The wooden beams look pretty solid. Maybe it would be best to darken them a little to indicate that they are part of the background scenery?Tsutsumi-Chan wrote:
I would recommend you made the beginning part a little less flat, like making it a little longer or giving it slopes or something. Other than that, this looks promising, and I like the mix of enemies!Tsutsumi-Chan wrote:

I meant the beginning part before the red koopa, not the entire level.Tsutsumi-Chan wrote:How is this level flat?

The blue line is "flat". Now look at the red line, that is everything but flat.
But that's like, only a small part, how is this even supposed to bother anyone?Snessy the duck wrote:I meant the beginning part before the red koopa, not the entire level.Tsutsumi-Chan wrote:How is this level flat?

Even if it doesn't bother anyone, I'd recommend you change it since it looks pretty ugly.Tsutsumi-Chan wrote:But that's like, only a small part, how is this even supposed to bother anyone?Snessy the duck wrote:I meant the beginning part before the red koopa, not the entire level.Tsutsumi-Chan wrote:

Whoops, guess I'm terrible at wording then.Enjl wrote:"I recommend you fix this problem which I just admitted doesn't exist."
I don't get this.Trace42 wrote:seriously though, even if you point out bad things that arent bad in a level doesnt make you better.

But how the fuck would it bother anybody, and how would one single slope fix it?! It's way better to have a level start out flat gameplay wise, so why fuck the gameplay entirely to make it look a tiny little bit less bland?!Snessy the duck wrote:I was just pointing out that it looked a little bland to me, and it could easily be fixed by adding a slope or something. It might bother someone who just started playing the level, so I would recommend you changed it.
It just sounded kinda confusing from my standpoint.Trace42 wrote:"What? I'm NOT the best level designer? I don't get it."Snessy the duck wrote:I don't get this.Trace42 wrote:seriously though, even if you point out bad things that arent bad in a level doesnt make you better.
I still do think that the beginning part could be improved. I would actually recommend making the distance from the questionmark blocks to the spawn a little longer, because it feels a bit cramped imo.Trace42 wrote:But how the fuck would it bother anybody, and how would one single slope fix it?!

it's literally 5 seconds of gameplay. why are you complaining about something that will be on screen for just 5 seconds? why don't you talk about the design of the level instead?Snessy the duck wrote: I still do think that the beginning part could be improved.

That looks very neat! Do the concrete blocks do anything special aside from being there?Enjl wrote:
