Natural Sense: 4/5 Good
Use of Tiles: 4/5 Good
Tile Errors: 4/5 Good
Map Shape: 5/5 Great
Playability: 5/5 Great
Map Rating: 88/100 B+

Comments: I quite like this map. The shape is very nice and I like the two routes in one map you have going on. There are a few tree shading errors in the mid-level left of the map. The path shapes are done well; they aren't too straight and they don't stay the same width. The grass could be placed a little better because where it's placed right now, the player could avoid most of it and only have to walk through a few tiles of it. Overall, nice job.

@Lucario 9

Tree Placement: 9/10 Super
They are good. But it makes the path look to narrow.
Vegetration: 6/10 Ok
I see no bushes. the flowers are PWNSOME tho.
Pathways: 8/10 Awsome
They are nicly implemented, and not streight.
Map Shape: 8/10 Awsome
Again, this was hard. I would enjoy playing through this.
Overall: 91% out of 100% Flawless
The 6% was Deducted coz of the bushes. Everything else is FLAWLESS or PWNSOME.

Well, once has to be the first time...

Map Name: Docksville

Map Game: Pokémon DeepBlue (Emerald)

Comments: This is the second town you visit in my hack. It has Pokémon grass, because the connection between this town and the starter town is a sea route, and you are ferried across that route, so there has to be some place where you can find wild Pokémon. The connection with the 1st town (Route 301) is to the north, and south is Route 302.

Natural Sense: 3/5 Average
Use of Tiles: 3/5 Average
Tile Errors: 3/5 Average
Map Shape: 3/5 Average
Playability: 4/5 Good
Map Rating: 64/100 F

Comments: To start off, your map is very empty. You have flowers placed in groups, when they really should be spread out more. If the town is going to be this big, there should be more buildings, because right now they are bunched in the top. If you're going to have a ferry service, shouldn't there be a dock? The grass is too easily avoidable, if you're not going to make the player go through it, there is no point in having it. They won't go in it, because players are lazy and will avoid most wild battles if they can. The little rocks need some block editing because they don't match the color of the sea tiles you are using. The path looks odd, it probably shouldn't be that wide all the way through. The tree placement is good, none of it is too straightly placed. There are some tile errors I spotted in the trees though.

I see great potential in your maps as long as you keep mapping.

BTW: The ferry-service isn't actually a ferry, it's a Lapras :P
