Archive: 11 posts


Hallo,

this is my new level:


Tetris Survival Challenge

Link: Tetris Survival Challenge (http://vita.lbp.me/v/-jz4t)

Its basically an action survival challenge, where u avoid falling Tetris Blocks and collect as much points as you can get. You got 1 Life, thats it ^^ There are 4 Levels alltogether, which each increase in difficulty. It has an arcade/retro feeling to it. [dunno if such an lvl ever existed in lbp, since i only play lbpv, but i mostly got this idea of an indie game called "I wanna be the guy")

Its most fun in multiplayer:

U can choose between 3 different Music Titles, ofc i included the Tetris Main Theme (thx to lymmusic), but if u get sick of it theres some alternative ^^

Theres even the option to change the color:

I included a Secret Area, which is a Platformer part with alternative ending, but u have to find out for yourself how to get there, if u beat the game on normal mode u will get a hint. Its basically Level 5, which got lost during the process hehe.

Well i hope u enjoy the level, it took me quite some while, i tried to fix almost any bugs i could find or problems which could occur, and believe me there were alot. Had quite some pain dealing with those problems, besides that i once had a baddream about falling tetris blocks trying to squash me haha (seriously) Anyways i really gave my best to polish it at the end.

Gimme your feedback!

Have fun

Thx to ninjaballz28, cakito123 and some others for trying it out with me before publishing

P.S.: This is F4F, so tell me what i lvl i should feedback or play

Hi there !
That's a really great Survival with an original concept ! It's pretty fun to play and challenging too ! I personally didn't encounter any issue. I will try to play it in multiplayer mode ! I just think you could add the possibility to see the leaderboards, that would be funnier ! When we die, that would be nice to go back to the main menu ( to play it again ) with a button to leave the level and another for the leaderboards. Do as you want, the level stills really good ! I hope you'll get the success you deserve !

Hey there

Really enjoyed this! Really fun, and original idea! Great looking menu, loved the who retro feel. Great music and nice options for colour change well done indeed, will try and get around to playing more of your levels!

Ok, first off, I didn't et into the score board.. I died half way through level two, the options menu appeared, could change music and colur, but the back button didn't send me to the score board... Guess it broke?

Few ideas.... It would e really nice to see a bit more I the screen rather than that horrid large black floor which takes up about a third of the playing area.
Perhaps speed up the time it takes for the blocks to start falling when you first start ( as I you are waiting around quite a long time for the game to start.?
I'd say leek two got a little too hard to quickly, perhaps major them fall a tad slower?

Great level dude! much fun was had by me, I hope I don't dream of blocks falling on my head tonight

I don't have a thread for my new level yet, but would love some feed back in a message . It's a tip down shooter ( http://vita.lbp.me/v/-6rcg ) almost ready to publish but really really need some beta testing from people first

Add me if you like it dude

Hi thanks for your feedbacks, i recently updated the level and added the scoreboard to it. People allready scored now lol... im happy it gets attention hehe... it was really stupid of me not adding it in the first place ... "facepalm" guess how long i needed for adding it? 5 Seconds. No joke. LoL.

I really have difficulties to adjust the difficulty (lol) so that its balanced. I tend to make things too hard or too easy, i know the first level starts kinda slow.. too slow tbh... the 2nd therefore is too fast. The 3rd and 4th are fine i guess. Well this is gonna be pretty ugly to change lol... i had to calculate the timing for every blocks its own when to dissappear, so i would have to change that, it would screw it all up.

The Camera View... i tried to play around with a fixed/flat 2D Camera... looked great but didnt work out so good... i guess its possible somehow. Digitalbytes offered his help. Maybe i can do something there.

Well, i was kinda lucky in the past, with publishing levels getting on top of the cool pages and everytime that happens its exicitng to watch. People spread out on your planet, playing your other levels lol... but im kinda ashamed of my older levels now, cause there were pretty much the first levels i ever created lol and now i can do more sophisticated work, allthough i see myself still as total beginner hehe...

What bothers me a bit is that noone seems to find the "lost level" lol... im kinda interested on what people got to say about that one.

Well heres how it works:

In the title Screen, on the Tetris logo, theres one block a bit darker than the rest, its on the "i" if u go over it with your rear touch, it electrifies the block, wait for the rabbit to jump into it and there u go

Hehe, can't believe you actually didn't place a score board

Well, I certainly would have noticed the 'secret' bonus level, I doubt many would notice that, perhaps give a hint when you finish? Or a hint in game?
I noticed you had alot of plays last night, 19 I believe when I was playing!!

I was going to give some of your other levels a go last night, but when I saw things like 'shark attaxk' and the likes, I was kinda put off hahah. I was then wondering if you were just a spammer but after all your feed back you've given me in messages I realised that I certainly miss-judged you there!
Keep up the good work mate, it's all a very slow learning curve with lbp

Yeah ! I finally did it ! This "Lost Level" is a very great idea ! The mechanics are well done, but the final section is pretty hard .I although don't think you have to decrease the difficulty. Good job again ! 2013-01-17 23:50:00

Neat little level. I like the idea of turning classic style games into something else. IE: Tetris into a platforming survival challenge.

I agree with the camera issues previously stated, perhaps a simple fix would be to just pull the camera back a little bit further?

Oh and just FYI: I did not beat all four levels. But still saw the "Kill the Bunny" hint after the end of the level. So there may be a logic in your hint system, you may want to take a look at it.

Over all it's a neat little level, and I can see why it would be "better" with multiplayer.

Keep creating, I'm excited to see where you go.

Well thx for further feedback, i have no problem to update this level abit further.. seems like i gotta do something about the camera. Well i try to insert a flat 2D view somehow... but i allready work on 2 other levels haha...


Hehe, can't believe you actually didn't place a score board..

Ofc i did lol (even 2), just not so that u get to it if u die.


Well, I certainly would have noticed the 'secret' bonus level, I doubt many would notice that, perhaps give a hint when you finish? Or a hint in game?

There is a big hint at the end... on the scoreboard, but well its a secret level... i made it pretty obvious that there is something lol... if u beat level 4, it says The End? I put some comment on the level, saying there is a lost level and i made a screenshot of it, i uploaded.. and if u beat the secret level perfectly u get a 1337 score ^^ and there stands "kill the bunny" on the scoreboard + the block u can reartouch is slightly darker isnt that enough lol?


I was going to give some of your other levels a go last night, but when I saw things like 'shark attaxk' and the likes, I was kinda put off hahah. I was then wondering if you were just a spammer but after all your feed back you've given me in messages I realised that I certainly miss-judged you there!

Well sir, i can assure u that im no spammer and i dont care anymore too much about plays, the quality of the level got priority and to contribute something interesting to the community... but as i said i started creating with lbpv, so i had to start with anything... and i made some simple platformers + some level ideas i saw on lbp + lbp 2... i just tried myself out with some general ideas, just to get started somehow, since i hadnt much ideas back than and not much of a clue how to realize them. The Shark Survival u saw, is mainly a parody of all the cheap shark survival levels floating around, especially in the beginning of lbpv, but now it tends to kill justin bieber level haha.. atleast its somehow original since u control the shark and hunt for sackbots... i know its stupid, and i dont care anymore about it, im kinda ashamed of many old levels, but in the same time, some kids enjoy them, and they got like 2k plays or something... lol.. yeah maybe i ban them on the backside of my planet haha. They are silly levels for trying myself out. I only got like 6 Levels im kinda proud of... they are all bunched together.


Keep up the good work mate, it's all a very slow learning curve with lbp..

Well thx, but i think its a very fast learning curve in lbp ^^ i improved so much since i started, i mean im still not very good, but i get the hang of it... i have a ton of ideas in my had i know how to realize in theory... im able to do more sophisticated levels, and with this level i learned to have patience while creating.


Yeah ! I finally did it ! This "Lost Level" is a very great idea !

Well thx, its a simple platforming part lol, but hey, its a secret, i just had problems with the lava... there was some splash and bubble effects but i really dont know why they didnt show up... they work perfectly when i am in create mode but not in the play mode... or lets say, in create-play mode they work too... lol.. and theres no music there because the lava that sprinkles has this ugly water sound, which cant be put off... so i just put off all the soundeffects and only added music.


I did not beat all four levels. But still saw the "Kill the Bunny" hint after the end of the level.

I guess thats totally ok... i want that people find it...

The thing is... theres even another secret passage haha ^^ nobody will find it! But i showed it to friends

If i update this thing... im gonna post it here... thx for your feedback and suggestions...

Great level! Addictive, fun, and a **** ton of bubbles what more could a player want. Well, ok if I could ask for something it would be more randomness. But other than that, perfection!2013-01-21 17:53:00
