Happy Gardens: Out From The Light (HORROR)
Archive: 18 posts
CONTINUE TO READ FOR PLOT SPOILERS. So, This level takes place in what was believed to be an abandoned mental institution after an unmentionable inccident. The Owner and Lead-Phycologist/ Scientist however remained mysteriously in the building with the hope of curing his son Edward and the other patients exposed in the incident, where an experimental drug of his creation went terribly wrong. They remain in the building with him, growing more hidious and violent after each failed "Cure" he comes up with. Today is the day though, he's done it. But what he's done is beyond us all. http://lbp.me/v/9ncc-8 | 2012-01-28 20:12:00 Author: drei Posts: 158 |

Well... I just got done playing this one and weird is the word I use to describe it. VISUALS: The visuals on this one are a two sided coin for me. On one side I love the way the feel is and I really like the direction the creator was going with this. It is very creep and gory which I really like. The overall look of the level is right up my ally. The thing I didn't like was the execution of this style. I really think that shaky camera and wide open areas kind of take away from that creepy feeling. GAMEPLAY: I am really not sure how explain this, but I really didn't even "get" the level. There were really no real hazards that I encountered except for the cutscene that killed me and after I died I guess the level ends. This was a bit confusing because I wasn't sure what the point of the level was. There were no puzzles, no obstacles or real direction. It kind of felt like a weird Haunted House that had no real meaning but to just walk through and get scared or until you die. I guess I was just hoping that it would be a little more engaging. FINAL THOUGHTS: I think this level is really cool looking and has a creepy feel that is top notch, I just feel there is a lot missing in the gameplay department. RATING: Visuals: 4 Stars Gameplay: 2 Stars Overall: 3.5 Stars VERDICT: Good Job! F4F - The House of 1000 Skulls | 2012-01-30 17:07:00 Author: xiSiCx Posts: 125 |
Woah woa man, you didn't finish the level. The point is to survive, figure out the right path and discover the story behind it. Yeah it was more of an experiment to see how people responded but no hard feelings i'll play your level when you finish hah. | 2012-01-30 17:29:00 Author: drei Posts: 158 |

Yeah it was more of an experiment to see how people responded but no hard feelings i'll play your level when you finish hah. I might give it another go, but honestly, if finishing the level is your "requirement" to fulfill the F4F, then that makes me want to not play it again. I took the time to play your level and I took the time to leave detailed feedback on it's thread, so I would expect the same from someone posting a F4F titled level. Chances are, if you played my level, you wouldn't get through it either, but if you were to leave feedback on my thread, I would still comply to the F4F regardless if you finished it or not. I'll tell you what, don't even bother with my level, (I prefer it that way) and you can take my feedback on your level for what ever it is worth to you, but you should take the F4F out of your Thread's title because you clearly don't know how it works! Sorry if your "requirement" seems to rub me the wrong way, but I will be quite honest with you... It does! | 2012-01-30 17:50:00 Author: xiSiCx Posts: 125 |
Sounds good, I will give it a try. | 2012-01-30 19:09:00 Author: Unknown User |

Alrighty, Gave it a go, heres what I thought: =) -VERY scary. Honestly I wouldn't be suprised if this gets moderated eventually for the sheer haunting nature of the level (I mean this in the NICEST way possible) -My type of atmosphere, Great visuals, scary moments, tons of jump scares. (LOVE scary levels) -Great use of fog and level lighting effects, although at some points the flashing lights could get a little disorienting. -This is more of a nitpick, but I had to restart multiple times because you can only have 1 life (Unless I'm doing it wrong), and the elevator (I think) Glitched on me and flew me straight out of the level into water below, and I was unable to escape from the elevator to swim around to see if anything was there. -When I DID finish the level I really enjoyed it. youve got yourself a nice story here, and the characters are haunting. Great work. FINAL VERDICT: Gameplay: 3/5 Visuals: 5/5 Sounds/ Music: 5/5 Lighting: 4/5 Additional notes: I gave it a "yay" and will return for part two! keep up the creepy work! F4F (if you have the time =)) is in my signature (Vinewood Swamp) Thanks for the mid-day scare! =D | 2012-02-01 17:26:00 Author: grayspence Posts: 1990 |

Just played it, the visuals were nice, and the sounds were great, this level really got to me at times... I do think that the gameplay was lacking though. Look forward to the next part! F4F in my sig | 2012-02-04 17:53:00 Author: arsenalfan_1995 Posts: 229 |
I don't like one-hit game over, but I'll try again. Oh wait. It's trial and error? I should find the only safe path? | 2012-02-09 12:34:00 Author: Unknown User |
right, it's trial and error, if you do it correctly theres an ending where you wont die. | 2012-02-10 02:20:00 Author: drei Posts: 158 |
I liked opening scene, and path choosing aspect. That running guy with two lamps tied to him was hilarious. So I found doctor and after some dialogues level has ended. It is true ending? | 2012-02-10 10:27:00 Author: Unknown User |

Yuhs, thats the ending, OF PART ONE. I'm working on part two and it will be MUCH scarier with more gameplay focus and will possibly be the best level i have created. Im going all out. | 2012-02-10 20:11:00 Author: drei Posts: 158 |
UPDATE: The full complete version of part one has arrived. Happy Gardens Part 2 & 3 are currently on their way! If you missed this level before, please try it now it's tons better. | 2012-02-18 04:35:00 Author: drei Posts: 158 |
