(could you format it a bit more normally for clarity's sake)

My notes:
- I went and cooked lunch while playing this level
- Then I died right before the checkpoint. WELP. See you in 3 minutes.
- This name is fairly unimaginative too... Not judging but... definitely judging.
- Suddenly the level turns from the easiest level in the world to a stressfest?
- Noticed that the background lines up almost perfectly here... I usually offset closer layers by some y-value and an uneven x-value to prevent that. Or sometimes I mirror them. Looks odd.
- Fuck you (@ending). My mood is sour now.

It had some nice ideas but oh boy did it go from 0 to 100 fast. The first half is an absolute joke if you manage to not die to the admittedly cool penultimate setup, but then the 2nd half just kinda kicks your ass unless you do everything in one go, especially during the up n down zigzag iwannabetheguy corridor. Fairly neat, but I wish it didn't autoscroll.

I'm sorry that level was too long. It could be much shorter, but i had nothing really to do with my free time soo. And i'm so fucking sorry for abrupt change of difficulty, and difficulty curves in my levels overall, it seems like i can't get it under control..
As for background, you could take a look into .ini files:

Spoiler: show

Code: Select all

[background2]
name = "SMW Clouds"
fill-color = "#000000"

[bg1]
name="bg1"
depth=INFINITE
frames=4
priority=-100
img="3.png"
repeatX=true
alignY=BOTTOM
parallaxX=0.48
parallaxY=0

[bg2]
name="bg2"
x=256
y=128
depth=INFINITE
priority=-99
img="2.png"
repeatX=true
alignY=BOTTOM
parallaxX=0.48
parallaxY=1

[bg3]
name="bg3"
y=136
depth=INFINITE
priority=-98
img="1.png"
repeatX=true
alignY=BOTTOM
parallaxX=0.64
parallaxY=1

But yeah, higher y value would be a nice thing to add.

You don't have to apologize for anything other than the earrape.

I'm sorry for earrape, and okay. Thanks for review btw!

[Valentine]

I'm gonna label this level as "WIP" until the obvious issues are sorted out (Namely the earrape because that's not acceptable for the collab, but the design issues such as the difficulty curve should also be sorted out)

I haven't played the level yet but I find there being earrape in the level as reason enough for rejection until an update for it.

[KateBulka]

Level is updated:
-Second part is easier now, i hope.
-No more autoscroll.
-No more earrape.

I'm especially sorry for earrape, i never thought it would be so bad, and that's my mistake, my bad.
