Description

This map was featured on 2009-07-20

I've spent the whole afternoon digging a field, so I know when something gets bland and monotonous. Somewhat surprisingly, this map doesn’t. In fact, the refined minimalist yet complex aesthetic produces one of my favourite maps of the past month. As ganteka’s already said, “the less cake, the sweeter the sugar” and I can’t agree more.

Instead of overloading a map with repetitive patterns or unnecessary mines, there’s just enough going on to keep this fresh, for me at least. You can really see the Nspired influence on the tiles too. All in all, it’s definitely worth digging up.

Please, this map hardly has anything to /call/ aesthetics. You could have at least made the gold better.

AGD.

I liked the floorguards, but that was about it. 3.5 down.

I remember this

i thought this was pretty sweet. i think this is pretty sweet. forgot what i rated it..

I actually *am* surprised at the feature. And congratz, Inspired, for your nice tiles.

Oh my gosh!

This totally just made my day (Which is about 15 minutes old).

The statement was made from me to Ganteka "We are getting a feature" (Long before it was even thought of). To this Ganteka replied "No, chance" (or something along those lines).

If you wondered about the title by Lightning55 it is the fact that me and Ganteka are bitter foes. We used to be friends but when it was found out that he was a multi-accounter we kind of turned against each other. He thinks that I am pompous as do I about him, (The arguments we have had are testament).

Thankyou so much GTM for the feature and to everyone else.

First feature Whooo!

Hahaha.

Wasn't it Ganteka who said "Feature? Our collab? It so doesn't deserve it." He said something along those lines, I'm sure of it.
Anyway, congrats Inspired, Ganteka. Very nice work.

All of the one ways

would have been put to better use in a different map.

So to clarify; one ways in this map, not needed.

haahahah

I was looking at this map last night and thought it was a collab with you, GTM. Oddly enough you feature it the next day. It's very much in your style, so I think it fits that you'd like it. :P

Yeah honestly

I don't think this was all that great. Some of the gameplay was a bit jarring, but meh and whatever.

seven_two: Read the feature
I feel the same way :) congrats

AGD.

First try AGD.

Hehe

A first feature for both of them, yay!
The map is pretty cool, too, and I liked the minimalistic gold placement.

*ska approves*

Demo Data

This is really good

i like it.
But I liked the simplistic challenge and the merging of both Nspired's and ganteka's styles enough to warrant a feature. Kudos!
This was a collab betwixt Inspired/nDEAVOUR and Ganteka. Both of us being "foes" we thought that we should make a collab map together. We aren't friends afterwards, because "That would ruin the fun".

oh man, that was one of the best maps I've ever played, excellent work, only thing I didn't like was the mine at the very start, is this ganteka though?

faved

I fucking

love those tunnels.

gold is gold

put as much or as little as you want.
Awesome switch placement.

You are half*

not have

Ganteka

Yes, but how does the sugar get sweeter, is it not like any other grain. And the less cake, the less sugar, unless you are the one baking.

In N, all pieces of gold are the same value, 2 seconds on your time bar. The less gold, the less time you have.

You are have correct though. Because the less gold, the faster you have to go, causing the gold to have more value for you and the time bar.

Damn, this is my longest comment ever, and it's not even for the creater of this map.

EP

The less gold, the more value it has
It's like praise, like morality, like most things. The less cake, the sweeter the sugar.

I

Bet I can be more pompous than the rest of you!

Very nice map

4/5.

FIRST TRY AGD

I loved the tileset and the gameplay, but there was so little gold that was so easy to get.

My non-AGD slow completion. Yushh

P.S. Collab?
