My first shooter-platformer level

Archive: 3 posts


Hi everyone,
Just wanted to share my first level. It's a Star Wars theme and it did take me few days to a week to make. It's actually quite simple but it was fun and a pain to make all at the same time. I know there might be some small issues with it, but I am willing to work with anyone who can give me some pointers. I know I'm leaving myself open for critisizm, but hey, I like constructive critisizm. There are 3 levels after the opening cutscene. I tried to make them as challenging as I could without making it stupid hard.
Thank you, and please rate and heart if you think it deserves it.
Mike
psn mikenmikey

oh yeah, and by the way right now it is only 1 player but I do plan on making it a 2 player.

Played it. Didn't rate because I wanna see what all you do with it. I think it is an ambitious level but there are three things that I would change. 1) The speed is waaayyyy too slow. When I think Star Wars Shooter, I think lightning fast and intense space shoot-outs. No offense but I almost fell asleep. 2) When the TIE fighters are spawning, I can see them at the top, waiting to spawn but yet they can still shoot at me. Oh and it was kind of annoying that a few of them got to the bottom of the screen and were turned towards me and still firing with nothing I to do about it. 3) The life and health ups weren't very responsive. I missed a few and couldn't tell why.

Those are the most important fixes I would focus on for now. Once you get those issues out of the way, try adding a few different enemy variations and a Star Wars sound track.

F4F the level at the bottom of my sig. Thanks in advance.

Thanks, I know they start to move slow. I used a randomizer through a selector to follow 6 different tags that are moving at the bottom. but somehow they don't respond right away. I'll see what I can do with the spawning/response thing. The other stuff is an easy fix. I will check out your stuff too, should have some time on sunday, gat a car to work on, then get back to the game if my son isn't on it. I did que your level.
Thanks,
Mike

I made things move faster, added 2 player support, and tweaked a few other little things. It's pretty hard to get to the boss level with only 1 player, but I think it should be a lot better now.
