The Land of Tasks - My First level since Beta

Archive: 12 posts

Ok, it took me quite a while but its finally done, I named it The Land of Tasks.

Theres about 5 tasks to complete, each one differently based to the other. It envolves: Sponge lifts, Jumping over fire pits, Wobbly Bridges, Killer Sackboys, Swinging things, Slides, Putting Blocks into the right places and other stuff that i cant remember

I tried to make the atmosphere as good as i could and made it difficult whilst being easy with alot of Checkpoints. I hate levels where you have to completely redo them if you lose all your lives.

Please play it and tell me what you think! Point out all issues with the level (even minor ones), Tell me how i could make it better and Just comment on the whole thing

I think theres still room for improvement so any ideas to extend the level would be brilliant!

Keywords to find it: MIKE95 The Land of Tasks

Location on LBP Globe: Near United Kingdom

Heres the video kindly Recorded by Bassdeluxe!:

EDIT: I've added more colour to my level now and changed a few of the objects! Check it out

You say that about ever level...
I'm not convinced you actually play them, and are not just trying to get points.

Edit: Good, looks like I'm not imagining things..		2008-11-27 00:24:00

Are you going to work on sprucing up the background?

I like levels that aren't as blank.
It's not a slight against your level though, so don't get me wrong! :eek:		2008-11-27 01:44:00

Yeah, i was thinking about putting The gardens background on but i wanted to see what you thought first. What background do you think will work best?		2008-11-27 09:13:00

That was a really cool level. It's simple, fun, clean and interesting! Well done!

Just some suggestions to improve on it...

I would add a check point in the fire jumping section (the first task) as it's a long way back if you miss a jump.

I'd also look into sensor activated lifts. I rode on the giant sack boy and got on the lift, then jumped off half way... but the lift stayed up. I was stuck and could not finish the level.

I believe it's a matter of attaching a sensor switch, and making it directional when attached to the piston. I think that's it at least.:o

But once again, I had a lot of fun playing your level. Very funky! 		2008-11-27 15:06:00

Thanks for your great feedback mate

I have edited my level and made the Sponge lift automatically move up and down and a path above the sackboy if you fall off and want to get back on him.

I'll add some checkpoints onto the fire part when i next get a chance

EDIT: Put in the Checkpoints and made a few basic changes to landscape

If anyones got any ideas for backgrounds please let me know 		2008-11-27 16:24:00

I think the Gardens background will work best for your theme.

The level is really fun too. I like it, it's not too hard, but not too easy, and there's a good amount of variety, so nice job. (Too many commas xP)		2008-11-27 18:10:00

Thanks mate, The one thing i hate about the gardens background is that the ground (bricks) does not go well with my level.		2008-11-28 12:41:00
