This level is of a medium to hard difficulty and you only have one life of which to get as far as you can.

As you say, you only get on life and I've got to say I'm not a big fan of these type of level's because I'm rubbish at them. However I was determined to beat this level because it looked great. Most level's like this aren't very pleasing on the eye but this one certainly is. I didn't manage to complete the race in time (2 seconds out) so I'm definitly gonna have another go on this and complete it within the time limit.
4 stars

Yeah, I'm not normally a fan of this sort of level either. I thought i'd have a go at making one though, just to see if I could pull it off well.

GJ on getting to the end though 		2009-10-16 19:21:00

Yeah it's tough to make a one life stage and still have it be fun.

Here are my thoughts:

Pros:
-The visuals were very nice. This stage had a distinctive look, which is great.
-I also liked the whole story concept. The cameras everywhere were a nice touch.
-It was fun to play a survival type stage that wasn't all on one screen.
-There were some interesting mechanics in there, like the paint switches to activate the spring platforms, and the hamster wheel thing.

Cons:
-It felt a little on the short side, not too bad of a length for a survival stage, though.
- Not a major problem, but It might have been nice to see a bigger finish to the stage.

Overall a really nice job.
I gave you 4 stars on this one.		2009-10-17 09:40:00

A bigger finish? Like, more dramatic? I'll see what I can do..2009-10-17 12:46:00

Yeah, exactly.
I for one loved the premise... maybe you could expand on it somehow.
But, hey... it's your level. [laughs]

I played this level, love the concept, great visuals, some cool obstacles. I kept on dying at the part where you have a platform with a piston set to flipper mode though, it may have been because of my impatience though

I took Danceatrons advice and I made the end more 'dramatic', if you could call it that.

Basically now, when you get to the end your greated by a success sound (not mgs jingle), strobing lights, a contragulations sign springs up followed by a new 'Why not have a Chug Lite?' sign.

I also added more points in between obstacles to reward relentlessly smooth players.

You should be able to score higher now

EDIT : also, cool page 4

EDIT 2 : i'll also get on F4F on whispers in the darkness

EDIT 3 : Also, if anyone knows of any competitions or events going on at the mo, if they have an ingame sticker ad i'll put it up on a bill board for funnies 		2009-10-18 14:36:00

I liked the end. I got a laugh at the new "Chug Lite" Billboard.

Looks like you got a lot more plays. My advice really helped!
[laughs] Just kidding.
Kudos on getting to page 2 of Cool Levels.		2009-10-19 09:51:00

Ah i played this when it only had about 2k plays! I really liked it. I really lol'd at the "Do your bit, Fight Bomb survivals!" signs the part with the rocket was pretty kool. ( the first one)

I'd really appreciate it if you would play my level and give me feedback for The Canyon of the Three-Headed Beast, Thanks!		2009-10-21 03:49:00

Cool level - I like the real sporting event kind of vibe you've depicted. I'm running that Halloween Level Design contest but I doubt it would fit thematically into your level design as a billboard. 5 stars & hearted. Congrats on page 1 too.2009-10-21 06:09:00

Ahh, supa, you played it before it was cool to play it, your one of the OG sacks from way backs..

But seriously, I did mean to play your level, I never got around to it. I'll play it later today.

Also, Morgona, you got an in game sticker ad for your halloween competition I could use or would I have to make it myself?		2009-10-21 07:42:00

I don't have one at the moment. Given time I could probably make one.... you know how that goes 2009-10-21 07:48:00

This was very cool. Not your average "survival challenge". In fact, outside of the single-life aspect, it does not resemble any survival challenge I've ever played.

Excellent design and unique, fun gameplay elements. The rockets were cool, all the jump pads were well designed and fun to use, and the hamster wheel made me laugh out loud.

I did not finish the race (nowhere near, in fact) but it didn't matter because I was having too much fun to care. I did make it to the scoreboard on my own though!! Yay!

You got a f4f for me to play?		2009-10-21 21:40:00

If you like, you can play either of my 00Sack-Revenge levels [in my sig] (or both... or all 3 if you want the full series experience) , but it's not really necessary. They've had their day in the sun.

I'm always interested in people's opinions though, and am ever-willing to fix bugs or consider new ideas. So... up to you (I took the F4F off them a while back).

Thanks for asking tho! 		2009-10-21 21:58:00

Pretty cool level you've got there asbestos!
Nice visual style and a lot of fun to play. The fun/challenge level is also very well balanced and the mechanics are very fresh (loved the hamster wheel and the jumping pads).
Did have a few problems with the very first obstacle, i hope not too many players are put off by that. (it's probably just me, sucking at playing this game ) Wasn't so sure at first if a survival challenge idea was a good idea in a level like this, but after playing it about 10 times i think that was the right decision, otherwise i would probably just have finished it with a lot of deaths, now it's in my heart list hoping to finish it one day which will make me very happy, yay! (want to see that "dramatic ending" )
5 stars and a heart for you!

This level was really great! Unfortunately I was unable to finish beacuse I'm platformingly challenged. LOL

You had a great atmosphere in this level. I also loved the cameras! Nice addition!

Over all the level had a great feel, great style, great sound and everything was well suited with the theme. Because of this, I gave it a solid 5 stars! I guess I didn't heart it because I am not the biggest fan of 1 life levels. Still great though!

I'll be playing this again, that's for sure!

F4F my All Dressed Up level please and nice job again 		2009-10-24 17:50:00

Ok, i'll do All Dressed Up and that 00sack level. Misty, do you need me to do one of your F4Fs from way back? I'd have thought you'da gotten loadsa feedback by now

Also, platformingly challenged, LOL, not heard that one before.		2009-10-25 13:22:00

I really enjoyed this level and i played it about 20 times

what i liked:
the visuals were really good.
it had some puzzles and good challenges.
i liked the sponsors in between some parts of the level.

some things to possibly improve: In some parts of the level you may want to make some bolts invisible, it might just be me but i would liek it better if they were einvisible. Also maybe the tiem limit in the race could eb a bit longer, i wasen't done and it had ran out of time.

overall: i gave it 5 stars and hearted (i love 1 life levels)		2009-10-25 14:16:00

I played this level a couple of times and it is; Great!


I really like this level, because:

1- It has some great details, that isn't to much.
2- The style is kept throughout the whole level.
3- It's not to hard, not to easy.
4- There is a good use of the points. No one really gets to much.


There is one bad thing about this level though. It's not a major thing, but still, I thought I'd mention it.

The switch which you have to grab at the start, in order to start, is placed in an area to dark. I used a couple'a seconds to figure out how to advance, which should be the case, as a simple LED can easily solve this problem.

I honestly hope to see many more of levels from you, and I'm pretty sure I hearted you..
