Hey guys, I'm in an internetcafe in France at the moment, so I'll reply to your comments here and as soon as I get home I'll fix any bugs that are mentioned  :viridian:

The level was pretty fun, however I had a weird glitch that when I fell in a hole (chapter 3 - 2nd checkpoint), it took me to the end of the game.  Weird. Anyways, great job!

I'm still on vacation at the moment so I can't look at it now, and but as soon as I'm home I'll try to fix the problem!

I tried to recreate the problem and it only happens when you pass through the lower right corner. This is because the hole you enter is bigger than the hole you are 'teleported' to. This causes you to get stuck in the wall, and after that magically slide through the wall, thus ending up in the room above it, which is in this case the end.

Here you'll find an UNOFFICIAL release by me with the problem fixed:

Thanks! As soon as I'm home I'll make an official bugfix :)

That was a weird ending.  :o

Nice scripting though!  And this whole thing was fun!

Hehe I'm sorry, I had a lot of ideas (and I changed it a lot of times too) but I thought a plottwist would be nice ^^
And thanks, the scripting was really a lot of work so I'm glad you enjoyed it! ;)

You should! And tell me what you think afterwards  :)

Quote from: TheoX on July 30, 2011, 09:12:00 PMdammit.  I actually need to shift all 8 screens I made over about two spots, because their connection overlaps the edge of the map, so if I expand or shrink the map in ANY direction it'll cut into/spread apart my rooms.  Blast.
Me too, I had to change the walk-in cave in Rescue on Polaris to a portal into the facility.  :(

That sucks.  I actually (for some reason) bothered to remake all my rooms.  I wonder if a move (or "shift) room option is forseeable in the future.

I had the same problem, it would be great to have some kind of grid feature where you can see all the rooms and that you can move them from there (:

The first person to find all trinkets is totally awesome!
The first time I played it I had 5 of the six trinkets, now I played it a second time, and here is the evidence:

-feels awesome-
So, what's the reward?  ;D

edit:
I forgot to add a rating.

Great level, it wasn't very unique (just hard), but fun to play!

Originality - ★★★☆☆  - Not very original, just really hard levels.
Room names - ★★★★☆ - I really liked them, they sometimes made me chuckle a bit. (or rage. Falling is fun?  >:( )
Difficulty - ★★★★★  - Especially falling part and the last two rooms were brutal.
Design - ★★★★☆ - Everything looked nice and polished :)

Hardest room - In my opnion the last one, Finalia.
Most fun room - Chuck Norris ofcourse ;) (or the one with the sixth trinket  ::))


Final score: ★★★★☆
Really enjoyed playing it, and I even played it a second time to get every trinket!  ;D

The bounding boxes for platforms/enemies aren't exact, and when you put them against walls, the enemy hits the wall before the edge of the box. Here, since one hits the edge and one doesn't, get bounce at different times. When I finally got over there, they were misaligned and I had no way of getting through, so I had to wait.
I removed the little wall there, so it should be alright now!
By the way, did you enjoy playing it?  :)
Yeah, it was fun, and the whole story thing is a new spin. The chapter select screen is also a neat idea, I liked that.
Thanks a lot, I'm planning on making my next level after the holiday (I'm going to France tomorrow, and I'll be back 19th of August) :)

Just played it and I loved it!
The art in the background was amazing, and I loved the fact that I didn't have to try everything 10 times before I beat it ^^
Also really liked the creeper  :P luckily he didn't blow the piramid up ;)
Thanks a lot for this awesome level!

Enjoyment: 10/10
Aesthetics: 6/10
Novelty: 10/10
Difficulty: 5/10
Room Names: N/A

This is great!!  A charming little story, and good gameplay to boot; kinda challenging at some parts, but nothing too tough.  The cutscenes are extremely amusing, and I liked the part where you removed the spikes after getting the trinket.  Found one RAE (Room Alignment Error) in the Mario chapter, attached.  You can bounce far enough down to go in the walls.

Status: Finished the version with 3 chapters.

Thanks a lot! I really put a lot of work into this, and it's great to see that it's appreciated :)
I'll try and fix the Error as soon as possible!

EDIT: It should be fixed right now :)

Completed chapter 4!  Your story is becoming very intriguing.  This one was harder, I think a couple more save points would be nice, at least in the beginning of every room (this is not the case in only one or two rooms).

EDIT: Terry should totally feature this when it's done.

Thanks again, I thought I had placed a save point in every room, but I'll take another look and maybe add some new ones. I'll get chapter 5 done today! ;D

EDIT: You were right, I forgot one save point ^^ I've just added it and updated the download link ;)

Some weird thing happened in chapter 1 for me where the gravity lines just disappeared without me getting the trinket. I ended up getting it anyways, but you might wanna look into that.

I thought I had fixed that already... but I'll take another look and see if I can reconstruct the bug!

Ok. Overall nice level. I got to the bit with the girl but gave up as that dissolve bit was hard lol. Speaking of hard i'm making Kaizo Viridian!
You only have to jump once there, and wait for the right moment. If you know how to do it it's really easy!
Thanks a lot for all the comments, and I'm gonna try your level as soon as it's finished! :)

I ran into another glitch after saving Mario. I went back down into the room he was in and some text got frozen on the screen and pressing action does nothing. No ideas how to solve this one :/. I will start from chapter 2 although so hopefully it will be ok.
I didn't have any problems here testing, but I changed some things that should solve it, still I don't really know why it happened, so I'm not sure if it works...
Thanks for reporting! :)
