Clown Posse’s reputation for knowledgeable lyrics.

Overall; this map indeed is a miracle, however ironically canny that may sound. But I don’t care I just did it. I went there.

Comments

I see the map differently now.
Very distinctive and interesting look. Gameplay consisted of more stumbling around than I would've liked, but it was interesting too.

Whoa, shit yeah.

I'm apparently amazing at collabing, seeing as the two maps that have been featured of mine are collabs.

Thanks superstardomX_!
not a justification.

...

that doesn't make it look good though?
it's intended to be a ruined space-temple (those are asteroids, yes) with some kind of mystical super-magnet in it's core, dragging everything to it's center by their protons and electrons. IT'S THAT POWERFUL.

And yeah, gameplay was meant to reflect this. Drop a ball-bearing in a bowl with a magnet in the centre. Watch how it moves. Then play the map and take note of the areas that the ninja progresses through.

Dude...

Not only a cool map, but theres an ICP reference in the featured comment

cant help but agree with palemoon, the mines and tiles dont go well together at all, aesthetically speaking :/

First try.

aha, seriously, wtf

I opened NUMA and my first thought was "...waiiiiit".
The moral of the story is that taking a month on a map yeilds amazing results. And also Bio does mean z-snapping.

oh, fucking, yes

Thanks man. I bet Bio's going to be stoked. I guess in his current absence I should do the obligatory plug for the rest of the mappack.

And I guess we should start making more maps for it, hey? >_>

It offends me deeply.

I see

I like the review by the way. Map is decent too.

Damn,

I remember this map.

Yeah that's right. I had the first comment, bitches.

But seriously, this is wicked good.
each area feels so precise and the aesthetics are great.

Deserving feature.

Review was bad. A meme does not a review make.

YES. Godfuckingdamn finally. Gratz squibs ^_^

good mines

Gameplay = meh, sorta fun, not really, meh.
It's too... touchy. The jumps are all small and they kind of bore me. I don't think I ever felt like I was pulling off a cool move in this map. Gameplay was marginal.

The tiles were wicked, though. Really liked them. The gameplay just killed it for me.

3.

fucking cool

.

Whoa.

One of your best maps. 5aved. This definatley needs to be fueatured
Tiles are great, but gameplay is only OK.

But 4aved.
While almost no others can. =D

Anyways, gameplay goes mostly to mah good bud squibbles.

Beautiful

This was very fun. I agree with what everyone else has said. The enemies were placed perfectly. 5aved.
