Wizard Tower v1.7.7a

[Zenonoth]

Hello, just tested the map here's my review:

- Terrain is bad, just one tile, no tile variation, and it's flat.
- No custom spells, you're using Blizzard's spells which are there since 2004
- Some tooltips don't tell what they're supposed to, like your Inner Fire hero tooltip for the Healer/Priest and the Guard Tower for the Builder
- Only 1 shop
- Game is very hard, even on easy difficulty
- No custom items

Overall, I'll rate this map 3/5, vote for Awaiting Update, will change my review/rating when necessary changes are applied, you can also tell me if you're dissatisfied with my comment/rating and I'll gladly remove them both.

Thanks for the feedback! I highly appreciate it; straight to the point: I agree with what you say, except that "Game is very hard, even on easy difficulty"; when I played it multiple times with friends and other people, they said it's way too easy ( we played it on "Easy") I don't remember making any HUGE differences. After all, this map is supposed to have strategies and teamwork, so if you don't cooperate and have a solid strategy, you're probably going to lose, you can't just head-on fight 1v1 on each side.

I am new to World Editor, I don't know what you mean by "Custom", but I made "Custom spells" and "custom items", if you mean COMPLETELY CUSTOM, I don't know how to even do that xD. (Including tileset, idk wat that is )

Thank you, I'm planning to add more items/shops, add tooltips to spells that need it, and try to balance the game over-all. Also, no need to remove the post, I appreciate it.

There is nothing wrong with making a very simply defense mini-game that has a short play session.
However, because of how few features such a map would have; it demands that everything in it must be good and polished.
You only have 4 characters; icon misplacement and tooltip errors are not forgivable.
I personally think that with proper polish, hero/unit design and with more features overall this could be a very fun map.
But as of now it is not that, it does not seem finished.

I am moving this to the too simple section because...
1) It fits the description of that section
2) Its not finished; and rules unfortunately demand that your map must at least have all the planned content working.

When you are done making this map, feel free to re-submit it.
Until then, this goes to too simple.

Thanks for the feedback, I am still learning with World Editor, so it makes sense. I'll try to fix all the mistakes. ;P

The Map Development forum is where you can post your map for testing and discussion.
Submission is only for finished maps waiting to be entered into the database.
Hope that helps.

2/5.
Easy is not easy. It's awful to control the other heroes if 4 players are not filling the slots.
Nothing special overall.

Thanks for all your feedback, people. I'm trying to make a better map like this.
Adding features (if everything goes as planned):
Better details (tooltips, spell placement, map movement etc.)
More heroes
Better hero selection
Monster waves (instead of continous monsters coming)
More monsters
Roles will be different
Better items
Balanced (?; )
Difficulties also affect looks & amount of waves
5 people instead of 4 (This can cause problems for people like deepstrasz, that complain about solo action playing by himself as one and controlling other 3 heroes [no offense ])

That's not a problem of the game. It would be luxury if the map would be calibrated depending on the current number of players. I've played it with a friend but we still had to control the other two.

It would ruin the purpose of my map though. It's supposed to "EDIT: work with all 5 heroes", each having a different role and the need to cooperate with rest of the team.
