inspired by th classic Castlevania games, a lvl that takes you through all corners of Dracula's castle and a fight with Drac himself at the end. theres also an introduction lvl linked to this, with a flashy intro and a lil story, but i short. the main "rondo of burlap" level is where its at. make ur way through dungouns, a library, a clock tower and confront and bring down Dracula. lots of gifts to colect and secrets to unravel. im getting some good responses but not alot of playes. its hard to get it to stay on cool lvls... the level is compleatly full. witch is a shame could i'd love to ad more... hey i got videos now: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nYgCHlU9zBk http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FABXRkgABKU here's some screenshots: http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y89/ptoobe/APhoto_5.jpg http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y89/ptoobe/APhoto_9.jpg http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y89/ptoobe/APhoto_11.jpg http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y89/ptoobe/APhoto_17.jpg http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y89/ptoobe/APhoto_19.jpg i worked on this for quite a wile, replaced alot of stuff i planed origonally. so i also got a bunch of leftovers i didnt even use in my main lvl, like a pipe organ and a grim reaper charicture intendet for a boss fight, and much more. maybe il try and ad them to the intro lvl, or i could make a 3rd Sackula lvl. i dont wanna be making sackula levels for to long though...[/div]

Awesome - that's all I can say - that was so long and cool..... Excellent physics puzzles and gameplay.... yea, loved it! Couple of places where you can see some swithces (clock and some prox switches you could make invisible) Other than that nothing to complain about at all. It's hard but really well done. 5 stars & hearted! Keep it up!

thx, jah i chose to keep some switches visible so you know to expect something a bit like the story lvls where they even show the logic, but that i've hidden behind the walls.

Wow, this level is excellent. It deserves a lot more plays than it currently has. The gameplay is really good, challenging, varied and some original ideas I’d not seen done before. The level was long and really keeps you on your toes. I’m not going to admit how many times I tried to get up your trick staircases, lol, but I got there in the end. Good visuals too. I loved your book platforms and the characters were great, particularly the Sackula bosses. If you’ve got the time you really should post a few more pictures in the first post. I’m sure it would tempt more people into playing! 5 stars and hearted!

I played it and I loved it. Very satisfying. I had a few minor problems, most of which involved the level being too dark. I found myself saying most of the time "How do I proceed? Interact with the thing that I can't see? Yup. Called it." It was worth it to make it to the end though. I liked how similar it was to Castlevania, while still maintaining alot of originality.

I liked how similar it was to Castlevania, while still maintaining alot of originality. i didnt notise it being to dark, are you playing on a standerd definishion tv? or in what part did you find it to dart.. and jah, lots of little castlevania refrenses. and if you played super castlevania 4 on snes, theres the same hidden secret by the stairs leading up to dracula.

You probably don't remember but I do now that I see the images with the stairs. I bumped into you probably by a friend or something. We had so much trouble getting up those stairs in the second pic.

ow thanks. free publisity is alleways great, getting your level to be a hit is so dificult on lbp, and the cool levels page just dusn't work... and i made the trick stairs a little bit more user friendly, What I found worked for me is to republish it via overwriting as often as you can. Don't just move it or w/e to republish. Go to create moon and publish/overwrite the 'old' version. Give it like 10 minutes, if your not the cool pages, do it again...If you are past the 7(?) day 'cool page' period and it still hasn't taken off, you should just completely republish. btw, what is GAF?? http://www.neogaf.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=2
