Harry Potter Dueling Club (Two Player Level)

Archive: 7 posts


Ok I just finished this level, its a short two player VS. level where you reenact the dueling club scene from Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.

The gameplay is pretty simple, you grab right to attack (Stupify if you are Draco, and Expelliarmus if you are Harry), and grab left block (Protego).
You try to be the last one standing by attacking and block you opponents attacks.

I personally think its my best level yet, so enjoy.

I just played your level.

Pros:
- Good decorations.
- The level flowed very well. Nice intro etc.
- Definitely an original idea.
- Simple and easy to pick up.

Cons:
- It may be a little to easy to block. My roommate and I were in a standoff for a decent amount of time just blocking each other's attacks.

Suggestions:
- Is there any way you might be able to implement a different attack? or maybe a different speed attack? I think the slightest variation would make a huge improvement.

Thanks for the feedback! I tried the multiple attacks thing while building it and it made it so you only had to grab the best attack to have a chance at winning.

I'll get to you level soon.

heya. thanks for your feedback on Archaic Ascension, Glad you enjoyed it I just tried this one out with a friend, and we had a fun time playing it lol. Your right, the blocking system can take a bit of getting used to, but If you're playing with two people that know how to control it then you can really put yourself in some extended battles lol. Its a really simple concept but the timing requited and the lifebars make it quite intese lol, especially if its a close match. It looked nice too, and offered up a couple of play throughs. I think a couple more attacks would have been really neat, maybe with a corresponding shield to block each one. besides that, really fun co op minigame, great work!2010-09-08 01:39:00

Alright, Im reserving this post for your F4F feedback from my level: Crazy Canyons.

EDIT: Alright I played your level! This is what i think:

-Great work on the attacks! I got PWN'ed But blocking worked perfectly.
-I hate dieing from horrible gas cutscenes, Its easier to do it your way but If theres any other way to do your cutscenes, Try to use those methods.
-Characters were designed well. I was Harry, and It made it all the more better.
-Gameplay was VERY unique, loved every second of fighting!

Overall 4 stars and a heart from me! great work!

I was with greyspence when he did the F4F.

-The attacks looked quite good, and I PWNed Grey.
- Overall nice gameplay mechanics.

-it kinda lacked a bit of variety.
I think adding two more attacks/spells/etc. To up and down grabbing would make it even cooler.

Thanks for the feedback! I'm starting on an RPG level that uses this mechanic (a one player version) and I might try the more attack thing in that.

And fishrock, any levels of yours you want me to play for the F4F?
