Survival Challenge! The Hover-throne

Archive: 10 posts


Alright, so I just put up a survival challenge. The Hover-throne is a really nice concept; though the level itself isn't all that glamorous, it works. If you wanna check it out, just look me up. If you like it, heart it (and me) and leave me a comment if you want me to check out your levels.2009-05-01 01:15:00

Oh. Good idea. I'll do that now.

So the goal in the Hover-Throne is to use the hover-throne (it's very small, and easy to control) to stay above the glass line without going too far off so that you fall into the gas on the sides and top. Point bubbles will only drop while you're above the glass line.

add [*img](before your link) and [/*img](at the end of your link) minus the asterisks, and it'll show the pictures instead of linking to them.

Not a bad concept, though i'm not entirely sure how its a survival challenge, cause unless the difficulty ranks up a lot later, its not that hard to stay alive IMO.

You really need to add a background though, dark matter is.... boring.

Yeah. I just wanted to get a basic concept up there while I was working on it. I could probably remove the ability to land the hover-throne if people find it too easy when they can just land and take off again.

PS: I didn't know if the img tags worked in this forum. Thanks. ^_^ Will do that next time.

There. I put the pictures on the actual page. ^^; I've actually had more plays on this level in its first 24 hours than all of my other levels.2009-05-05 00:04:00

The surroundings still need work... maybe decorate a little? or choose a background other than purple? because the colour of it made me feel a little queazy.
Other than that, a nice concept and I found it difficult and easy enough at the same time to make it a survival challenge, challenge being the operative word here. However, it really isn't pretty lol.

Just completely redid the background and the makeup of the level. Check it out when you get a chance.2009-05-07 00:44:00

played this today. I like the concept. It has a bit of a learning curve, but once you get the hang of it it's pretty fun. with enough practice I think people could go for a very long time though. The one thing I would probably do is to make that gas at the bottom VERY slowly rise until it kills you. That would keep people from landing and taking off, because that is kind of a cheat tactic. all in all though I enjoyed it.2009-05-08 02:32:00

Hadn't thought of that idea... It would make it get slightly more difficult as you go without having to do too much rewiring...2009-05-08 06:23:00
