ok im currently working on my third full level, its got an asian vibe to it, and it doesnt have that much to it yet, a couple thwompy things, and three small enemies, and my thermometer is half full on a large crater! im scared because i doubt i will be able to fit everything i want it the level. There arent many corners eaither, i tried to keep everything in a fairly rectangular shape, and not many corners, becuase i heard more corners take up more space, am i doing somthing that i shouldnt?

Just split everything up a little bit, it really helps.

i learned alot especially the craters i never knew the size of craters mattered. and by the way enemies take up lots of space

what do you mean by "lots of variations?

I heard that crater size doesn't matter. Also, do not use too many materials and keep your corners down. Other than that, yeah it is a bummer.

make your level have part 1 and 2 it seems like the only way out so you can make your level freely

what do you mean by "lots of variations? In other words, try not to use metal, wood, different colors of wood, sponge, cardboard, dark matter, all in the same level. Instead, try to keep the only materials you use to a minimum in variation, in other words, keep it all the same theme. I.E. Use just wood and sponge, otherwise as soon as you put down a tiny piece of a different material, it has to cache it, so that takes up the most memory. But after it's cached, further drawings of that material take hardly anything. It's the initial memory overhead of importing a material that is the main problem.
