Answer 1

Whoaaaaa. VERY nice, this level looks incredible

Answer 2

Thank you. It took a while to make because I couldn't decide on the map's layout.

Answer 3

Ok your preview pic looks EXACTLY like the one for the inspiration. Absolutely incredible Meark!

Answer 4

Maps like this make me think of how much cooler this game could be if they kept adding things into the level editor :O

Answer 5

Thanks Towelie. :D I wish they would put the doors back in. I thought it would be fun to make maps with. I kinda like the challenge that a set amount of props gives. It helps focus my creativity.

Answer 6

doors were so good :(

Answer 7

Hitbox, bring back the doors!! D:

Answer 8

No birds? I can only give you 12/10 for this then

Answer 9

I was thinking about adding polygon emitters or something but then I figured it would lag the hell out of this map. I was already worried about there being too many props that could cause lag.

Answer 10

Jaw is on the floor. Stunning work man.

Answer 11

Thank you! Here is your jaw back. :)

Answer 12

hitbox hire this guy

Answer 13

Hahah that would be pretty cool but I don't know programming so I dunno how helpful I would be to the team. xD

Answer 14

Amazing visuals, wish it was longer.

Answer 15

I second this! A +1 minute Meark map is the dream.

Answer 16

I'll try to make a longer map next time, but I'm also a fan of fast dashing maps. It also takes me a while to think of map layouts that aren't boring.

Answer 17

:O
Really awesome also your work with the sound.

Answer 18

Thanks. :D I never really hear that much ambiance in levels but maybe that's because the music is usually loud so I thought to tone it down a bit like in Coast.

Answer 19

Oh my, that is really breathtaking.

Answer 20

I'm glad you think so. It's probably because of the pollution again. haha

Answer 21

He does it again

Answer 22

And I'm going to keep doing it until I run out of ideas. xD

Answer 23

How do you even make this. My brain hurts. D:

Answer 24

I start with an idea or something I like and try to make a level out of it. I usually get unhappy with how things are going and always change the map up. x_x

Answer 25

this is madness...

Answer 26

This...is...the Industrial Zone!!!

Answer 27

This is absolutely stunning. Amazing level Meark, 10/10

Answer 28

Thank you. :D I'm happy you think it's stunning and amazing. :)

Answer 29

Did anyone find the only "secret" yet?

Answer 30

i did! *cough*

Answer 31

holy crap this is pretty

Answer 32

Thank you!! :D

Answer 33

Maybe stream making maps as Towelie does? I'm sure people would love to watch that :P

Answer 34

Yeah! I would love a tutorial or two :)

Answer 35

I dunno how to stream and I don't have any recording devices, but I have thought about making some sort of level editor 101 tutorial. There are some things I'm still figuring out like cameras and stuff. Also I usually take a while to decide on map layouts, but maybe I can try to do one directed towards just map decoration or something.

Answer 36

You can ask Shurykan to give to the smaller details but I just run OBS and select the dustforce program and it streams it to my twitch account. Of course you have to enter your streaming key but that's just cut and paste :)

Answer 37

Wow, the visuals are absolutely breathtaking. Fun map as well.

Never stop mapping, Meark.

Answer 38

Thank you. :D As long as I have ideas and you guys enjoy them I don't think I will stop mapping. :)

Answer 39

Dang, this is so cool!  I'll be an outlier here and offer a bit of criticism, though :)

I think interest point nodes in your camera path and dynamics in zoom (even just a subtle increase or decrease on certain sections) would go a long way in highlighting the awesome visuals.  Pick out some visual foreground highpoints with relatively confined flow (for instance, the tower section with the two cogs) and place an interest point there and have the camera change zoom slightly.  This let's your eyes take in the scenery, as well as prevents the camera from moving backwards when your path loops back around over itself (which I find a bit jarring).

All your maps have had spectacular set piece visuals, use the camera to really highlight them and make them that much better!

Answer 40

Thank you for the criticism, it is much appreciated. I haven't really figured how cameras work and everything so I found your advice to be very helpful. :D

Answer 41

This map looks and plays incredibly... thanks Meark bruh!

Answer 42

Well.... guess I gotta start playing custom maps now then...

Answer 43

This has always been one of my favorite maps, and seeing it 1-bombed has broken my heart.
