| A Fantastical Adventure: The Kingdom! *SPOTLIGHTED*killzonequinn07 http://www.lbpcentral.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=12881Begin your wonderous adventure to my new series with a trip to the kingdom, where you may see some old faces, and some new ones too! Have fun and enjoy! I have begun making a series of throwback levels to the original story by Media Molecule, but I felt I should do it in my own way. This first adventure brings you to the kingdom where you learn of the quest you have been given by the royal family. Make your way through the castle and out on to the beach to get your boat for the journey. Thanks to: WillPalro. Also to testers: pierrick_du_95, chicoleunis, ruof, tanrockstan34, frodofragginS79, blahyourhamster, bakscratch, frederik94, plasmavore, and anyone i forgot (sorry). PUBLISHED This Project is part of an eight part series so If you like this, keep an eye out for the rest when they arrive.  Here are some screenies. I hope you all like smiley faces!! 8) 12888 12889 12890 12891 12892 | 2010-02-15 14:36:00 Author: KQuinn94Z  Posts: 1758 |

| Firstly when I clicked on it it said that it currently had 64 people playing it! It's all very player friendly and should do really well on the cool pages. Lots of nice simple ideas and good obstacles in there. It's just a well made level. Simple mechanics that work perfectly and are always easy to understand. It's always clear what you have to do and where you have to go next. The only thing that may let it down on the cool pages and with the kiddies is the length. A promising start to a series! Good work, keep it up. (After the 3 bouncy things that get you to a button that opens a door...just after that door there's a speaker showing on the bouncer that takes you up.) | 2010-02-15 18:23:00 Author: jackofcourse  Posts: 1494 |
| I think Jack's summed this level up - it's one that'll murder cool pages. It's not dislike Mm, in that the platforming is simple and kid-friendly, but is also very different... just the general feel of it. Still, a great level that's fun and easy to get into. Can't wait for part two Five stars and a heart | 2010-02-15 20:01:00 Author: Coxy224  Posts: 2645 |
| I played it and I really enjoyed it. The gameplay was simple and unique, and very fun. There are no glitches and whatnot. I also enjoyed the characters, they were pretty memorable. The overall style was colourful and fun, kind of reminiscent of Mnniskas levels. I can't wait for the next level! I gave it 5 stars and a heart. If you want to could you check out my level The Drowned Dungeon? | 2010-02-15 20:56:00 Author: bonner123  Posts: 1487 |
Amazing level. Loved the boat at the end especially  One thing though, in the underwater sections, cover the bubble emitters with the seeweed decoration and add the seewead/barnacle decorations to liven it up a bit. Maybe even some cardboard cutouts of fish if you have thermo?(make them bob up and down with invisible winches maybe?) | 2010-02-15 21:05:00 Author: Unknown User  |
| Thanks very much guys. I felt like making something a little bit more unique than my other stuff. I'ts always a good sign when the only thing found wrong is a speaker. Thanks guys. | 2010-02-15 21:07:00 Author: KQuinn94Z Posts: 1758 |
| Wow looks like this is getting a good press already! The pictures look really cool and im guessing this will be a lot like the MM levels. Can't wait to play it! | 2010-02-15 21:28:00 Author: ladylyn1  Posts: 836 |
Looks nice, i'll be looking foward to playing it  | 2010-02-15 21:33:00 Author: Sack Saprono  Posts: 17 |
I said I would play this and I did! I really enjoyed it! There was one thing I wanted to say as a critique, but now I can't remember.  I enjoyed the characters, and that bouncy platform who was promoted at the end really cracked me up. One thing though, it was supposed to be based off the gardens right? It didn't really look much like the gardens, not that that's a negative though. And no, that wasn't the thing I couldn't remember. | 2010-02-15 21:45:00 Author: thekevinexpress  Posts: 256 |
| This was a fun level. ^^ I like the characters (dunno why, but I think the whole cog sticker behind the eye thing is cool), the puzzles were entertaining, and the art style was simplistic in a positive way. ;D Very fun. Can't wait to see more from you. | 2010-02-15 21:46:00 Author: AeroForce22  Posts: 392 |
| Cog stickers FTW. I dunno i just love that sticker. | 2010-02-15 21:53:00 Author: KQuinn94Z Posts: 1758 |
| Absolutely brilliant. 5 stars. | 2010-02-15 22:44:00 Author: TheAdipose  Posts: 533 |
| I had the chance to play it a few hours ago and thought it was pretty fun level, as already mentioned, the structure was pretty simple. I actually found it to be too simple, I would have liked for the level to have more depth like Howdy Partners. I think you did a good job in continuing the visual style of MM, although I think more decorations could have been used and more details placed throughout. My main negative was the background settings, the fog was way too high and the background color was pretty bland. These things though, are simple to change, overall you did a good job with the level. 4 Stars. | 2010-02-16 04:28:00 Author: TheFirstAvenger  Posts: 787 |
| This level's deceptive. It's outward appearance is pretty basic, and I'm guessing you're probably aware that visuals aren't your strong point, but the gameplay is absoutely rock solid. That was really good fun to play. You stick to tried and tested gameplay mechanics without labouring the point and always move things along to offer the player a new kind of challenge at every turn. The difficulty is tweaked just right with a few fairly easy sections, and other sections where you die a few times, go back at it with a "gotta try that again" attitude, and then finally make it through without feeling any of that kind of frustration that can kill the mood of a level. Nothing broken either, the whole level feels smooth to play from start to finish and it's always clear where to go next. My favourite bits were the sections with spinning wheels, y'know, where you've got 'em moving up and down as they spin over a pit, and the other bit soon after where you can get your butt spiked. Not sure what it is about 'em, but I love big spinning wheels! Anyway, a 4 star rating from me and a "fun" tag. This level is only let down by it's basic looks. If you can work on your aesthetics and develop a distinctive visual style that defines you as a creator, I think you have the potential to be a five-star author. | 2010-02-16 13:51:00 Author: Ungreth  Posts: 2130 |
| I actually liked doing it more simple looking, because I usually tire myself trying to make it look good. I'll go back in and back it purtier then. | 2010-02-16 14:25:00 Author: KQuinn94Z Posts: 1758 |
| I agree with the others, your gameplay is on point, the level is long, but fun! Could have used a bit more decorating, but i'm guessing that you sacrificed visuals for better and longer gameplay. Great job | 2010-02-16 22:24:00 Author: shawneboi  Posts: 221 |
| Just to let you all knowprogress is being made on part two and I finished a few sections today. | 2010-02-17 14:13:00 Author: KQuinn94Z Posts: 1758 |
| i know now what is the perfect idea of puzzles you always said to me this was simply awesome. I gave it 5 stars not only for an amazing game-play but also because of the very original visuals and a story that keeps your interest on the game. Good job! keep up!!! | 2010-02-19 01:50:00 Author: ferrrch Posts: 429 |
| I've played this level quite a few times now Mostly because I too am starting a story project. I'm not going to be stealing any of your ideas or anything hahaa. Was just looking for inspiration Ok, now for a quick review!! I Liked the look of the level. It was simple. Much like how Mm starts off the game, not too into the details at first but later, they go crazy with them!!! Wonder if thats what you intend to do. . . . :]. The beginning platforming was initially very simple. For some reason, after you meet the king and are going down that hill with the gaps with spikes in them, I kept dying hahah. Nothing wrong with that part I just found it funny that I was dying so many times there. The characters were very good. Well, at least the ones you made aha. The king and Queen are from the storyline just stickered differently but thats not a problem. The under water bit was also pretty good, but it did look a little bland. Spruce it up a little bit! maybe some stickers and some decorations perhaps? Overall an excellent level that had a good length and is a fun time for all! Keep it up! Can't wait for the rest! If you could, please F4F My level, Canyon of the Three-Headed Beast. I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks! | 2010-02-19 06:07:00 Author: SupaSack34  Posts: 180 |
| I played this today and it's true, it's like an MM level but with your style of visuals. The platforming is fun and easy and I'll be keeping an eye out for the sequel. | 2010-02-19 10:07:00 Author: Arctos13  Posts: 258 |
| This was a really good level. Very MM, I liked it alot. Some really fun platforming without getting too difficult, and it was smartly layed out. The visuals werent complicated but it suited the level, so was the character design. Some were detailed but some of them seemed lazily made. (Don't hate me). I gave it 5 stars and a heart + a line that will go onnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn and onnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn nnnnnnnnnnnnnnn........ and onnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn..... and... oh forget it. | 2010-02-19 14:07:00 Author: AgentBanana  Posts: 511 |
| I had the pleasure to play your level yesterday and I loved it. I couldn't find any negative points. Maybe too "simple" visuals?. But probably this is part of its charm... so don't listen I saw a comment saying "Best use of water I've seen", and this is exactly what I feel too. I loved the puzzles, awesome use of the 3 layers, very very long (this is good ) and my daughter loved it too... so you got 2 hearts, and 10 stars Keep it up! | 2010-02-21 09:22:00 Author: poms  Posts: 383 |
| Let me describe this level in one word... Excellent, Glorious, Fantastic, Impressive, Remarkable. It is way to hard to describe it in one word and I could go on till I deplete the words of the English language. You captured the essence of Mm's story levels and put your own personal twist on it too! If I was new to LBP and I stumbled across this level I would have though Mm released another section to their story levels! The visuals were very clean and simplistic but I think that's what makes the level what it is. The materials were the perfect choice and you manged to make the sponge look good! The Prince looked like he came out of a Garden's level, it is so well made. Spikes... And by spikes I mean gameplay of course. Excellent use of the spikes but you might have overdone it a bit. The spiked room was fabulous and so were the big wheels at the end but you used so many. I can understand that nothing else wold look good so they're not really out of place. But always, you can think of some original gameplay ideas and that's what makes the level fantastic for me. Some of the best gameplay I have ever seen (of course only Grant's From Siberia with Love tops my list) this came in a good second. The spike wheels at the end shocked me at first because last time I saw it I was helping you with the part before and there was nothing after it. I just figured a tunnel to the surface with a beach and a scoreboard but you really went all out. Well I can't wait to pop in when you're making the next level(s) again and see what's coming! | 2010-02-21 13:44:00 Author: tanrockstan34  Posts: 1076 |
| Was a nice jolly level, I love the whole handcraft style and fun game play stuff. I quite liked the simplicity of at all as it's based around a solid theme. I dunno what else to say, it's too good for words, nothing bad soo.... 5 stars, tagged brill. | 2010-02-23 14:27:00 Author: LordMagicPants  Posts: 187 |
| I tried this one and it was very good. A nice interesting twist on the gardens theme. The only thing i would recommend offhand is to replace the sponges with sand where they are meant to represent such. Can't remember the rating(4 or 5 stars) but i think i hearted it. When you have time, can you review my level (https://lbpcentral.lbp-hub.com/index.php?t=23078-Broken-Dreams-Part-2-Advanced-Training#post399624)? | 2010-02-24 06:27:00 Author: RCIX Posts: 250 |
| Hey I tried this online with 3 others. The two of them struggled with it, because they found it very hard. I thought it wasn't too hard, but it's a nice platformer. I'm looking much forward to your next levels. Would you like to play my level: Fruits - A race between continents. PSN: ghik16 | 2010-02-25 14:34:00 Author: ghik16  Posts: 311 |
| Hard? This is the most pre-school (Not in terms of quality) level I've ever made. | 2010-02-25 21:08:00 Author: KQuinn94Z Posts: 1758 |
| When will you publish the second part? | 2010-02-26 04:55:00 Author: Arctos13 Posts: 258 |
| Hard? This is the most pre-school (Not in terms of quality) level I've ever made. Maybe, they were kids not knowing what they were doing. But would you like to play my level?
