I

There are lots of plants on our planet. Some are colorful, some are dangerous, some of them are exceptional. Deep beneath the earth surface, one of them has developed a huge root system. It's twisting in many directions and crawling with ruthless deadly creatures. The folks say there are a lot of "beer nuggets", as they name it. Your mission is to get them. Cause we all love beer, don't we?

I actually kind of liked the rockets.

As long as they are at a long range and only meant for guarding he gold, the weren't that annoying. The chaingun was great, and I liked the gausses and floorgaurds. There was something missing to the map, though, I'm not really sure what it is. Although it feels unfinished, I still love it. 4.5/5.

Funny, not the map

I'd expect as a feature... well take it for what it is... :) Root beer nuggets... (chuckle)

The rockets were a bad enemy choice. All of them.

But the chaingun was surprisingly good and the floorguard keeps the player on their toes without being too annoying. The gauss turrets were... neutral. I don't think they added to the map's quality but they weren't bad either. I feel like with some minor tile changes, you could make this an epic chaingun battlefield with that floorguard covering the bottom.

Basically, I liked some parts and not others. Okay overall.

Second part of the review:

In Root Beer, erikcu uses an interesting tileset and simple object placement to make a fun challenge. Sure, it doesn't look great for today's aesthetic standards, but it has some kind of charm to it. This guy is one of the most underrated mapmakers on NUMA.

Casual demo thingy

But AGD, still AGD.
Not so sure about the lower right gauss. He seemed more annoying rather than challenging.

Solid map

I really liked the gold placement. I wasn't a fan of the double rockets though.
