| Looks cool! If you could post a comment on my profile so I remember to check this out, I'd appreciate it. I see a robot, but where's the carnival though? | 2009-10-26 21:49:00 Author: Incinerator22  Posts: 3251 |
The name Robot Carnival is inspired by 1987's Japanese anime which featured a handful of shorts directed by different directors. Although the level itself have nothing related or any similarities between the anime. The "carnival" is the level's journey containing only robotic theme, not your usual carnival i must say.  | 2009-10-26 22:13:00 Author: yuukun_uk Posts: 8 |
| I loved it up till near the end of the first boss. You did a great job on almost everything until that point. I couldn't finish the level due to a bug. The part of the second boss that shot the bullets got stuck in that hole on the bottom of the screen. I didn't want to replay because it was a little too frustrating. The Good - I loved the atmosphere up to the jetpack part, very cool, you obviously put a lot of effort in it. - Challenge felt about right up to the jetpack part. - Pretty much the level was just plain epic up until the jetpack portion. - - Although I thought the rotating maze was cool. The Bad - Everything after the first boss just felt tacked on to create artificial length. Like it should have just ended after the first boss. - The bosses felt like they relied to much on chance then skill. - Everything after the first boss felt rushed visually, and the near the end I actually wondered if I was playing the same level. Overall cool level. | 2009-10-27 00:29:00 Author: Unknown User  |
| I loved it up till near the end of the first boss. You did a great job on almost everything until that point. Thanks for playing!! And many thanks for the feedback. Agreed with most your comments. I couldn't finish the level due to a bug. The part of the second boss that shot the bullets got stuck in that hole on the bottom of the screen. I didn't want to replay because it was a little too frustrating. Is this the hole at the bottom on the right side (in the square red & green room)? i know what you mean, it's a 10-15% chance it does this and it's not an easy fix because I looked into it before and I have improved it. Thanks for notify this problem. Everything after the first boss just felt tacked on to create artificial length. Like it should have just ended after the first boss.  Feeling sad now, deep down I know it's true. Everything after the first boss felt rushed visually, and the near the end I actually wondered if I was playing the same level. I know what you mean, infact myself have quite a few criticism on my own level, although it's done and dusted and won't be changed at all. I will put my time to make my 3rd level which will be completely different to what i've done so far. One of the reason why it felt like a different level during second part. Let me explain, the first half it's the junk yard and second half entering high security to the master area which had a clean look overall. however, the design is very different due to my long break in between. you see, the whole of the first boss and second half is made last Christmas 2008 (MGS pack), which was left for 9 months before I revived it, my creativity had change during this time as you can see the differences, although there is no excuses for the lack of intergration. I will of course learn from this not to leave unfinished levels for such a lengthy time because I almost forgotten how to use the tools. :blush: The bosses felt like they relied to much on chance then skill. Do you mean it's too hard? I have a video [Spoiler] showing me beating the first boss without dying starting from 2mins 45secs and 7mins 43secs (final boss): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zWtBZPwu6UQ Anyway, really appreciate your reply! Now... My next project... Hmmm..........  | 2009-10-27 11:14:00 Author: yuukun_uk Posts: 8 |

Although, that video video is going to make me rethink that statement. | 2009-10-27 12:05:00 Author: Unknown User |

Yes, I was aiming for randomness, you need to be highly alert since there is no pattern. I'm not a fan on pattern attacks, much prefer the flexibility to choose the right spacing when to dodge. I know how you feel, I did intented to set the level in high difficulty. I'm a R-type and Contra player, nothing is hard compared to those classic games. | 2009-10-27 13:59:00 Author: yuukun_uk Posts: 8 |

I didn't want to replay because it was a little too frustrating. the bug is now fixed, along with a few adjustments on the final boss.  | 2009-10-28 10:32:00 Author: yuukun_uk Posts: 8 |
