  First Impressions: It looks like there is a lot to love about this project. I like the homage to the original rct scenario. I also love how much there is to check out. I immediately noticed that there are some impressive hacks in this park. I also notice that your really put the "forest" in forest frontiers in this project (There is a whole lotta trees lol)

   

  Foliage and Landscaping: I think this is the weakest part of this project for me. There no much in the way of landscape changes and the foliage is pretty much just spammed everywhere. It would have been nice if you had taken some more influence from the scenario and had a couple hills at the back of the map to break everything up. In general, I always find that it looks better when you organize foliage into kind of clumps. This allows you use foliage more intentionally to frame things and also lets you leave some dead space or emphasize stuff like flowers and small foliage.

   

  

   

  If you use those strategies, you can turn this area from just being a sea of tree objects into an interesting natural looking area with flower, little scenes with animals, and other more interesting things. 

   

  Architecture: I thought the architecture was one of the highlights of this park. There is a lot to love about the building design in this project. In general the buildings are all really cute and do their job well. I love a lot of the little scenes that you made like the dive show with the crowd. This little clump of buildings was also amazing

   

  

   

  The picture above is probably the strongest area of the park. I also really liked the little main street area with all of the buildings. 

   

  Rides and Coasters: Like I already said, there is a lot of fun and difficult-to-make flat rides in this project which is impressive. I love the swinging ship and "space ring". The water rides are also all fun, the log flume in particular is great! 

   

  The coasters all look pretty solid! I love the old-school wooden coaster and the dive coaster is also fun. I love this little path interaction here

   

  

   

  "Storm Surge" is also cool but I'm not a fan of the 2 brake runs and its a bit weird that the train has to wait at the second block section for like 20 seconds. The coaster infrastructure was good for the most part but there were too many supports in some sections. Here for example you could probably remove half of the supports and it would look better. 

   

  

   

  Overall: I'm really happy that I checked this park out and it shows a lot of potential. I'm really looking forward to seeing more work from you! I rated this park 60%

  Weird, I designed Storm Surge (modern Vekoma) to run without waiting on block sections, and in my OpenRCT it runs as designed... Which is kind of weird.

   

  Those Supports of the B&M invert are meant to simulate Nemesis' Reborn sharp turn with also have 2 extra supports added to reduce forces on the track. That is why I made this design choice.
