Peon Man

This bundle is marked as useful / simple. Simplicity is bliss, low effort and/or may contain minor bugs.
A rip off of Pac Man! Only that there can be 4 players and it's warcrafted themed! Your "Ghosts" are enemy Fel Orcs. You must run for your fucking life's or you will be owned.
Once you start don't wait run! There is no starting time to get ready! Fucking run! Fel Riders will appear every 50 seconds. They run faster then you so watch out! Every few seconds a item will be spawned on the map, look out for them they will be useful!

Right now this is just a survival map because I lack the knowledge to create pellets for the Peons to eat. Enjoy!

1/5 and casted vote for REJECTION.

This map is terrible. Just by opening and seeing the triggers I could tell. I even tried 'playing' it to see if there was anything decent, but as I suspected, nothing.

Gameplay:

There isn't anything worth playing. I could make this same map but in better quality in less than an hour. It seems that you only end up running away from constantly spawning Fel Orcs, there is no win condition, neither there is there an official lose condition as there is no trigger stating your loss when all Peons die. There is no timer to say how long you have been surviving for either.

I actually thought there would have been the core feature of the Pacman game, the pills you all eat to win, but they weren't even included. This is actually a shitty survival map passed off as a Pacman rip-off, infact, it doesn't even deserve to be called a Pacman rip-off but instead Just another terrible Warcraft III map.

Honestly, where is the fun in running around pointlessly, would you yourself play this game I ask?​

Visuals:

Empty terrain that doesn't resemble the Pacman arena:

1) Where are the teleporters on the sides of the map?
2) Why is it so dull and dark?

But actually, there is no point to expand on this section if the gameplay was terrible.​

Legitimacy:

I question actually whether the map is actually yours, although it doesn't matter, you won't get any credit for something as terrible at this.​

Description:

It actually does tell me what to do (although you omit the conditions for victory / defeat - the conditions being there is none). However, it can be presented in a more appealing method, which I'll leave for you to discover (hopefully by examining how other maps are presented).​

If you're going to make a map and upload it to the public, please look at it yourself, would you yourself play it? Ask yourself that first. If you honestly believe your map to be in a fun and playable state, upload it. I think you should go learn how to properly code things (as your triggers are inefficiently designed as well & leak), and look over other maps and see how they are designed.

Ok, here's another review ...

Triggering is really bad and it reminds me on some really beginings of triggerin in WE, terrain is extreamly bad (even don't remind on PacMan style), you said that "items" spawn, but it's just "item" (and it's really retarded) ...

Improve your knowledge of triggering and maybe scripting in map, and then you might be able to actualy create map that will give gaming expiriance like in orginal PacMan games.

Sorry that I say it, but I vote for rejection :)
