The Wooden Speed Run v1.1 (includes gameplay pics!)

Archive: 7 posts


The Wooden Speed Run is pretty much a timed obstacle course i made that has a variety of things in it. At first, you start out in a little car and travel through some scenery, and after that is where the fun begins. There are falling bombs, jet pack mazes, swings, and many more! Please play the level and tell me what you think i should change, and things i should add on to make the level longer and better. This level took me about a week and a half to make, so a lot of work went into it, so don't think that it is one of those "rubbish" levels people put together in about two minutes. to find the level, i think the easiest way would just be to text search The Wooden Speed Run, and it should be the only one that pops up, but if there is more than one, play the one that is by my username, bbdogdude.

Hey TC I tried out your level. I beat your score BTW

I really liked it and gave it 4 stars.

I wish it was a little longer though. I mean, I know it's a race and all, but still I felt it was shorted than what I wanted.

There was also an issue where where you shoot these blocks and they have speech bubbles attached to them but don't say anything. I don't know whether this was intentional, but it was very strange. It would be nice if the blocks at least say something if they have speech mouths attached to them.

I also felt that your level could use more in the visual department. I know that the level is wood themed but that doesn't mean that you have to use only one type of wood. There are lots of woods and you have many options to use them. Try accenting your level with different types of wood to give it a fresher look.

Gameplay wise, I felt it was a little too easy. You don't need to make it super hard, but just a little bump in difficulty would make it better IMO. Also there is only one way to get to the end (I think). What I would like to see, is branching paths and Score Bubbles. Different paths to the end give players reason to come back to the level to see which path gets them to the end fastest. Also Score Bubbles are pretty important in a level that is based around getting a high score. It wouldn't hurt to add some here and there. Make sure you put some thought on how people could obtain Score multipliers! Don't just throw some Bubbles here and there! It's also nice to put some Bubbles in hidden areas. It makes people (or at least it makes me) want to replay the level to see how to access those hidden areas and get a better score.

There's one more thing I wanted to add, but I forgot :blush: I'll edit this post when I remember.

It was a nice level, but it could be even better. I look forward to what you make next

Since you're doing a F4F, care to try out my Moon Temple? It's called "The Moon Temple Beta" and I made a topic here it's still on the first page I think. It's not finished yet, but let me know what you think from what you see.

yeah, those speech bubbles i used were just to position the camera. i will have an update making those camera zones. and plus i will add onto the level as it gets more popular. i have already updated it some. thanks for the feedback, and i really appreciated it!
