ElTipsta's Publically Released Level Pack

finally updating this thread:

2021 RELEASES:

Snowball Valley:

Spoiler: show

Hi all,

This is my first level in SMBX 2.0 Beta 4 after 3+ years of not using SMBX. I'm hoping I can start getting back into it again so I made this snow themed athletics level using some of the new features added to SMBX 2.0. I love this expanded editor!



(I am aware there's an issue with the background but I'm unsure how to fix it. I've tried the best I can.)

Blizzard Peaks:

Spoiler: show

Level I showed off on discord earlier this year, themed around getting through a blizzard area with winds that blow you around periodically (alternating from left to right). After fixing an issue with lag due to the combination of the lua mechanics after forgetting for months, it's ready to release. It has 3 star coins and a secret SMW collectible star.

2021 CONTEST LEVELS:
A Sizable Walk (Vanilla Contest 2021)

Spoiler: show

Didn't do particularly well, in part because I accidentally deleted the two sizables required to access the secret star, which is fixed in this version. Also i changed the background so its no longer 100% vanilla, but I don't care as its fits better.

Chomp Chomp Mountain (Chocolate Contest X2 entry)

Spoiler: show

Otherwise known as "how the fuck did I get 7th place in this contest with such a simple level in comparison to most of the top 15?" Also Falcom music is amazing and I'm glad other people have been using it in SMBX in between since i left and returned to the forums.

As an aside, I'm hoping to expand this post by adding some of my older levels to it (assuming I can redownload them from somewhere as I foolishly deleted SMBX a while ago). Please look forward to it!

Thanks!

Oh hello there!
Nice to see you come back!

[Shinbison-Kof]

Hey, it's nice to see you again! (:
Fun level, I like the platform+snowball setup. Also, nice aesthetic!

[Walder]

Welcome back! This is a neat level, I dig the aesthetic... but I feel it's a bit rough around the edges. A bunch of setups involving piranha plants or snowball throwing enemies feel like they are supposed to inflict a sense of challenge, instead of actually being a challenge. Take the first platform ride upwards for example, it can be passed while barely moving at all the whole time. Also a number of piranha plants while riding the platforms simply won't harm you unless you intentionally jump, which kind of makes these feel like a waiting game. And man, I was sad to see the spinning platforms confined to that one section, and the fact that the flurries didn't receive that much love throughout the level! I feel those elements could spice up the gameplay nicely, perhaps some nice setups where they interact with other elements like the snowballs and platforms. But I still enjoyed your level, and some setups like the final platform ride was pretty clever. I'd like to see what you come up with in the future!

Spoiler: show

Also this is more of a general complaint about SMBX, but god...I absolutely despise slippery blocks in SMBX. The physics of SMBX are weird enough as is, and slippery blocks just make it even worse.

i'm updating this level thread today. adding a new level, Blizzard Peaks.

edit: added A Sizable Walk and Chomp Chomp Mountain

Brilliant use of what I made or ripped some years ago.
