Need help with a level of mine

Archive: 4 posts


Alright, I need peoples' opinions:
I dumped a ton of time into this level (Bouncarooni 2), and I really like the results. So do other people, apparently, as the heart to play ratio is 1:4. The level only reached the fourth page of the cool pages, and has a whimsical amount of plays...
It's now off of the cool pages completely from what I can tell, which means the plays aren't going to be going up much other than from people from LBPC.

Why did the level do so poorly, despite the outstanding reviews and hearts on it? Is it the icon? The name? DId I not advertise it enough? (I'm not going to spam comments on levels -- that's just plain stupid)
I'm not entirely satisfied with the icon that I made (I suck at making them) -- it's way too simple. Maybe it isn't eye-catching enough?

I'm considering changing what's wrong and deleting the level, then republishing it fresh and new. I don't really want to have to do this, as then I'll lose the reviews and such that are already there, but I probably will end up doing this. I need YOUR opinion. Please give me any feedback you have. Thanks.

Also, if anyone is great at making level icons -- Add me on PSN (SneakymodeEngage) if you're willing to help me out with one or even make one for me. I'm terrible at them.

Here's the level in the showcase (https://lbpcentral.lbp-hub.com/index.php?t=60234-Bouncarooni-2-(Survival-Challenge))

There are a lot of factors that can decide whether or not a level gets a lot of plays. Sometimes it can be the icon, and sometimes it's the name. But it really all depends on the variable; the players.

Personally, I might not have played a level with an icon such as yours if I'd just come across it on the cool pages, but that's just my opinion of course.

I would suggest making the icon a little more eye-catching, to see if that works.

The icon was my bet of why people weren't playing it -- too bad I'm absolutely horrible at making them.
If you have any suggestions for an icon for me to make, I'm listening.

Also, play it! I promise it's good!

I have a new icon that a friend helped me make -- is this good?
If you think you could make a much better one that suits the level, add me on PSN and meet with me in LBP2!
