N-Art is a map category at NUMA. Arachnid implemented it in early NUMA history, but was subsequently removed. Due to popular demand, it was later re-implemented, and is now just as popular as any other category.
Example of an N-Art
An N-Art is a map that relies solely on visuals over playability, showing off what one can do with Ned. They can be incredibly challenging to create, as Ned was not created with purpose to build this style of map. Amazingly, some people manage to overcome this obstacle and create some fantastic works of art.
A short while into the recent history of N-Art implementation, many users began to dislike the category, as its offspring were flooding the Top Rated page of NUMA. Most playable maps were rated lower than these maps, and thus arguably did not get the attention they deserved. This situation led to Arachnid's implementation of Playable and Non-Playable sections for NUMA, allowing those who did not believe N-Art to be the same level of craftsmanship as Playable maps to have their own Top Rated list.
NOTE: N-Art does not count towards a user's Playable Rating.
