What first comes to your mind when I mention The-Riot?

Is it Saturday night's party?
Or maybe it's the Kaiser Chiefs?
You might even think of an Italian football match.

When I hear The-Riot, I think of a collab group - made up of elitist mappers (and Radium), that have dedicated themselves to putting together masterpieces for us to play.

AD (AA) is a fantastic example; every object plays its part. With nobody taking the lead role, you have every chance of stealthily making your way through without being harmed. But once you want that AGD...

88.7 The Riot is a morning show :D

The word pretentious comes to mind. Dunno why.
But upon playing again (by again I mean a few more times), I don't think I like it nearly as much. It's a decent map still, just a little askew.

Chume

Thats the trailer for the movie A-team, you just changed soilders to mappers.:)

me approves, too.

but...it's CREATUREFEATURE day, so take the opportunity!

.

Radium approves of this feature

ALSO; nice fuck-up ChrisE. Actually kinda true :P

agd

In 1997 a team of elitist mapper was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire the The-Riot.

ChrisE.

You fucked up.
It's CREATUREFEATURE today, braux. :/

coooooooooooooool.

Sweet, I'm elitist.

XD

I dunno

I find that it gives a slightly ironic twist to the review.
It's just the (and Radium) bit is much less funny.
I found the number of different enemy types at one point a little confusing

An interesting map

that falls foul of it's own intricacies at times.

It's a difficult thing to mix three enemies, and I found the laser/rocket/thump comob to be unintuitive and a little too jumbled. Once I got the knack, it was fine, but getting the knack wasn't especially satisfying or fun.

Everything after the three doors felt a rushed in comparison, too. The top left gold was a lazy and awkward design imo.

Overall it's good, and I enjoyed myself enough to persevere for an agd, but the jumbled nature and uneven design made it a rather hollow experience,

wahahaha

Elitist.

I love you Chris. Even if it was unintentional.

damn.

Oh well.

er

"The-Riot: A team of elite mappers dedicated"

Anyways, decent map.
and i didn't want to be biased :/

Oh wow. Orangekraken member features a Riot map. Good stuff.

I'm pretty sure

"elitist" wasn't the word you were looking for.

Liked the map, Loved the review.

(ChrisE made me say that. I didn't want to lose my left pinky.)

Quite fun

Definitely not the average RF or nevershine map. Definitely deserves a 4. No higher because there are some sketchy areas (mainly from a highscoring perspective).

Good flow, not great. Nice concepts, as eganic said. Generic tiles, still quite good lookin'. 4aved.

Oh, oh, and a speedrun.

i'm not quite sure why. i loved the zapdrone-bounceblock thing at the beginning. a healthy handful of neat ideas in this.
Demo Data

Hmm.

I was quite worried when I first saw this, as both RF and nevershine have similar mapping styles, but I played it through and I kinda liked it. The start was relatively fun, and the tiles are quite nice. I found the laser overpowering at some points, especially with the rocket close by hand. All gold is very hard to do. Pretty hard map overall, but it's fun to complete.
Demo Data

Slow completion.
