Garden of Eden

Description
=_= ....Eden. Mankind's first crimescene, according to that Christian storybook. A land that we allegedly forsook in exchange for wisdom and life...something tells me if this is true, we really screwed ourselves over.

So, all religious subtext packed in a fish barrel, presenting Somnus Nemuri's take on the Garden of Eden's appearance. Unlike the majority of depictions, this Eden is not only full of stone architecture that man would not have mastered for ages, but it's also floating WAAAY up. I can just imagine getting kicked out of there. My spine is already hissing in discomfort.

The map construction is basically like a hollow circular pyramid, with levels of garden ascending into the sky. The levels are separated and supported by tall stone pillars, and the center of the map contains a set of elevators to help you get up or down. Waterfalls splatter down the sides to the lower levels. It's a pretty impressive scene, really.

There are a couple aesthetic issues with the map, unfortunately. The first one is probably the roughest to fix. Y'know how water can sometimes turn your character blue in the presence of it? Well, that's pretty prevalent throughout the entire map. There's also a z-fighting issue on an archway on the first floor facing the statue. Couple that with some chunks missing out of the top level arches, and y'got a bit of work to fix. The only other thing I'd recommend is nature sounds, and then this map is mastercraft.

So yeah, keep at it, and I'd say this map is victory.
