So it uses alot of the monster pack...i kept the theme fun and cartoony cos theres alot of nasty stuff goin on in this place and i wanted to make a fun atmosphere. I hope u like it...dont take it too seriously lol it was just a random idea i had mainly inspired by a level from the n64 game conkers bad fur day lol. NOTE: Not ur typical "hotel level" haha.

Just played it and I really loved it!!! First of all, beautiful visually, I love the cartonnish style of it! Some great and very well made ideas! (I loved the car and bridge crash at the beginning for example) The gameplay is very original, using the jetpack to get the 3 characters (which are awesome, perfect cut-out of the stickers) I really don't have anything negative to say about this level, everything is perfect to me! :star::star::star::star::star: + heart + tag Brilliant + comment GREAT work! Don't be annoyed by the negative tags, just some jealous kids | 2009-09-06 01:41:00 Author: dajdaj03 Posts: 1486 |
that is very kind of u thank u very much | 2009-09-06 09:23:00 Author: Bombw87 Posts: 126 |
update: changes made to the boss the timing of the blood is now slower so takes a little longer to push him to the other side. it was too easy before good times x | 2009-09-06 23:29:00 Author: Bombw87 Posts: 126 |
I'm reviewing the level as I play it. First thing I noticed was the decoration you had going on. Very nice! It kinda reminds me of an Mm level for some reason. The forest also has a cool atmosphere to it. I think is the mild foggy lights you have on.. I think. I looks good! In the part of the bridge, the camera angle kinda gave away the fact that it was going to collapse. I don't know if that's what you want or know, just a heads up. I think it would be cool to have a bat fly up right after Dracula disappears. Just a suggestion. You definitely have a style of your own. Very impressive. I like how the chairs, pictures and everything is in weird angles. You can truly see that you spent a lot of time in this level. I'm a sucker for details, and things like the reflection in the door knobs and TV made it for me. Great job! Btw, great use of the monster pack. Didn't really find anything wrong with the level. Great work. Keep it up. :star::star::star::star::star: & Brilliant When you get a chance, let me know what you think of my levels. | 2009-09-07 00:05:00 Author: javi haguse Posts: 744 |
wow thank u very kind. yeh i know ive been tryin to think up ways to cover up the cracks on the bridge but the car takes up 2thin layers and a thick one so if i put anything on the bridge to cover it up the car will just get stuck....poo. thanks for noticing the detail i sure did spend a while making wonky furniture haha. thanks for takin the time to play my level x ps. i just realised ur the descent guy Wow i luv ur levels ur new one actually made me jump put my skin hahah | 2009-09-07 10:01:00 Author: Bombw87 Posts: 126 |
I'm glad you like my levels and I had lots of fun playing yours! For the bridge, here's an idea: How 'bout you stick all the different shapes in the bridge to a thin layer of dissolve behind the bridge. That's what I had to do for the collapsing section in Descent 2. I don't think the cracks is what gives it away, it is mostly the camera angle. Those cracks can be seen as decoration. I you have a closer camera, maybe on the actual car, it will take everyone by surprise! Maybe add some camera shake too! Just some suggestions.. | 2009-09-07 14:26:00 Author: javi haguse Posts: 744 |
great idea ill try n figure somethin out in the week sometime. how do u make the camera shake by the way or is that a stupid question lol | 2009-09-07 17:14:00 Author: Bombw87 Posts: 126 |
Hi! I really enjoyed your level, it was well done, really polished and you choose materials wisely. The only problem is that the corridors are too long and the first time you visit them, nothing happens, so there's a little sense of void. Anyway, 5 stars and a heart! | 2009-09-07 19:32:00 Author: OmegaSlayer Posts: 5112 |
hey man thanks for the heart...yeh i know what u mean about the corridors i am planning on trying to jazz them up a little haha jus a question of fitting evrything in and stuff thanks for the feedback tho x | 2009-09-07 20:14:00 Author: Bombw87 Posts: 126 |
I think it will be difficult because you have to make two emitting machines, with lots of logics, one for the first walk and one for the return, but the level would really benefit from it | 2009-09-07 20:31:00 Author: OmegaSlayer Posts: 5112 |
agreed. got a few ideas just wonderin if my poor lil thermometer will allow it haha | 2009-09-07 21:34:00 Author: Bombw87 Posts: 126 |
Not a dumb question at all! Here is the trick: Set up the camera nearby on a small thin block of cardboard. This cardboard its gonna be attached to DM by a piston that moves rapidly - you see where I'm going? When you activate this camera, the screen is going to follow it and since it's constantly moving, it will give that shake effect. For best results, set up the piston to a short distance i.e: from 0 - 6. But set it up really fast. There's a lot of different combinations that can work for different things. I used this trick throughout both my levels. In both cases was when rocks were collapsing. If I'm not making any sense just PM me, I'll be glad to help with anything else. Hey, that's what we're here for right! | 2009-09-08 03:09:00 Author: javi haguse Posts: 744 |

It was a pleasure to play it! Great shapes, great gameplay, great atmosphere!! The only little problem: Franky lost his head while we carried him. So we had to carry him in chunks. :star::star::star::star::star: and a heart! Greetings Anna | 2009-10-02 13:16:00 Author: SantaAnna Posts: 51 |
