Ishu: I love this so much. Very creative. Thematically, I'd rank as one of the top entries. It looks very majestic when you zoom out, which reminds me of MR..A's empire falls from remix contest 4. I like the subtle details/drawings around the track as well, like the wrinkles and folds on the flag and the waterfall in the background. I like the attention to its wrinkles and folds. You can tell there was much effort put into this but I wish u wouldn't have published it so early and added more detail to solidify the theme.
Volund: Great entry! I think your detail looks quite nice, although it looks a lot better zoomed out than zoomed in, which is something you could improve on in the future. Less reliance on the brush tool will probably help with this, and don’t be scared to erase lines! The perspective of your detail was pretty solid as well, and I really liked your background detail. Your ride, however, needed to be improved quite a bit. It was impeded a bit by detail throughout your track, which made it somewhat frustrating to ride- especially because you used brush a lot. Having smooth planks on top of the grass, or the grass done in scenery lines, would have been a better idea. However, I do think that this is definitely the best entry of round 1, so well done!

Ishu: Its easy to tell that you have experience with remixing. You're style blends in very well with the track. Even though its a bit messy, I think ist pretty well laid out and the theme is well shown. It would be cool if you drew Crash. The line in the middle probably means something, but I never played crash bandicoot so idk what it is.
Volund: Ah man, if only you had finished this track! You needed an extra day, maybe two, and you had a killer entry on your hands. You know how much I love your clean rock detail, so I won’t go too into that. Your ruins, though sparse, looked really sweet, and the ride was very fun! Just like the other entries, you needed more detail and more time; it felt empty without the castle ruins/remains/relics that you were going to add. Hopefully next round you have enough time, if you do, I see no reason why you can’t take out top spot.

I love the hatching you do. Its pretty unique compared to the other artists on this game. The ride switch up and the auto spin at the start were cool too. too bad its unfin

Ishu: I love the attention to small details here, like the fish, eel and jellyfish. The rocks also have an "underwater" vibe to them. My only problems with it are that it looks a bit unfinished because of the blank spaces and one of the orcas has no tail. Very good for a first remix.
Volund: This is definitely my favourite track from you, it’s very clean, well laid-out and fun to play. I especially liked the slow-motion you added as the rider re-surfaced from water to the sky. The only thing, in my eyes, which prevented this track from finishing on top was how empty it was; the addition of coral, ruins, shipwrecks, underwater rock formations, hordes of fish/bubbles etc, would have made this track feel far more like an underwater track. Aside from this, it was a great entry; detail clean, attractive and neat, and the ride clever and enjoyable. Good stuff!

Ishu: The auto at the beginning was an original idea, which I like as an automaker. Also pays homage to wm being the maker of the original creator. I'm a big fan of the island detail; the lines all have the same direction, which gives it a good flow and adds dimension to the spikes. The clouds in the back were a good choice to add, they give the track a more completed look.
Volund: Quite an impressive remix, I liked the way you remixed both ride and detail, and were able to add the helicopter in as well. Your ride was enjoyable, and I liked the short auto section at the start. However, the detail was a bit of an eye sore; it was very repetitive and dense, which made it detract from the track as a whole. I think it would have looked a lot better if it were more simplistic, and if you had more bits of detail to break the monotony (As an aside, try and detail your tree bark differently to your island rocks, unless the trees are made of rock). The addition of the clouds was great, and added to the theme of floating abstract islands. All in all, you’ve created a solid entry, with a lot of effort put in. Clean up your detail and you’ll do very well next round as well!

Ishu: Oh god. I LOVE THIS SO FCKIN MUCH. When it came out, both volund and I played it over and over again because it was so fun to ride. I love how you altered the ride to make it smoother. Honestly, the most fun track I've played in the last year. I like the temple a lot too and wish u'd made more of them, especially near the bottom. I wish I could give this track the number one spot, because its my favorite, but its a bit unfinished.
Volund: Wow, if this track were only filled with more detail I would have called this my favourite entry by far. You used the Wyatt-shading technique really well, and your little islands, structures and water was very original and very sick. I especially loved that tree, with the square leaves; great stuff. The ride was very fun and had a great difficulty level. However, the mountains and foreground of your track needed more attention, and like the previous entries, felt really empty. Going into the next round, my aim for you would be to fill the track up with more detail; other than that, great work.

I havent played a platformer sonic game in a long time, but I love the theme. I believe its called a chaos emerald? eh correct me if I'm wrong. I like what you did with the ride at the beginning. the dot things were a challenge for a lot of people, but you remixed that part out well. Also, thanks for the shoutout lol #treegang

It was interesting that instead of changing the track layout from the original, you switched up the style.

Nice. I would have liked to see the waterfall incorporated into the track.

I like the simplicity and the ride. Next time spend more time to make more and cleaner detail.

it looks like a great start, but seems unfinished around the bottom. I also would have liked to see the theme of vines explored more.

This looks ok when you zoom out, but the theme isnt well developed. I cannot tell whether its a ship or floating islands. The lines are in the right places, but you need to connect them in the future because rn it looks messy. This was a great start

definitely an interesting interpretation of the ride. It looks very unfinished tho, each line is its own so the track has little to no wholeness

I appreciate the added challenge and the incorporated detail, like the bullet at the start. The track looks very unfinished, as there is a lot of blank space.
