Notifying everyone here that there's one week left until the deadline! If you want to start a map (or another :^) ), now is a good time!

 

Definitely gonna whip up something for this. I've never speedmapped before, so as someone who usually maps at a snail's pace, we'll see how it goes :)

Music: rd - Far From Home and Lost 
Comments: I really liked the base textures I saw in screenshots, so I felt like making a map for this. Riffing on the starbase theme that Synami is going for, as well as her use of hexagon shapes.

I wanted to do a 1-hour speedmidi and I still have a bit of time left for that, but I'm tired. I'll probably submit a version 2 with a bit more work on the MIDI.

Edited July 25 by baja blast rd. : MIDI has been fixed to loop properly :P

Comments: This is probably the last map I'll submit. I think this turned out great, fun little fights and somewhat good visuals. This is my favorite out of the 3 I submitted.

I also added difficulty settings for my 2nd map and I changed the slimefalls to the correct ones:

Your version of DSDA may be outdated? I'm not sure, but in v0.27.5, the music works fine for me.

Map Name: "One by one!"

Music: (elio_2.exe- "Class Trial Cosmic Edition Concept (MIDI!!!)".mid )
Comments (Optional): I'm glad this exists. Gives me the opportunity to yap, though I'll try to keep it short. How's life? I'm fine hbu. Anyways, I'm glad I found this, even if the end product was disappointing. That's on me for changing the theme midway. I tried a gimmick I thought of while in the bathroom. Misaligned textures, I ran out of time for.

Edited to include difficulty settings. Also deleted a rudimentary area I'd just left there. Whoops. OneByOne.zip

Music: Synami's Speedmaps MAP01 MIDI - Synami (dunno the name lol Sorry)

Comments: Whenever I start an Ode2 map I stop and think. Is this too much? Is the joke getting unfunny? Then I realise it's an Ode2 map and the joke has never been funny even for a second and I make it anyway. Humbly request for this to be the last slop map.

Edited July 29 by Death Bear : Update Map

[Death Bear]

Sorry for the double post, but I wanted to alert that there is now an update to my map. I replaced the switches with stock switches because apparently, I can't read, but I'm a bear, so I'm not sure what anyone expected. I also (not sure how) was missing my exit texture, so that's fixed, as well.

Author: -BLEEDTEA
Music: -BLEEDTEA - ACT Loop
Comments: Making this was.. a bit stressful but I think the map turned out pretty good! Very surprising since I am overall terrible at making things.

The first ring is actually sort of fun. I was running low on time for the second ring so It is just a bunch of zombies. Also difficulty levels are in. I hope they are okay.

The .ogg is VILACT and SKEACT slowed down together.

Old V2 Edit: Fixed the walls of the final fight. Hopefully they won't completely sink into the lava...! Fixed some missing textures too. 

Edited July 30 by -BLEEDTEA : Dammit there are missing textures on the revenant sectors. Updated to Version 3 now...

[-BLEEDTEA]

Not related to my submission, but @Synami, in your Chromophore map (syn-ctd03) the locked blue & red doors aren't actually... locked. (Doesn't seem to be intentional considering that the exit hallway is behind one of them)

That's a mistake on my end, thanks for pointing it out! I've now fixed that.
