ROUND 1 RANKINGS
Feedback is still a work in progress, as I've committed to reviewing all of them. However, this gets out the feedback from the guest judges. Congrats to the top 3, I’ll message you about the prizes.

1st. Alex garden by alexander - 27.5 points **spruce’s pick**

spruce said:

Creative layout, while most would divide the layers/floors of the track into different scenes, you created one massive perspective art piece. This is the most full and diverse track entered in this round. Nothing was left unfinished.

Max007x said:

Before Zwinxz released, this was my pick to win it. What you have here that Zwinxz does not have is just beautiful, well detailed drawings. It’s really just one gorgeous drawing. For me this track has the best detail in the round. The track is also really cool to play. It has a nice balanced difficulty and some real standout ride sections, easily among the best of the round. You are one of the few people who still make great rides and I love it. I also like how this feels zoomed out a lot like Spruce’s track but it’s still very much the Alex version. What this track lacks for me is that cohesive feeling, being transported to a game world. It’s a very nicely designed foreground but it doesn’t really blend that well with the background for me. It’s cool as a concept but for me to win it you need something slightly more.
Click to expand...

pssst said:

When it comes to reusage/redesign of the original track, your’s and weem’s were definitely the best at doing so. There’s definitely an artistic presence in being selfish, so when it’s backed up by something of this quality, I can respect it. The growth of the track as it ascends is astounding. I was caught off guard by the first floor at first before I truly understood the intent of where you were going with it.

2nd. taure by zwinxz - 27 points ***Max’s pick*** *pssst’s pick*

Max007x said:

I had a lot of problems ranking these entries. Not here though. Clear winner.

This track has everything I look for in a good track. A very well thought out layout, both visually and in the ride. Good moment to moment gameplay, well balanced difficulty, looks awesome as a concept zoomed-out and just an amazing sense of exploration that tracks rarely get. When I play this track I just want to see where the ride takes me, if I will actually get to ride all the way to the top, the bottom, that cool building to the left, stuff like that. Rarely does a track really take you to another world but this one does. I absolutely love it. I also like how it doesn't really look like the original track, but it keeps the feeling of verticality, and expands on the spaces to the left and right of the track. Nice remix!

The only place this track lacks really is in the amount of hours spent making it. I think if you had two more weeks to draw this it would be perfect. Right now visually everything looks great but it lacks some real setpieces. Can’t complain though with the time limit. I already want to play it again.

spruce said:

zwinxz's entry just seems sloppy to me.
Click to expand...

pssst said:

Holy sh*t. Forget about the contest, this one is all-time. Not only does it look beautiful but the re-usage of assets from the original (the design of treehouses) create an experience that feels immaculate when playing. Also in the central area of the track, the incorporation and restructuring of the original was amazing. This is a track that will be referenced for years to come.
Click to expand...

3rd (tie). Mutation by weem - 26 points

spruce said:

The detail on this track was the best entered in this round, and that's the only thing really pushing this track to the top for me. I would have liked to see you get rid of the window shape and try something different.
Click to expand...

Max007x said:

The first two floors are among the best work in this round for sure. It’s great to play and visually it looks awesome. Big fan of smoke spewing mushrooms myself. For me this track does lack a bit of cohesion. Some floors look great on their own but this track never really feels like one big whole. I also find both visually and in gameplay the later floors lacking. If you could’ve kept up the quality of the bottom floors this could’ve been top 3.
Click to expand...

pssst said:

Along with Alex’s I felt this one incorporated the original the best. But this one was special in other ways. It’s amazing to see, since we’ve been doing this so long, for someone to create a style that seems completely original. As was intended, every rock/spore/tentacle feels alive and it’s great to detail that impacts the track rather than sacrificing it. This is legendary, I wouldn’t be surprised to see this style imitated in the future.
Click to expand...

3rd (tie). Maelstrom by Eryp 26 points

spruce said:

The ride on this one is quite overpowered by powerups, and I don't like that much, but otherwise the detail is great on this one. The mass of flowy clouds at the start is the main feature for me, it really is something new and different.
Click to expand...

Max007x said:

One of my favorite tracks this round. I love the feeling of verticality here. How you go up and up through this underground world. You really get the feeling of being higher and higher with huge pits to fall into the further you get in this track. The ride is very nice and I like the layout. I loved playing it. Also features some standout detail sections. It does lack that wow factor that the first two tracks have though, but on its own it’s still lovely.
Click to expand...

pssst said:

This one was undoubtedly my favorite. Because it spoke to me in ways none of the others did. The way the theme impacted the ride was incredible, the loop with the hand reaching out I had to take a step back because I fell in love with the track at that point. Definitely destroyed the original track, but enough was incorporated in my opinion to give it’s due credit.
Click to expand...

5th. Temple of Time by Volund 25 points

spruce said:

I really liked the ride on this one, it didn't feel the same as the original. The detail was minimalistic and I like that, it doesn't distract from the ride. I also like what you did with the window shape, you turned it into a complete temple.
Click to expand...

Max007x said:

A very good track that just misses the top 3 for me. You have a lot of awesome characters full of creativity here, and just a nice story mode kind of track. I like the layout with the teleporters, I like how it remixes the original and I also really enjoy all the little details. For me the gameplay was a bit bland though with not many really cool sections. There’s also a lot of space that I would love to see filled in. Great track.
Click to expand...

pssst said:

He’s back. With a vengeance. I’ve watched a lot of botw playthroughs, despite never having played it, so I fully respect the direction you went in regards to the source material. It feels immensely true to it. And on that note, I love when people take inspiration from a popular source like that, because it draws in more people to this game. If I was you, I would share this with the Zelda community or maybe you already have.
Click to expand...

6th. Pigs on the Wing by Netsik 24 points

spruce said:

This has one of the best rides out of this round imo, it uses the original structure quite well yet feels completely different. I don't look at this track and thing of my track, and that's what I like to see. You did a great job with the layout and repurposing my original clouds in the track to something new.
Click to expand...

Max007x said:

Great concept. This is the kind of track I hoped to see when pssst showed me what you were remixing. I love how you slowly go into this building. Great idea and makes for a nice exploration. I do think that visually this track has some bland sections that could’ve used some more work. I also find the ride really really boring. You just go from left to right on each floor with not much happening. You should really try to explore what things you could do to make your ride more fun. Good track, close to being a great track.
Click to expand...

pssst said:

Man I hope this one isn’t snubbed for a feature, because it unequivocally deserves it. This one really met that fine line, expanding on the original and the reuse of assets to make something truly spectacular. I love the look of a factory/warehouse building setting in conjunction with the original. This fit in so well with how you changed the ride too.
Click to expand...

7th. Rise of an Empire by mR..A 22.5 points

Max007x said:

This is a very nice track, nice work doing the 3d stuff. This track has some real cool visual moments. I do think it’s a bit too much of stuff you’ve already done before with no real twist. Some detail gets real sloppy as well and I can’t really see Spruces track in this.
Click to expand...

pssst said:

Different reasons aside, this one I’d say is tied with Zycerak for most fun to play. The ride just has a fluidity to it that meshes so well with the design. And I’m very happy that you chose to make this sequel, it’s a masterpiece in it’s own right for that. It just looks so cool when viewing it all zoomed out, this could definitely be a poster.
Click to expand...

8th (tie). Dept. of Despair by Zycerak 21.5 points

Max007x said:

Very nice ride. Lots of great ideas. Good use of all kinds of power-ups. Sweet drawing of an eye up top. I actually really like this. Does lack in the visual department though which is why it isn’t higher. Layout is a bit confusing sometimes. Also a lot of the original track is lost.
Click to expand...

pssst said:

This one in my eyes, is tied with Mr..A’s for most fun to play. Notably, because you kept the same speed and anticipation you had in your practice round entry, except turned it up a few notches by incorporating different vehicles. And despite the incredibly fast pace, I still fell in love with the details, like the eye, Eli, char at the bottom of the pit, etc. Even the ground which some have said looks unfinished; it may be, but accompanied with the speed of the track I feel it fits an aesthetic.
Click to expand...

8th (tie). Flooded by Coated_Badger 21.5 points

Max007x said:

Cool track. Looks nice zoomed out and works with a theme. Ride and detail are a bit bland though. Good track.
Click to expand...

pssst said:

This one is up there with feature-worthy ones in my eyes as well, definitely hoping for it. This one has a special feeling to it, because you turned the ride into a very fair and interesting challenge, utilizing pieces from the original. The extension to the track fit so well into the central theme, it felt like a truly immersive experience. This is the kind of style that can easily carry over into Round 2.
Click to expand...

10th. down under by mudkip (churro) 20.5 points

Max007x said:

I don't know where the original track went but I don't know if I should care. The snailhouse in the middle is so good. Very sweet track to look at and great theme. Visually awesome. Nice work.
Click to expand...

spruce said:

yeah, I couldn't see much of any of the original track with mudkip's entry.
Click to expand...

pssst said:

This one strayed super far from the original, but out of respect for how good it is and the work ethic to get it in, I can’t knock it that much. It’s definitely a potential feature in it’s own right. It has some of the coolest drawings and design this round. And shoutout junji ito.
Click to expand...

11th (tie). RC8R1 by LabibZaydandy 20 points

Max007x said:

Lots of great little details that give this track a lot of character. You really want to zoom around the track to see what’s going on. It’s so stacked with little drawings that it gets a little cluttered sometimes though. I would suggest drawing some more standout setpieces with some more space around them for a nicer overall look. Still nice work.
Click to expand...

pssst said:

I am a huge Spongebob fan, so I have a lot of respect for you including “Bold and Brash” and other Squidward art pieces. That’s really where the track excels, in the small details, but I would like to see them become big pieces. Something to really grab your attention. Other than that, I have a lot of respect for the grind you did detailing this.
Click to expand...

11th (tie). Erudition by Foundations 20 points

pssst said:

This one would’ve been near, if not the top, had you finished and for that reason I have to give it’s due credit. It’s a story left untold, shoutout all who are lost.
Click to expand...

13th. Outcropping Outpost by RedOrBlue 19 points

pssst said:

This one is has a coolness factor to it that I really like. I love how fluid you made the track while explicitly keeping pieces from the original. Other than that, it just works so well with the aesthetic of the track.
Click to expand...

14th (tie). Outpost by Wolf777 18 points

pssst said:

This one is very complete, it checks all the boxes in regards to maintaining assets from the original while making it your own. But at the same time, that’s where it struggles. There’s nothing to really surprise you or grab your attention. But this is definitely something you can build on during Round 2.
Click to expand...

14th (tie). Rock Bottom by gr611 18 points

pssst said:

With where this one ended up in the rankings, I might look back on this one as the most underrated. The intertwining pathways in conjunction with what you took from the original was genius. This is extremely fun to play, and it absolutely makes up for whatever it lacks detail wise.

pssst said:

I love the direction you were going with the rock detail and the floating island at the top. Incorporating the balloon there was also a great change of pace from the other entries. Like Phase, this is getting more credit on what it could’ve been, not quite what it is
Click to expand...

18th. Weird Warehouse by Polarized 14.5 points

pssst said:

I have a lot of respect for the direction and variety you brought to this track, but it banks way too much on the ride. I understand the trial elements and they were a good challenge, but the majority of the challenge for me were unintended ones, ie no reaction time out of portals. Thus it became a huge pain to play.
Click to expand...

19th. Station 435 by Totoca12 14 points

pssst said:

This one definitely would’ve been ranked higher if finished due to it’s intuitive challenge and variety. Would definitely like to see this continue in Round 2
