The Lost Temple of the TRIsackiansSplurk
A little platform a little puzzle alot of fun! lol This is my first level. I spent over two months on it, with out this site and the tutorials on youtube by The Adipose and Luos_Desruc, I would never have finished. Thank you much to both. I hope you all enjoy.

Note: I don't know how to get a screenshot off my PS3 to here or i would. Also I got four 1 star ratings within 5 minutes of posting my level, its as if they didn't even they didn't even play it, whats with that?

Hullo!

I'm glad my tutorials worked out for ya. and as you were nice enough to name check me, I'll check out your level.

I can see the tutorial influence in the colour scheme - but thats not a criticism - it works well. I like the way you've used the triangle shape to bring a lot of interest to your scenery. You've got a lot of nice little puzzles, and the doubling back and opening extra routes makes the level feel bigger. I would be tempted to turn the lights off completely and light the whole thing using LEDs, spotlights and flames. The temple is well built, but i dont think the gloomy lights you've chosen do it justice.

The rock material you've used works ok, but in some places (the elevator, a few of the floors) its too square and too unbroken. perhaps put a line of one material on the front layer almost like a border. Or try putting a line of another material about 2 small squares below the top. then you get like a 3-stripe effect.

One part you definately need to sort out is the opening in the lift. you can't see it because the camera automatically goes to the right angle. Put a camera there or make the elevator stop there or something. I suspect you got the bad rankings because people didnt find that.

Sadly I didnt get to the end either - on the rotating triangles with spikes (very tricky!) I lost all my lives except one, then the flipper threw me up... but not quite high enough, and I hit another spike. I would suggest you always use infinite lifegates. your level isn't short and its very frustrating for a player to get that far and fail.

I'm giving you a lot of ideas here but let me really just enforce that this is a GOOD level and it is a VERY GOOD first level. You've learned a ton of techniques that you've used well in this level. ... a few more and you're well on your way to being a good creator too - well done.

check out my new discworld level if you fancy it.
