Art Maps, sometimes referred to as “wall art maps”, is an event for creating aesthetically pleasing levels. In this category, the performance is not the focus; the player simply guides the viewer through the map.
Unlike some other events, Art Maps are played in first-person.
Suggested Game
Beat Saber has a well-established art map community, but you’re welcome to enter with any game.
Performance Tips
Use color and space creatively
Transition well between different environments
Use visuals to amplify the experience of the music
Show mastery in creating an artistic experience with its own unique style.
Inspiration
Inspiration videos are not perfect examples and almost never fully comply with Rhythm League rules. They’re just here to give you ideas. Remember to review the rules carefully.
Scoring
You’ll receive 1-10 points in each category, with 5 being “typical among other entries in this event.” That score is then multiplied by a percentage weight. Higher percentages make a category more important to your total. The best possible score is 100%.
The scoring system is subject to change.
