Beautiful level, I enjoyed it a lot. Pretty hard (overly hard in some places), but since I'm decent at this game I was able to manage. My main issues with this level are:

- The room "Latency Variation" is extremely confusing and Balneor had to show me how to do it before I was able to beat it.
- I don't think you should disable the map in the maze to the Warp Zone. I'm glad there are no warp lines, but still.
- The "20 warps trial" trinket is way too long, and some sections of it are also hard.
- The delicate flower quest at the end might be a little bit too frustrating for some people's tastes.
- Multiple rooms could use difficulty rebalancing, particularly in Space Station 2 (though Warp Zone also has some that are too hard). Most of this can be fixed with addition of checkpoints.
Once these are fixed, I think this level would be ready to be featured on discord, great stuff.

Also, you made this in 2 months? That's really impressive. I have 2 level projects that have been in development since 2018 and aren't yet ready to be released in 2021 - the 20x20 one should be about 3/4ths done and the 14x14 one I have brought back to life recently should be about half done. Though to be fair there were some big several month breaks caused by burnout and lack of gameplay ideas.

It took blood, sweat and tears, but I have finally prevailed. I have beaten Nova.

Huge thanks to Balneor, who guided me on my playthrough and helped me progress past a specific room in Zone 3 that I found probably the hardest out of the entire level.

Or, I could have fun with this, deliberately waste their time, "troll the hacker", so to speak...

Ah yes, the James Veitch approach

uh oh



this occurs if you press escape on the 'options' screen

I'd support no custom assets for this one. Maybe no internal scripting as well

[NOPE IT DOES LITERALLY NOTHING WOOO]

A couple notes on the LIES entities:

As noted before, movement SPEED (the fifth argument) affects what type the LIES are. Movement TYPE (the fourth argument) seems to do nothing.

Speed 0 summons a spawner that functions as in the main game, spouting out LIES to the right (same way as entity movement type 4, it will move right until it goes offscreen and if it hits a wall, it stops) at regular intervals at what looks to be speed 6 (slightly faster than Viridian).

Speed 1 summons a single LIES entity at the coordinates given, which functions as one made by the spawner. It does NOT make multiple "LIES" without a spawner i.e. "Chinese Rooms"/"Spikes Do!" in the main game, I think you need an offscreen spawner for that.

Speed 2 makes a projector that I *think* removes LIES touching it but is otherwise unmoving NOPE IT DOES LITERALLY NOTHING WOOO.

The projector does actually do something, it kills the player on touch
In addition to that, in (18,11) (Chipper Cipher in the main game) LIES disappear when they reach x position ~264, so the place where the projector sits at in the main game.
Exactly the same thing happens with The Solution Is Dilution clouds, they have fixed speed (its -5 i think) and direction (13), 4th argument will do nothing and 5th argument controls variant (0 for spawner, 1 for cloud, 2 for top) Each of these functions exactly like LIES do, and in (14,9) (Level Complete! in the main game) clouds will disappear after they reach y position ~56.
An invalid speed number in these rooms, so anything else than 0, 1 or 2, will create the normal purple box enemy that will move with the given direction and given speed.

I found a bug in Ved v1.6.1.

You can set the platform speed above 8 now, which allows the platforms to go through solid blocks and exit the bounds. This is more of a bug in the game, but could you limit the speed to 8 maybe?

Huh? I set platform speed to 10 and it worked normally.
Possibly a cause of this might be room warping enabled, I tested with createentity custom level enemies (entity 56) and in a warping room, speed above 8 does indeed cause them to behave incorrectly i.e. they bounced off the edges rather than warp through the screen. I fixed that by changing movement type to 13 (goes down until collision)

Capitalize the first letters of *scripts*? Uh, what game are you playing?

of course i mean to capitalize the first letter of sentences said in cutscenes

I liked your first level better. Please, for the love of god, PLEASE capitalize the first letters of roomnames and scripts!!! It got much better in the second half, I especially enjoyed the Shock Zone (although its been done before) and the second Maze. But the first zone with the space station tileset, it is so incredibly low effort...

i have my own server but never had the courage to post that here
i thought id get banned for advertising
rip
i guess kiwi alexia will do it better though xd
if anyone still wants to join for some reason message me

gotta blast

congratulations for blastrvirdian's catchphrase

Congratulations for making a useless bump

excuse me but wtf is the content of the file nPOW11 posted
it's an XML file called 1234567890_1_

It's just a normal .vvvvvv File but with the ending .xml instead.
The Content of the file is exactly the same, just change its ending, worked for me.
Otherwise, no Idea why someone would upload a level in that form.

Oh okay, it worked. Thanks.

Well, that's true
At least he won't steal levels and "improve" them
I mean, I hope he won't

Piercing The Sky is my favourite, though I like Paced Energy and Predestined Fate Remix a lot too.
