I am working on a melee combat game called Skeletal Frenzy, and I just made the first map, which is a Gladiator Arena.
I’d like to hear your feedback on how the map looks. Personally I feel like it’s a bit empty, and even tho there will be 32 players actively fighting on one map, I’d like to add more details, so if you have any suggestions on how to improve the map, voice them!
Also as shown in the video, there will be traps in the map, like fake sand that falls into spikes. You can suggest other obstacles that should be put into the map!
The Game is currently private, so you won’t be able to play yet, but it will be released on August 29th, so if you’re interested, click the follow and favorite buttons on the game’s page to not miss the release, there will be bonuses for first players within a week!

I think the map needs quite a few spectators, that would add to the feel of an arena. I’m not a builder so I can’t say much else. The game looks awesome and I will be following your profile for when the game comes out!
Done! Now there are spectators that randomly cheer playing animation and a sound (The only good cheering sounds I could find were russian, but it adds to the feel xD)
Also the spectators of course will be spread across whole arena, I just wanted to get feedback on them too, before duplicating
@PrizeCounterPuncher , @Valkyrop Thank You for the feedback!! There is already a ragdoll script for combat (when kicked in the head the character will ragdoll), I will add the ragdoll on the death too.
They wait randomly from 6 to 25 seconds before cheering again, it’s just a coincidence that 2 of them started cheering together When there will be many spectators this coincidence will have a less chance of happening
Do you mean the whole area of the map, or the height of the wall? If you mean the area, there may be 32 players in this 1 map at the same time, so if anything it might even be a bit small
That’s pretty smart, you can also make them play random emotes rather than the same emote every time. I would also add an idle animation like @Icantliveatlife suggested.
I think that the scale proportions is wrong. Here is an arena I made a few years ago, as you can see, the proportions is quite different, and it makes the characters feel more the correct size. I’m aware that you go for a more cartoonish look
Thank You for the feedback! I think making walls smaller would make it look weird, but maybe I’ll change spectator area a little bit, so that they have a more comfortable look to the arena.
Maybe if there are less players in a server, AI would replace them and attack instead? That could add some more chaos into the arena, when the map becomes occasionally empty.
