Temple

!WORK IN PROGRESS!
In the midsts of the Serberanian Rainforest, you find an old, abandoned temple. Where ancient sackboys once thrived is now a crumbling wonderland of foliaged beauty and exploratory potential.

This level is a work in progress, remember that!
There are several puzzles in this level, and although it is short, the thermo is already about halfway filled. Must be from the beauty I tried to incorporate into it. Anywho, this is my F4F level. Expect updates regularly, as I'm working on this pretty much non-stop! Also, there's a 2-player area, so don't be shy.

(Sorry, no images!)

KNOWN ERRORS:
If you're dumb enough to drop the ball from the second challenge into the red gas pit in the beginning then you're gonna have to restart the level.

ALSO:
I'm looking for ideas - I've posted another thread like this one on other forums, but nobody there seems to understand LBP mechanics. To be honest, this level is remade from one of my earliest, and I think I've lost a lot of my creativity over that timespan.

OK time for my review:

Pros:
+ Beautiful visuals
+ Good puzzles
+ Water effects are magnificent
Cons:
-Tree's have cardboard for the wood part ( cant remember what the middle of a tree is )
-To short
-The name throws people off from playing so add something adventuris

This was a nice level, and the stickers added a lot of color, so it wasn't some empty temple level.

The game play was good, but it took me a little while to figure out that the yellow lit ball activated the door. The part with the waterfall was also a little confusing, I wasn't sure what to do there, so I jumped from the high tree swing, to the lower tree on the other side (This was difficult to grab since the waterfall was in the way.)I then pulled the tree down, and I could use it as a bridge. By the way, I could use the jetpack to get into the 2+ area, and you put a jetpack remover there, but I could fly above it by pressing against the roof.

At the end of the level, I thought it was very short, but then I saw that it said WIP at the end, so I remembered that the level wasn't done yet. I would've liked to see more.

The name could use refinement, but "Temple" probably isn't the final name, right? Unfortunately, I forgot what I rated the level, I think I gave it :star::star::star::star: stars.

I don't have any F4F levels, but it would be nice if you could look at my "Jazz" level, or my other level "The Monster's Mansion". Either is fine.

-going as I play...

-Looks nice, I see what you were going for with the tree trunks, I think, unless that's just something you haven't applied stickers yet. maybe just a bit of brown pixel gradient.

-Love the Glowing leaves falling off the tree. really nice!

-the rolling fire log section: You may want to block the point where the logs spawn and expire from view with a thin layer object. So far your level is so carefully crafted, and this sticks out in comparison.

-waterfall section: the music you chose really sets the mood nicely. Problem; the trigger zones between the waterfall music and the previous are too close together. and when you walk up the hill to the jump, it jerks your ear around pretty good.

-Nice touch, the thing at the finish. doesn't block your view too bad, and give s a final impression.

That was enjoyable! I gave it 4:starwill likely rate it 5 on completion) tagged it "pretty" and hearted it so I can track it's progress. I look forward to seeing this level evolve.


I'd like it if you could check out my level, "Transcendental Sackitude" , and let me know what you think on it's thread. I noticed a little similarity, so I think you'll enjoy it.
