very unique jumps, i like the funky connectors

j12, the end is a bit too far
j13, the end is too high by a little bit, also can easily bonk https://imgur.com/a/cngktBH
j16, the end is too far away, seems unforgiving
j19, i know it's last, but the end is way too far. This will most likely suck to hit online cuz online speedpogo sucks.

if youre goal is to make the jumps unforgiving, which can be a fun thing of it's own, then ignore my advice. Too lenient can sometimes be not fun.

I adjusted 12 and 13, both are a bit easier now and made 13 less bonkable.
for 16 and 19, I think I do want them to be a bit unforgiving especially since last used to be harder, I already made it easier to account for online pogo sucking.

yooo sick detailing,

on 7, the bounce jump, the bounce is annoying with stock, make the strafe a bit less tight.
on last, i preferred the old version, it was more fun, where you can freestyle however many wallshots you want

[Elandi!!]

Wow, the map looks beautiful now.

I would make jump 10 end closer/easier by a tiny bit, you can edge it often which can be annoying.
I prefer the last on pow_a1 the most. A3 version feels restricting. On a5, it just doesn't feel as satisfying.

Overall, one of the best t5's ever made. Good job.

Thanks.
I added a 32 unit noob ledge to 10, you can wallbug save on it, but that's fine with me.
On a1 last, someone pointed out to me that the entire difficulty comes from the awkwardness of the first 2 pogo's and then the rest of the jump was trivial, which is really toxic with online pogo, also when I asked a few more people preferred current last, so I'll probably stick with it.
To make current last slightly more satisfying I lowered the final ramp angle and made the end further so u zoom faster/longer, also made the 2nd skip platform higher

jump_pow_a6 changelog:
- map timer added
- detailing complete
- added shootable glass ceiling to every level
- level 2, moved first glass wall to the left by a small amount
- level 14, improved spacing, by making first skip higher, roof was also heightened
- level 19 (last), removed the left and first right inside wallshot, so there's only one way to start the jump,
the skip was moved higher, and the angle is steeper.
the double ramp was also replaced by just 1 longer ramp

there's one more small detail I wanna add before the map is actually finished, but the map is effectively complete.

last is too hard, it's way too hard to get enough height to reach the end even with pretty good wallshots. Would def make the end platform lower by 1/3 to 1/2 its current height. other than that, good job.

[Syphilis]

last too easy.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

If the first two skips are too fast, then the wallshot/skip afterwards will not give you enough height to reach the ramp. So you are forced to do non-optimal skips at the beginning which isn't necessarily bad, it's just counter-intuitive.

Loving the detailing, map is all super fun to play. Last is really good please dont change it lol

[Elandi!!]

release changelog:
- lowered last platform, I did think it was too harsh for a mid t5 map
- added back one of the shootable walls for last, I forgot I added it in the first place for if you get too much speed from the first 2 skips.
- added medals

finally done

Don't add this to tempus, unless a lot of people want it which i highly doubt will happen.
