Introduction:

Micro Bound was an idea that I had for a while. I thought that it would be easier to bound just by locking the screen onto a fixed position. ( Map size 20x12 screen view size ) I'm sure other bounders can relate as well when you are bounding and your mouse goes to close to the edge of the screen and then your whole screen moves, resulting in you loosing the obstacle.

Obstacles:

The obstacles in Micro Bound start off easy, but as you progress they become increasingly harder. You will notice this right away. Through extensive testing, most off the bounds can't be beaten by just running through it. ( Some you have to ) Others require a fond memory of the obstacle. You must remember the obstacle and how to run, back and forth, to complete it.

Features:

This map uses Death Counters instead of Waits. This will make the obstacles look more fluent and as if they never stop. The timing of the obstacles increases as level progression increases.

Quote from Oyen

For those who don't know, in order to play this 20x12 size map, you will need to start playing a regular sized map, then quit it, and then start playing this map.

You will have to reset the buffer or something like that, so play another map before you play this, or any other odd sized map.

I played the map and found it rather fun. I am not that great of a bounder and I was able to complete 3 or 4 of the obstacles and that made me kinda happy :D

I gotta say I played this the other day and it was very well made, even though I managed to beat 2 levels in a row by clicking the other side. >.> One of the few bounds I've seen with patterns that actually make sense.

You can see the old terrain on minimap on top where you started to make a different bound :P Also, how exactly are dc's "smoother" than waits? I give the difficulty 6/10.

Instead of their being a split second or so of the obstacle restarting, death counters help speed this up because its on a seperate timer.

Okay to save the hassle, why didn't you just make a 64x64 and just have the screen always centered on your playing area? Would of made it easier to host and play instead of having to quit a regular game.

Perhaps a player will come on and decide to join "Micro Bound!!!!!!" over some other game, and he'll crash instead. It works that way for anyone who joins the game.

I will also include in the triggers somewhere that to play it after you have played ( started ) another map, and fool proof directions on how to do this. :D I will do this within the week. :bleh:

You think it's OK that your map can crash many players? It's a very easy fix that won't hurt your map at all. Don't be an idiot, Brontobyte.

Trigger looping has a set amount of time that it is delayed. Subtract that time from your desired wait time, and it will run 'smooth' if your really that worried about 5 ms. Making it dc's doesn't really improve anything, but if you prefer that go ahead.
