This is just an idea, and anybody who is interested can make a level based on this idea. You know that game, Bastion, where there is a narrator who comments on the stuff that's happening and what the Kid is doing? Well, I was thinking of a type of platformer, except that the game insults you based on what you're doing! It'll be a generic platformer with basic visuals, featuring bounce pads, grappling hooks, grabinators, creatinators, etc; as well as some puzzles. The narrator of the game's voice will be triggered by the player and his/her actions. I want the insults be sort of like how GLaDOS insults you in the Portal Games. Here are a few ideas: Sackthing enters the level: Oh look, another one of YOU again.. by Wolffy123, or Sackthing, platforming in yet another vain attempt to lose weight-by me. I can't decide. Sackthing is happy: "I'll be happy when this is over." Sackthing is sad: "Trust me, I'm a lot more unhappy than you are." Sackthing is angry: "Just think about how angry I am at you." Sackthing is scared: "Saw your reflection, didn't you?" Sackthing opens popit menu: "You know what I'd like to pop? Your head." Sackthing changes costume: "You'll always be ugly in my heart." Sackthing goes to stickers and decorations: "What are you, three years old?" Sackthing tries to text: "I guess I should be thankful I don't have to hear your voice." Sackthing jumps a lot: "You're not getting any taller." Sackthing walks into a wall: "You're not reversing any brain damage." Sackthing dies from fire: "Sackthing is charged with arson!" Sackthing dies from electricity: "Sackthing is charged with battery!" Sackthing dies from gas: "Your chemical warfare experiments never went that well." Sackthing respawns: "I think you're the checkpoint's vomit." Sackthing uses retry tool: "If only I could do that." Sackthing bounces on bounce pad: "Funny how you manage to do all those twirls and spins without vomiting, and yet how I manage to vomit every time I see you." Sackthing gets the grappling hook: (I don't know) Sackthing swings with the grappling hook: "Spiderman is rolling over in his grave." Sackthing gets the grabinators: "Oh look! Steroid mittens!" Sackthing throws something with the grabinators: "Just because you an oaf doesn't mean you should take it out on those objects." Sackthing is hanging with the grabinators by holding an object that slides across something, sort of like in Brainy Cakes or Roller Inc. 2 (it looks like this): http://i9.lbp.me/img/ft/e799abcbb761910d67b693ac1098847e7881b178.jpg "Sackthing's nose starts to inch. (Waits a few seconds) Oh wait, you don't have a nose. Shame, you can't experience your own stench." Sackthing gets the creatinator: "Shame you can't create a girlfriend..." Sackthing shoots objects with the creatinator: "You aren't actually shooting, the ammunition is just trying to get away from you as fast as possible. Sackthing is trying to solve a puzzle: "With all that fluff, I'm afraid there's no room for a brain." Sackthing solves a puzzle: "The guy who made these puzzles must be stupider than Wheatley." I've even wrote some lyrics: (To the tune of Daisy Bell) Sackthing, Sackthing, You smell like an old shoe... People screaming, Just at the sight of you... I know that it's hurt you're feeling, But you're just not that appealing. It's true, amen, that we think Mm, should have stopped at Rag Doll Kung Fu. That's all the ideas I have now for insults. So, whaddya think? Is it too mean, or do you like the idea? I probably won't work on this, since I'm involved with other projects. Besides, the thermometer logistics for this will be nightmarish, and it'll have to span many level links. But if somebody wants to make platformers with GLaDOS-esque narrators, by all means, do. You can even use what I wrote, as well as add new insults.

This sounds... EPIC. Seriously, that's just sheer genius. If this isn't published, there's something wrong with you. ;p Can't wait to see this. It would be cool if you made it like a simulation where you get put into different themes, and the person that talks/owner can place different obstacles, etc so that it's different set of obstacles each time. Just an idea.

"Oh look! Steroid mittens!" XD That was classic. Idea for when sackboy enters the level: (Sackboy Enters), "Oh look, another one of YOU again.." Yes?.. No..? Anyways.. This type of level will be neat, but you would have to hold off with the insults to MM or it will be moderated.

Wow...thanks for the positive feedback. I'd love to publish this, but I suck at making platformers (there's a reason why most of my levels are movies). I would need help from somebody good at that kind of stuff. Even if there was somebody, I'm still working on Robmandx's Detective Duo movie. So, if I have no projects I'm working on, or am not busy, I could maybe start working on the level. As I said before, if anybody wants to use this idea in their levels, by all means, do. BTW-I added some new insults.

Great idea! it wouldn't even be that hard... use a sackbot, have it change behavior the same way a sackboy would and have it activate speech or emit text. also i wouldn't worry about the thermometer, i don't think that would make it very hot, as long as you keep the level itself fairly cold.

I would need help from somebody good at that kind of stuff. BrosefJenkins and I make a great team. (He commented earlier). And, judging by his short attention span (jk, ) he will probably want to give this a try, and he will drag me along with him. So maybe we can help you out. .. But we both have projects at the moment. Mine is almost done. I don't know about his.

Great idea! it wouldn't even be that hard... use a sackbot, have it change behavior the same way a sackboy would and have it activate speech or emit text. It could be even easier. Maybe you could just have a controlled by nearest player controllinator (we will use 1 player platformer logic) that detects what the player is doing emotion-wise, popit-wise, etc, without need for the popit sackbot. I have become involved in another project, sadly. If Wolffy123 and BrosefJenkins want to make, then they can do so on their own. It will take weeks before I start working on this, if I ever do. Anybody else can use this idea without need for my permission.
