Map of the Month 7

Hello all, and welcome to MotM 7, the very firstest MotM posted by Joe123!
Migo's been a bit busy, so he asked me to post up the thread.

Schwa - I've done better, I'll admit it, but after 3 months of absence this was just the thing to refresh my creativity. You can go anywhere in the dungeon on your hunt for the Boss Key, which is protected by a Maze Path in the room beside it. Getting the Boss Key grants you access into the little rock dude's room in the lower left, where you get a powerful sword. And of course, the B Button is off limits during the entire course of this dungeon. Try to get all 4 Heart Pieces!

And I am apparently also running next month's MotM, so if any entrants could please send the PMs to me rather than Migokalle that'd be great.

Hi, TK. I'm your opponent.

I nulled, of course, but I'd like to say your map is very eye-pleasing... unfortunately it's also really small and isn't laden with gadgets (and by gadgets I mean things like hookshot mazes, secrets to trigger, etc.), or if it is it's not evident. But yeah, as for being good looking, it owns. I personally would've turned off Layer 6 (or whatever layer the snow is on) while drawing the map so people can see stuff more easily, but that's just me...

Feels good to finally be winning one of these! I think this is, like, the only one. If I had entered an Overworld map, I don't think I'd have a chance, in all honesty.

I voted for Twilight Knight. Sorry Schwa

Flipped a coin to be honest. They're both pretty good.

PFFFFFFFFFF....

Nah it's all good, man. That's how many people will vote in the presidential election anyway... BUUUUUT we won't get into that here...

I voted for Schwa. From glancing at it, it looks like really good dungeon design, and I also liked the amount of detail and differences among each room, plus it seems to be very nonlinear. (And it included one of his infamous block puzzles! )

Twilight_Knight's map looked quite nice, and if he had included more screens in the map (especially since I already saw it in the NTAEL thread), I may have voted for that one instead.

I voted for the same reason as Elmensajero (which, coincidentally, makes me look like a huge hypocrite because of my previous MotM performance ).

[Soarin]

Vote null. They are both good.

[Joe123]

Well personally I had to go for Schwa.
TK's map is just too small really. The amount of walkable area is far too restricted for it to be playable, and that little box that says '<-Secret' at the top just killed it for me completely.

I believe I had made a caption...

I don't really care if people vote or not, I only hope to get more suggestions this way(except for the walkability thing, it's completely intended). Schwa's map is really good, high quality dungeon.

Nope, you did not... I just double checked my PM's

[Titanium Justice]

Twilight Knight's map has pretty good graphics, though I think it's rather small for a map.

I like Schwa's map, cause it seems like a well built pure dungeon, and I also like the "infamous block puzzles" they give a feel of the dungeons gameplay. *votes*

[Twilight Knight]

I believe people can't complain about the size, it follows the requirements for a standard map.

[Plissken]

Yeah I voted for TK, don't care much about the size. It's still looks like a map to me. *shrug*

It's not too late to add one.

WTH? When I try to open the links they fail me.
