Now you may think that I'm being a little too generous with these scores, but in fact, I'm not! This map was truly a joy to play! It was very original and creative, from the puzzles to the concept itself. Although, there was point in the game where I became quite frustrated. It was at "Parkour to the Sky". Now, I get it, it's supposed to be challenging. But some jumps were just a hassle to make. It eventually became "Climb. Attempt jump. Fall. Climb. Attempt jump. Fall." It was just time consuming, and honestly, not very fun. Aside from that small section in the game, I think it was absolutely superb. The easter eggs and scoring system only added to the fun of this map. A lot of effort was obviously put into this map. The checkpoint system was brilliant, too. But the beds canceled out the purpose of the checkpoint system, since you respawn in them instead of the original spawn. As far as aesthetics go, the map was beautifully created. I did come across a minor bug though. In the test chamber with the lava gap (3, I believe?), there was a safety chest to store your items in. The signs say you can access it from the other side of the gap, but you can not. Very small bug, though. I just used creative to grab my stuff, then fly back over.
You awaken in a small room with no recollection of how you got there. Your adventure immediately begins when you fall for a trap and are shrunken down to size! You must find your way out and stop whatever evil is behind all of this...

INSTRUCTIONS
1. Download the map.
2. Extract the map from the .zip.
3. Locate your .minecraft folder by typing %appdata% into your search bar.
4. Put the map in the saves folder.
5. Start up Minecraft and Play!
For Bukkit Servers:
Part of this map takes place in the Nether. That means that if you are playing on a Bukkit Server, you need to make sure it migrates the Nether files into a seperate world folder called 'ShrinkCraft v1.0 for Minecraft 1.2.5_nether' or else the Nether will NOT work.
Post your's on the thread and I'll put it in this section!
LEADERBOARD
Each is one point, Each is two points, Craft your Diamond blocks into at the end.
However, if you received any Gold Blocks during an explosion near the end of the map, they may NOT be crafted into Gold Ingots. When you post your score, post the actual amount of diamonds you had, not the point value of them.

We did a playthrough of your map and recorded it. We died many time and possibly cheated accidently on more than one occasion, lol.
It was fun though, difficult for us!

amazing map, 44 gold ingots and 65 diamonds total: 174 points. man those diamond bloacks were sneaky, only got 3.
I am inclined to think that there is only 3, but I could be wrong.
Anyways I went back and played this map again (because it was so good, and because I wanted to find the last Easter egg(even though I didn't :P) and I actually increased my score, I got 100 diamonds and 42 gold...
I wonder were the rest of the gold is...
Out of curiosity, did you put out a set amount of loot, or did you just put it in chest depending on how hard they were to get?
Oh, and you might want to include something about not tuning the gold and/or diamond blocks that you can get from the Queen Ghast explosion into points, even though that is obviously cheating to do that

I would most definitely recommend playing this!
