Help
Hello! My name is Kinglau3 and this is my first map. I was inspired by the map: Escape the Puzzlemaster. by Ditto64.
The map is called 'Levels' and it's puzzle / parkour based.
As this is my first map, I don't really know if it is good enough. If it is too easy / hard, too long / short.This is mostly a test to see how well the community reacts to my brand of puzzles and twists.
So please give me some feedback!
Play the map on peaceful mode as there are no places where you should fight enemies.
You wouldn't want to be pushed in the lava by a zombie!
When you play this in SMP make sure that you look for the tower with flames on the roof. That's the entrance of the map.
A big shoutout to RNOSFERATU for being the first to put the banner in his signature. Thanks buddy!

Recommendations I recommend using the Toomanyitems mod by Marglyph.
This is to set time to night for using the checkpoint system in the most efficient way.

Story 10/10 Surprisingly! one of the first Park/puz maps i've seen with an actual story. You start off in the torture chamber... I dont want to give away to much for the first puzzle but u find torch and a pressure plate behind the fire to make it to the next room. In there, you meet up with someone who tells you that you were going to be killed because you were faked for a murder but that your innocence can be proved by completing the tasks! seems pretty cool!
Difficulty: 10/10 Definitly a very hard map! It took me 1:30 to finish it. There were a ton of puzzles and at one point I believe you could even choose if you wanted to do parkour or Puzzle I chose puzzle most way through Because im more of a puzzle sorta person. I solved every single puzzle and beat the map! my favourite puzzle was the lava maze followed up by the room where you had to destroy the redstone torches :3
Redstone: 10/10 Perfect use of redstone almost every Room had a redstone contraption in it there were also a few easter eggs and hidden chests in the map which were pretty cool but the redstone using in the map was amazing! It wasn't anything a begginer can do right off the bat it was only something a pro would be able to do! Download the map for yourself and see!
Length: 10/10 It took me an hour and 30 minutes to complete which is the longest time its taken me to complete any map! but i wasn't bored as i played i was very excieted to see what would happen next but i was also using my brain to solve most of the puzzles at the same time!
Creativeness: 10/10 I havn't played to many puz/park maps before but looking at your parkour room I was like... "shit" Im not going in there haha and the puzzles also took like 10 minutes each just to complete which proves that they were clearly very hard puzzles! the puzzles must have taken a very long time to build as from what I saw and how much redstone engineering you had to do Overall fantastic map Kinglau3!
Side Comment: BRAINS ARE NEEDED :3
Final score: 50/50

Notes taken during gameplay:
P.S. Also, perhaps you may want to use redstone torches as a scoring system in the game? It would encourage the players to keep their eyes open a lot more!

I loved the map, it was really well thought out and wonderfully designed! You've really spent a lot of time on this map and it's been worth it. The ideas are unique and fun to play, and the style of the map is consistent and never lacks interest. The storyline is maintained all the way through and is solid and smooth. The ending is great and I'll be sure to look out for any maps you do in the future. Great job!!! 18/20! -Er, well, I'm a bit confused by the beginning, I hope I spawned at the right spot... (I assume it is because I found the first secret chest...)
-It took me a while to find the opening, but I'm on my way!
-Now only Jeb can help you? Cheesy, but funny... Nice storyline, I love the mystery.
-Great idea with the directions. I can tell this isn't a puzzle map for the weak...
-Easter Egg get!
-Parkour or Puzzle, hmmm. May as well save the best till last. Off I go to parkour!
-AAAAARRRRRRRGGGHHH!!!! That parkour challenge destroyed me! Still, it had a lot of variety which was great!
-When you get the button, you may want to make sure you they don't use it on the other door at the exit of the parkour challenge (which I later found out was the exit to the puzzle challenge). I wasn't sure which door I was supposed to open.
-Secret chest 3? I must have missed one
-Another secret chest no. 3?
-Another easter egg! Pink wool is not as good as a diamond, but meh...
-That maze was epic! I'm really starting to love this map!
-It's a good idea to give the player ladders, in case they fail at parkour. (not me though)
-Was there supposed to be a lever on the block where you're supposed to place the lever?
-Honestly, I prefered the parkour around the High Tower to the first parkour challenge. I think maybe it was the sprint jumps but also just the way it was designed. But still they're both great!
-Hmmm, lava or water? You could be tricking me, or you could be double bluffing me, or you could be triple bluffing me, or you could be... ah screw it! I'll just pick lava... (I wont say what happened in case people who havent played it yet but I like what you did with the water option...)
-Ok time to leave this place for good!
-FREE AT LAST!!!
-I'm going to go back now (yes with hacking, but only so I can experience the full map) and do the puzzle side, because I thought we would get to go back and do both...
-The enderpearls challenge is original and fun! Great idea!
-Great map!!!

9/10 for originality or creativity - I loved the variety of parkour and challenges. They were difficult, but possible and I loved how clever the challenges were. I loved how the redstone worked and made it far more interesting.
9/10 for how fun I found the map - When I understood what to do, the map was really fun and the length of the map was really good. Unfortunately, I only played on 1.8.1, so the pumpkin room was far too easy, and maybe some other challenges were lacky difficulty.
3/5 for how well I think it was made e.g. scenery, bugs etc. - I'm sorry, but what I was meant to do was really unclear in places. But the map was very clean and looked amazing.
21/25 overall - Probably the best parkour/puzzle map out there. I hate having to drop so many marks on the third marking section as it was geniunely a good map - the pixel art was great and not overdone and all the rooms' themes were really wonderful. The only advice I can give you is just to make the objectives of the rooms really clear and you've got an outstanding map. usually I hate parkour maps, but I really enjoyed this!

Map: Levels
Originality: I've seen my fair share of Puzzle/Parkour maps, but this is surely something. Levels takes you into a new dimension of Parkour and Puzzle, Puzkour perhaps. It delves itself in individuality and proves to be something special. It makes me ponder the existence of this a good thing. A 9/10 from myself, as it is one of a kind.
Design: Each room consists itself of devious puzzles and jumps, each theme fitted accordingly. The aesthetic environment brings the feel of you being encaged in a trial to redemption. This made me feel like a prisoner who has no bounds or means. That is not necessarily a bad thing, of course. A 8.5/10, as a couple of the rooms felt bland.
Enjoyment: The amount of rooms and trials are astounding. Clearly the creator has spent his time mastering this to maximize the fun of it to the user. The fact that I tensed during the Parkour choice room was appropriate, given that lava covered the map and I felt as one with my character. This deserves a 9.5 from I, as I guaranteee you will not be bored with any 'Levels' in this custom map.
Backstory: You were about to be killed because you were accused of murder by the High Council, however you were innocent. They were going to send you to the nether to live, however a mysterious figure convinced them to redeem you if you passed some tests. So of course, the storyline keeps it simple and relative to the map, and allows you to focus upon finishing it to see the enticing ending. A 8.5 from me, as some of the map did not relate to the story.
Length: This map may or may not take one sitting to play through. This is a good thing, I presume as you can come back whenever you like and still enjoy this. The amount of puzzle really does make this a great map. 9.5/10, a good length to keep you from reaching the fires of boredom.
Variety: This map has many levels (no pun intended) and is bound to entertain you. After I finished, I put creative on to look at the redstone work and it looks like you put many hours into perfecting it. Some original traps, and some I've never seen before, so great job. 8.5 for the piston horizontal push machine, didn't work for me as it kept stopping me, tried about 4 times before I just walked the way.
What to improve on: I'd say this is picture perfect, I have not witnessed anything wrong entirely with it. Good work!
Final thoughts: Parkour, Puzzles, Challenges, all of my favourite things. This is a great map, recommend to any Minecraft player looking for a different experience than any other!

Levels was a fantastic map. each puzzle or parkour had its own unique/creative characteristic aspect to them. I can see that he spent much time on this and his time and effort has really paid off. many of this maps challenges are extremely difficult so if you are not that great at jumping puzzles then you will never finish this map. I very much enjoyed playing all the different variety of puzzles and parkour that was put in this map such as the slowsand race to the door, or the part where you have to dig your materials and then craft with them in order to move on. this map exceeds all expectations for a good parkour puzzle map and i highly recommend it. i finished this map in about 1 hour and 30 minutes and i gave this map a 9 and here is why
Puzzles - 9 each puzzle brought its own variety to show and it was not to difficult to complete, you have to use your brain and follow the rules in order to solve these puzzles
unique - 10 like i said countless times, this map brings its own style of uniqueness, not only in the story but in the layout of the map itself
creativity - 10 each room did not look the same as the last, which is key to get good creativity.
difficulty - 9 most of these challenges were difficult, but they were manageable to do, the only trouble I had was in the parkour lava room...
length - 10 perfect length not to long, but not to short
enjoyment - 10 i had great fun playing this map, never a dull moment

Story:8/10 A quite interesting story. I really like it.
Looking: 10/10 Very nice looking. Every puzzle looked different from the others and I also liked that tower with multiples mob faces. Really nice!
Epicness: 7/10 Some puzzles were epic.
Difficulty: 9/10 Quite hard. I mean that lava maze took me ages to find the exit. I will say honestly, I used noclip to perform that puzzle otherways I would ragequit at that point.Also the second maze...I didn`t like that too but it had a observation point and it was better.I just hate mazez!And I didn`t know what to do in that red wool room.I think I had to destroy a redstone torch after I look around a little with noclip but i`m not sure how.These puzzles I didn`t enjoyed but the rest of them it was fun.
OVERALL: A good puzzle map for someone who likes a challenge and has some patience to complete all the mazes.There were some puzzles that I really like and I never saw them before.I hope you were original and it seems so.Well done!The final score for this is 7.5/10 and you get a for your map.

Pre-play notes not available. The first time I played this was awhile ago, but I assure you, I was swept away.
CreativityWhen I entered the map for the first time, my character entered a hellish sacrifice room, beautiful indeed, and it just escalated from there. Every puzzle I encountered may have been done before, but Kinglau3 has done it to perfection. From the simple parkour to the terribly confusing lava maze, he has surely done a great job with this.From my perspective, the only thing he could have done better is a better end. It's just a Minecart ride to a hut, and outside of the hut is a pair of diamond boots, but that seems to be the only flaw in the creativity. Also, the parkour aspect feels like deja vu. It just seems like it has been done before, too many times.
Score: 8/10
Building StyleI should just combine this with creativity, because the building style in this is also just staggering. Hellish chambers, lava mazes, and even a creeper tower. The simple color scheme of some areas just fits so well together, it's like a match made in heaven. Even the trees are magnificent.Nothing much else to critique on this one except for the fact that a lot of places felt far too crammed or isolated, when you have a good chance to expand and make something out of pure beauty and awe.
Score: 9/10
EffortYou can tell how much effort he is putting into all of this if you just go to his thread. He has been at this one map for awhile now, and he doesn't seem like he is giving up. He has gotten many reviews, videos, and all the way up to his third version now.Like most first time map makers, he couldn't get his thread right, no pictures, no videos, and he couldn't even hyperlink correctly. Now he is campaigning for his map all over and successfully made a map with over 2000 views. I would say it's well worth his time.
Score: 9/10
DifficultyA lot of things could have made this map harder than Dark Souls itself, but happily, through the aid of items and TMI, this map wasn't entirely that difficult, other than the maze part, but that is a personal thing. I actually hate mazes, but that should not stand in the way of things.There are plenty of checkpoints, that's a plus. He even allowed us to use TMI to turn the time to night so we can use the checkpoints. That's another plus. He gave us items so we don't die when we try to walk through lava. Well, that's a huge plus.The deciding factor on this part will be the lava, as there's a ton of it. He happily aids you with anti-fire potions so walking through the maze is simple, just a little irritating when you slow down when you touch it. It just seems more long than hard, and last time I checked, that isn't difficulty, that's a part of the game.
Score: 10/10 - Perfect difficulty
End DealIf you love dungeons, puzzles, and parkour, then you will love this map. It has a great building style, and a fine learning curve for players. I would recommend it to most, and currently, this map stands #1 on my top 10 reviews.
Final Score: 9/10

Pre-play notes not available. The first time I played this was awhile ago, but I assure you, I was swept away.
CreativityWhen I entered the map for the first time, my character entered a hellish sacrifice room, beautiful indeed, and it just escalated from there. Every puzzle I encountered may have been done before, but Kinglau3 has done it to perfection. From the simple parkour to the terribly confusing lava maze, he has surely done a great job with this.From my perspective, the only thing he could have done better is a better end. It's just a Minecart ride to a hut, and outside of the hut is a pair of diamond boots, but that seems to be the only flaw in the creativity. Also, the parkour aspect feels like deja vu. It just seems like it has been done before, too many times.
Score: 8/10
Building StyleI should just combine this with creativity, because the building style in this is also just staggering. Hellish chambers, lava mazes, and even a creeper tower. The simple color scheme of some areas just fits so well together, it's like a match made in heaven. Even the trees are magnificent.Nothing much else to critique on this one except for the fact that a lot of places felt far too crammed or isolated, when you have a good chance to expand and make something out of pure beauty and awe.
Score: 9/10
EffortYou can tell how much effort he is putting into all of this if you just go to his thread. He has been at this one map for awhile now, and he doesn't seem like he is giving up. He has gotten many reviews, videos, and all the way up to his third version now.Like most first time map makers, he couldn't get his thread right, no pictures, no videos, and he couldn't even hyperlink correctly. Now he is campaigning for his map all over and successfully made a map with over 2000 views. I would say it's well worth his time.
Score: 9/10

Puzzles: The puzzles were really epic, though some puzzles were pretty hard. There were a lot of orginal puzzles which made it good!
These puzzles are something you should do in your next map. Extremly good design on them too!!!
Jumps: Alright, the jumps were okay, but the tower near the end of the map had some really cool jumps, when you jump on the clouds.
The last parkour had very good puzzles, I could do that parkour over and over again!
Design: OMG!!! The design was so good!!! You are a very creative builder, especially the tower was extremely well done.
I really loved the part when you are gonna pick the way, so epic !!!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Puzzles: 7.8/10 (Not bad....)
