When designing this map, I knew that I wanted to do an EW SQ map, however I was uncertain whether to do Pyramids (which eventually won), or go for a volcano theme, which I will likely do next time.

The map was inspired to be a mix of Royalty (multiple levels of middle), Palace (Middle have generators at the edges), and Birthday (overall scale).

Though if hesitated that building a copy of the pyramid underneath middle may have lead to camping, I felt that not only have I minimised the risk of this with the minimum block limit, as well as giving the player no place to clutch onto and escape.

Similar to maps like Fairytale and Cranes, I wanted to have an Easter Egg in the form of something only people in spectator mode can see, that being the inside of the inverted pyramid. The villager statue is intended as not only a reference to the culture, as well as just something funny for players to find after being eliminated (with another Easter Egg within it👀).

Base Islands went through several renditions, with a sphinx originally being the plan, before a llama theme was decided upon, with the exterior being just that, and the interior similar to a ruined structure. Though I intended to originally do a llama underneath the base as well, I decided against it, as not only had middle already done so, but camping would be much easier to do so down there.

If any changes were requested, I would be happy to make some slight adjustments, however I am more than happy with the work I have created.

Below I will attach a playlist showing some videos of the bases being constructed (there may be some time gaps as the software I clip with caps at 15 minutes, so anything longer than that deletes previous footage).

The final video in the playlist also shows a few screenshots from the development of the map:)

Thank you, hope you consider this map, and if there are any issues, please let me know!

really like this one, maybe some details would make it even better like cacti in the middle but overall would love to see this added!

Cacti would break if you place a block next to them, unless you mean one in a pot. And if so, I guess it's possible, but they did say not to add necessary details in the guidelines.

I like the idea and execution, especially the base. The middle could use a tiny bit more space but I really would like this one added

I agree with Thijs, some more details in middle, perhaps some colors would be nice but overall very nice map!

This looks great, and like the others have said, add some decorations around the middle and it would be amazing
Yeah I though about maybe adding some stuff outside the pyramid during building, however my fear is less that it wouldn’t fit in, but more so how to have something there that is both true to the theme, and practical to be there in an actual EW game.

Hi dedmeet07! Thank you so much for your Map Submission! Your video was fun to watch.

Unfortunately, we have decided not to accept your map this time around. Here is some feedback for future creations: We would like to see more color variation, this map is almost entirely sand-colored. We like the camels but we wish the team islands had a more creative shape than just a big rectangle. Overall the interiors don't offer a lot of detail of texture variation. The excessive use of slabs in interiors is also discouraged, it interrupts PvP encounters significantly. Additionally, the shape of the pyramid raises concerns for ease-of-PvP as it may be easy to camp on top of it.

Thank you once again and we really hope you submit more maps in the future!
