A fork in the road

Archive: 11 posts


Well, a while back on the beta, someone said that I should make a level that goes off into different directions at the beginning instead of at the end. So, to fill time, I've been thinking of a dinner table themed level (or picnic level, or wedding table themed level) where you can either complete the level by going under the table, staying on the table, or going up into someones mouth. I'm actually very excited for making this when I get the full game.

For the table-top route, you must solve a bunch of puzzles, and obviously do some platforming, to reach the end. One of my ideas is that you have to put certain fruit in certain holes in the floor. For example, there's a hole in the floor with an orange color. You have to put the orange in the orange colored hole. After doing a couple of these, all of the blocks of dissolve blocking the magnetic key switch from the magnetic key will be gone and the magnetic key switch will blow a hole in the plate, or glass, or whatever I choose to block your path.

For the under-the-table route, it's more about avoiding danger. There will be poisonous mice, Some electric wires and stuff, some falling stuff...um....suggestions are welcome! There'll be more platforming than the table top route.

For the people route, you'll have to go through their heads, stomachs, and whatever, to get to the end. You'll have to either jump from their ears to another's ears, or run across their arms, which will act like a drawbridge which will only allow you to cross when the arms are close to eachother (because the arms will move) This will be the most platform heavy, because inside the bodies, if you fall you'll fall into some toxic stuff.

...So, what do you think?

I think if done right, it could be an amazing level, going to have to be artsy on this one though, and I'm serious, don't screw this up with crappy ears,mouses,etc,.

Just some constructive criticism

Also an idea: A secret pathway, with special rewards. For example, an "above the ceiling" or "along the wall/light fixtures" path. (Like in the LittleBigHouse level, that platforming inside the wall, for one side. Or jumping from picture frame to picture frame on the other. Etc.) But the only way you can access it is if you grab onto a partially-camouflaged, occasionally-dropping ball of foam, which brings you up to that level. It certainly adds to the complexity, yeah. But it just makes your level that much more awesome.2008-10-21 05:26:00

A very interesting idea. Has a lot of potential. I'm looking forward to seeing this one go live.2008-10-21 07:39:00

Sounds pretty good! Maybe under the table you could put spilt/rotting foods, some of the peoples feet, etc.... maybe even holes in the floor 2008-10-21 12:38:00

Yeah, stomping feet is one idea I had for a hazard under the table.

I like the idea of a dinner-table idea, like those episodes of Tom and Jerry where they used to run around on a table laden with food.
