Story
Once upon a time, Pandas existed. Theese Pandas somehow got summoned into an arena and somehow they have to avoid deadly towers and traps that ... lives there.

Gameplay
With the help of your mouse and your lovely keyboard button D, you shall try to survive as long as possible.

Notes
This is actually an update of my old map Dodge The Towers. But many things have happened since then, that I decided to post it as a new map.

Also, there are currently 9 levels. And there are no ending yet. Don't know if I'm going to put an ending. For now, just survive as long as possible.

And since this is a big update of my old map and an early version, there may be many bugs. Please give me feedback and tell me about the bugs if you find any.

Feedback to feedbacks
I want to keep my 1337 post. So I'll post things here from now on.

Well your description leaves alot for the fantasy that's all i can say :p - just kidding. The idea seems pretty sweet, but i think if you can't make a smooth game system it will suck. Good luck with the map!

Of course you can! If you need help or anything or you just want to test it, just post it here! :D

Sounds cool; I always like those dodging games and like 50% of my maps always have some type of thing like that. But is it going to be the same repetetive thing over and over for 15 levels? or are there going to be interesting abilities and such to live it up?

Good luck! :thup:

Monotonomy

I was wondering the same thing, thewrongvine. It could be a bit monotonous if it's just you running from towers for 15 levels. :p

It will be multiplayer, I hope people would get motivation to play it by beating other people's time of survival.

I tested it. It was a good idea, but too slow paced for me so I decided not to bother finish playing it.

I'm going to make it easier, hosted it in battle.net and everyone only lasted for 3 minutes max.

Hey mate i finally made myself download the map and open WC3 to try it out. I think the game can be a bit boring the first 1-2 minuttes - but then it gets awesome and pretty sweet. I could imagine it being sweet in Multiplayer. I got to 2:25 but got pwned because i thought blink was global (IT'S NOT :p). But you should remove the heroes for players that leave or isn't in game. Also maybe add difficulty levels or make that you can start at level 3 - 5. Anyway awesome map, looking forward for updates!

Happened to me, but I pressed the 'B' button for divine shield ;)

Anyway, The map seems a bit slow too, it gets boring in singleplayer.
It is however a good idea. What I think the map needs is a "Replay" option so you can try again without re-hosting (online)

StormBolt or other spells to distract people would liven the game up. Except they too should be dodgeable. So maybe a stunning, not-damaging shockwave :)

I'm trying to fix that, they don't complain about that when I host in b.net. Replay button hm.. Yeah, I currently have Elapsed time as event on each level, so that will be a lot of work. I think I'll make dialog too.

I got a tower which shoots shockwave. But it doesn't stun

I was thinking of a competetive mode. A skill that swaps the position with a targeted friend and your objective is to kill each other.

Kewl, I'll try it out!

EDIT: lololol, I got to 6:33 first try... that was awesome! It's a fun map that keeps the pace, although it does get repetetive. You should add more abilities and temporary boosts.

The lightning towers were the ones that got me... I had to decide whether to get shocked or burned. :p

    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air

    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
