It's a disaster!  Dimension VVVVVV has been infected by a dimension virus that causes everything to turn sticky!!! :victoria:

Okay, okay, jokes aside, I decided to recreate Dimension VVVVVV entirely in sticky notes.  Yes.  Sticky notes.

This image I understand may be difficult to see, but that is every single room in the main game, minus the Tower.  Here are the areas:

If you would like to see a room or group of rooms more closely, please ask.  And I'm sorry if these are still too hard to see.  I tried as best as I can to make the images as clear as possible.  Also, please don't mind the clutter in the background.  Thank you! :viridian:

wow, cool!  ;)

Thanks! :viridian:

I kinda like it.

I'll take it! :viridian:

This is ridiculous and I'm honestly impressed

Yes, it is absolutely ridiculous *tired looking emoji*
I don't know what compelled me to do this, but here we are.  And let's just say I never what to see a sticky note again in my life! :D :'(

OMC DIS IS SO BOOTUFUL! :viridian: :viridian: :viridian: :viridian: :viridian:


Honestly, I am impressed. You did a very hard pointless work. Thank you.

are you sure the sticky notes were sticky

Keyword: pointless.  I just realized that the two things I created relating to VVVVVV are both pointless.  Hmm.  BUT A LEAS IZ BOOTIFULnever even try to do what I did honestly it's not worth it
Thanks!  :P
By the way...care to explain what OMC stands for? :)

Nope.  They weren't.  What I didn't realize before I started is the adhesive on those things come off very easily.  So I had to spend a couple hours trying to tape the darn things down on the paper!  I tried okay :D

oh wow, that's impressive!

That must have taken an insane amount of time, especially because you had to draw each screen on those tiny sticky notes

Thank you!  This whole thing took about six months, and I worked on it every day with a few vacation days.  Time each night ranged from a half hour to three hours, depending on the complexity of the six rooms I did each night.  And, they do look small, but they were three by three inch notes, so they weren't too bad.  That was the least of my problems! :viridian: :P

This is really great! Can I see the elephant?

Here it is!

the fuck

It's obvious that Terry was complimenting him. ??? I wish he was online, though.

If its obvious you don't need to point it out.

Alright, alright, calm down you two.  Yeah, that was really sweet of him, I was so excited! :viridian:

Maybe you can make a sticky map of my VVVVVV level, Dimension Anomaly! :D

nobody wants to do that

Oh I almost forgot!  I might be opening requests for other levels to be made like this!  If anyone wants to anyway.  Just not immediately.  This was exhausting haha.

How about the secret lab?

Sorry for the less than high quality of these pictures haha

What about the tower?

The Tower I didn't do because the placement of the start and finish rooms of the Tower don't line up with the interior of the Tower.  There was no sensical way to create the Tower and have all the rooms line up.

Have it actually come out of the page.

So should I just do it on an entirely separate sheet of paper?

QuoteHave it actually come out of the page.

That would take so long, though!

Not necessarily, depending on what Qwertyman means by that statement

I thought he meant like a 3D model of it

That would be really hard yeah :P

I mean you make a band for the tower, and place it so the entrances and exits match.

How about you make the tower a Möbius strip?

I'd make it an arch.

So here's what I'm talking about.  If I were to put it at the start and finish, it would either be 3 rooms long or wrap around over other rooms.  I made a high quality diagram to show you:

Everyone seems to have their own ideas of how to do it, so should there be a poll or something?  Or I guess I could just do whatever lol

I mean it is YOUR project, you can take suggestions with a grain of salt of you really want

My idea was to wrap it.

Well...

That's a WRAP everybody

*poorly executed rimshot*

My idea is to make it a Möbius strip , the parts that are there twice are on the other same side , there's no intersection and it gets done.

I'll think about it give me like a month

Or you could split the 3 overlapping rooms into 2 , each of the parts having one of the rooms that overlaps.
