lovely, very beautiful map! the work put into it really shows, it looks amazing and has such a unique vibe to it... loved all the little vistas that were created with the windows and translucent floors and whatnot, really great stuff
it seemed HUGE to me, perhaps even bigger than ozy, though a huge part of that was because I was completely unfamiliar with the layout. once I got lost in an inner room or in a crook of maintenance, it was pretty hard to get myself back to the public hallways with the guides on them. the ability to orient yourself through a central path is one of the strengths of the "circle map" design, and while I don't think it's a design flaw or even not its own design choice to pursue something different, it does make the experience a bit overwhelming for someone going in blind
in terms of gameplay, the only real issue I noticed was that some bigwide stretches of hallway were so open that it seemed very difficult to repressurize areas once a hole had been blown in the floor. this is probably going to be a pretty big issue on classic especially, which has the pop to actually nicely fill the station. partitioning up some of the bigger public halls into smaller chunks may help, though I dunno if that'll have an impact on performance
