That's the good part about it. Graal has gotten too fancy. There needs to be more originality to it.

8.5/10

You get a 10/10 for level contruction. Leave the rest (originality) to the GFX. Nothing I dislike more then people trying to get fancy with tiles instead of using them for their purpose-- it just looks bad IMO.

Yes, and that completely lacks originality. If you havn't noticed Graal has gotten more original these days, everything fancy has been done.

Yes true. But Graal now has higher standards now..
It's just like collages, as time goes on and things get more advanced, it gets harder to be accepted. You should try to keep 'em neat, and not so ugly. Maybe use a mixture of originality, and fill it in O_o. if ya know what i mean .

It doesn't need more detail. Too much detail just looks stupid and horribly unrealistic.

Yes Mr. God of Levels. That level is good. Graal has gotten too fancy. 2k1's levels have too many lights and are made too fancy, Even classic is starting to show signs of Fanciness.

Look at Zelda or any professional game. The designers thereof know that you don't need to cram a million different bushes into an area for it to look good. Open grass can look so much better.

That's kinda what I based my level off of... Zelda building style... That way things look fine without too much crap.

I wonder if anyone noticed the shadows yet...

I meant different. On yours the shadow isn't fluent, so does the sun hide for that foot of land? It should be a thorough shadow the whole cliff.

So the sun is high in the sky...

Big whoop. There's nothing else that should (Or could have shadows) that disproove what I did... but whatever. I hardly ever see shadows used in any levels, so quit whining.

Umm read than post, understand what I write. The shadows on those cliffs are perfectly fine with me, it's just that it's not fluent. You want criticism, learn how to take it. It wasn't intended to be a crack at your level, just improvement.
