I just startet to play your hold. Some impressions:

Entrance: -
1 South : Simple hack and slash with orbs. What about a green door leading to the west path instead of a yellow one?
1S1W : The guards get stuck and have to be "pulled" out. Not too easy, but the groups of enemies can be dispatched quick.
1S2W : Random tar room. Easy, but generates quite a mess. Nice to have well placed checkpoints here.
1S3W : Not the worst idea... plays quite interesting... :) However, the room is also timeconsuming.

All in all a simple but nice hold.

Nothing difficult and passed an hour on. My only complaint it that unless you do the north section last, you have to go back that way later and redo 1N and 1N1W, albeit without the roaches.

Fairly easy, maybe 3 to 4 brains.

My main criticism would be layout. E,S, and W you must complete and backtrack. N (unless you guess to do it last), you must complete, backtrack, and then retrack.

1N2E- unintended solution. Kill snake, then exit south.

This is a nice hold here. Some of the best rooms are to the east of the starting point. The north ones had a mix of hard and easy. The south rooms in my opinion were way too hard (except for the first one). I couldn't beat 1S3W. As for the west rooms, I couldn't make it past the second one (the one with the numbers 1-8), so I can't say much about it.
1S1W was WAY too much. Try and cut off some of the edges to make the room smaller; then 100 roaches won't be able to fit in that tedious chamber.
By the way, what's with the numbers in 2E?


Oh, wait, I think I feel like challenging myself. I'll try rewriting that in French.

Je ne parle pas francaise bien, mais je vais essayer.
C'est une bonne hold. Je pense que les mellieures salles soient au est.
Au nord . . . 1N n'est pas amusant. Mais je me suis amuse quand je jouais les autres. (voila est un example que je ne parle pas bien en francais). Especialement 3N.
Au ouest, il etait trop difficile! Je ne peux pas finir le deuxieme salle.
Quant a les salles du sud, il faut que tu nous donnes plus de save points! Et tu dois faire retrecir 1S1W; maintenant, il y peut avoir 200 roaches.
Et j'ai un question: Pourquoi est-ce que 2E ait des multiples de cinq?

Ah! Didouneto, ca fait plaisir de te revoir dans ce forum parce que tu es une des rares personnes a y parler francais. Je vais tester ton "hold" plus tard et je te dirais ce qui va et ce qu'il ne va pas. En tous cas ne repars pas pour qu'on puisse se parler souvent ici.
