Tips

You are living in a special village called Shining, which the world thinks of as a demon village. The human country then formed an alliance with all other countries and led the armies to attack your village. Now you have to withstand the assaults from Allied Force, and send their trump card, a monster created by human's failed experiment to hell.
- A classic defense map, each player will control a hero and defense the village.

- There are 4 structures needing protection, if all 4 of them are destroyed, all players will lose.

- Each direction will spawn different armies, when the spawning camp is destroyed, enemy will stop coming from that direction.

- When all 5 spawning camp are destroyed, the last boss will appear.​
- Unique heroes with 5 spells, most of which are custom spells.

- Challenging bosses: there are 1 final boss and 5 "hidden" bosses for players to challenge, they have a chance to drop good recipes.

- Heroes can only be revived by other teammates.

- Hidden mini-map.​
-camX: change camera height to level X (0 - 9)
-name X: change your name to X
-rp: repick your hero for 250 gold
Pressing Esc button: clear the screen

Player Red only:
-more: open more one more way (maximum of 5).
-hard: set game to hard more, begins with level 2 waves.
-extreme: set game to extreme more, begins with level 3 waves.​
- For longer survival,

Poor Man's Shield,

Magic Stick
and Potions are extremely essential.

- Staying together gives you many benefit on reviving, dealing aoe damage, exp and gold.

- The map is small and your village is right in the middle, you can remember the way easily. In case of getting lost, use Teleportation.

- When you're all out from the village, keep in check regularly in case the ambush wave comes. Use -camX to quickly snap camera to the village.

- Don't be so passive, take the initative when you think the time is right to push out

- A formation of both physical strength and spellcaster is needed, if your team lacks of spell damage,

Shiva's Guard,

Maelstrom,

Mjollnir and

Radiance
are good choices.

- Be mindful of the seasons, especially when raiding bosses.​

Official Review Fragment of memories 1.14


Visuals - Ambience and Aesthetics

The terrain is overall good and offers many little doodads and details to discover. The tile variation is fitting.

You could work a bit on the village's look, to make it look more like an actual village and less like a clumped area of buildings and shops.

Your choice of custom icons is enjoyable and matching.
Passive icons are passive icons.

Gameplay and Features

I like you have a perfect combo of modified default abilities ( like Stampede, for example) and completely new abilities. I played twice, once as the Marine and once as the Beastmaster and noted some things.

btdonald, it is not a good idea to completely destroy/hide the mini-map. Instead, you could create a trigger that hides all terrain you cannot see, no matter whether you discovered it already or not, as it is done in Minotaur's Labyrinth by Shadow Fury ( it is unprotected).

It gives your map a new taste that you replaced the command buttons and added custom ones, even if it is not necessary to.

The initial negative armor value for every unit ( even for summons) seems strange to me, is it intended ? Maybe think about once more.

There are many custom items, which is always good to see.
The quest log is sparse, but informative.

Things to fix/ Suggestions

  • All the summons of the Beastmaster have a passive ability with Asian letters, you have to translate them to English
  • For percentage values, you could write 5% instead of 05%, as you don't have multiple percentage values at once, the 0 is confusing, at least for me.
  • There should be a way to revive in single player, even if the map is intended to be played in multi player
  • You could think about linear hotkeys near each other ( like QWER)
Review Result

Is the map by you, btdonald ? I don't see your name in the Credits and the map creator is stated to be Athur_12A2.

I consider this map approvable after you fixed the Asian tooltips and you clarified the creator issue

I vote for a rating of 3/5 Useful

To Mr.Ardenian:
Thank you a lot for giving out so much details of my work. I am Athur_12A2, creator and the only one working on this map. Btdonald shares this 4rum account with me and we use this together. He has no problem giving me permission for uploading this map under this account, since creating a new one requires a notification to the administrators for having the same ip.


You could work a bit on the village's look, to make it look more like an actual village and less like a clumped area of buildings and shops.
Originally, I wanted to seperate the basic-item sellers and the shops with enhanced items. And I do agree this make the village less lively...

btdonald, it is not a good idea to completely destroy/hide the mini-map. Instead, you could create a trigger that hides all terrain you cannot see, no matter whether you discovered it already or not, as it is done in Minotaur's Labyrinth by Shadow Fury ( it is unprotected).
I will give a try to look at his map, didn't know it was unprotected. About the minimap problem, it was intentionally made so in order for players not to see easily, this is an annoying feature. Players need a good communication to know each others' whereabout. Better than that, I have lost many times playing with some players when we wandered off too far and forgot to check up on the village, the ambush wave destroyed all.

The initial negative armor value for every unit ( even for summons) seems strange to me, is it intended ? Maybe think about once more.
Yeah, it is. I still don't very satisfy with this feature so I said nothing about it. You can notice it the longer you play the game.

All the summons of the Beastmaster have a passive ability with Asian letters, you have to translate them to English
I don't get what you meant, can i see the picture of it. Somehow they work fine in my map (the attachment is below). I am Asian but I only used English in my map.

For percentage values, you could write 5% instead of 05%, as you don't have multiple percentage values at once, the 0 is confusing, at least for me.
This is a real pain to me as well, I prefer a fast and low map size. The optionmizing program I used did it really well. But many issues come along. Tooltips like <A000,DataA1,%> <A000,DataA1,.> turned into something like that. I couldn't avoid this, my apology.

There should be a way to revive in single player, even if the map is intended to be played in multi player

Im on remaking the reviving system, and I will do something about what you said.
I don't really get the last suggestion? My map used all the hotkey from Q to V. Is this something bad?

Ah no, not the one you show in the attachment, the other ones, at the bottom row.

Hm, maybe your keyboard is different to mine. For me there are either QWERTZ or YXCVB, yes, I am sure we have a different location for the keys than you do

I see, those are standard abilities so didn't bother checking. Somehow the optionmizing program has many problems than I thought. I'll fix this and other stated problems in the next update, while considering I should keep using it or not.

My hotkeys are set like that (along with shop items hotkeys as well) in order for players to quickly "guess" the button based on its position. So I don't think this will change. Once again, thanks for your review.

Yes, the hotkeys make probably more sense the way you have them, I excuse.
