Elaborate please with specific examples...

Any way I can make it better?

Are the spelling mistakes supposed to be "cute", or are they accidental? Because they are driving me crazy.

he is right - i think this is good idea, and here are some changes that should be changed
1. Too many places, doodle earth is good because of the size this is toooooo big
2. Change the text to something more like a 5 year old handwriting (chalkboard or comic sands)
3. Check the siz limits, this looks way to big

I think this could be good but you may need to take a different approach

Cute


Personally, I just find them infuriating. Doodle Earth has no spelling mistakes, just silly names.

Did you even read the 'how to make a map' topic?
http://www.conquerclub.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=40463


It explains a lot of things, including what settings maps have to be made for and the map size limits.
The size limit is 800 px across for Large. Yours is at 1024. you'll have to change it or you'll never make it out of the drafts forum.

i don't think that there should be any fancy gameplay (the aliens +ufo's) also the names should be drawn out just like the title

i think that we should have all of the planets, some aliens, the sun, some rockets, and maybe stars or asteriods. There should be only 18 or 19 territs, an no fancy gameplay

Well for one thing there is a difference between a doodle and a scribble. For the most part this map is primarily scribbles that any 4 year old can do. If you're trying for the feel of doodle earth maybe going back to look at it would be good. You'll notice that the lines in doodle earth are all clear. Even the drawings between the continents are well defined and clean. The ones in this proposal are, shall we say, NOT. While the whimsical nature of Doodle is brought out in the names and the description on the side, all the artwork is stuff than an adult might doodle (my own doodles don't look as good). The idea is not to make it look like a 7 year old drew the map but rather to smile at the whimsy of a 7 year old drawing a map.

I think this is a good idea, but honestly your going all wrong with if. First of all there should not be anything special like you have(The attacks between UFO's). Secondly instead of using the aliens and UFO's, you should be using planets with some asteroids. there should be about the same territ count as Doodle earth. Like i said good idea, just wrong way to go about it.
