This village contains jumps across gravel piles and through lava-floored houses. After this village (and another checkpoint), the player reaches an obsidian ship and some floating islands. These islands lead to another village. Three of six various trials, which will be listed later, must be cleared to advance to the next section of the map, and a checkpoint. |
The next section involves parkouring around dead trees and various other platforms to a small hovercraft, which teleports you to the city of Incendium. After a few short parkour segments through a building, the fourth and final checkpoint is reached. The final section of Incendium is a long endurance test. The player must parkour around the city on various platforms to reach the top of the largest building, where the end sign is located. | The next section involves parkouring around dead trees and various other platforms to a small hovercraft, which teleports you to the city of Incendium.

+ | ''Article written by Big_Big_So_Big'' | ||
+ | The vision of Incendium was first perceived shortly after my previous map, [[Roadblock]], was submitted to the board. The first intention was to create a moderate orange map consisting of several parkour segments linking to create a "road" to the end, the city of Incendium. As I started building, the original vision begun to drift farther and farther away from the reality of the build. It transformed slightly, becoming a map in which the player must parkour through multiple villages to reach a small aircraft, which would take the player to the city. | ||
− | + | The design choice of first village one was heavily inspired by [[Blazeville]], my very first map. The roads are made of gravel and andesite, while the houses have a nether brick palette, with some obsidian thrown in for fun. The gameplay was meant to be a fun mix of safety and endurance, with the easier parkour inside the houses killing the player if they fell. | |
− | The | + | The second village, unofficially named the Village of Trials, was very fun to build. I tried something new with the design, making the buildings mostly out of quartz (heavily redesigned a few days into the making), and adding leaves to the floor palette. I was actually pretty surprised by how good the green leaves worked with the red floor. Gameplay wise, this village is pretty unique. It's sort of a "choose wisely" type of thing. You may think you're good at a certain type of parkour, but you end up raging. I actually made the conscious decision to make most of the trials (save for Puzzle trial) only escapable by doing /kill. |
− | The | + | The city section underwent the most development is easily the city. I wanted to make this city look as good as possible, and my house building skills were next to nonexistent. Due to some miracle, I managed to recruit Powik, another green, to help me build the houses. Powik ended up building more than just houses, however. He added beautiful nether trees and nice pathways to the map. Without Powik's help, Incendium wouldn't be what it is today. |
− | The | + | The parkour in Incendium was inspired a bit by another red map, World Two-ur. It might not seem like it at first, but it was made to be similar to said map's end biome section, in the fact that both that section and Incendium's parkour are harder than the rest of the map. Around this time is actually when I decided Incendium would be red difficulty. I spent quite a bit of time creating and editing the parkour, and even added a few callbacks to my previous maps. The Blazeville reference is obvious, do to Blazeville's signature platforms being used in the gameplay. I also added a Roadblock reference in the surrounding area, but it is, for the most part, unviewable from the map. |
− | + | Overall, this map was very fun to make. It is the achievement I'm most proud of in Minecraft, and I can't wait to watch it grow with the server. It is currently located in FFA, rewarding 18 points upon completion. | |
