Summer Died In Connorsville (http://lbp.me/v/mkwdc3)

I finally finished this level! Found it on the moon & decided to finish it.


Connersville has passed it's first and only rule; No summer! Everybody left the beach, now it's long forgotten. This has just become Sackboy's new playground. Not much gameplay just mostly scenery.

Explore above & under the water!

Climb various places to discover something new!

Eventually you'll encounter a rocket-ish spaceship. Avoid object with red tags.

I often find myself entertained more by scenery and atmosphere than gameplay, so this is perfect! I'll return with feedback; Consider it Queued!!! 2013-07-15 19:11:00

I thought you had a nice level here, but my only concern is that a lack of good gameplay will cost you! I had problems understanding the entire plot of the level and felt that at times the level was jumbled with contradicting themes! Anyways, here are my Yays and Nays

Yays:
-My favorite part if the moon that follows your sackboy throughout the level
-You had a good combination between the music and level theme
- I thought your barrels and trees added more to the levels theme as did the houses and such

Nays:
-At times I questioned why there were certain objects in the level, like the bunnies
-I felt that knowing where to go was a problem
-The ship races at the end felt rushed and messy
-More decoration for certain parts was needed

Score:
6/10

I truly felt that this level would have been better as a scenery-strict level rather than trying to incorporate race and gameplay throughout! You have a proper presentation with the theme, but you need to develop how to incorporate other parts to it that can add to the level instead of taking away from it!

Hi DawnBreaker,

I totally have to agree with Bryan_Zuckerberg! The level has some potential but to me it seems to be underachieved! The scenery is nice but the gameplay has its weak points! I had my problems to decide which direction to go, when the water-level was lowered, I seemed to be captured on the ground though having the feeling that I should get high again to find the right way!^^ This was frustrating to me!^^ Maybe that I've only missed any switch!^^ Maybe you should edit your level once more and afterwards have an intense beta-testing!^^

Many greetings, Jürgen^^

Wow, what a great atmospheric level!
I love the visuals and the music and had a lot of fun with the gameplay.
Really fantastic job on this.
I have to admit, I don't like the rocket fly: I tried it douzend of times but I wasn't able to master this passage, which made me a little bit sad, because I definitely wanted to reach the scoreboard.

So in my opinion: excellent level except of the rocket fly

Thanks. I only added that part because the level lacked gameplay. I'll probably delete that part & add something else or I can just make something much better. Again, thanks Bryan, Curious, & Avundcv.

I think you should countinue to try, but do a different level instead of updating your old one. The level was good but I would completely agree with Zuckerberg 100%. You should figure out a whole new fresh idea and then start to spend time on that instead of worrying about your past levels. Thats just my opinion because I belive after every single level you publish, you continuesly get better. 2013-07-24 21:48:00
