This is my first real level, i put a lot effort in to it and i still see flaws, but im still editing it here and there. Its about a forest that is said to have a castle hidden within its trees and a long trail awaits travelers to reveal its secrets. Hopefully you can see where i was going with the ending, it wasnt my favorite way to end it but there will be a sequel and if you didnt catch what it will be about, go back and see.. its very obvious.. or to me it is.. lol.


Thank you Morgana for ze loverly pictures

Hey, I played this one when you first published it thanks to our friend Tom230889. Gotta say loved the design, characters and scenery were just beautiful. I didn't find anything wrong, the gameplay was really great too and a lot of fun being swung around the place! :star: :star: :star: :star: :star: + <3 2010-07-01 01:35:00

I found some of the camera transitions kinda tricky, and didn't understand the ending (do tell), but cool level.
I would love to see an acing speed run of this level, the gameplay speed reminds me of sonic at places.

EDIT: Is that "matchbox" a MM object?

It would be impressive no doubts.

I did notice that at a few bits in the level having 3 players got us killed but multiplayer testing is hard, so many permutations of what stunt they could try and play.

Making levels would be so much easier if people never played 'em, haha

Thanks for finally posting this!

Awesome level. The corner editing is amazing and so are the characters. The only flaws were graphical and even then they were minor(mismatched or choppy corners). Can't wait for part 2.

Also, have you got a thread for your other levels(the paintinator one and the Lemony Snicket one)? They're great too

This level feels like a 'weird type of coffee factory' but anyway great visuals (loved how you used plain wood) and lovely (a little repetitive) gameplay.

I was suprised when I saw plain wood tbh, no one uses it ever

It's a very apt use, to be sure.

Fantastic! I loved every minute! The visuals were amazing! I especially liked the design of the characters. The gameplay was fast and fun, but I did find a few of those sponge lifts too be tricky. Nothing that would ruin my enjoyment of the level though. It was just a blast to play through!

One thing that I might suggest, is hooking up sensor switches to your checkpoints, to prevent players from going past the checkpoint without it activating. there was one section in particular where I fell down a shaft, slide under the checkpoint and forgot to go back and jump to activate. Not a big deal, but a sensor might help.

Overall, a fun, beautiful, and all around fantastic level! Great job!
