    This map was unplayable because it was so slow for me. The triggered cinematic (banelings spawning) happened on every egg, over and over again. I couldn't figure out how to avoid it, and I decided I didn't want to watch it 100 times and quit.

    I appreciate the effort, but that cinematic is a deal breaker for me.

    good job,

    some problems with triggers won't take too long to add a few "trigger offs" so that some cinematic dont loop

    I just hope Blizzard customizes Za'gara, even if they just give a couple tentacles or centipede legs. They already used a queen as a boss in Liberty, and it was pretty lame. The flying queens in sc1 were scarier.

    Ok. That mission isn't bad but there many important things to fix.

    • Zar'Gara collected only 1 egg so there was no competition who is faster collector.
    • Some upgrades required Hive but player can't build Hive
    • Kerrigan's portrait was only white box.
    • Camera was in wrong angle after last cinematic.

    Is that 1st map of HoTS available somewhere? (Blizzard version) Or why this map is named "Heart of the Swarm"?

    In the actual mission she is called Za'Gara, not Zar'Gara :)

    Please rename her.

    Okay, here are my thoughts: first of all, after I got 100 eggs, I didn't win, so I quit. Second of all, when I killed Za'gara, she burrowed, then unburrowed and died, which was kinda weird. Also, Kerrigan respawns only once after she dies. If she dies again, she never respawns.

    By the way, If you really want to remake 1st mission I'd suggest watching this for dialogs and this(in russian language, feel free to mute it) for terrain/layout references.

    As a side note, I think custom unit models should worry you least right now.

    Btw, one major thing:

    She is named Za'gara. Not Zar'Gara :)

    Ok. 1.1 Is now availible. Sorry for the Problems, im a really newbie. I add some new features, and watch some Blender tutorials, so i can made my own Units. :D

    Yeah.. the lack of deeper design is apparent. Attack waves never came (except periodic 1 ling or hydra), and I won game by simply massing roaches. But Wacclian already mentioned that.

    Not repeating what he said you should polish objectives(What if I forget that I need to capture 100 eggs?) and start screen(add button-press wait and make objective/story more apparent). Egg capturing should not be done through killing eggs. It looks silly that way.

    Anyway, it's all understandable, you'll get better with experience, I'm sure of it. If you have any questions or want more feedback you can send me a pm.
