Just Queued it Gonna play as soon as I get the chance =3

EDIT:
Ok Just got done plaing this level and here is my review on it. Now dont take it the wrong way when I mention some things I didnt like personally its just what I think could be fixed or improved in this level. Lets start with the sky diving idea, its great and I love how you used sacbots siting in the plane as latter they may jump out aswell. I also like how you opend the plane windows to let use see where our character was moving. But I will say though maby you should try to make it so the plane actully looks like its moving instead of looking like it was hovering like a heli. You could use cameras to add a shakeing look or maby use something to make the Airplane move but still be station in the same area. Or you could make the clouds in the background move all in all if the air plane looks like it was moving itd be cool in my opinion. In the end its all up to you.

Moving on to the actual level itself. Now mind you its a sky diving level and when you jump out of a plane you fall very very fast. Trust me on that ive done it and its scary. When I jumped out of the plane with my bold sac person I expected to be falling pretty fast. This wasnt the case. I was falling very very slow, now I dont know if this was done on purpouse to guide your sac person through the rings or not. But I do know that this could be improved. Maby try a faster decent and spread the rings out, and apart so you can reach them. Heres my opinion on a cool looking decent I would try some camera angles to see whats below you that would be boss. Along with the slow decent I felt like it was just draging on an on, if this was intentional then cool whatever fits your fancy. Just coming from the players perspective make it a little faster but keep the calm falling feel. =3 sound effects will also help like when your body is cutting through the air making the wooshing noises. I noticed also when I was falling and finally got closer to the bottom that others were jumping out of the plane. This makes sense but they were falling like rocks whille im just slowly floating my happy self through rings. Im not apposed to the others jumping out, I just think its pointless because im not getting there speed of a decent. I thought it was halarious none the less.

Lets go back to plane real fast. I had to replay the level a few times because I could jump out the plane in a totally differnt place. This can be fixed very easily by putting a see through window there. I would also put some sort of directions on the camera controll. I didnt know where my sac person was at until I pressed circle. You should also put an arrow pointing left to let the player know where they should jump out if you dont use the see through window idea (I highly recomend you use the glass idea unless you want those annoying glitch comments) overall The level was great and I know if you fix the things I mentioned the level will get more views and hearts. I cant wait to see what this level could turn into =D

Pros:
-The Idea of sky diving is Great
-Useing sacbots to really tie in the feel of the skydiveing
-Very colorful intro it made me want to stay for what was to come
-Loved the clouds that we're in the level
-Enjoyed the feeling of free falling =D

Cons:
-minor glitches that can easily be fixed in a update of the level (Window jumping)
-poor sense of direction and controlls (Again this can easily be fixed)
-Like I said im not sure if it was done on purpose but falling slow.

Good luck =3
