The River Styx REVIEW: Well Gigglecrab, I have to say I will walk away with several ideas spawning from your level, The River Styx. It's too bad you can't transfer the atmosphere you created into the picture links you provided as it was top notch creepy and set the tone immediately. Fantastically done with the visuals and great usage of water. Not over the top and the lighting provided in the water kept you enthralled to pursue further into your world. So all and all, graphical presentation was top notch with the exception and I may be hated for this one, but the final boss was lackluster compared to its environment. The Boss prior however was fantastically detailed and I wanted to stop and just stare at the detail. Unfortunately this couldn't be done for too long. Soundtrack fit perfectly and environment sounds were done very well throughout. Game play was simple and quite direct, jump here to there but oddly enough it was perfectly fine and entertaining. The boss fights I honestly think could use a tad more work, it just felt something was missing. The use of falling rocks were spot on during the game. This was done very well and pushing towards 5 stars, but will have to give it 4 stars simply because of the boss fights. There was one part in the level that actually had me wondering if I should really push forward or not (as it actually had my nerves and hair standing up), but I don't want to spoil the fun for others... Excellent Level, :star::star::star::star: <3 Would love to get your own feedback on my one (and only ) level in the F4F https://lbpcentral.lbp-hub.com/index.php?t=38724-Cave-Exploration-Part-1

thank you very much! how flattering,i agree with you about the boss,it was very hard to think of how it would be fought etc,but i think i will leave it as it is for now. the levels at a point where a single twitch on the existing scenery with the corner editor will make it overheat. iv improved alot of other areas of the level tho,added afew little details and fixed some leaks. im tryin to polish it to its best.glad to hear my level inspired you t XD that makes me very happy. i will defo try your level and review it when im next on lbp,thanks again for your reveiw i was starting to think no one was going to post

I played this level quite a while ago and thought it was fun and played it again recently after seeing your page here. You blended your materials into the background real nicely and your choice music added to the intense atmosphere of the level. I liked the little eyeball enemies a lot. They're really creepy looking, very simple to make, but effective. The only problems were the boss and the teleporters. You don't have to do much after the first part of the boss except to try and avoid enemies and I just don't like teleporters much at all. Also the lighting changes a little at the boss and there isn't much stuff in the background there which made it feel too open and empty to me. Aside from that the level had a nice atmosphere and tone to it.

thank you! while i was building i didnt have a teleporter planned at all,but without realising i had built to the end of the level and tryed afew ways to build up and continue left,but it never looked right. the remains are actually hidden off screen still lol. so the teleport was the easiest option,shame becouse it takes away the ability to ace it. then again i couldnt of got that finish without a teleport,well i guess could of but would of been difficult.i never noticed how empty the boss area was till i read that...im definetly going to try and improve that now. gotta do some thermo breaking first tho. thanks alot for posting! i really appreciate it

Here's a little tip: instead of attaching your images to your post, post the links to your images in the main body of your post and wrap tags around the link. The image should then appear as standard within the post. Hope this helps!
