You are in a dream, falling. Around you, shapes prowl, shadows lurk. Far above you is an escape route, a tangible hope of life beyond the nightmare. But the tablets are setting in, and you go ... down ... instead. Why? Because the squares are dripping, of course. The squares are dripping.
You are on acid, and you are horrified.

no, don't worry too much
I already knew your answer and that you knew the gold wasn't "worth" getting before I asked, I was just asking for the sake of asking. Your answer was enjoyable to read nonetheless. Aesthetics > gameplay for you, interesting.

I agree with the others
But based on your reasoning, I accept the map as a work of art (which is most of blackson's maps)

The gold is there because of aesthetics. If you notice, the gold is equally spaced in segments throughout the map. This is something I do very often. An object's use isn't measured by how it benefits the player, but the map instead. Sure that gold wasn't worth the time to grab, so why grab it? It's the player's choice whether he/she wants to explore the entire map, the way the author intended. This map is more technically correct than anything else. I consider N more of a canvas than a game personally. Aesthetics and appearance almost always come before gameplay when I map. When I'm done with the aesthetics I'll try to work on the gameplay a bit, but if it gets in the way of aesthetics I prefer aesthetics. This is why most of my maps are awkward.
im_bad_at_n, this probably answers your question too.

This honestly doesn't work for me that well
I don't like how it looks much, and gameplay isn't great either.. what is with the fall at the beginning? and the gold everyone else mentioned? No rate.

highscore run
that is; ignoring the 3 golds on the left.

That is not an AGD. AGD stands for 'All Gold Demo', not 'Any Gold Demo'. Please don't try to hide your inability to get all the gold.
Even sunset is better. He admits his mistakes.
:P
(I know you just automatically put AGD sometimes)

a good guess would be
why you bothered to put that gold there when it doesn't seem to be worth grabbing (+ six seconds to collect and return). and if not, I'll ask that question anyway.

What do you mean, why the top left gold?
And thanks flag.

I guess before I'd seen these as kinda boring but they make a lot of sense now.
