[LBPC6] A Demons Parlay (LV4) Breaking The Odds

Archive: 5 posts


Hi everyone! Just wanted to post my newest level up here. My chapter of the 4 part series is set in a volcano, so expect to see plenty of lava, and hear lots of rumbling!

Also, I want to thank my teammates. You guys have been great, and i couldn't have done it without ya. This series was truly a team effort...

Hope you all enjoy it

Ok, the other night when this was released I played through all of them.

All of them had their own personalities (and I'll comment on those separate).

#4 was probably the most frenetic, confusing, exciting, and rockin' levels I've ever played. Seriously. Much of the way through things were happening so fast around me, and so many things were collapsing... I would just get the hang of a gameplay concept and BAM! The world would collapse around me and I ended up at the next section.

Although it feels unique, it also feels like it was cut from the same cloth as your Marathon level... it's been a few years since I played it, but I immediately remembered some of the visual elements and gameplay nuances.... although this is also, at the same time, different. Probably a bit of your style showing through.

The volcanic rocks blasting me into the air was fantastic, and I also loved being dunked down near the lava and suddenly having it spin around on me.

Fantastic job - I don't see how anyone can play this without getting their blood flowing.

Thanks CCubbage! Yea it does resemble my marathon level;P. I kinda stole some elements from it, while trying to make it fresh. I also basically used only one material throughout the whole level, partly trying to save thermo, and partly trying to see if I could make it look good that way. I was also going for an action packed thrill ride. I mean come on, my teammates are a hard act to follow.2012-01-25 11:39:00

This is the best of the four levels.The volcanic obstacles, like being on air by a lava flow and hanging on to a rock for a ride, are exhilarating and pure genius that will amaze the players. This level also has great extra layered visuals and custom musics. I hilariously liked the "Meow Mix" reference when I collected one of Velvet--Audio's musics. There's one bug I found in this level. After the first rock ride while hanging on to it with grappling hook and right between the two bone objects, I mysteriously got stuck in some hole that I have to respawn in order to escape. Great job on the whole series, Velvet--Audio, L1GhTmArE, Alley_Cat_8633 and smasher.
VISUALS: 5/5
