Boss Mix 1

Archive: 3 posts


At one point not long ago, I had uploaded a full sequence of levels making up an entire game. Superhero City, Darklight Forest, Biohazard Beach, Penguinopolis, Fireball Island, and Sinister Sanctum. Across the board they collectively only got 20 plays, mostly by me testing them, which was a little discouraging, since I had spent a month making each level at least. I figured they probably just weren't all that good, so I took all of them down to start a new set of levels beginning with Hero Academy.

Anyway, the last level of that First Set, Sinister Sanctum, has been re-purposed as Boss Mix 1. It's not fancy platforming or clever cutscenes, just you against five giant monsters which were previously the bosses of the first game; Deadly Nightshade, Spider King Rachnai, Mutant Kaiju Angleron, Lord Rockhopper & the Penguinator-3000, and Tiki Deity Big Kahuna. I was somehow able to squeeze all five fights into one level. I've played it with my roommate, and it's pretty fun with friends.

Mind, the worst problem is the bosses are often quite large in size, so it's sometimes hard to see your sackperson. This is particularly evident with Deadly Nightshade. That and, the level was originally made to succeed a sequence of levels that did their best to tell you exactly how to beat each boss. It doesn't get much more complex than throw object A at face B, and an effort was made to emphasize that if you have bounce pads, you will probably need to bounce up to something. If anyone considers it necessary to add magic mouths or Info-Pods explaining how to beath each one, I'll oblige.

Either way, give it a try, and feel free to review. Maybe not from an 'interesting level' standpoint, since I am aware it doesn't hold up in that regard, but rather by the Bosses so I can make future ones more epic and fun.

Thanks! I hope you'll enjoy them. The first set are a little boring and unfair to me. Anyway, they were good practice. Now I have to better. Bosses are my favorite things to make, so you know I'm going to have to REALLY beat myself up to make extra amazing ones in all my future levels.2013-04-25 16:47:00
