Bouncing Boom !!! v1.4scdenley
http://img230.imageshack.us/img230/2017/mov021460002.jpga quick and fun survival level. try to last as long as you can in an enclosed space, with motion sensing spring boxes (for you and the objects you must try to avoid).
all
level name : Bouncing Boom !!! v1.4



number of players : 1-4


video : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e64KlZwyBuk


neat things you'll see:

multi spring boxes with multiple activation sources.
4 different bomb types. help with randomness of the explosions.
a starting grab object to help or hinder you
nice level set to water as you bounce about you will get neat water effects.
in arena reward system and after game reward ( point based on longevity in game)
electric cover bomb ( near end ) that adds to the hardness of the game. as you must avoid not only exploding but also electrocution.
6 levels of hardness they progress quickly.


fixed notes: current version 1.4

some of the bouncing pads.( sensitivity.)

multiplayer issues entering the level ( mainly the second sack person falling off, and having a hard time getting back on to a pads.)
added a small angle on two pads to help object bounce back into arena. ( instead of staying on one pad.)
changed the sponge at the begining to the likeness of a sack person ( made it bounce bit more and i thought it was funny lol.)
added in aerna point bubble system
fixed electric bombs not exploding.



side notes:

this is my first full level creation, i've only before made objects and such. i created it and tweaked it 3 times to improve it based on feedback , and issues i found while playing it.

To start out with, I usually don't like bomb survival levels, but this one was pretty good. It got difficult quickly and when all the bombs are bouncing everywhere and you here the ?boing boing boing? it think a smile crept onto my face.
Things you may want to improve.
-Add music
- The intro is very bland, need more life in you intro. Maybe have bombs stacked in the background, I don't know, just do something so it's not just an intro, a gate, and a walkway that leads to the bombs.
-consider having some kind of character point out the ?bomb zone?, I walked past the door and all the sudden I was in the ?bomb zone? without knowing it. If I was with other players, they could?ve been left behind without me realizing it.
- Inside the bomb zone, add some kind of backdrop. Something with pictures of bombs, or fire, or funny pictures or something, just not that bland preset backdrop

Overall this was a fun level and surprisingly fresh for a bomb survival design. I gave you 4 stars both times I played, if you add some more ?life? (background, music, introduction ect.) it could be a five star in my book because the survival part works very well and doesn?t last forever. Good job on your first full level.

For the F4F, check out my ?True Life? Level. Click on my creations under my name, it is the only one there. Keep in mind that my level is almost overheating so I'm mostly using feedback on future levels in the series. Thanks

I gave this a go, it was good fun, I love these levels where you bounce all over the place, you have cleary designed that well. I personally didn't have any problems with people falling off in two player.

I would say I'm not so sure about electrical bombs suddenly falling, as people can die randomly regardless of their level of skill, which is a shame. That means there is a big luck factor in there, which put me off playing it dozens of times as I usually do with survival levels.

Oh and I suggest a few more points being thrown around closer to the start as this adds excitement!

Even so, a great effort, I hope to see more levels from you.

thank you for your guys feedback. i took your feedback and a reviewers feeback and altered my level a bit more. added a music player players option, updated a reward system ( still tweaking the arena one ). a sorta mini game at the end , and some visual tweaks. i might mess with in arena bubble points, and add some things in the arena but i'm very satisfied with the results, now to get some hearts lol . ( i do want to earn them tho )2010-01-11 02:04:00
