All The Way UpMarcellus84
http://lipiec.us/lbp/LBPscreen.jpgIt should taken about 20 minutes to complete the level. With somewhat challenging moments, one short race (3 players). Lots of jumping involved, hidden treasure spots... should be fun!

Please check out this level. It took me a while to finish it, but if you will like it I will try to expand it and polish existing sections. Let me know which sections are good/bad. Thanks!!

Here is the short video promoting the level!

Hey Marcellus.

Just finished your level (as the only on so far it seems) and its pretty good... and pretty hard. Everythings finely tuned to require the exact timing. Theres actually something dangerous almost everywhere (surprised those small red cars didnt fall off a ledge or something).

Luckily do I love a challenge, but its gonna tick a lot of people off - especially since it's trial and error the whole way. (which you shouldn't really care too much about, just sayin).

The points feel a bit randomly placed at times, and they kinda ended up feeling "empty" for me, since I died a lot of places to pure unluck. Great with secret rooms, and I can see you're using points as a guide for the players aswell - it works.

Like the "backtracking" you did, with using the obstacles going up and down (hence further creating something to get past when you climbed the first one). Especially liked the point with the rolling fire thingies, where you had to jump between 3 pillars, and later jump on those 3 pillars to get past a fire pit.

The small race part felt a bit random, but heck - it's all fun. It's a good, but challenging platformer in general, that's pretty well thought out. I didn't like the car with the bombs dropping down (But I hate bomb survivals, so my opinion there aren't rly valid).

You should consider placing a checkpoint down at the place where the logs (round wood) drops down. Had to fly down there 5 times, and it started to get on my nerves.

Anyways, pretty good level. I love basic platforming, and I like a challenge. I got both here. Theres a good variety of gameplay.

:star::star::star::star: Great level all in all

Oh, and consider hiding those emitters and radios.

Hi thanks for playing my level. I played yours and here are some impressions I had.

Things I liked especially:
I liked the part where you pulled the switch and the stones cover up the fire to make it passable I thought that was inventive. I also really liked the part where you had to race in the vehicle before you got blown up on at the end.

Things I didn't like so much: Some of the small jumps at the very beginning are kind of frustrating, as well as jumping around the corner to get back up at the part after the fire logs rolling down at the ramp. LBP's jump physics are pretty loose and falling down and having to do something over again can get annoying .
Also I'd hide some of the emitters and switches that you don't need to see.

Overall: It was pretty hard at some places and I think that would put some people off but I thought it had a good variety of game play and it kept things interesting.

Good level, I gave it 4 stars!

Just keep working at it. Remember to balance out the gameplay. Don't make the player repeat too many tasks or they will lose patience with the level. Falling and having to climb back up over and over again kills the fun. Also, you should just place infinite checkpoints everywhere as I died a couple times with a normal check point because of confusion on where to go. If I had ran out of lives, there was no way I was going to go through the entire level again.

Length is definitely an issue. Too much and again the player loses interest. I almost found myself reaching that point.

Check out my level in my signature if you want.
