i don't understand why this maze isn't popular, and you're not bad either. you animate almost exactly like phantomisle which is probably the biggest stick death maze channel here. oh and this is for the comment on my announcement video. the only problem i see is that every maze you do your fps is set at relatively the same for each maze. try to make it like 1 or 2 fps's higher for each maze so that it runs faster. the key to getting smooth animation is to make your moves smaller. so for instance if you move your stick a centimeter per frame, move it half a centimeter to make the animation even smoother. the less you move, the higher you can set your fps. i'm not sure what you work on but i usually do 20-22 (however i'm bumping mine up to 24 for my new one). but as a tip of advice, if you run on around 12 right now, you will have a bad time jumping to 20 or 22. you do not learn in one maze. i'm not sure if you've seen this video but if you look for a video named stick death maze 1-4, that's actually mine. well at least on my old channel. my speed there is 16. before that it used to be 12 and so on until i got back to 10 or 8. like i said just practice and soon you'll be able to handle 20 or 22. just some minor nitpicks that could be improved as well. my first one is to make something that really draws people in as unique. in this one i've pretty much seen every trap in this at least 3 times. (including my door close death. i saw that :P) if you had like a flamethrower trap or maybe an acid pit it would be a little better, but really the maze is still good. just would be even cooler. secondly would be to never have sticks come in half way. the only exception i had to this rule is for kibble. he had pink come in late but that was like a pattern so it fit. and for the tiniest nit pick, the spikes on the first screen next to the lava pit were not the same width as everything else on the screen. but that's just me becoming a little over the top. however what's a review with out me saying what i loved. it had a nice classic feel to it and really had no bad parts in it. everything fit well and i found that the times that the sticks die were well placed. it was unpredictable and ran smoothly overall. a great maze and should at least have a big like/dislike ratio. sadly that's not the case for some reason but i'm pretty sure it was because light brown won :P keep animating
+XuticX Thanks for the review. Oh jeez, a faster speed? That's gonna be a toughie. I used to the slower speeds back then, cause I assumed it looked "smoother" when it was "slower". Well first of all, I don't really know how animate moving things like crushers, saws, etc. It's especially hard on a program like Stykz or Pivot, well, imo. BTW, I used Stykz to make this. But since Stykz is literally slow, has a ton of issues/errors, & hasn't been updated in more than 4 years, I kinda gave up on using stick entirely & starting to use Pivot Animator 4.2 more. Well, you can't make the basic colors always win, ya kno. :P I'm ACTUALLY working on a stick maze, but I have so much to do lately. If anything, it's animated WAY better than other 3 I've made in the past. Wish you'd get my opinion on it though.
Okay... There were some parts that seemed a bit lazily done in the beginning - I guess it's kinda normal to want to shortcut when you have lots to do. That said, it improved as it went along - that was nice. The purplish guy who was 3rd - what happened there? That kinda confused me. Also, what software do you use?

***** alright well i'll look forward to it
+FlareonTheFlareon Hey that rhymes *smoother when it was slower.*
good job! the only parts i don't like are the parts when the sticks had faces.
magenta is really funny at the end of the intro rooms hahaXD
That was Pink not Magenta.
Nuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu yellow was so close XD
Close but no cigar. XP
level up?
FLRN
Nuuuuu! I Voted For Yellow!!! X3
+TheQuietSpy Atleast yellow wasnt an asshole like red was
Poor Dark Purple.
Light brown
Okay...

That was Dark Purple teleporting, and it was probably one of the most laziest shortcuts I did.
I used Stykz for Stick Mazes 1 to 3.
I feel like you have something against blue
Dark Purple is a show off.
Well done, but what's the music?
The first song is Strange Talk - Morning Sun (Dillon Francis Remix)
The second song is an instrumental version of a Cave Story Rap (Title Theme Remix) by brentalfloss, which I'll let you look at yourself: ruclips.net/video/sJAiNs8Sf9s/видео.html
