Street Battle

Description
Flake26\'s \"Street Battle\" is what it is - a battle in the streets of some Naboo-lookalike planet.

It\'s a first map, and for a first map, it\'s not bad.

Yes, it is a little derivative. [i]Yes[/i], I could pass on ever seeing a map that uses Naboo buildings whole-hock to make a city like this again. Technically, though, it definitely does check off a decent amount of the boxes I like to see checked for doing a first map right. It doesn\'t use a Yavin sky. It isn\'t missing planning, at least not in any incredibly notable ways. It is pretty proficient in its object placement, and the author did try to do something neat with the Endor walkways in some parts of the level.

It\'s not incredible, of course - it is visually pretty boring. The sides are a little \"eh?\" - they\'re close enough to stock sides that I kind\'ve wish they\'d just been left as stock sides for familiarity\'s sake. I\'d like to see a lot more done in terms of unique texturing and creative use of assets - the Naboo buildings are so incredibly overused, and while I know they make good starter city props, maps like this will always have a tough time standing out.

Anyway, a good first shot, but with definite room for improvement. Give it a try if it looks fun.
