Welcome back to another MotM contest! This month I'm going to try and do something a bit different. Seeing how imgur has been screwing up with links lately, I've decided to try and display the maps in a different way and see if that fixes the issues people have came across in the last contest. I can't guarantee it will work, but I guess I can always try :P

 

Anyways, let's get to the maps for this month (remember you can click on the images to zoom them in):

 

Orithan

Welcome to Agnis Jungle. Get used to this place; as you start here. The area shown here refers to the area that will be visible in the demo.

 

Shane

Co-developed by Avataro.

 

Eddy

Welcome to Nodnol Village

 

xanadude

"Slumber Shades, a mysterious forest housing the Lens of Truth..."

 

 

If there's any issues with this format then please tell me. Hopefully this would be a good alternative to the annoying link issue from the last contest.

 

Also, entries for MotM 88 are now open!

Voted Polaris. Considered voting Orithan, but considering how difficult it is to make Game Boy Tiles look that good, I went with Polaris' Map from RotS

I found it difficult deciding between Orithan, Shane, and xanadude. But I ultimately voted for Orithan because I feel when you look at the detail, his map is beautiful.

Orithan: Nothing special, screens are kinda samey.

 

Shane: Good area variety, voted here.

 

Eddy: Good use of FYS, a close second.

 

xanadude: I really like the map, but I'm not a fan of the palette choice.

Nulled. Both Shane's and Orithan's maps are good, and xanadude's reminds me of Umbral Cloud. Eddy's is kinda shit though. Stop working on shitty quests and get back to work on Amy Rose 3, Eddy! > : (

Nulled. Everyone else's maps look outstanding. Shane's looks so fun to go through, Orithan's is gorgeous, and Eddy's is one of the best usages of that tileset I've ever seen!

I can't decide. Orithan's is beautiful, but I feel I would get lost exploring it, as every screen has a tree and a huge flower or two, just rearranged a bit. Shane's probably has great gameplay and puzzles, but the layout of classic-esque dungeon rooms is difficult to judge aesthetically. Eddy's is visually pleasing, though the layout is quite simple. I think xanadude has some nice variety, it's just tricky to see that when the screens are touching each other, and his palette is a little dark.

 

I guess I'll vote for Eddy, since the layout and visuals are clear and appealing. It doesn't have to always be complex.
