Simon Says

Archive: 11 posts


Hello folks,
here is my latest creation:

http://i1138.photobucket.com/albums/n539/sascha_winter/APhoto-1.jpg

Thats right, the old school electronic "Simon Says"

Features:

-10 levels that progressively build on themselves
-Fully functional randomizer
-Adaptive music
-Winner recieves pass to view logics

*Note*
-i believe i have two bugs which are difficult to contain
1.) due to emitter lag, if the player inputs too quickly, the 1st emitted key blocks the 2nd input. Which in turn no second input is registered.
2.)it seems that 5%-10% of the time the user will recieve a pass and fail signal at the sametime. I'm attepting to narrow the level in which this occurs, but LBP community is no help.

I must say the logics for this level was a complete bear to fine tune, please let me know about any bugs, thanx.

Cool! I like this kind of levels. It makes you feel excited, and wanting to try again. But I think the inputs should be more separated, to avoid accidents. :star::star::star::star::star:<3
Now, please check my level:

Just played it, it was great. The interface was great, with lights to show you what's going on, and everything was very clean. The sound was good as well. I liked how the background music was loud and proud when you succesfully pressed the buttons in the right order, but quieted down when it was time to memorize and input. I REALLY liked how you managed to make the order random everytime. Very impressive. Also the visuals worked great for the level, and I liked how all the logic was color coded. Although I am sure that was a necessity.

One flaw however, is how short and easy it is. I can't imagine that you could have made it very long though because of the limitations of LBP itself, so I can't rate it down much for that.

I gave it a :star: :star: :star: :star: :star:

Edit: Right, I forgot. Another plus is that it works well.

Sascha, I dont know what the issue is with people and there ratings, 3 Stars for that???? That is horrifically horrible if you ask me and all those people who rated it 3 stars should be #$@&^@ and then @#$%^! and not too mention !#^@#$!!!

...Sorry, I think it was :star::star::star::star::star: - <3

It was very cleverly done and the concept to bring that classic game to LBP is ingenious! I loved it and only wanted it to continue more past 10 levels. If there was an ability to increase it beyond that, I certainly would do so, that way it can really push what our minds can do and also give us bragging rights. For some reason though, Green did not light up for me. Its a randomizer I know, but not sure if was pure coincidence or if it goes beyond that.

Suggestions would be to make the lights on the right hand side a bit larger so there a tad bit more visible. Even on a 50" they were a teeny bit small
Another would be when you finish the 10 levels (or more ) you have the same color lights (B,G,R,Y) on a wheel that is activated (starts spinning) when you finish the level so there are more lights flashing through the level. Just something that gives a greater sense of completion and accomplishment. Other than that, great job and you certainly do crank the levels out!!

Feel free to take a second play on my level as it has had many updates, but please dont feel obligated!

yes it is extremely annoying to play a level that makes you think "how??" and seeing it only has 3 stars. probaly from noobs who didnt read the description or speech bubbles that tell you what to do,only have to read the comments to see. i thought it was brilliant,was quite fun to play too,i was very impressed with it. levels like this keep me interested in lbp.2010-12-03 03:35:00

Great level! Really loved the idea, it was very fun!
My only complaint is that, as was said before, the grab switches are a little too close, and I ended up losing because of a mis-grab.
This is an easy fix though.
5 stars, for the fun gameplay!

Thanks for the feedback. With the multiple requests on the grab switchs, I will spread them out a tad to avoid misgrabs.2010-12-30 12:49:00
