Because this was an experiment in making a platforming game, pathing and movement may feel a bit jagged at times. There should be no lag from this map, so all graphic settings should be at their highest. Your light quality must be at its highest setting to view the game properly.

Personal Notes:

This is another map I wasn't too motivated to work on after the contest was over, but I'll get around to improving it over time. Feel free to leave suggestions or glitches so I know what to work on in the (hopefully near) future, or what to include/exclude from future maps. The only thing that will never be done for sure is making this into a multiplayer map.

A very original and yet unseen type of map in Warcraft 3, however it's quite short.

This map is approved and works properly.

Oh nice you've uploaded this one ^.^
Love it!
Rated it 4/5, it's really neat and fun to play, also a genre yet unseen in Warcraft 3, but it's kinda short ;P
(Also I think I already kinda reviewed your map during the contest somewhere)

You're a moderator again?

Anyway, yeah I wish I had the motivation to make it longer, but the platform pathing is a pain to deal with. One of these days I'll be adding more to it.

Make a generator that can read SLKs and import from Excel?

On to the map itself, I didn't like it. You've clearly put a lot of effort into it, which is good. Some especially good points were the attack animations (timing, response, combos, etc), graphics (obviously), and the rather challenging boss.

In my opinion, arrow keys can't and won't work well in Warcraft 3, the laggy response just isn't good enough for this gameplay. The only way this type of map would possibly work for me would be to use mouse clicks.

I highly disagree with you. I find this map really unique, and the arrow key works fine to me, it have delay but too short to actually feel it.

This map is very FUCKING GOOD. I try it more times. I really shock aobut the gameplay. At first it is hard but i already know the moves.

Arrow Keys are good no need to change.

gonna add a review here soon..

EDIT:
is it just me or is the loading screen blurry and unreadable?o.o

This game is a one of a kind and has a lot of potential! althought the controls are a bit messy, F1, F2 etc. is confusing:S

anyway great game, good luck and keep up the good work!5/5

Mini-Game Contest #7 - Winner: Obtained via the Reeeewind Event Contest, which was aimed to reproduce an older contest. DeathChef's reminiscence allowed him to create the most appealing entry! 
Actually I can see by the way that you made this map you can actually possibly use a right click method for an alternative to using arrows with it actually also being more custom movement manageable and fun. ^^
