Frown TowntheWinnie
After over nine thousand years of not being able to smile, it's time for a new hero to save the people of Frowntown!
all
I just finished my level! A terrible time to suddenly start working on it again (I started it, what 8 months ago, and it's now the exam period ), but I'm glad I could get it out of the way.

This level is pretty much a polar opposite of all the other depressing stories in my other levels, so I'm curious to see whether the story ends up being funny or just cheesy and lame.
In any case, enough beating around the bush.

The level is called Frown Town and you can find it in Australia.

Hope you enjoy it. All feedback is welcome.

[edit]Searching for it might not work, so look for my other level, Welcome to Utopia (also in Australia) and then go to my profile.

Blah, I don't know what's wrong, but I can't seem to search up the level.

For now, it's still under Newest Levels, but otherwise if you can't find it, look up my other level "Welcome to Utopia" (also in Australia) and then just find Frown Town in my profile.

Also, pics!
I kept it brief so that the "story" isn't ruined.

ok - just played your level and thought it was cute. I liked the story and you had some funny stuff in there too. Couple of things you could fine tune to make it a little more polished.

- Take the word "sex" out of the text bubble. Seems weird and some may find it inappropriate for a rated E game.
- You've got a few extra points on some of the floor shapes. Take the corner editor and you can smooth those out. Looks better and saves thermo.
- Add some decorations to the town area. I know they are sad but you could have boxy decorations or sad flowers or something to liven it up a bit visually.
- After the paintinator area can you put a cutscene mouth that shows you go back downstairs. Wasn't clear to me where I had to go next.
- Your pistons are visible on the elevator and the electric obstacle on top. Might want to consider making those invisible as they travel through other planes... looks a bit strange.
- After the big wheel it's very easy to miss the checkpoint and then end up in front of the car not on it and there's not enough time to outrun the electric car. Maybe put a few seconds in between grabing the car and the electric one coming at you.
- On the orange sponge wheel that leads to the cardboard wheel with fire and green sponge. If you fall after completing the rocket part that pulls you over you can't finish the level. Maybe rethink that rocket part to somthing that doesn't stay on the left side.

Overall I think the two things this level has done really well is the story and how long it is. Keep creating I rated this one 3 stars - thanks for sharing it

Hey thanks, I really appreciate all the input.

I'll try to fix some of the problems you pointed out when I get the chance.

Alright, I made a number of changes to fix a fair number of bugs and some cosmetic things.

More fixes will be done, so speak up if you break the level so that I can fix it. xD

Okay, I think I've fixed most, if not all the bugs.

I really apologise to anybody who played the early version, since I really rushed to get this level finished. It should be fine now.

Shameless bump.

Has anybody else played the level?
