Ready for another review! Hi Community, I'm angry at the pace of how I create levels, so I think I need to relax and try something new. Not the most sofisticated person their is, so don't expect that much of a high-class review. I will however try to go indepth on all parts of the review, using my limited vocabulary. Now, here's how I'll review: What you give me: Level Title: Obvious. Level Description: Obvious. Intended Difficulty: What the author thinks the level's difficulty is, easy, medium, or hard. Notes: Anything the author wants to say about the level, how long it took to make the level, how he/she went about it, ect. Optional, I'd just like to hear about your experience. Genre: Should I bring a friend along for the trip 'cause the level's a 2-Player Co-op? Or should I prepare my thumb to thrash the R1 button because I'm going to be faced to face with a fast-paced shooter? What I give you: I review your level in these categories, but you get to choose which ones I should review you on. Now if you only choose 3 of them, I may make the descriptions of the categories longer, and vise versa. In each category I'll explain the Pros and Cons, any knit-picks (Get it? Knit? No? Aw.) I have, suggestions, and finally a summary of the category. -Story -Platforming -Difficulty -Length -Sound -Scenery -Fun Factor -Wow Factor -Any thing else you feel I should add Now you make be thinking "But what if my level doesn't have a story, or scenery, or ect?" That's where you pick your type of review! If you don't have a story in your level, just don't choose that category! I may also mention any note-worthy moments afterwords. Finally, I'll write a short summary on the entire experience. (I may add a media section with pictures I took of the level, or even a video of the level!) (My Rating in Stars)(Level Hearted or not)(Author Hearted or not) So that's it. Suggestions on my style? Please post! Like I said, this is new for me. Here's what I wanna see in your posts (If you want a review): -----------Cut here---------- Title of your Level: Description of your level: (Optional, but it would be nice considering my PS3 is upstairs and my computer is downstairs, and running back and forth to remember the description of the level kinda makes my legs hurt XD) Intended Difficulty: (Personally I have trouble playing hard levels, but if your level is hard, I'll still try my best to complete it) Genre: Notes: Any notes you want to tell me about your level. Please Review On: The sections you'd like me to review your level on (I.E. Story) -----------Cut here---------- I have the right to refuse any level, not saying I will, but if something I just can't review, I won't review it. One review at a time by the way.

Sounds awesome, I'd love a review Title of your Level: Beyond The Gray Sunset: Prelude Description of your level: My level is the start of a new series that I hope to launch What Lies Beyond The Sunset? Adventure? Greed? Society? Delve into this series to embark on a journey that will satisfy even the most adventurous thrill seeker. Thank You in advance for playing this level, which was made with help from TheRougeAssassin. Check out our levels and leave us some feedback, heart us so that we can continue on future projects and don't forget to tell us what you'd like to see in future levels! Intended Difficulty: Easy (read note) Genre: 1 Player Recommended Notes: This level is just a prelude to the series and was mainly a focus on visuals and explaining an intro of what TheRougeAssassin and I hope will become a major working series. It was just a teaser of what we are capable of and not of how much we wanted to test the audience of LBP. The level may seem easy but please keep in mind that it's meant as an introduction into a new world full of wonders and the unknown (as cliche as it sounds lol). All in all,TheRougeAssassin and I, simply hope you enjoy the level! Please review on: -Story -Scenery -Wow Factor. The format looks great and I can't wait to see what you think of the level!

Arrg, how could I forget to add the "Please Review On:" section of "What I'd like to see in your posts"? Great, just by your writing I seem to have an idea on what the level's quality is. I'll get right to it!

What The Cloudy Wolf Gives Me: Beyond The Gray Sunset: Prelude "What Lies Beyond The Sunset? Adventure? Greed? Society? Delve into this series to embark on a journey that will satisfy even the most adventurous thrill seeker." Thank You in advance for playing this level, which was made with help from TheRougeAssassin. Check out our levels and leave us some feedback, heart us so that we can continue on future projects and don't forget to tell us what you'd like to see in future levels! Intended Difficulty: Easy Genre: 1 Player Recommended Notes From The Author: This level is just a prelude to the series and was mainly a focus on visuals and explaining an intro of what TheRougeAssassin and I hope will become a major working series. It was just a teaser of what we are capable of and not of how much we wanted to test the audience of LBP. The level may seem easy but please keep in mind that it's meant as an introduction into a new world full of wonders and the unknown (as cliche as it sounds lol). All in all,TheRougeAssassin and I, simply hope you enjoy the level! What I Give The Cloudy Wolf: Review Story: The story seems very mysterious, not much of it is known by the end of this level, but that simply hooks the player! The narrative is superb, like it was originally written for a book. The gameplay ties in with the story, too, so as the story doesn't feel like something just forced upon the player. I enjoyed my time reading through the short amounts o text, and they made me want to find out what this was all about. I haven't found out what it all means, but that's great considering it's a prelude! If it was told all in the beginning, why continue to play if you know what would happen and such? Pros: -Real Book-Like Narrative -Mysterious writing makes you want to see what's in store for the next part of the series -Gameplay ties in with the story, instead of just having the story and gameplay feel seperate. Cons: -Nothing I feel is quite bad on the story aspect, you seem to have it all down really well! Knit-Picks: -Add just a tiny bit more of story? Maybe it's just my craving for more. XD -The door talks about "quenching it's thirst" (Something similar to that), should it not be hunger because it eats the head off of the sack-person NPC? Suggestions: -Change the text from "quench" to "hunger"? Secenery: The scenery isn't something to marvel at, but it doesn't bruise your eyes. Its a good piece of simplicity, but maybe perhaps a lil' too simplistic? Though the main part of the series must be the narrative, it might help just to spruce up the cave sections a bit, maybe with different materials, cracks in the cave, ect. Pros: -Nothing hideous -The Gold City was kinda cool, and so was one of the cave sections in which their are jagged rocks sticking out. Cons: -Just a bit too bland Knit-Picks: -The street lights look wierd in the thick layer. -The LEDs obviously could be seen, maybe it's purposeful. -In sections of the cave the walls and floor are all one 3-layer material, looks a bit unnatural compared to if they were three 1-layer materials each a bit different than each other (Did you understand that?) -The boat looks....just awkward to me, maybe it's all the barnicals on the bottom, or just the shape. -the only character (Sack-person cut-out) looks wierd on the side. Suggestions: -Change the "pole" of the street lights to the thin layer. -Hide the lights underneath of the materials, if you don't want them to be seen. -Make the cave look more varied using different materials, creating cracks, and the like. -Make the boat more realilistic? I dunno really what makes it awkward to me... -Make the character grabbable theck, that way you won't see the side of him, but you can still grab him. Wow factor: Nothing really made me squeal like a little girl, though the level did have it's moments. The atmosphere of going swimming into the dark cave below while a really good choice of music played in the backround made me smirk, and how the character swirled around in the air and then got his head eaten off really surprised me. Oh, and the broken switch was a good choice. ; ) Pros: -Had some cool moments in it, even if they were a bit subtle. Cons: -Nothing exactly had me on the edge of my seat, which could help bring in more people to follow your series, where ever it may lead. Knit-Picks: -Same as the only con, I guess. Suggestions: -Add some more "special moments" or sudden events. Even incredibly small things like drip drops in the cave can add to the atmosphere, and the more you add to the atmosphere, the more "Wow Factor" you'll recieve! The most noteworthy moment I encountered was the flying sack. More events like that would make this go the extra mile. (Seriously, how did you do it?) All in all, I had a pleasureable experience, maybe from time to time I'll check back to see how your series progresses. The level and series has a bunch of potential to shine, so keep working on it! The grand results are.... :star::star::star: <3 So I remember to check it out later! Hope you liked the review!
