Electric Banana Peeler Factory [From Water Beta]

Electric Banana Peeler Factory [From Water Beta]
by PSN: Teebonesy

Ported over via a back door from the Beta into the main game, behold: It's the Electric Banana Peeler Factory!
*gasp!*

What in the hell is that, you ask?

Just know that it's a boat full of cool stuff to see and do. I didn't get to squeeze in many secrets, but this is way more about the level of detail on display. I spent a laughable amount of time making my own custom stickers and objects. There's more poo jokes per square inch than any other level I've done. It's pretty and it's disgusting all at the same time. It's absurdly whacky, and I love it.

It's a boat, it's a level, more than anything else it's just a playground. Explore its nooks and crannies, have fun checking it all out. Hope you guys enjoy it!

One of the best levels i tried in the beta. Great atmosphere, awesome boat, full of functionalities and very simple to control. I had a great time playing this, and i was sad when it ended. The boat is very ingenious, stylish and funny. The fishing and other minigames were great. An amazing level from an amazing creator. Nothing else to say.
P.S: Third time i write this post, every time there was Databse Error XD

Thanky! I did happily, gaily, gleefully (and then angrilly, then achingly, grievously, followed at last by cathartically) play through your levels again. It was all as magical as I remember.

Interestingly, despite the inclusion of "from Water Beta" in the title, i think this level has been somewhat passed over so far on cool levels, possibly because people don't expect an electric banana peeler factory with a picture of happy french fries to be a water level.
meanwhile, my City on the Sea level is getting most of the plays out of my beta stuff so far. Perhaps "sea" and "water" both being the title was too tempting for all those thirsty masses.
"all those thirsty masses" meaning of course, the 100 plays and only 10 or so actual completions. Yep. Thirsty masses.

This is such a great level. When we were at the expo we showed it to johnee and Danny and they were wetting themselves over it. Johnee was being johnee and trying to figure out how you done every last detail 2009-12-24 01:43:00

I played all the 3 levels you published and they are all fanstastic. You are one of the few creators whose levels greatly impact me, you inspire me to make something crazy and impossible, thank you! Keep up the great work.

Seriously, how do you do it? You put details on your details! Lol.

Hah, you pretty much defined exactly how I do it! Details on top of details. In the case of this level, I never planned to do anything more than a boat - it was for a boat competition in the beta, after all. So that left me to be free to detail as much as I wanted, without really having to worry about the thermometer. A ton of the stuff I did was with custom stickers, possibly my favorite new technique.

Basically what I do is build, using whatever materials and stickers I want, with zero limitations, an object or detail - a vending machine, a coke can, a steam tank, a valve... and then I just take a screenshot of that and use it to sticker simple shapes in the level. If you use the sticker tool on this level you'll find all sorts of instances of custom stickers I made in this way.

I loved doing it, it's a shame there's so much lag in multiplay because of it.

Yaaaay! The backdoor is where the true VIP sneak in, right?

Awesome, epic and magical level as always Teeb. I love that in every nook and cranny, there is something to play with, with no details spared, and brilliant mechanics to boot. There are enough mini games in this that I find that I've been at port for a while before I can tear myself off of the boat. This level truly showcases your amazing ability to work in so much detail into a level, without any of it being superfluous or unnecessary. Each part of the boat shows your love of the game.

I give you a standing ovation and a slow clap on this one.

The Factory peels bananas; What I'm saying to you is that it peels lots and lots of bananas. This is a consuming process, it generates waste and takes up a lot of fuel and resources. Anyone in the banana peel trade knows this.

Trust me, if mankind ever finds something to do with banana parts, I'm going to be a rich, rich man with this boat of mine.

Tee I thuroughly enjoyed this level. Beutifully avantguard, otherworldly, funny and fun.

After I caught all the fish I thought "Oh, no... over so soon." Then I discovered the seagulls.

I am high score atm. This was satisfyingly fun. If your not already... you should be an illustrator.

Combined with the great seemless logic... you guys did an outstanding job.
