Ok so for more information about this park, seeing as there's a bit of discussion..

- It won by default, Italian Stallions failed to send in a park.

- I built 30% of this park the night it was due, stayed up til 5am to send it in. So I was a little pissed when it won by default, obviously.

- Overall, I think I built roughly 70% of the park; however the 25-30% RCTFAN built consisted of by far the best parts, and inspired my building hugely.

- We wanted to add a lot more, but ran out of time.

It's really cool to hear someone else's thoughts spoken aloud about parks you've built.. I'll keep an eye on this thread, would love to see what you guys think about some of my other parks... Myst, Corsair Veredian, Le Reve Parapluie and Red River Delta would be interesting to hear about.

Turtle, i hope you won't take offense, but i consider this a MAJOR turning point in ur work. I think this park helped u gain an understanding of when detail is necessary and when a simple textured wall can do the trick. I know from talking with you that RCTFAN was the major influence behind this work, but i would list it as a distinct change from Turtle "the brilliant player" to Turtle "the legendary player and king of atmosphere". Again, i'm gushing, this park remains beyond important to me. Looking back, i'm honored i got to work with you during H2H6. Monstrocity was such a joy once you stepped up to help me out, and the ideas you brought to the table were so refreshing and down-right atmospheric!

Turtle. Next stream i will continue to gush over ur work sir. Seriously though, even having heard this park was mostly ur work, the transformation from work before this park and after this park is incredible. This park is easily the reason i consider you an RCT legend and why i'm so glad i got to work with you. I know, im gushing again, BUT YOU GUYS HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH I LOVE THIS PARK, GAHHH

Ha, thankyou! FK I really enjoyed working with you in H2H6, especially seeing as Monstrocity was your baby, I was really impressed with the fact that you detached yourself enough to let me add some things. In fact, review that one as well please!?

Monstrocity is definitely something to include in a Turtle-special. I find that park very underrated.

I think cause it was park 1 of a long spree of Heaven's Kitchen parks that were phenomenal.

This is a lot better than I remembering it being. I always liked it for its atmosphere, but the ride design, landscaping, and "little things" is also incredible. Some conventions and textures are a bit dated but it holds up very well for an 11 year old piece of work. This came out when I was nine, jesus.

Both the minetrain and the boat ride have some very convincing setpieces, which totally sells it for me. Things like the torch lamps do it as well. Feels like the predecessor to Djinn in a way. 90%
