crazy storm survival challenge

Archive: 5 posts


Whats this... A survival challenge without bombs? !!!BLASTPHEMY!!!

Hii guys, i just wanted to tell you about my level. Ive had it out for a while but it hasnt got much attention.

Bassically, your on a boat and you have to collect point bubbles, easy right? Wrong! While collecting points, fireballs will rain from the sky (cause you know, they do that.) But as time goes on the fireballs will get more frequent and the seas will get rougher until your being tossed around like a sack on a boat in really rough seas while dodging fireballs and collecting points - oh wait....

eventually the fire balls will get bigger and giant scray fish will jump out and try to kill you. Please play and gimme feedback Thanks.

Ill do the first 3 F4F's

Heres some piccys

Just played it, and here are my thoughts about:
The idea really stands out, I liked it very much.
Some suggestions on how you can improve the general feel of the level:

- Don't take me bad but the boat is... hmm... UGLY!
You have to do something about it, starting from the materials in which it is built.
You can chose for the wood plank pattern material i.e.
Consider also to redesign it, maybe with a bigger one...

- The rain effect is nice but I guess it has costed you a bunch of thermo mercury, you can come up to something nicer and less costing for the other additions and changes you have to make in this level.

- The black background is something good to start with, but go on with something like clouds, mountains, lightnings, a pale moon... a black island far in the distance... use your imagination

- The sea... wootz... it is too... STOPPED.
Why don't you change the material and use stickered glass i.e.?
And you can also make it move in some way, can't you? ;p

I really liked how the boat moves and increases its bounces and speed of movements, really planned out and realistic, but this alone isn't enough...

Oh, and why you glued a purple led in front fireballs?
If you want to use a confused red light radius it would be better to glue the leds (smallest possible) BEHIND them.

With the right attention and implementations this survival challenge will easily become a must play, so, get to work!! lol

Rated :star::star::star: but it has potential.

I tried this earlier but just found it way too hard. The fireballs just appear on top of you with no chance at all to avoid them especially with the boat bucking up and down so violently. The idea of a survival challenge is that you should have at least a chance of surviving but that's impossible unless you are very very lucky and just happen to be standing in a safe place.2009-07-11 19:00:00

I finished having some goes on this survival challenge.

I thought the lightning was good.
and the premise was good but i do think the visuals need a bit of work,

his is probably just relaying what other people have said but i think the boat and /or water coukd use some jazzing up.

I dont know if it's possible depending on what layers you've used up or how much thermo you've used but you could have a background scrolling.

Clouds wouldnt be too bad, a really slow moon perhaps?

Obviously this would all depend on how you've created the level thus far.

I thought the boat went mega crazy after some time, which was fun.
Sometimes hard to avoid the fireballs but i'm sure thats intended.

Not to bad of a job.

i thought it was a :star::star::star: at present but a couple of visuals and it'd easily be a 4.

I'd appreciate it if you'd give my Boss level a go for F4F:
