A credits list in the map description with the names of the authors whose resources you've used is mandatory. That includes models, skins, icons, custom spells, systems. Also, sounds, music and everything outside this site. This helps you with the...
Interesting concept. Halloween themed verses Hero arena.

Need better starting items
Fix icon texture pathing so it doesn't turn green when in menus.

Magician has no offensives skills is quite a bad pick.

Need more custom low level enemies. the random hostile creeps make no sense if you suppose too be fighting pumkin monsters a.i. Just remove the creeps and add in more low level spawns with a.i.
most of current creeps are too high for most unleveled solo heroes.

Pumpkin bad guys a.i. doesn't really roam or hunt you down.

No idea how your suppose too gain score as pumpkin pick ups don't spawn anywhere too pick up.

Terrain is flat and barren.

Interesting Idea but needs alot more work.

This helps you with the models, skins and icons from Hiveworkshop: Resources in Use by (6)Pumpkin Island v.69 | HIVE

The description could be improved.

Awaiting Update.

ADDITIONAL NECESSARY INFORMATION
  • A credits list in the map thread description is required where the names of the resource (models, skins, icons, spells, sound etc.) authors are mentioned along with the specific resource. It would be a luxury to have links leading to the used resources. Credits in the Quest Log would be appreciated too.
  • A detailed changelog in the first post would be helpful to reviewers and notify fans about the newest implementations to your map.
  • Map thread tags are important. Please use those that fit and not more or none.

EDIT:

  1. The pumpkin item icons are green when you're not near the shop. They need DISBTN. Learn about icons:
    BLP Lab v0.5.0
    Complete Icon Tutorial - All About Icons
    How to Make an Icon
  2. The pumpkin item models don't have a death animation and they remain on the ground after you take them. This is confusing for other players who come by them.
  3. Too much one tile and flat terrain.
  4. Much to circumvent because of the terrain shape.
  5. The Way Gates can be used to escape to invulnerable land and healing there is instant.
  6. All Warcraft III regular spells.
The map is too simple.
Substandard.
