I know this is lacking jumps, and this map looks really small and bad, but I put love into it <3
I also read the document with all the maps the have been built, and I'm PRETTY SURE its original.
Last time I made the mistake of deleting my Coconut Mall map before it even got judged because someone told me it was unoriginal :(
I hope if there is something wrong with this map I can fix it, because I know I spent at least 6 hours on it :,<
-also I have a question. On my last map I had a question, so do I need to send the map judges a friend request on discord do message them or is there a server that I can private message on or something?

Hey! From what I can see the map is not that small, I am sure you can squeeze a couple more jumps in there! The theme is somewhat original, there are lots of mountain themed maps and this looks quite similar to upwards journey but that is just my opinion there are also lots of Mario kart maps but none on this race so good job. The parkour from what I can see is repetitive try and use things like heads, fences, flower pots, vines and ect. I would recommend looking at some maps in /warp beta to see what I mean about jump variation. Have a lovely day remember I am not a map judge. Bin

If you're in the Manacube discord, you won't need to send a friend request to moderators to DM them, you can request for them to DM you in a help channel or simply shoot them a DM as you'll be in a mutual server!

Hi FireTurtle !

Just came to give some advice. For your build, it's very cute but quite simple and I do agree with the above comments as it may be a little unoriginal. To counteract the simplicity - you could add more details to the trees and hills. Maybe if you do want to focus on a video game map, choosing a world that doesn't look like many other maps gives it a higher chance of being accepted (You definitely want to be original in your themes ^-^)

I also do agree with Bin, the map does look like you could fit in a couple of more jumps and do make sure to check out your block variation (There's an awesome post by caseyclosed in the parkour subthread that is amazing to get started with that !). And one last tip, I did notice you built the map in 1.16.4, the recommended version of parkour is 1.8.9 and jumps do change in the versions so that's something to keep in mind. <3

I definitely enjoy the energy you give off, keep going with the builds !

Hello FireTurtle338,

I regret to inform you that your map is REJECTED.

The THEME of your map is unoriginal, as we already have maps based around mushroom/mountains (GaintMushroom, MushroomLand, UpwardsJourney). Before creating a parkour please make sure to check out this template here to see all the maps accepted on the server!

The BUILD of your map is a problem. The build is very plain with the only details added on the outside front of the build. Try to create more detail around the build making the map attractive both on the inside and out.

The PARKOUR fits the length and difficulty of a easy map, so good job on that! Your parkour is lacking variance, only things that are incorporated are regular jumps and ladders. To add more variance, try adding more jumps with unique blocks like pots, water, heads, vines, etc. Your parkour was also extremely confusing, try adding directional signs for better navigation.

Thank you for taking the time to create a map, I hope to see more submissions from you in the future.
If you have any questions feel free to reach out to me on discord at Elly#5555
Elly
