Luckily whilst busily ranting on his computer, those pesky trolls have taken all of Yahtzee's supply of Branston Pickle. A chance for redemption! http://img10.imageshack.us/img10/4839/aphoto2e.jpg The pesky trolls themselves. http://img10.imageshack.us/img10/9272/aphoto3.jpg Wait what? Does this story go deeper than just those nuisance trolls? Guess you'll have to play to find out; PSN: asbestos101 Level: Zero Punctuation : Quick-Time's Revenge This level must have taken over 30 hours and after two 'fail to load level' scares it's finally finished. 30 hours may seem like a lot but it's spread out over the past month and a half. Please comment and rate and post your F4F level. Have a good one.

I love ZeroPunctuation! I actually just saw his review of LBP last week. (Not all bad - many things were "made of chocolate") I'm going to HAVE to check this out. | 2009-06-13 19:51:00 Author: Morgana25 Posts: 5983 |
looks cool and i love ZP ill play it ASAP | 2009-06-13 21:31:00 Author: Racroz Posts: 406 |
Cheers guys, remember to say what levels you want me to take a look at. | 2009-06-14 00:55:00 Author: Asbestos101 Posts: 1114 |
Checked it out tonight and I think you nailed the ZeroPunctuation style! I love the trolls and the characters are done great! I did notice a few spots with stickers showing raw edges of material (might want to have a once over to polish those kinds of things) The boss was brutal....I didn't finish it yet. There were a few parts that killed me immediately when I respawned but I need to go play it again to get you exact details. I was in a hurry and didn't jot down notes the first time through. As it stands now I rated it 4 stars because I think you captured the look of the original and had some good challenges in there. I'll re-evaluate it when I play it again and pay more attention to some of the technical stuff. Great idea for a level though - have you emailed Yatzee? You should! Although he's likely to bash it, just because he can.... | 2009-06-14 06:24:00 Author: Morgana25 Posts: 5983 |
Very cute level, done rather well in the "yatzee" style Only things i think should be changed are some visible pistons and key switches. (the troll stealing the pickles is on a visible piston, the cube puzzle has a visible green key switch, and the gas has a visible blue key on the left.) very good job, it is impressive work indeed if you can make something enjoyable out of one of Lord QTE's inventions. (loved the "press x" reference ) | 2009-06-14 06:24:00 Author: Burnvictim42 Posts: 3322 |
Not having ever heard of QTE or Zero Punctuation, I found this level still pretty gosh-darn amazing. Smiling the whole way through. Amazing style, especially the little enemy dudes. And the use of physics to get things done was great. Lord QTE was fun Stickers sometimes fail to display properly on large pieces of material; to fix that, you just have to shrink the objects that're messing up. 5-starred. | 2009-06-14 06:44:00 Author: Loius Posts: 342 |
You should check it out Loius. It's not G rated but it's funny a heck for gamers. He does reviews all in one sentence really fast and animates them with silly graphics... very much like this level. Check out the link! | 2009-06-14 06:49:00 Author: Morgana25 Posts: 5983 |
Just watched the one for inFamous. ... ... Great, now I have another way to waste time. :| And now I even more appreciate this level, also. | 2009-06-14 08:34:00 Author: Loius Posts: 342 |
I think that most of the sticker errors are down to lots of stickers on screen. It's hard to fix. I'll fix those visible pistons and such in a moment. | 2009-06-14 12:36:00 Author: Asbestos101 Posts: 1114 |
Ok, I just fixed the levels problems with yellow BG not showing up correctly. I didn't know you could fix those sorts of errors by shrinking the object size. I had a lot of BG behind the actual level that didn't need to exist, so after I cropped it the problems basically went away. I went through the level and fixed the visibility issues as well | 2009-06-14 13:03:00 Author: Asbestos101 Posts: 1114 |
Just played it, just behind you on the leaderboard . I loved it! Press X not to die was awesome, the start was excellent. Really got the art-style down . Thought there were a few clever bits here and there in the simple puzzle designs. Really liked the catapult. One thing, change the prize bubble positions slightly at the bit above the jetpack puzzle. I couldn't get all on each side in one sweep (I'd get a few out of the first 5, the ones you get when falling are fine) and it seems like you should be able to. Change the positions a little so that you can get all on one side if you're hanging from the very bottom of the third piece of polystyrene. Overall really liked the level, cool bosses (though if you run at the very start you can get behind the first one and he's easy from that side... second one was good, again if you run to the very right and stay there you can avoid all the shoes) and great humour and art style. Give it 5 stars, mostly for the art-style and because I had a smile on my face most of the time . | 2009-06-14 14:02:00 Author: Burrich Posts: 1018 |
I'll get tweaking those bubbles. <3 front view | 2009-06-14 18:51:00 Author: Asbestos101 Posts: 1114 |
Yeah it's great. I hate going into the pause menu though, I wish changing views was mapped to L3 and changing grid sizes was mapped to R3. | 2009-06-14 19:20:00 Author: Burrich Posts: 1018 |
But that's copy and flip! You mean L2 and R2 | 2009-06-14 19:22:00 Author: Loius Posts: 342 |
But that's copy and flip! You mean L2 and R2 Er... oops! Completely forgot about those :blush: Still they could be used as that when nothing is selected... but yeah that could be a bit confusing. My bad. And L2 and R2 are being used already too . | 2009-06-14 19:29:00 Author: Burrich Posts: 1018 |
I updated the level a little bit. I made the first boss a bit harder, he now farts timem explosives and his arms and legs are deadly now, so when he sweeps along the floor you can't get hit. I also made both lots of swinging points bubbles easy to get first time around. Cheers for the feedback guys! | 2009-06-14 19:31:00 Author: Asbestos101 Posts: 1114 |
Er... oops! Completely forgot about those :blush: Still they could be used as that when nothing is selected... but yeah that could be a bit confusing. My bad. And L2 and R2 are being used already too . Are they? I was sure them was the 'arm' buttons. .... oh, I left out the last line of my post. >..< It was supposed to read 'L2 R2 etc. ... After all, who needs arms in create mode?" or something equally clever. But they do layers when selecting things too. So just, like you said, have it control grid/whatever while nothing's selected THIS LEVEL IS AWESOME go play it right now if you haven't everyone. Then go play Asbestos's other levels, they're equally awesome. | 2009-06-14 19:47:00 Author: Loius Posts: 342 |
THIS LEVEL IS AWESOME go play it right now if you haven't everyone. Then go play Asbestos's other levels, they're equally awesome. You make me :blush: Anyone want me to F4F their level whilst we're swapping help? | 2009-06-14 19:55:00 Author: Asbestos101 Posts: 1114 |
What a great level. Pros -funny design and dialogue -You stuck with the black and yellow style throughout the level. -Using pysics to get things done was great. -The bubble were placed nicely. -The boss was cool. Cons -The boss had me confused at first, i was waiting for an opportunity to hurt the boss in some way.You might as well add a infinite checkpoint at the boss too.Its at the end of the level, and its not exactly easy for the average gamer, low ratings are right around the corner everytime someone has to start over. -The dialogue bubble always disappears before i have a chance to read it. Maybe make it stay up longer? I really cant come up with any cons, this is a solid level. 5 star and hearted. | 2009-06-15 06:25:00 Author: Jrange378 Posts: 573 |
Hi there! Your level is awesome! I just really enjoyed every moment of it. Even the bosses, and I usually hate bosses (because usually they are either to hard or just badly designed) but I loved yours, although I was wondering if i was supposed to be attacking the last one, in the end I just pressed x enough and I won! lol! The art style of the level was great too, really stands out from the crowd. Actually I cant think of anyway to improve it, except to make it longer, so well done! 5 stars and hearted. Please F4F my level - https://lbpcentral.lbp-hub.com/index.php?t=t=12676 cheers! | 2009-06-15 12:10:00 Author: chillum007 Posts: 228 |
Your not supposed to have to hurt Lord Quick-Time Event as such, just beat his annoying challenge If you watch the real Zero Punctuation you'll see that he calls QTEs his arch nemesis and hates their inclusion in games, so I had just had to use him Thanks guys though, the feedback in this level has pushed me to improve it and i'm getting lovely comments like the two above this post! | 2009-06-15 12:24:00 Author: Asbestos101 Posts: 1114 |
Wow, what a level... The design & looks are amazing. The characters look great and it has that special Zero Punctuation feeling. I love the gameplay, it's a nice platformer with a bit challenge. The enemies are simple, but the bosses are really cool and fun to fight (although I didn't beat the second one ). I enjoy when people put secrets in their levels and you have some, big +! My fav. part? Well the car ride , that was fun to watch. 5 stars, heart & beautiful! EDIT: I demand feedback! please...:blush: | 2009-06-15 14:17:00 Author: blizzard_cool Posts: 752 |
Oops, 2 things. I forgot to Feedback you guys, i'll do puzzle island and icehold moutain NOW. Also, i've since been back and cosmetically changed a few bits to remove as much of the sticker bg issue as I could. I also added some more scenery on the castle section like ramparts and turrets and such. As I said, brb playing those two levels. edit: levels played and fedback. | 2009-06-16 14:45:00 Author: Asbestos101 Posts: 1114 |
WOW, awesome level! It looked great and had a bunch of different gameplay I've never seen. The boss was great as well. 5 stars and a heart from me. | 2009-06-16 17:08:00 Author: brnxblze Posts: 1318 |
Nice mechanics throughout, my favourite was the timed explosives at the end. :hero: Maybe this level would help yatzee see there is more to LBP can his review talks about. | 2009-06-17 02:18:00 Author: midnight_heist Posts: 2513 |
My levels on there : http://lbpreviews.blogspot.com/ NICE (be warned the reviewer uses naughty words sometimes) | 2009-06-17 15:54:00 Author: Asbestos101 Posts: 1114 |
My level has improved a little bit since that video ^^ Through the process of publishing and republishing several things in my level broke, like the guy with the flaming hammer wasn't moving, the crushing ceiling got broken and things near the 2 player puzzle got detached -.- S'all fixed now | 2009-06-18 22:42:00 Author: Asbestos101 Posts: 1114 |
