This is a very pretty level and I like the openness of it but it has a number of gameplay problems.
What I like about it is that there are a bunch of ways to get through it (with a lot of secret areas), there’s good support for difficulty levels, and it’s just large enoguh to work as a stand-alone level.
Two things detract from the level. First of all, the tileset usage, while looking cool, tends to be a little confusing at times. This level has a habit of using masked tiles (ie stuff that belongs in layer 4) in the background, which means you don’t always know what’s solid and what isn’t. A little bit of this sort of thing can be ok, but it is excessive in some places here.
My second problem is that the level is just a bit too frustrating. I beat it without cheating, but the death pits got me a few times, and the lack of checkpoints makes them very annoying. In the end, I wound up just rushing through the level instead of exploring it, since I felt like I had wasted enough time already. There are also parts where enemies are nearly unavoidable (the level is especially guilty of this in the moving platform sections). They probably should have been put on hard mode or just removed.
8 is lower than anyone else has given this, but I think it is fair, considering the problems I mentioned. If I were to rate this on eyecandy alone it would get a 10. Music is also good (07-Magic Mushrooms-ZAiK_iNT.mp3).
I’m sorry I was small then I didn’t know about layers! Hahahahahahahaha :D
It’s fine enough.
‘‘Words can’t describe’‘ how much I lol’d at jamster’s comment.
Boring Game :(
[Then why rate it a 10? Rating clearance for intention/action mismatch.]
words cannot describe how amazing this level is, there are plenty of fun tactics to use and awesome game play. The eyecandy is also beyond this world.
(Rating (10) clearance due to sarcasm. ~Violet)
Cool
[Self rating (10.0) clearance, you receive a warning for this. ~cooba]
Boring :(
1% big
It`s very small
Making a better level
[Review changed to quick review ~cooba]
I’m really not sure why is this not getting attention, because these are pretty solid and original Ground Force levels.
A very nicely draw tileset. Here’s hoping it gets used in the near future. The colors are very nice too.
Everything is impressive. :)
