Hello,
Unfortunately, I will be REJECTING this map submission - here is my input:
Theme: The theme is original, as I do not believe we have any darkness-themed maps. However, do keep in mind that all donators have access to /nv (night vision), and therefore donators can get past the whole darkness gimmick pretty easily. Also, keep in mind that parkour is a 1.8.9 server, so any gimmicks that exist in 1.16.3 (which you recommended at the start of the map) won't be there for the majority of the playerbase.
Build: The build looks pretty cool from the outside and certainly matches the theme of a blackout. I think that the theme limits your build, as the inside of the build is very boring and has almost no details due to the theme being that its pitch black.
Parkour: The parkour was the appropriate length for an Insane but the difficulty of the jumps matched better with something like a medium map. The parkour was also a bit repetitive - you had some variety with the water, ladders, cobblestone wall and slime jumps, but you could definitely still utilize more blocks like flower pots, soul sand, brewing stands, anvils, etc. to make a 120+ jump map feel more interesting. As for the end, the parkour kind of just stopped? Having a specified finish that resembles this would be nice to let players/staff know when the map is complete.
I'd love to see more map submissions from you in the future, and have a great day!
