Could become something after a little bit of tweaking and testing.
For now: rejected (until updated).

Ok let see... Square Off v0.06

Things that I like:

1st - Idea looks unique and awesome
2nd - Terrain looks ok for this kind of game

Things that I don't like:

1st - Map Description
2nd - 2 many different unit models
3th - Pls write numbers with numbers replace ten with 10, two with 2 etc etc
4th - Use colors ingame (text etc)
5th - Make map preview image or custom loading screen
6th - Add hints to game so new players can know basics
7th - No modes
8th - No Ai

Word or 2 to Author:

You have very nice idea there, but pls don't upload unfinished maps! It can be played but only few buildings and units aren't so good, +models are terrible pls use only human one or orc etc etc! maybe you can add races there like, elves, dark elves, dwarfs, beasts etc etc, some can have larger armor (dwarfs) some dmg (beasts) some can attack from range (elves) some have spells (dark elves) experiment a little! Each race can be better than some other and vice verse!
Also Create game modes, for normal mode (current one), defend tower, when you pick race unique tower is summoned in your base, you must defend it (add abilities to it like some auras etc, it can also be hero so it gain levels and you can level up auras for dmg, as, ms, armor, hp reg etc etc)
Add different terrain so you can play 1v1 on one, 1v1v1 on another, 2v2 or 4 players ffa on current one etc etc
Use hero instead of building summoner!
Remove inventory from normal units...
Add shop to buy items for example...
Add more builders per race, one is good for def towers/building, one is better incomer one is better attacker, so when you maybe play with friend you can make good attack with incomer combo etc etc!
More random events like neutral units summon, gods can play with ya and cast spells like slow or haste, give or take dmg for few sec etc etc...

You must know that I wrote only few things that I don't like but enough for map rejection, yes I will vote for rejection and give you 1/5 mark for now!
I like idea but pls make this map awesome!
Read that what I don't like and improve, then read this boring text above and if you like some ideas add them to game!

It is really hard with ya because you are ancient one, you know maybe all this but I must still write all about it so maybe some new users can check!

@DEMIGOD: Yes, I am the author of this map. If I was not I would have said so. No idea why the mini-map is gone; it must have been killed in optimization.

@-Kobas-: Thank you for your review. I think you are right that the game does leave more to be desired but what I add to it will not be the direction you purposed. Your ideas are not bad but a ton of games do those things already.

To address your criticisms directly:

1. The map description completely sucks and should be fixed. This I will get to work on for the next update.
2. I choose the models I did because I wanted to think out of the box and utilize creeps people will barely give the time of day. The matter is purely aesthetic.
3. Good suggestion. I will change this in the next update.
4. A little more color could help the game out.
5. I will look into adding one of these.
6. This was an idea I had considered but I had lost all data on. Next update I will add hints.
7. Different modes are not necessary. Only after I work out all of the kinks in core gameplay will I consider different modes.
8. If I make ai for this game it will not be very good and most players will not care for it. This is strictly a multiplayer game; sorry.

I really like when people accept critic, I wrote my opinions and you liked few and that was really great.
I will be waiting for new version, and pls take your time don't upload map each day, when you upload it finally, I will check it again for sure, I really liked this game don't disappoint me

it looks like Control Point from Starcraft.
I like it, but the income is S-L-O-W.

Still a good map. I give 3/5, because I'm not that much into of that type of game
