Implemented [SOLO SKYWARS] Arcade [ACCEPTED]

[Priley]

Arcade
By Priley​

MAP UPDATED: SEPTEMBER 20TH

Arcade is the first map I have ever built. It can house 12 players. I was inspired to create this map because I really love cartoon-style maps and I really like the old Arcade! :D
What actually boosted me to make this map is.. a bit odd.. I had been awake for about 48 hours because I felt sick, so I watched some 'arcade-movies' such as Wreck-It Ralph and Pixels!

Each island (arcade machine) is home to some basic resources such as a handful of logs. There are also four golden blocks in each island which are supposed to look like money that gamers have inserted :p

As you may see, the arcade machines are also displaying an actual game. Can you guess which?! :O

I have gone for a different layout as you can quite clearly see. I think it'll work quite well. The player has a small dilemma to face: go to the centre middle of the map to get loads of stuff, or go to the 'enchanting-coins' to get stronger that way.

Spoiler: Spawn Islands

Spoiler: Sub-Mid

Spoiler: Middle

Please do vote whether you like the map or not, your vote genuinely counts!

Your feedback is appreciated! :D

I like this map a lot! I really hope it gets implemented.
Only one thing, I hope you make sure the material variation you used for the different islands doesn’t represent an advantage for specific spawn islands.
Love it!

When looking at the map it looks like a layout without much detail, it just has a plain look about it.. Not really feeling it to be honest.

 

[Dutudy]

That looks really good! I would love to play this map if the map gets accepted.

Yes, I've thought about that! I wanted to put a few diamond blocks in the parkour minigame arcade machines but that was obviously unfair. The current blocks should not give anyone an advantange over others

How can that be improved though? I appreciate feedback from everyone but I can't do anything with 'not feeling it' :P

That makes the two of us :)

I'll have to agree with this, all the things are pretty much solid colours I do like the map though and the idea of arcade as the theme! But it needs a little more for me to see it stand out if you understand

I really like this map! :)

 

[SlinkyGnu05604]

Now that’s an awesome map layout. Hopefully it gets accepted

 

[LordSidi0us]

The mid seems to be very far away from the starter islands,also it will be very easy to die there on 1.8.I will give you yes because the map looks great and because new maps are always good

 

[Simply]

Wow, for a first map, this is brilliant. Distances between islands are pretty much perfect, and I really love the unique layout.
While I do like to play on the standard, rush-based skywars map layouts, I feel like an alternative layout is much needed. I also love that there are other options rather than just a single middle island. Also, what I like the most is probably the amount of escape routes I feel are possible. (e.g. Youre trapped on the enchanting coins and a player is blocking your way back to mid. You can juke them by moving to the side islands and crossing from there)
I feel like the gameplay this map could provide would be very interesting.
But, the one thing I would definately change would be the gold blocks. Not necessarily the gold blocks at middle, but the blocks on the spawn islands must be replaced by wool or something. Why? Because imagine this:
-basic items, game starts. You collect your island's gold and then you kill the player next to you. You immediately have a notch apple. That is just broken. Not only in basic, but in OP and normal to some extent.
Overall, this map is great. It could use some further detailing like making the underside of the ring and the middle a bit nicer by using stone etc.
Thats it by me :)

Thank you so much! :D

Why will it be easy to die on this map though? At this point in time, I would say the exact opposite due to all the gold blocks :P

That means so much coming from someone talented like you! Your feedback has definitely been taken into consideration and I'll be tweaking the gold blocks here :)

I quite like the map. For a first map it's looking pretty nice. Maybe it's because of your FOV, but I think the diagonal player islands have to be moved inwards a bit. The only thing I would change is removing the ring at mid. I think the map would work better if it was a tiny bit smaller.

Thanks a lot for the feedback! I'll be toying around with mutliple ideas soon :)

 

[RickDeKlomp]

This looks almost perfect to me. Space to PvP etc. Just think the whole map should be a little smaller.

Quoting all of ya to announce I rolled out the first major updates! I have toyed around with a handful of ideas: cluttering the ring, different shapes of sub-mid, etc. and decided this was the best option. I have listened to the feedback some of you gave me and tried to make the map smaller while not making it ugly. I am looking forward to all of your comments! Please do give me feedback! <3

I still really like this map, hope this map gets added to the game ;)

 

[RickDeKlomp]

This version is way better. Still plenty of room to PvP in, and you only need to make one bridge to get to the middle.

 

[Komodо]

This is a real honour to the old arcade lobby.
I also really like the tetris structure in the middle. I only don’t like the question block in the middle. It fits quite well, but it looks quite unspecial compared to all the other awesome structures. I’d definitely like to play on this map!

 

[Reapz]

It's a really nice map so why shouldn't it be added, great work!
