IT is amazing, not even a single &quot;flat&quot;section on the walls or even the roof. Nice

Rather poor flow; it's a critical flaw that I'm afraid not even the architecture or style can rescue. If I was rating this on purely aesthetic achievement, I would of course give you a higher rating. But as a map - it honestly wouldn't play well, and there's next to no level-over-level action. Really good attempt though; just work more on map layouts and you will really have a lot of talent going for ya.

One of my favourite maps entered into the competition. Detail astonishing! Excellent job!

Have to disagree with ck as me/cj/matt/karl/sal/monq all tested it online &amp; it played better than a 3. Good map, Just needed more spread out spawns.

I'm v. impressed with this map. Good job. How the hell you got that yellow texture to fit in so well I will never know...

Impressive visuals marred by a poor layout. Ominous is a good example of the sort of looks you can expect from a crackerjack level, but unfortunately it leaves a lot to be desired in terms of gameplay.
