If it was bigger/more spaced out, it wouldn't be a maze, the way it's designed. Lotsa traps and dead ends.
 
Roboashura, you tried the cramped map thing before.
It didn't work... too well.

Remember your mistakes, my son. Only then will you find true peace.

EDIT: Man, I take forever when I post.
 
This time, though, it's a maze, not a random thing. It has enemies and spikes and rings, plus, it's not even that cramped.
 
Mazes are bad design. It's inherently confusing and frustrating, especially since most levels naturally make the play lost WITHOUT trying to make a maze. (Verdant Forest)
 
Well, it's cramped just to make it hard. You'll get through, eventually. :P

I'm not saying it's hard. It's too damn annoying.

Roboashura, without playing the stage, I can say right now that it is horrid.

Cramped stages are bad. Mazes are bad. What's the point of playing Sonic in a cramped maze with no ability to run or determine where you're supposed to go?

Remember the last time you got lost in a video game stage and enjoyed it. I cannot think of a single experience where I was totally lost for more than an hour that did not lead to a trip to GameFAQs.

That's not challenge. That's being idiotic.

Mazes are my favorite levels in SRB2 of all time. :/

You're just saying that. I can tell.
