Hey Guyz, Hey Gurlz Just wanted to showcase a new project to you I'm working on right now. First I wasn't sure what kind of level it will become in the end when I designed two roman soldiers, a spear man and one with short sword. I reworked the basics of the fighting mechanics of the Soul's game series; Means: I gave 'em two different attack strikes and a shield to block enemy attacks for the price of stamina. I kept on rebuilding some typical Soul's enemies: Some easy kind of zombies, some of them got crossbows, and one harder enemy called a 'Dark Knight' (picture 2) I really liked the gameplay mechanics, so I built some bigger guys to fight against - I decided to add at least 3 epic Boss fights, two of them are finished by now (picture 3+4), a third one will follow these days. Also the Design on the screenshots is not final; hopefully there will be enough space for more decorations. Well, here the promised screenshots: http://id.lbp.me/img/ft/84d10fe1e5bc4a34b7ac7216a9783c56c643498d.jpg http://i7.lbp.me/img/ft/2d78dc1e0ab65909e4c9c3995480f753096e4fc9.jpg http://i0.lbp.me/img/ft/3f0261d08fdde8c84b1e70b24b3c1fab46a0a21a.jpg http://i6.lbp.me/img/ft/0d6d2cfa52dd465e4d28268039521283d9945f34.jpg #pictures updated 26/08/13 #i I'm still searching for some music tracks fitting to the dark atmosphere i try to deliver. If someone got some "dark" giveaway tracks, i wld be glad if you could sent me the link via central or psn (shaggy40000). The music creator will be mentioned in the description of course. thank u guys, shagg

Wow, this is looking rather impressive, this could become a really epic hit!^^ I'm already rather curious and looking forward to play the finished level!^^ Maybe I could compose a music for you though these days I'm more in a sunny friendly mood than in a dark and gloomy mood!^^ I will try to do one and if you like the result then wonderful and if not then also ok!^^ Many greetings, Jürgen^^

This looks very impressive so far, good work man! I will be very interested in reviewing your level over in my Rebl Reviews thread when it is finished. Here is a link: https://lbpcentral.lbp-hub.com/index.php?t=81442-Rebl-Reviews-High-quality-reviews-and-FAST&p=1124044#post1124044 Your description of this level reminds me of a level I reviewed recently by Tynz21 called Dungeon Break. I highly recommend you check it out as it has a lot of relevant material to your creation. Here is a link to it: https://lbpcentral.lbp-hub.com/index.php?t=81425-Dungeon-Break My concerns about this are that the project will come up short in the same areas that levels like Dungeon Break have in the past. That is the graphics and animations will be superb, but the gameplay will be shallow and boil down to a Zurg rush enemy AI where the same tactic works against all the enemies, boss or otherwise. Levels like this in the past have boiled down to backing away and mashing the stab button. I am optimistic about your project, however, because of the variety of enemies you have already displayed. It is my BIGGEST hope that in the finished product of this level you include strategy elements that require different approaches to different enemies. The gameplay is the CORE of a level like this and I hope your level can excel where others have failed. A highly suggested move is that you allow the player to bash an enemy away with your shield. This is something Kalawishis (I hope I spelled that right) has suggested in the past and I highly recommend as well. Hopefully that helps you out, let me know if you want any help with the music. I can design a track for you if I had a little more information about what you wanted it to sound like.

I can design a track for you if I had a little more information about what you wanted it to sound like. I'm happy about every (hopefully positive) review for my level So just do a review if you like to do. The other level you mentioned, ... well, i never heared about it before^^ though i don't want to copy elements, I will check it out. Hope there are not dat much commons to my level But be sure my level will not become a generic dungeon slayer. Like i mentioned, i tried to create a fight system very common to the Soul's series. Even if the fights won't become dat gripping like a real Soul's battle, the stamina-bar that decreses with every action you do and the timing-based ability of blocking enemy strikes will prevent my level to become a button-smasher. Also the difficulty of the boss fights are very high and good timing is necessary to even hit them once :colossus: And i'm not finished yet - I will try to put in some additional strategy with a fourth enemy and the last boss ... well ... i will also think about the shield-bash; i would also like that feature, but i can't promise adding it. maybe j?rgen will create a track for my level, but i still got 2 stages and 2 boss-fights without music, so it would be great if you would also try to compose a track for me; i will add you in PSN, hopefully see you soon ingame! thank you a lot for the interest in my level and the lot of tips and information! ##examples, i searched for some i would love to get tracks like these for my level: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x3WBu8Lxa9Q&list=PL9A3ABDEAD72720E8 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Gx6KtzQJP0&list=PL9B731B698647B049 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wWgjfeVj8rc&list=PL18DBEECFC210572E

Die Bilder sehen richtig toll aus und zu meiner Erleichterung bist du auch vom urspr?nglichen MK-Levelkonzept weggekommen. ^^ Finde aber, dass du dich bei Demon Souls / Dark Souls eher f?r zwei der schlechteren Songs entschieden hast. Aber gut...ist nat?rlich Ansichtssache und in LBP klingt das ganze sowieso wieder etwas anders. Bin gespannt und freu mich drauf.
