However, I do think that the map could use some additional polish. Reeper's criticisms were even more noticeable during gameplay. In addition, the tunnel to the well had some minor occlusion issues and I found the tunnel difficult to navigate due to the murkiness of the water (nothing you can do about this, though). I also found the start to be a little disorientating because the objective of the level was clear. This can be easily remedied by adding objective markers to the main fortress area and other locations (cave, houses, etc.).
Difficulty-wise, this level was spot on for me! I find difficulty the hardest thing to map for, and you seemed to get it perfectly right. However, I did have a lot of trouble locating the last AI enemy (in the cave). To prevent this hide and seek gameplay with the last few enemies, you can always add in a blue and red plant to allow the player to craft the syringe that increases the player's ability to detect weapons.
Overall, this map was fun and I look forward to your future maps.
