Inspired by Map Contests hosted by Dancer, I present to you, the latest mapping contest!
Mapaganza is a fun and competitive mapping contest to bring mappers from the community together, as well as showcase how talented the community is! Mappers will be tasked with making a map based on the prompts, once they’re done they’ll submit it to my discord: theatlas0817. Once the judges have cast their votes, the winner will be crowned: The Mapaganza Champion! It’s that simple!
I will be looking for five judges! If you want to judge the maps that get submitted, message me!
Judge Application Due: August 30th, 2024
Mapping Contest Start Date: September 1st, 2024
Mapping Contest End Date: September 30th, 2024
Mappers, here is your prompt:
Mappers are to create a Village/Port Map. You can use any tileset you want, as well as any palettes you desire. All Maps need to be 21x21 tiles and must include a shop, armory, and an arena. Maps will graded on 4 categories: Aesthetics (How visually appealing is it?), Gameplay Design (How could this map be utilized? Does it offer unique gameplay options?), Technical Details (Are there any height errors? Does the map provide shading?), and Creativity (How unique is the map?).
Other Rules:
- Maps must be fresh and new. You are not allowed to dig up and reuse old maps. Additionally, you are not allowed to borrow elements from maps from other hacks.
- Using AI maps are not allowed.
- You must stay within the 21x21 size limit.
- You can use any map palette of your choice.
- Maps that are submitted past the due date will receive a deduction in their score.
- Judges are allowed to submit maps for fun, but these maps will not be considered.
- Maps must include the formation shown below. The green tiles are free spaces.
