Atlantis The Beginning

Hello everyone i will leave pictures out of the question for a more WOW factor of the level. I hope you enjoy this work as much as me and my friends have creating it.

:star::star::star::star::star::star::star::star::s tar::star::star::star::star::star::star::star::sta r::star::star::star::star::star::star::star:
Level Description:
It is a sequel of Poseidon's Temple which is one of my long gone levels. But now will possibly be a sequel in a sense inside itself.
You play as an adventure that was banished to Atlantis due to a bad offering to Poseidon. You must find your way out of the collapsing eroded place. Much machinery and creatures work and walk the area. There are three secret tridents hidden in the level you must find for a better score. I am very inspired by Greek mythology and Greek things in general due to my family background. The ruins and their secrets lie in your hands can you listen and escape. Find out in my brand new level Atlantis The Platformer.
:star::star::star::star::star::star::star::star::s tar::star::star::star::star::star::star::star::sta r::star::star::star::star::star::star::star:

Level Facts:
It took a little over a year to complete.
Sequel to a deleted level
Took about 4-5 friends who helped.
Inspired by Atlantis myths.

F4F, for Scorch the Cardboard: I think the level was okay, but it lacks details and some gameplay mechanics didn't play so well. It has potential to be a good level but needs some extra work. Thanks2013-01-04 11:56:00

which game-play mechanics did not work well? What details should be added? Keep in mind this is a sequel and the story-line is hinted in the descrip.2013-01-04 20:48:00

Its a very nice level with solid gameplay and nice visuals. The story is fine.
And it works with 3 players (you recommend one player)

Very enjoyable level! Good job!

Thanks so much avundcv and the reason it is 1 player recommended is due to when me and others play on it it generally causes lag and when that happens cheap deaths occur and things break. The main bug i have is the rock towards the end switching lanes if there is more than one player and without that rock you can't complete the level. But thank you for pushing the limits and letting me know it is ok.2013-01-05 04:05:00

ok, playing the level as I type. I like the opening, it's pretty cool, though that "loading" thing last a little too long. Shorten it by 5 - 10 seconds would be my choice. The sackbot is electrocuted by the water. Mmm, I don't know. maybe have it go off screen and put a destroyer on it to disappear before the water reaches it? Would be cleaner. These little structures, the columns and such look pretty cool.
Hmm, this don't look right.

are these supposed to be stone? Material change them to stone. Do you have the sticker cutter tool? It would clean up those lines around the sticker.
This part really bugged me, I don't know why. The water, is higher than the ground and you have to jump over the water to go by.

just past this section, the floor turns to spikes. cool. I died. then I had to watch the sequence again. I died again after this by a lightning bolt and had to watch the floor sequence again. Maybe put a counter set to 1 so that it only shows this one time.
Well I made it through the rest of it without too much trouble. That checkpoint just before the rotating blocks in front of the water fall didn't trigger when walking past it and I died and had to go way, way back. Maybe a player sensor on it so that it triggers when in range. All in all, not too bad, a few adjustments here and there. Good work on it.

Hi there ^^

I've played your level as well - and I liked it pretty much (beautiful design / nice gameplay ideas).
But unfortunately we couldn't finish the level:

http://i5.lbp.me/img/ft/f953dde99294b0e4e6629189ea5eb22626d4d198.jpg

It said "Quickly grab the vase" - but nothing happened...
Did we miss something - or is/was that a bug?

Thx, Lumina

it is a bug if you play with two people the stone does not roll by and tht is what causes the vase to fall i suggest playing again with 1player.2013-01-31 02:42:00

Sorry for the late answer (I couldn't find your level in the showcase area - where I thought it would be). ^^
And yes - I gave it another try - alone. And it worked. But it took quite some time for the stone to show up. I even went back to see, where it was. ^^

But to be honest - I didn't get a sense of being rewarded, for doing it all over again. ^^
Because nobody mentioned, that this was actually the ending. LOL
I thought the level would continue much further from there.

One more thing; The part where you have to grap those spinning "wheels" can lead to frustration. I recommend to increase the spinning speed of the first wheel, since it took me like forever to progress from there.
