New high level dungeon

[Crush]

The recent accidental "increased monster spawn event" gave us the idea to create a new high level dungeon with an extremely high density of aggressive monsters.

We recently got a new map by 5t3v3 which could be used for it:


What do you think about doing it like that:

-Link the two exits with the two unused cave entrances on map 7 (eastern desert).
-Put a whole lot of snakes in there and maybe some other aggressive monsters
-Put a few immobile monsters in there that don't attack but drop something rare. This will force people to move around in the dungeon and not just camp somewhere.
-Maybe put a hyper-tough boss monster in there when we get an appropriate new sprite (candidate: The new monster by rafael):

I'm loving it
Also note the inhabited corner top right, if you put an NPC with something important, that alone would make the trip worth while.

I'm thinking, it shouldn't be a quest, because then you do it once and no longer need to get there, so maybe the NPC could be selling something people need frequently?

maybe the NPC could turn arrows + red stingers => poison arrows that hit harder or something like that?

Oh, about Rafael, how should I put this, ...

I think the sprites needs some work

I thought it was pretty fun having so many mobs. This could even be a quest. There could be something at the very end of the cave as a reward for making it to the end. If the mobs were dense enough, it could even require a group effort to make it to the end.

for a new monster , how about albino snakes?
Same as the regular snakes, but white skin and red eyes. A bit stronger then normal snakes. They could drop white skin snake http://tbn0.google.com/images?q=tbn:eOZ ... keskin.JPG] which an NPC at the end turns into snake boots (def +4 or +5)

It's very nice, I've been playing on it for a bit today.

The only thing is the few black tiles around the edge, which you can see on the picture of the map you posted.

Edit:
Found a wrong collision tile at 82,31 and at 30-34, 87

Thanks for the feedback on the map
I put about 30 tiles black at the edge in all directions as requested on the wiki. (at one place it says 20 at another it says 30).
I think they are cut out of the picture Crush posted.
82.31 I had a bookshelf there, but then mistakenly removed the tileset thinking I hadn't used it.

[Strump]

[5t3v3]

Don't know if anyone was still waiting for this, but this is the .tmx of the map with the collision tiles fixed that QOAL pointed out.

Okay I've seen this map in the latest update. The snake canyon has also changed and yet a week has gone by without it actually being "open".
I went to it right away after I got the update and tried to enter the cave. Even saw crush try and enter it that same morning.

Is this EVER gonna be open. I know I"m not the only one looking for a challenge. Everyone who's played the game for awhile is quite bored with it and content needs to be added to keep people playing. I've even began mapping. (I have about 3 in the works not including the inside of Dimonds purposed restaurant.

Please read the mapping tutorial again. Especially the chapter about what layer is used for what purpose.
