Hm, I haven't seen ZX Ultra before, and I think it's pretty cool. The lack of theming and its high Intensity to Excitement rating hurts it a bit, though.
Maybe some Abstract or Mechanical theming would spice it up a little?

Cor, it's all looking quite tense so far. We're almost neck-and-neck, wouldn't you agree, Jonzu?

Of course I agree...  :approve:
Although I do think a key difference in our designs is how I based LoopScrew on an existing coaster design (In this case, Jester at Six Flags New Orleans, currently SBNO), whereas ZX Ultra seems to be its own, unique design.
Or at least, I don't think I've ever seen a Cobra Roll on a real-life corkscrew coaster (Except Vekoma Boomerangs).
 
I tried to base LoopScrew's theming on older looping coasters, hence the use of general theming such as trees, a Brick and Tile station, and the railings around the path and ride.

And thinking about it now, Maybe I could create a seperate thread for the next COTM? I'll do so once I get my first entry.

Speech!
I did already make one, but I did miss a detail out. LoopScrew is available for download below-
 
https://gametechmods.com/uploads/files/Loopscrew.zip
All you need is a copy of RCT2- no add-ons needed, instructions to install are included. I hope you enjoy using it as much as I enjoyed building it!   :approve:
