the lunatester doesn't work and the PGE tester kills you on the spot so...
i did take the picture from the editor but i had to try my best not to get any spawn points in the shot.

Not much you can say besides that without being redundant. The lack of BGOs make it bland and since I've commented about this issue multiple times relatively recently to him in more detail I thought this was okay.Quill wrote:You know you can be more constructive than that.PixelPest wrote:Looks really bland imo
Also Doesntpostverymuch in many cases screenshots represent the level because most people afaik don't screenshot the worst part of their level but instead a better-looking part that they think will make people want to play it

In the latest screenshot, it doesn't even need BGOs. It looks fine at this, although if you put pipes on the top right, the level could have better design.

And did you even include the content in the screenshot in the project demo, because if not, then that screen is all they have to criticise.Doesntpostverymuch wrote:and to make this worse they're criztiseing the SCREENSHOTS.Quill wrote:You know you can be more constructive than that.PixelPest wrote:Looks really bland imo

all of them
and the screenshot levels are usually in the version that is released most recently

The aggregate of screenshots usually allows to tell something about what you can expect from the levels themselves. The comparison "judging a book by its cover" isn't really accurate.

The world map is broken. You don't spawn anywhere when you start up the episode.

Thank you for playing it so that i could know this fact!Mr Boboo wrote:The world map is broken. You don't spawn anywhere when you start up the episode.
Here is a verison that should work: https://www.mediafire.com/?drxfoj4cxcohrfv (V 1.21)
Of note: i usually make future versions before i upload new versions, which is why this isn't V 1.12

Yes, and now that I've played it, I gotta say my friend: it needs a lot of work.
Most of the levels are bland and lack any substance, and lots of them are way too short. Secrets are hidden in absurd places that nobody would even think to look. And some levels, you can't even progress - either a warp doesn't work (or exist) or there's a block in the way that you can't pass. The world map is also really boring and some of the paths are still too long.
I would advise you to redesign all your levels with care, and to test them thoroughly. Play some of the top SMBX episodes to get inspiration, and make your levels with the thought, "Will other players find this fun?" If you do all that, you can turn this around and make it good.
