Rufus Review Map Score Gameplay: 10 / 30 Aesthetics: 10 / 20 Total: 20 / 50 Rating Chart 45-50 5/5 Highly Recommended 35-44 4/5 Recommended 25-34 3/5 Useful 15-24 2/5 Lacking 0-14 1/5 Unacceptable Gameplay I loved your other map! However, this map didn't have as fun mechanics to play around with. In addition to that, the dash ability lagged a lot everytime some one used it. Even if you don't notice it, it shouldn't be like this for any player, as this means there is an unefficent trigger somewhere, causing temporarily lag because it repeats too many times. In order to make this fun, you should perhaps add more moves, or come up with a new ability like in the hook in pudge wars, for this game to revolve around. As it is right now, it is not very easy to use, and therefore not very fun either. I forgot to mention that on your other map, but the introduction message show for a pretty short time. i never had the time to read it, especially not when playing on a bot as their messages cover up the screen for about 8 seconds upon launch. You should view this message or like 3600 seconds or something and just clear the screen when a player is writing a command. It is also unclear how to use the -kills command. I tried to enter it correctly many times but never succeded. Instead I just picked deathmatch. I think you are overcomplicating it. I would write it like this: Write "-kills #" to set the number of kills. Aesthetics The choice of having a pudge in this game aswell is not very good, as they don't have the image of an agile warrior like the anti-mage you put in here. It doesn't make sense that a pile of meat dashes away so quickly. Terrain was not at all as clear as you last map, which is a nuisance since you want to have maximum vision when you play something that requires quick reflexes and decisions. The terrain was overall dark and gritty, which might have been good for a campaign or dungeon crawler. The terrain is not bad, just very unfitting. The trees are way too big also, as they obscure the plyers view. Bugs It lags upon casting the dash ability. Summary This game seem to have been based off the pudge game you have uploaded before. However, this game idea does not hold together as good as the pudge one, as the gameplay is not as well planned and executed as the other. The terrain contibutes to a bad gameplay factor as it removes clarity from the game. Status set to Awaiting Update.

I fixed the spell. its not caused by lag. Its lagging because of shaking camera. AProject made the dash using effects instead of dummys. btw i found a leak i working on fixing it.

It should be fixed most of the lag issue now.
