Pixelpest i a quite rude person, his critics are means, rudes and sometime even provocating! Personally I didn't see anything bad to your level.

Mario land ennemies would probably be cool too!

I don't see anything "rude" about him, he's just being PixelPest, just like everybody else is being themselves. Besides, judges give a little tough love sometimes because you wouldn't know whats wrong with your levels otherwise.

I mean, he is rude because his critics are alway negative, and he used of irony to describe my world map, naaah cuz a constructive or even ``normal`` critics aren't anough for pixelpest, he alway needs to CONTINUE, alway alway and alway needs to denigrate the project of the person. He alway says that its to help, but well, I guess to help, you should be CONSTRUCTIVE, not saying like ``uuuh lol look like shit uhuhuh``.

Also I think ``it look like smb3 shit`` is rude, EXTREMELY rude.

His critics aren't "always" negative. You should see some of the other projects he has judged. But, yeah, that doesn't make him automatically rude because he strongly dislikes your project.

The problem is that he ``dislike`` other people work, he totaly denigrate them! I mean, yes you can critic, yes you can dislike, but you can't insult, denigrate or say like ``uh, it look like shit, uhuhu``. Maybe you enjoy his critics, but I dont.

Could we please get on-topic now? I really don't want this thread to turn into a warzone!

WHAT??? New level by Snessy to come soon!!

I'd like some feedback on this one. I'm thinking of adding some moar NPCs, what do you think?

Edit: Also, credit to crazydev for the radical tileset, he's an awesome spriter, and you should definetly check out his supa cool gfx pack! Also, I plan on using some clouds from Sednaiur's SMB3 expanded gfx pack, but since they have a different color, I'm not really sure if it fits, so I want your opinion of it:



Does it fit?

Extended screen of the first section: Feedback would be much appreciated.

I'm thinking of giving the level some gimmick of sorts to make it stand out, but I don't really know what it should be. Any suggestions?

first off you should have come with a gimmick before starting the level. that screenshot is really basic.
anyway there are lots of things you can do with a sky + castle level: platform + lines + castle enemies; random blocks that move + castle enemies; focus on a certain enemy that is usually used on skies or castles; put floating water for no fucking reason. really, i don't see how couldn't you come up with gimmick.

Yeah, you're kinda right about the whole gimmick thing. Also, I think the reason I made the screen so basic is because I had a sort of "Level-design block" at the time of designing it where I couldn't really get any ideas for unique level design, so I just made a straight path with some sizables and put bunch of goombas and koopa troopas and called it a day. I'll probably rework some of the screens to be less basic and have more enemy variation as well as things like pipes. The thing is that I don't really know what enemies would really fit the level (Most of you are probably gonna say lakitu, but I don't think that would fit the level very well) so any suggestions would be very appreciated!

Bumping this as I really want comments on the screen and what enemies would fit it. I might also end up scrapping the level entirely due to it being very basic and me kinda not having that much motivation to work on it.

Well, you could uses Kirby or doki doki panic (smb2) ennemies.

It could use a Lakitu or two, or a Venus Fire Trap. Right now it looks a bit empty with only Paragoombas and Paratroopas.

I don't think Lakitu's would really fit the level. Also, I have plans of adding pipes, but I'll probably have to redesign a lot of the area.

Let me think... custom graphics of SML sky creatures? I hope I answer and think correctly. I will die if I answer incorrectly
