Elemental Enigma (beta!)

Archive: 72 posts


Hey guys! So I've been living under a rock, watching & playing these great levels, so I told myself to make some levels already! So, here's my first level of my series, Elemental Enigma: The Intro.

Thing is, I need beta testers for feedback & to find any bugs whatsoever, that are lurking around. If anyone is interested, please reply to this thread & I shall send you a PM with the color code needed for the Stormy Key Room.

Okay, I've played this level and here's what I thought.

I liked the look for this level and thought the story was pretty cool. The explosions were great although I was pretty confused on the hint, crickle crackle. I'm guessing it had to do with the object on fire, I tried stickering it but nothing happened and tried grabbing things and all. Anyway, I liked how the texts were quick but some were kinda too quick and all might be too quick for some people. I also liked how you got to get out of the factory but you should probably have a message saying to go back where you had the black arrow to pull the piece again. The part where you broke through the glass was pretty fun and I really liked the visuals outside. Overall, I gave it :star::star::star::star: Great job I had no glitches in this level. By the way, awesome lockbox

Ohhhh I get a positive feedback! Yay I will get to fixing those quick messages & the warning sign to go back. And I guess I'll make that hint more clear next time
Thank you soo much ! Oh, you DO know that there are 2 endings, right? Haha
That lock box was (unbelievably ) done over a weekend lol

I would like to test for you, as that is what I am best at, but it will have to wait until Tuesday, because my brother is getting married this weekend, so now is not a good time to be adding another beta to my roster, heh.2010-09-11 06:10:00

I used my mind powers!!! Was that the other ending? or is there on in the other, cooler area that i missed? Cause I got an object there, but that's it.

OH! Just finished your beta! I must say, it's looking pretty good! I especially loved the Fire part of the level, towards the end. That look just had me dazzled. So much so in fact that I had to say out loud how cool it looked. I'm also really looking forward to the ice level too! Are they gonna have ice be a lethal element in LBP2?

Anyways, I didn't find any bugs that you can fix. However, some of your white stickers were flickering in and out, but that's probably just a game engine problem. While the ending looked fantastic, I must say I was a but bored with the look of the lab. You have some really nice shapes and contraptions (I love the iThought pad!), but the background of the whole level seems like its missing something! I'd suggest taking a look at Compermc's Interstellar Infiltration for some inspiration with that clean, sterile, and futuristic look. It's hard to achieve that style without becoming somewhat bland. But like I said, I loved it! I can't wait to see your whole series once it's done!


(Nice lockbox by the way! That also had my picking my jaw up off the floor. Especially those wires! Genius!)

You got both endings! Thats just fine. I hope you found all the secrets ;p

I do believe that MM is going to make plasma a "legal" lethal in lbp2, but idk about ice. If anything, I'll just outfit my ices with micro spikes

Well, I will get to replaying that level & editing the lab tomorrow (or later today, whatever floats your boat). If all the contraptions work fine, I just have to do some aesthetic edits & it's off to the real world for my level haha!

(That dear lockbox of mine took a weekend to make haha!)

and for some EE news, the fire level is going great & I have decided that all elemental levels will be a platformer & a boss level. This means one intro, 6 levels, and 5 bosses.
SIX LEVELS?! What ?! That'll come soon folks
Also, if anyone has any story ideas, do share! I'd like to take the communities
advice (:

Just make it a paintinator boss! Then all you have to do is slap a switch on a cutout. Sure it won't be the funnest boss, but whatever! SAVE THAT THERMO!!!! ;D

How do you get the other ending? I got the fire ending because the other path was blocked after the iThought part. How do you get past the huge block of 'ice?'2010-09-22 16:40:00

Hmmm. You've got a point there, sir. But how would people use it? ahaha!

There should be a sequence at the end where the board breaks through. I'm pretty sure everything is working. As for the ice, you kinda need to jump down from the 3rd layer to pass it. Kind of guide as to where the end is lol.


I woud love to beta test for you!if you pm me the code i can get to work right away!

Sorry! But this level is nearing completion and will most likely be released this weekend. BUT you will be informed of the next beta test for my fire level. The first to be informed!

Sounds good, by the way 1. can I be the second to be informed? :arg: and 2. When do you think you'll be able to release the beta for the burnt ending? 2010-09-23 17:15:00

And I would like to be the third to be informed.
Also, right after the iThought, you climb the now open path and immediately to the left there is a big immovable block of 'ice'. where do I go now? I tried jumping down, jumping down while grabbing, everything I could think of. Where to? I just can't get past.

Ahaha! Of course! & as for the beta, it should be release next week. There's a lot of gameplay, as you have seen, and I think it's a good amount of it for people to test

Just played it, and went into create mode with you. If only you could use less thermo. It seems a little bit short, but I know why, so for its' size, it's great.
And I got my fourth rep bar about 15 minutes ago, WOOT!

Quick question guys. Should I leave the levels locked to give that "story mode" feel to the levels or should I just unlock them? :/2010-11-01 06:34:00

In my opinion, have each level unlock the next. Put the key on the scoreboard like LBPC TG did.2010-11-02 08:00:00

Last time I saw, royal was just making new gameplay elements, not fully put together and whatnot so I don't think it'll be ready for testing till LBP2 since he might wanna add the tools to it for testing since it'll be in LBP22011-01-05 16:11:00

Well, I ordered the CE with release date delivery so I will be sure to be in on the testing for the next one.



So when is the next beta?!

After LBP2 comes out. So, like, in a week plus whatever time it takes to get to the first beta of a gameplay element, if he goes the same route as the last one.

Hey guys! Sorry I haven't been in touch lately. I will be making a new beta thread for the EE series in the LBP2 section soon. After I finish the awesome story levels, I will get started on making to FROST series.



After LBP2 comes out. So, like, in a week plus whatever time it takes to get to the first beta of a gameplay element, if he goes the same route as the last one.

Yes, within a week of putting things together, a fresh beta will be in the lockbox. I will inform all of you individually about the code. Until then, let's enjoy the story and hope the negativitron doesn't suck everything up D:

So far, the only thing that's sucking is the loading time glitch.
Also, I beat the game already, just going back to 100% it.
IT'S AWESOME!
