I am making a new map. My friend made the first version, so i decided to make a 2nd one.
Players - 4
Terrain - Twilight
Editor - StarForge
It is kind of like a bound, but not exactly. It is made of a bunch of 10x10 squares, and each one is kind of like a room. In each room is a small opsticle. You have to figure them all out, because mostly everything has weird names. Its a team work puzzle game while working against the clock to get out of the place your in.
I haven't thought of a story yet, and I'm only on level 4, but I hope it will be a good map. I'll try and get a demo up soon.

...That is almost exactly like Level Up or bounds... I dont think you should wast time creating those, create something like original RPGs or Defence games everyone likes those

Would the obsticles be explosions, or would it be like dungeon depths?
Dungeon Depths isn't considered a bound, in my eyes.

If you can get some sort of presentation there, like a story, instead of just literally dropping players on a big square but at least trying to make it some believable, then I think even that would make it a lot more acceptable than a bound. Like Rantent said, Dungeon Depths was a bound in structure, but not as generic as all the "___ Bounds" out there.

Heres an idea for story purpose: grave robbers; but instead of trying to get out their trying to get into trap infested rooms to get treasure and such

Wow, this map idea sounds suspiciously like the "Trapped" series of Flash games at NewGrounds.

no its not going to be like Lvl up bound. u go to diffrent rooms. and each room has a diffrent puzzle to solve, like shooting at a unit to try and get it to a certain place, ect.

there will only be a couple of explosion ones. it will be mostly puzzles that u have to have team work to get through. i havnt ever played Dungeon Depths, but it will kind of be like a dungeon...with traps and ect. but it doesnt lok like a dungeon

right now i am making up a story for it so it will be less of a bound, and alot more fun. it will be a misterious and kind of spooky setting, where u will learn more and more about wat happend wile u go threw the levels.

thnx for all the feedback guys, ill keep answering questions and stuff for more ppl. like i sed i will try and get up a demo here soon. u will be able to tell the dif between this and a bound.
