    Absolutely amazing. Where you find all these unique objects I have no idea. Brilliantly made with lots of nice touches like changing the water color and using it tastefully in the palate, orbiting planets, and so much more. Sad to see the discussion in the contest go the way it is, this map is one of the most original creations here. Keep on doing things this where you just take a concept and run with it. I can't wait to see more from you.

    This is awesome, incredibly unique and surprisingly beautiful all at the same time. Holy shit.

    Cool stuff, Jag. You've really grown in this contest. Your concepts are strong and in here it's evident that skillwise you're growing too.

    This is probably the best non-park ever made in RCT for me. The galaxy is simply astonishing, and the surroundings are just as much. Also, points for originality, this is something I never thought I'd see in RCT like, ever.

    Such an original release. Really kept my attention for a while. Reminded me of the feeling of awe I had when first looking at Phatage's Unfriendly Invader.
     
    The black hole was incredible. Just looks so good. Has the right mix of rides and objects working together. I have no idea where your sensitivity for colours suddenly comes from, but it's a joy to see.
     
    Technical things I noticed: The park crashed my Open when clicking on Jovian Planet Rings. And it was very hard to rotate the view. Perhaps it would've needed some more black buffer around the map edge.

    Amazing creation here. I really enjoyed the space station and the attention to detail!

    @Sephiroth

    Appreciate it. I've always wanted to use that Ice palette but couldn't until now. For some reason I have this strange obsession with using terrible objects and using invisible track but hey, it works.

    As for the discussion, well, I guess it isn't a LANDscape, lol. However, I can almost guarantee that my next park will be even stranger.

     

    @Coasterbill

    Lol thanks, I wasn't quite sure how it would turn out at first but after seeing how those colorful RCTGuide water tiles looked on black tiles, I had to continue.

     

     

    @chorkiel

    Thank you, I've really enjoyed the Olympics because their objectives make good practice.

     

    @GammaZero

    Thanks a ton; nice to hear that you've enjoyed it. And yeah, I'm actually a little surprised there hasn't been a 'natural' space park made yet.

     

    @Posix

    Unfriendly invader was awesome when I first viewed it. I'm glad you feel similarly about this, I appreciate it. As for the black hole, it took a few trials until I went with something simple, I really liked the color combination, so I kept it.

     

    As for the Jovian planet rings, I think I've run into that problem once or twice. Sorry about the view though, I would have made it larger but because technically the entire map is blacktiled and already ambiguous in size, I was afraid it would be disqualified if I made it larger.

     

    @csw

    Thank you, and glad you enjoyed it. I've probably had more fun building the space station than anything else in RCT.

    Space Boats?

    This is such an amazing and original project

  • soluna%s's Photo

    Anyone can help? All I get are error trappers when I open this park, even with all the space data extracted.

    Congrats on gold. It's criminal that this doesn't have more comments.

    Don't forget that there are also some reviews and reactions in the 120x120 landscaping thread.

    Don't know how I missed this, but this is incredible.  Really hauntingly beautiful and brilliantly executed.  The only thing that would've kept me for pushing it toward spotlight would be that like space - much of it is kinda empty.

    Everything is of such a grand scale that there can't be too many different things to look at.

    It was also super cool to see the planning when I turned off the scenery and having the shapes all shadowed below.
     

    Amazing work!

    This is to RCT what My Blood Valentine's Loveless is as a rock record. It's so different that judging by the "normal" methods is completely missing the point.
