The Movies

Archive: 18 posts


My pick this week is 'The Movies' by Teebonesy. It's got a great film noir look to it. It captures the feel of an early 1900's New York City and it has REALLY cool animations. You have to see it.2008-12-31 03:57:00

Searching the author usually works best in my experience, so I'd search teebonezy. It should come up on the first page.

The movies is a fantastic level. I saw this when he only had one projector done. (he sent me a key for it) and i thought it was awesome then. It was supposed to be only a test, and then it ended up being a full level three days later! He really captured the whole feel of black and white movies. He's got the movies on a giant wheel, and sometimes they go off sync because of lag, but that's the smallest complaint in the world. Honestly, check this level out if you haven't, it is a visual experience like none other.2008-12-31 17:59:00

Oh wow, so weird to see this thread, having only now registered on this board.

Just wanted to thank you guys for the recommendation, and also to correct the spelling of my name - Teebonesy with an s, not a z. Although I imagine I probably came up in the searches anyway.

I'm flattered that people are spreading the good times! Thanks again to all.

Yeah this level is very nice. Also, I recommend Teebonesy's other level which is pretty cool as well.2009-04-27 03:53:00

This was a great level. I liked the talk after each animation and the posters which were photos from other levels.2009-04-27 15:05:00

Thanks everyone! I'm glad people are still finding this level, although these days it's all a slow trickle of word-of-mouth, as it was released before the latest updates to the levels pages, and will nowadays ONLY appear to people who seek it out and actively search for it. Which is a shame, I'd love to get it out to more people. But blah, what are you gonna do?

Anyway, I always appreciate the good words!

In a somewhat related, somewhat unrelated bit of news, I'm still working (in real life) on the film which the second of the three movies is taken from, The Library Chronicles. I just finished 3 days of shooting over the weekend, and will start editing those new scenes soon, but for now there's a new trailer up:

Have you tried the new republishing trick? Just make a change to the level (any little change, put dark matter somewhere you can't see it) and publish it over the level. I mean, it won't stick on Cool Levels or get you thousands of plays but its good for like 20 plays at a time.

What I do is I just add a space to the description.

I really love this, its always one of the first that i pick out when showing new LBPer's the game. Tons of charm, genuinely funny and I'm still bowled over by how it looks six months later. And i can never do the popcorn bit either.2009-04-29 12:55:00

I used to do that before they fixed Cool Levels. Now it seems to only work, for me at least, when you make a "change" to the level.
