Thank you Robbie, for starting the first park in my chain.

This is excellent. Don't add rotting or discolored wood lol.

The foundation you have so far is really great. It does feel a bit dark overall, which will definitely improve once some peeps and path details are in place. But tonally it would be nice to bring some brighter value colors in the mix. I like what you've started with the yellow flowers. I'd expand upon that as you continue to build!

Welcome - this is an awesome first screen.

This map is a blast. Everything is so well done here. I'm a big fan of the three of you, so it's really great to see a park of this scale. Overall map shape is excellent. Immediately recognizable as to what it is, and lends itself perfectly to showcasing so many themes.

Lots to dig into on this park, it's almost overwhelming. DKMP contest parks tend to get a bit of flak here on NE for usually being small map sizes - that's certainly not the case here. I hope to see this garner a bit more attention, because there's absolutely a ton to see here.

Congrats on the great release. Always happy to see new work from you all! This is a really special map, and you guys should be proud.

This is really great! Love your style quite a bit. I do think that making the roofs the same color as the paths is the biggest thing holding this back. Typically flat roofs are light colored within theme parks (using google maps satellite as a ref). A lot of builders on NE tend to paint them more grey/black to provide better contrast as well. So a warm beige/tan color for the roof sadly sticks out in a wrong way - especially when it matches the path perfectly. 

A good test that I always try with my parks is to zoom out and squint my eyes. If I can still clearly tell the difference between paths, roof, landscaping, etc from a macro perspective, then I feel comfortable with it. As of now, it the path and roof look the same when looking from afar.

All that said - I know this is a completed release and you're likely not looking for WIP feedback, so I apologize! Just something to keep in mind for your future releases, as I think your style is really great. Fantastic details on the ride itself, and the compass rose is excellent. Foliage overall is very nice throughout.

Thanks for submitting! Really looking forward to seeing more from you.

I see you with the 3x >>> robbo
