GruntosUK and NinjaMicWiz Present: Twin Towers (15000xp up for grabs)

Archive: 28 posts


GruntosUK and NinjaMicWiz Present: Twin TowersGruntosUK / NinjaMicWiz
http://www.lbpcentral.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=540&pictureid=9896A mind numbing, thumb burning coop survival challenge created in the OC beta by GruntosUK, NinjaMicWiz, Killian, jackofcourse, xkappax, FullGorr and snowspot. Do you have what it takes to reach the top? And once there, will you share the spoils or take glory for yourself?
all

The level is posted under my PSN: GruntosUK

So, this was the highest rated level in the Beta until the arrival of water, its a coop challenge that has one player pulling colour coded switches to allow your partner to climb further up the tower. You need to work together to complete it, and even then, its still very hard.

A lot of blood, sweat, tears, lack of sleep and nicotine went into this level over the 3 days it took to create.

For the chance to win 8000,5000, or 2000xp, please see this thread (https://lbpcentral.lbp-hub.com/index.php?t=p=359796#post359796) for more details.

Can't have been that stressful surely. It says you made it in only 3 days!! Is that right?
That's no time at all. My levels usually take at least 3 weeks, sometimes months!

I believe they didn't sleep or do anything else (except smoke) during that time

Plus the mechanics look like a right pain in the **** to ensure nothing can break - it's a very good level, grant took me through it when I first got to the beta.



Edit - why has the word neck been censored? I definitely used the word neck and not anything rude

It was also the first 3 days the beta was out, cocreate was all new to all of us, completely bug ridden... and yeah, I think we only slept about 4 hours apiece the entire time, the rest was spent on the PS3.2009-12-28 15:56:00

Yeah rtm's right, we basically did nothing else for 3 whole days, I had 3 hours sleep in that time, then it took another couple of days of playing it and tweaking it before we could even complete it and see if it all worked and was actually possible 2009-12-28 15:58:00

I played this one during the beta and it was amazing.
Great great work!
Having seen Grant working in the beta (he's restless like a working bee, impressive for a slow pok like me), I can only imagine him working for 3days.
It's good that finally everyone can now enjoy the level.
Thanks guys for the work!

I remember me, Grant, Ninja, and Killian playing this for about 4 hours straight (that's not exaggerating) when it was pretty much finished. Just kept restarting and restarting...we didn't even manage to complete it ourselves in that time

So addictive and so much fun. One of the best times I've had playing this game for sure.

Absolutely amazing.

It would get murdered by the general community though, no doubt!

Played this with Matt_82 earlier.... we stunk like yesterday's haggis....

But fun! Very cool idea, great execution. I remember thinking in the beta "how did they THINK of this???"

Yesterday I played it n 2x with Shadowheaven and 3x with Sh and mistervista.
We all had mics and had a loooooooooooot of fun.
We didn't complete the level but obtained a good score.

It's addicting and it's a real play machine.
I can't imagine how many plays this beast will have in a couple of weeks.

to be fair, we only really had two or three attempts. 4 tops.

tis very good, though we got a bit lost after the bit that looks a bit like pinball flippers.

grant I will be hi-jacking you to get me to the end sometime soon.

Good lord this is so addicting. I played this with EviLPaNda earlier today and like the previous posts just kept restarting and restarting. Great great level, GrantosUK and NinjaMicMZ. EP and I took 5th on the scoreboard today but will definitely be back for more.

EDIT: Matt, I had trouble here at first too. Try jumping on red flipper first, then white flipper, then last red flipper. You should be in mid-jump as the flippers are being activated by your partner of course.

This level is the DragonForce of levels; it's really, really, really, REALLY hard, but it's possible, and that's what keeps people coming back.

Also, the ending is pretty neat.

Because when you die you spawn on the scoreboard, effectively finishing the level even though you haven't actually beat it. Look at the scores, those with large scores have beaten it properly, around 10 people in total if i remember right.2010-01-17 20:56:00

When you die it sends you to the scoreboard. I thought the same thing the first time I went to play it and saw that 300 out of the 500 or whatever had finished.

Edit: too slow!

Yeah... beating the level = scoreboard saying "you win" and cheers of applaud for all, and a surprise or two before the end area... dying short of the end = kill switch on both players, teleport to scoreboard saying "try again", ridicule and laughs, and a malfunctioning barrage of rocket cheetahs. Those who never reach the top will forever be marked by the stain of an unspayed rocket cheetah in heat.2010-01-20 16:41:00

But the completed stats are much lower than the actual plays, people have quit out before even dying. Awesomeness is obviously to much for some people to talke

(Either that of they tried a level clearly marked as 2p coop 1p )
