Avataro
This is from an old quest I cancelled looong ago. Lots of work has gone into details.
 
 
 
grayswandir
 
 
 
jetbox
A simple map I made for fun, and I just decided to submit. It's in Classic, so nothing fancy.

I voted for Avataro cause his was the most fun to look at. Supindahood's has nice tiles, but the layout is fairly simple. jetbox has a nice overall flow, but it seems really empty on a screen by screen basis, and grayswandir's has a good layout, and nice tiles, and get's my second place vote. :)

Avataro's was very atmospheric, so I gave him the vote. Supindahood's was great, but I stand by my rating.

Avataro's because it has the greatest amount of detail. Phenomenal. Why did you cancel the quest?

Thanks, the tileset is custom by me and Linkus mostly. What's wrong with simplicity? :P

Ya, I timed my self to see if I could make a complete classic map in 30 minutes. I did. I would add more detail, but time limited me. I might use this map for something, but I don't know.

Hey great maps everyone! Grayswandir, your map is very simple but effective. It works great in a quest and is very solid. Jetbox, the overall layout of your map is very nice but it is way too big. I don't really like walking around in such a big overworld in a classic quest, where each screen for itself has almost nothing to do on it. Supindahood, your map is really good and it looks very playable and enjoable. Why don't you guys release a quest in that tileset already, the graphics are really good!

As for my map, thanks to everyone who votes for it and thanks for the nice comments. The music of this dungeon would have been "Voices of the Temple" from donkeykong country ;)

Many good maps this week!

Avataro
I love the atmosphere and detail in this dungeon. Some of the corridors are a little crowded, but I guess that sort of claustrophobic vibe matches a dungeon's quite well.

grayswandir
A good, functional map. I feel I could easily get lost with all those similar-looking vertical streams, but it's not too bad.

jetbox
I love the expansiveness, but at the same time, the map might be a bit bloated for classic. Not sure how to describe it. Still, this is an impressive map that uses classic tiles well. I particularly like the double-size grave.

Supindahood
I feel like I've seen this map before, presented as a bunch of SotW entries. :XD: It's a simple area that has beautiful graphics. The map gives the impression of each screen not just being made, but sculpted. If you can keep this style going for the rest of the quest, it'll be gorgeous.

It was a tough call between Avataro and Supindahood, but Avataro wins in the "area I'd like to play" department, so he gets my vote.

I loved for Avataro, it had really good design.  In second, I had Supindahood.  It looks a bit boxy to me, but I really like the graphics.

Great Dungeon, Avataro! :D

 

The classic-map is a little bit too simple.

 

The other maps are nice, but they seem to be unfinished yet.
