its a nice level for your first one. imo 7 is far more accurate then 5.6 but whatever
also, since thunderwalker based his rating on music, the rating should be removed

agree with snooze, i enjoyed this. and that thunderwalker mostly copy and pastes his review-layouts in general. furthermore i don’t get all his points of downrating like his taste of music.

Edit: My review is not accurate because I hadn’t found the seek pu and the second carrot the first time, but most of the stuff + the rating still count.
I promised Agni to review this, so here we go. I like the fact that there are no standard PUs in the level. No bouncers at all is actually good because they would be overpowered with this layout. What I don’t like is that the only PU in the level and the only carrot are in the same area, and the only seeker ammo as well, which would cause the game to be mostly focused there. A warp to the bottom right corner on the top left roof would be nice. I also don’t find the gun9 pu very useful, there are barely any places in the level where you could make use of it, maybe for shooting people who go into the tube, but the gun9 ammo is just enough for that. The eyecandy is good, you’ve used a bit of everything and I see no bugs. It’s nice for a first battle level, I hope to see more in the future.

Well, there IS a Seaker PU and a second carrot.
It is a nice first battle level.
Story:
N/A
0/0
Music:
I liked the music not that much, but it was at least quite orginal.
9/10 —-> 10/10
Eyecandy:
It is there, but it is very basic.
6/10
Gameplay:
Level Layout.
There are no warps, but everything is fluid and works properly. There are no real secrets, altough some Electroblaster ammo and the Seeker PU are more or less hidden. But they are too easy to get, with the result the top of the map ends in Seaker mayhem, which concentrates the fight in the bottomleft corner.
There is only one sucker tube which doesn’t do anything unless you are chased, but Seekers will blow you up regardless – it won’t save your ass.
5/10
Pickup Placement:
The toaster PU and a carrot and Seekers are in the left corner, the Seeker PU in the right corner with another carrot. There is no reason to go to the top of the buildings or whatever. There is some ammunition there, but it isn’t needed with the PU’s near the bottom which concentrates the fight even more to the bottom.
5/10
Enemy Placement:
N/A
0/0
Replay Value:
It is too standard, and not orginal. It is either Seaker spam or Toaster spam, a little bit dependant on where you are running. And we’ll have enough of that kind of maps. Sorry.
3/10
——————
28/50 —-> 29/50
Penalties:
None.
5,8/10
However, it is your first level, and it is not that bad, so I’ll round up instead of down because I cannot rate a 5,6 or a 5,8.
DR: I dunno. Decide for yourself. It isn’t that bad, but it isn’t that good either.

The hardest hitter on the rating was actually placing the Seeker PU, because I’d think those ruïn the gameplay in multiplayer levels. The electroblaster PU could be placed better or at least with some Layer 3 in front of it (and the entire building if you do so).
The music, despite I do not like it that much, is no reason to downrate it that much; it has in the end nothing to do with the gameplay. He does get nearly full points there. After talking with FawFul I added the last point there… but it doesn’t change much besides the roundup makes the 5,7 a 6,0.
