Well, I decided to rate this because Skele asked me for that…
Gameplay
I don’t like playing at this level. Imo there are too many sucker tubes. In pos 131,16 there are some toasters, but i think that it would be better to put them somewhere in the level(the same is with gun8 ammo at pos 2,62). I don’t think that many people will run into there only to get toasters. Imo there are too much ammo. Flag placement is ok, you putted warps from the bases. Float ups are in places, where they are not needed. Sometimes you use one ways in stupid places, and you don’t place them when they can be really helpful and useful.
Eyecandy
I don’t like it. Layer 8 is fine, textured background etc, that’s hard to do sth bad in there. At layer 7 you putted “lightings”, I mean, I see that something is only shining for a while, but I don’t see the real lightings. Layer 6… Well, there are some towers here. Everything is ok, but at top of those towers some tiles are mirrored. Its looking bad. At the real level(I mean layer4) some tiles are mirrored too.
There are many bugs at eyecandy. For example, area 131,16(again). You used shadowed tiles here, but only here. Over those tiles i can see some pixels of background. Pos 0,7, I can see a strange hole here. There’s a lot of bugs like this. Layer2 is a rain, it’s ok, I can only say that I don’t like when rain is falling slowly when Im going up etc. but that’s not a big bug. Layer1 is a “mountains”(or w/e u want to call this) at the bottom of the level. Everything is ok with that.
Pickups
Pus which are easiest to get is seek pu and rf pu… That’s strange. Its harder to get toaster and bouce pu, shouldn’t that be that the hardest pu to get is rfs and seeks? As I said in gameplay, sometimes ammo placement is just stupid, sometimes in some places there are too many ammo. There’s only one place when I can find fastfires and its really close to red base.
Overall
First I was going to rate this 7.0, but i changed my mind. This level isn’t that good, but Skele, try to make more levels and maybe you will be better at this.
Edit: Changed my mind, I will rate it 7, but next time try to don’t make that many bugs at eyecandy.
