O and btw what do you guys think about a 45 sec. loading time.  

 do something interesting with it so its not just a blank screen for 45 seconds.

actually, first try to optimize that down a bit. then add in a loading screen with an animation or a loading bar telling what stage of loading you are in. this will actually slow down the load time a bit, but it will make the perceived loading time shorter.

No a map is ten of those levels with NPC's bosses and enemies and other stuff. Also today I implemented Spellshapers idea of motion and it works also i put an option into the pause menu so you can change to cruise motion or to one block per button press if you get that.
@elfprince: Yea thats what I was thinking about doing

Yes for every 10 stages(1 map) there will be a 45 sec loading time but you won't be allowed out of a map before beating a boss. But I will also be making one with uncompressed maps and a loading time of 5 secs.
