HYAKKI YAGYŌ (https://lbp.me/v/qxj8j7p)
Night Parade of One Hundred Demons

On monthly occasion, of auspicious timing, the yōkai of Japan gather together in a grand parade! Normally, this would mean certain death, but Sack-Thing has received a special invitation from Nurarihyon himself to attend the festival!

Hyakki Yagyō is a platformer and my first (probably ONLY) Dynamic Thermometer level. It boasts a total of 72 unique types of yōkai, numbering about 100 in all.

The level takes you through a Japanese inspired landscape, from temples, to forests, to mountains, and even haunted houses and the pits of Jigoku.

There are lots of Fox-Fires to collect, each worth 500 points, and plenty of carefully crafted scenes and yōkai to discover. (Can you spot them all?)

The level also include a fairly easy, but nonetheless impressive, boss fight with an Oni! A metric ton of work has been put into this, and it looks super awesome. So give it a try! THANK YOU!!!

Thank you!!!!

Some news on the Hyakki Yagyo front: I didn't want to make a new topic for this or anything, because it's just a supplement. However, If you want to know more about the youkai featured in the level, there's now a Youkai Collectible gallery available.

http://www.demon-heart.com/lbp/hyakkiyagyogallerylogo.png (https://lbp.me/v/qxm8qqc)

It's literally just all the youkai on little trophy bases. Each one has a button, and pressing it will lower the arm so you can collect the collectibles, while also providing information. Thinking about it now, I might go back, and remove the logic on each arm, and just keep all the collectibles dangling, so getting info and getting the bubble are different functions. At any rate...

That's pretty much it. So if you're curious about what these monsters are, well, now you can find out.

I really enjoyed the heck out of this! Loved all the artwork you've put in. Just beautiful. I did have a problem with the boss fight though. I don't believe the problem was on your end but rather on mine as in my poor playing skills XD. Great level.2015-08-31 15:43:00

Thanks! : D

I was actually thinking about trimming parts of the boss fight. It's quite a long battle right now, and if you end up missing a chance to throw bombs in his mouth, you have to repeat an attack phase. I figure that by getting rid of Phase 3 and Phase 5, and altering phase 4 just a smidge, It will flow better, and be less difficult.

I may not change it immediately, because it took me quite a long time to program his attack patterns, and I'm not ready for that work to have been wasted yet. XD

This happened to me on the first two phases, wasn't that annoying though. I also missed the throwing ones a few times, and thought that this was where a little trim may help out.

Understandably it would be pretty hard to do, and it wasn't that bad... even putting a progress bar to know that you hit halfway or 3/4 would help with this, as it wasn't the re-tryign that was that annoying, its not knowing if you are getting close that is a little off putting.

Regardless; the entire level was amazingly artistic piece of work!

Unfortunately, I didn't play your level when it first came out. BUT OMG is this freakin' amazing! So much pure creativity and detail. This is way beyond anything I could design and probably most of the community. So many unique and interesting characters. At times it was overwhelming because I enjoyed everything so much. Too much awesome on the screen, you know. The boss fight was great. I read comments before I played that it went on for too long. That's a legitimate complaint, but I didn't mind at all. Once again too much awesome. I had to double check that this wasn't team picked already. How could this not be team picked? Anyways, so glad I played this.My only complaint is the music gets a little repetitive. At first the music is great, but it repeats itself a lot. There's probably nothing you can do about that though. I can't leave my post on a negative so AWESOME.2015-12-14 18:39:00
