I almost uploaded this unfrozen also, Close one. Sorry about the stop on the chain lift I forgot about that. I get timing wrong a lot anyway

The layout almost feels like a outdoor wooden space mountain full of twists and turns few drops very unique for a wooden roller coaster. Supports probably should have been hand made so you didn't have such a mess of supports at the bottom but overall a fun ride keep it up!

Interesting ride, was a pretty fun too :) Few things to address however.

Technique
The trackwork itself was fairly good - you mimicked the style on a mouse ride well and there were only a few questionable pumps in the trackwork (which are difficult to point out exactly where due to the length of the track!)

The supports needed some additional work to make them suitable. Various places required cross bracing and lateral support. I appreciate its insanely difficult with a ride like this - but it's an essential part to a wooden ride!

The ride also suffered from stacking. You should've thrown in a tonne of MCBR's so that you could not only increase the throughput of the ride, but also stop the second train from standing at the top of the lift hill until the ride had completed the very very long course.

Adrenaline
I really enjoyed the lateral force control - you kept the rider leaning out of the seat for almost the entire ride - which is exactly what should happen on this kind of ride! I would've liked to see some more violent airtime - I remember riding the wild mouse at Blackpool and being petrified I was going to land not in the train car as the seatbelt perhaps wasn't tight enough (plus I wasn't holding on like a boss).

There were a few sections of the ride that didn't really link up very well and felt like seperate elements. Flow of the ride is very important!

The stacking also hurt your score here, probably spent as much time waiting to get off the ride as I did going round the track.

Uniqueness
Nice twist on a wild mouse, the inverse camber turns and cambered turns were a nice touch, and the ride was interesting throughout. It did however feel a bit repetitive. Was a good effort though.

Also a bit of expansion on the theme! Some old support built (Check out what Turbo achieves with supports) desolate wooden houses would've improved things ten-fold.

Realism
My main complaints about this are listed above (supports, stacking) but you did a good job keeping the laterals extreme so plus points for that.

Your score here would be improved if you added a bit more to the scenery around the ride, making the terrain more realistic and adding in queue lines etc.

Feel free to pm me about your rate!

A mouse wooden coaster. Not many of those are uploaded. Very few actually. This one had a good run on it, but you lacked technique in block placement. The second train waits on the top of the lift for the first one to finish the track thus causing train stacking. This is easily fixed by adding more blocks and they wouldn't even interfere with the flow of the roller coaster. I like the setting you set it in. The lightning sucks but the rain is cool. I don't find this all that realistic and the rider value is hit due to the stacking problem. I wouldn't want to ride it much if I had a long wait on the lift and at the end of the ride. You're showing improvement, just need to pay a bit more attention to detail. Keep improving! You're doing good :)
