My latest level! So called because I bought the Incredibles pack and was messing around with the materials, so this is a platform from which to show them off Oh and it so happens that there is some incredible platforming as well Screenshots:

There's a combination of slower platforming, enemy slaying and fast-paced bouncepad action. The bouncepads aren't 100% but I think they're pretty fun, can't wait for LBP2 to get my hands on decent ones

Also there is a 2-player puzzle section. You can complete it with 1p but it's tedious because you have to keep running upstairs and downstairs - it's designed for 2 people. See if you can solve it! It should tickle the brain cells and hopefully not break.

I published a seperate level called "Train Shunting Puzzle" that you can unlock by having a go at the puzzle in this level.

Feedback appreciated, and F4F as always!

You have an interesting level there.
At first I found the atmosphere quite strange (the color filter, the materials) but then the pleasure comes !
I really liked the speed corridors, it reminds me Sonic the Hedgehog
I liked also the enemies, the way there are deisgned and the way to kill them.
The maze behind the background is quite a good idea too.
Oh and I'm found of your deploying paltforms ! (particularly those which were thrown from the cannons).
At last the two less good things maybe I would say is the choice of the music and the length of the level (too short).

I gave :star::star::star::star::star:
I would be interested to know your opinion my level below, give it a try someday if you have time.
Great job anyway !

I played it, it was pretty good. The platforming was great but the visuals need some work. I gave it a 4 out of 52010-09-17 23:48:00

Great level!

I like the creatures. Destroying them was especially fun. The screams are a nice touch! A fun idea might be using the brains for some kind of puzzle or to open a secret door.

I tried the 2P section. By myself. Seven times. I still didn't figure it out. Just when I thought I had it, I would always push a block into the corner! Nothing broke while I played it, though.

The water sections were well-thought-out. Ya know...I played the level five times and never thought to go down the drain...

I enjoyed the little springy platforms. Particularly the ones that were shot from the cannons.

The bounce-pad sections were fun. I played extra times just to see if I could get the big combo!

Good job with the hidden paths in the background, but some of the doors were frustrating. I often didn't know which direction to go and sometimes had trouble getting into the backmost layer. A small price to pay for all the brain-yankin' fun!

Nice! This level looks great! I'm going to have to play this when I get back on. (Adding bookmark.)

Edit:

Ok, time to play!

At first I didn't understand how to kill those creatures, but then I grabbed its head and it popped off! lol, i like that.

Wow, I thought the part with the jump pad and the platforms that fell on top of the electric things was very unique, great job!

I kept getting killed by the electric cogs on the part where you are flying everywhere....

Wow, the fire platforms were crazy awesome! I didn't even know you could do something like that!

I love how it brings you back to the beginning of the level! Very nice job.

Ok, so, I absolutely love those platforms with the springs, that was genius! 5 stars from me! The only thing I would say needs improvement is the visuals/ environment. It could use a lot of work. But I loved the gameplay so much, I had to give it 5. Nice job!

You have already played my F4F level, so you don't need to play it again. (Unless you really want to...)

Just finished it now:

I really, really liked the part with the spring platforms that came down. That was pretty neat. I also thought the part with the descending fire platforms was really interesting. It's simple but effective! My favorite part of the level however, was showing you the lever at the beginning of the level which opens a door behind the starting checkpoint, I loved how the level linked all together.

I only had two problems with the level, one being the decor/theme of the level. I didn't quite understand it, but that's hardly a fault in the level and more a matter of taste.
The other problem I had was with the electric cog part. I couldn't seem to get the platform before the cogs to work while I was sliding by so I had to forcefully slow myself down on the glass slide before it. It took a few tries and was frustrating but once I got past that, everything was great! Great work!

Great level there! I gave it a well deserved 4/5 stars!

Pros:
Fun
Those springy platforms were fantastic! I really enjoy the use of those!
That cannon room was truly brilliant!
I liked how you made your own way for destroying creatures. and I liked how the creatures looked like!
Those fire platforms where you dragged them into the water was brilliant, also!

Cons:
The first room with the awesome spring platforms was a bit confusing at first. The bounce pad didn't seem to be quite visible and didn't react well when I went on it.
The room with the gears was just too hard. I would recommend you to de-electrify those gears, in my opinion.
I felt the need of some minor guidance, as I got lost a few times.

Keep up the good work there. I'd like to see what else you can do!

Right, I played it earlier.


Fairly simple level in gameplay.

No real nitpicks, other than relative emptiness and lack of a sees of what your doing.


Not much to comment on tbh. But I really liked those expanding platforms that dropped and or were shot.

:star::star::star::star:


As for F4F: the only thing I have is my spIECL (you can search that).
(I guess if you don't want to bump it you don't have to F4F it.)

Hey, thanks for the comments on my level.

Your level is really good, although it is very short.
-
The bounce off the walls to the top was an awesome idea, but I kept getting squashed whenever I moved too much.
+
It's fast paced and exciting.
The creatures are really cool and unique, and they look really creepy.
I personally like the visual style, I've never even seen that material before, I guess it is from one of the new packs.
The layering is really good, especially the background paths.
The speed maze part is really fun, and increases this levels replay value.
Really cool water gameplay and I like how you use it to put out the platforms.
Cannon part was awesome.
I like that you return back to the main room after going through a lot of parts.

I gave it 5 stars and a heart because it was so unique and exciting.

Great work on this level. The platforming gameplay works really well and the enemies are well made and a great way to destroy them by pulling the brain out [looks kind of like those spider-like robots from "Star Wars Return of the Jedi"]. For some reason, this level sort of reminds me of Lockstitch's levels because of some amazing logics like the spring launched into the small orbs and turned into the platforms perfectly. Overall, excellent work. 5 stars and a heart.

Play and F4F "The Hero Chronicles LV7 Dragon Ruins"

Hi ho... I played your level today and I really can say: great level dude! It was much fun to play!

I like the materials that you've used and there is some really cool plattforming here. I love the fold-out-plattforms - great stuff! Seeing this for the first time made me grin :-) The bump-up under the scoreboard is something I had in mind for a long time now, but I never created it by myself - very nice element! One word to the 2x section: oh boy - incredible - amazing puzzler! Only suggestion: you could make a sign to the "re-set" grabber - I used this grab after a few minutes (in the play-alone locked-level of this puzzle) and dang: all was set back :-) hehe

I read above, that someone destroyed the creatures - em, er, well, I didn't cause I thought that this wouldn't be possible ^^ All in all a great level that could have been a bit longer and needs some decos/stickers - it was a bit clean here and there. I gave 4stars and a heart!

Keep up the good work!

Neo :-)

Hi mate! I played this level and I liked it. First thing I want to tell you is that you use your materials in great ways! Second that your design of visual impact was great.
Good:
+ I liked the gameplay. A lot. Especially underwater part. Or then I just haven't played good levels in ages, wich this was.
+ Material use for visual design.
+ Pure feeling of awesomness this one gave.
Bad:
- Even that visuals are good, I personally like more detailed than what this level has.
- Points and score bubbles seemed to be located randomly in piles in couple places.
- I played this level twice, first with 2 players ( since my cousin visited us ) and then alone ( Because he really sucks at this game ). I really have to say that even that this level is good with 2 players, it gives u the best experiment if u play it alone.
Overall: :star::star::star::star::star: great 1 player gameplay satisfyis me alot and it also was UNIGUE, one of a kind creation, I have no idea of source of inspiration. As
F4F i would like you to play my level: 'Marshy dungeon of Mysteries' thank you!
