“Long Distance Call”: This map was equally inspired by one of my good friends paintings at school and Jiggerjaw. It is basically the overall compilation of what Jiggerjaw had taught me about jumper puzzles. I still love it as much as the day I submitted it.
A Lighter Shade of Pink: I made this map for the map pack lord_day and I had made. It is a good jumper, but it was a lot more to me. It opened up map making a lot for me and really changed my approach to map making. I was always disappointed about how little attention this map had received.
Chicago: This map really opened my eyes to what exactly could be done in a map, which is rather sad since it’s like my 214th map. It is a bit too hard though. It was one of those maps I made to cause you to pull your hair out, but ended up being so much more.
Cucumber Enigma: I made this map for Nedcon 7 back almost a year ago. This was back in the days when I was hip, when I could make anything and it would be received well. The map it’s self actually didn’t do too well until Base played it. He fell in love with it and pretty much nagged everyone in to playing it until it eventually gained the fame and status it has now.
Dislocated Day: I actually got this idea from a DDA Clifty is working on. It’s the single most painful map I have ever made. Never, ever, have I put so much effort in to one concept. I had actually made a completely different attempt that had failed. Unfortunately it was way too difficult than I was hoping for. You had to be too pixel perfect at the end.
Flower Sex: This map came to me in a dream. The level its self is just so exciting to me, I mean you have to navigate most of the level without tiles. You have to figure out which combination of triggering thumps and worrying about falling without any floor to land on. I thought it was pretty damn innovative so I was disappointed when people didn’t take it so well. The map made a great difficult level for the Session 4 pack.
I’m Afraid of the Clouds Attacking…: Before this map it was pretty much decided I was going to make races exclusively, but after seeing the success I decided maybe I should make more actions, puzzles, whatever. In other words, if it weren’t for this map, I would most likely be like Marija-whats-his-name. That isn’t something I would be happy about.
In the Morning of the Magicians: This map is like spelunking in space and the deep sea at the same time. It’s so chaotic and surreal to me. This map is also most likely the best representation of my current style, which unfortunately isn’t seen much because of the Horizon project.
Loco Bilo, Texcoco, and the Robo Named Armadilo: Sadly this map is probably the funnest map that I have submitted to numa. The map is space age and fast as hell, two things I absolutely love. LV and I really jammed together on this map, it almost took longer to think of a name than it did to make the map its self.
Painting the Roses Red: This map is perfect in its self. I don’t think we could have done a better job. If only the making of the map went as smoothly as the map had turned out. Krusch had turned out to be too whimsical for me too handle and we spent nearly have the time arguing about gauss placement. But, in the long run it ended up helping me more than anything.
Scrap Yard of my Soul: Really, before I submitted this map I had fallen into the shadows in the whole race scene as new names like frogs and dejablue had appeared and were making rather good races. Then dejablue came to me wanting to make a race map pack, I said yes. I then talked to LV, Baraba, Linus, and KA about races. Having heard what they had to say I created this and four other races that blew me in to race fame.
The Tax Man… Naked: I just love the stripped down feel of this map. I had actually submitted this a few days before the Dronies deadline, but the map received little attention and only received eight votes. So, I resubmitted it one day after the Dronies deadline and it ended up going seventy something votes 5/5. This map pretty much tagged me as a kra race maker. Which is kind of disappointing, I do make other kinds of maps.
