OK guys I am 3/4 of the way done with Castle of Doom! Trust me when I say this map will be the largest and most challenging map I have ever made! Even more Epic Boss fight and Even more Epic puzzles and Parkour! I am including Lots of New features in this map from the 1.8 update including Armor stands, Water striding boots, Custom Titles and Custom banners for Looks. I am expanding the sound pack for this one and am going to have more intense testing prior to release. Being as how big this Epic map will be You can expect a release date some time near the end of this month. I will post some more screen shots tonight when I get off of work!
I am getting closer to completing Castle of Doom! I should say that I will be in Alpha testing within about a week or so... Alpha and Beta testing may take a while though... But for a teaser... There will be 2 different endings to this game that will be affected by a choice you make in the game.

Castle of Doom update: I am nearing completion of the map itself. It has well over 30 challenges many epic boss battles, park-or challenges, and an alternate ending! There are a minimum of 15 secret rooms in the castle and a very well organized gear progression system. There is a very immersive story-line and I don't want to rush the progress but i'm excited to say I'm getting close to completion. The game when finished will be the length of a full scale video game. A rough estimate now would say it should take about 6 hours of play time to complete. give or take an hour either way depending on level of skill and how long you take on side quests and looking for secret rooms.
Things Left to do:
Record Voices for Sound pack and finalize the sound pack then add it to the game
Integrate journals and some title screens. (some are done but it needs some more)
Finish outside scenery and polish up the castle (mostly trees and trails needed here)
Alpha test phase
post Alpha corrections
Beta phase
post Beta corrections
Final release... I'm looking at possibly a mid October release date.. maybe earlier if Alpha and Beta goes smooth. (my Alpha tester is pretty strict)
Thanks! I just spent about 2 hrs last night working on the .json script for the sound pack and got to record a few of the voices. Still have alot more voices to record though. Then its off to place the journals and then double check it for anything I might have missed before I let my Alpha tester have at it! But its coming along nicely!

Right away I'm confused... I dont know if I'm just missing something, but once you pass by the traders, you get 6 planks of wood. Then there's this pit that you have to cross, where you are instantly killed by magic if you fall in it. I assume you're supposed to use the wood to cross the pit but you cant place blocks since you're supposed to be in adventure mode. Why are you given planks if you cant use them? Was it supposed to change to survival mode?
ETA: The game also starts me on Peaceful and doesnt change... as such the spawners arent working. I guess I will manually change it to survival and turn a difficulty on.

First thing, Thanks for playing my map I am grateful for the feedback! Now onto the problems you are having... This map (Lake Doom) was designed to play in 1.7.10 not in 1.8. In 1.8 they changed it where you are not able to place any blocks at all in adventure mode. You will have to change the minecraft version in your launcher... Or go into creative just to fly past that one spot if you would like to avoid switching your minecraft version. You should not encounter anything else after that, that would have issues with 1.8 I believe. I have not tested this map in 1.8 so dont quote me... It was built tested and played in 1.7.10... Also with 1.8 there is a lockable default game difficulty change so that may be why it defaulted to peaceful. It should be played on easy - medium - or hard. If you have any more questions feel free to ask.
edit: on second thought since you have already opened and played the map on 1.8. Diverting it back to 1.7.10 now may break the map, leaving you with two options... either re-downloading and opening in 1.7.10 or just skipping the pit. I added a disclaimer to the OP in red letters after the stated version this was built on to avoid any further confusion. I may update this map to work with 1.8 in the future after finishing my Castle of Doom map, until then it is considered not compatible with 1.8.
I can't wait! And congratulations on 1000+ downloads!
Thanks! Also I named a miniboss in this new map after you! Wont spoil it for you but you will just have to find him when you play it! I have a little bit more voice acting to do and then It goes into alpha testing phase! (and yes I do all the voices myself )
Castle of Doom just hit alpha stage. Alpha stage and corrections will probably take about a week maybe two before I can advance it to Beta phase. I will keep you all updated. I will be making a trailer for this map soon as well.

Have the trailer done... Aricara uploaded it to her youtube channel and for some reason it split screened itself on final upload... Soooo... I should have that posted here either when I get off of work tonight or early tomorrow morning. My alpha tester still has Castle of Doom and is playing it with a fine tooth comb looking for bugs/exploits/broken areas/just plain improvement areas... It may take him a good week or two before he gets me his review of the map. Then I will be able to adjust and fix/add anything that is needed prior to Beta phase. If all goes good than I should have this map released before the end of this month!
