This is a level I've worked on for quite a while. For those DKC fans out there, there's a chance you might see where my idea for this level came from (and the music too). This is meant to be a pretty difficult level, but if it seems to be too difficult let me know. I hope you all will like this level, and I hope to get some feedback.

HERE'S AN UPDATED VERSION:

I'm now using this for a different episode, and I tried to make it easier and more enjoyable.

Review of 7-9 by TTK

This is a decent autoscroll level. It has one long section and no midpoint, so it's pretty challanging, at least you gave some power-ups. With some nice graphics, I think the design is very empty, because there's no BGOs in here whatsoever. Also there's lots of cutoffs with bullet bill block placement, so you need to look at it. There is nothing much to say for this one, because it's just climbing up there to finish tha level. Overall, pretty decent.

4.5/10

Am I good to resend it on here edited, so I can get a new score for it? I'm hoping to at least get the level to be pretty good.

I am actually quite interested in this concept of making a whole level just Climbing a rope...

I am gonna use this too
Thnx for the idea dude

Yeah no problem! I still have a couple levels I plan on making with this concept too. XD hahaha

Hopefully I get a re-review. Already sent a newer version.

Reminds me a lot of DKC3's Kong-fused Cliffs

Exactly where my inspiration came from. XD hahaha
I just wasn't able to make the graphics for the fused rope at the bottom.

Rope Climb Rumble review

Design & Gameplay: 4.5/10 (counts 70%)
This level was really unique and not too repetitive.
The fun factor is p. average in this level. It's satisfying to beat but until the player can't complete the level, he/she can get frustrated very easily. (gonna talk about it later) The NPC placement is sometimes p. acceptable but sometimes it's too mean.
The level doesn't have coins at all. (true it would've been hard to collect them anyway) And because of the medium fun factor, there is no replay value either. But the biggest complaint about the level is the difficulty: the level is really hard and I had to switch to Luigi because I had to take shortcuts as I felt it, because I thought it's better to have some little shortcuts. A checkpoint also could've been good.

Atmosphere & Visuals: 6/10 (counts 30%)
This level had a decently good atmosphere. (not great but still good) The music was fitting very well and I didn't find big cutoffs or clashy stuff.
The grey hammer brothers were a bit out of place.
However, the level was really bland and empty because it lacked of sceneries too much.

Score: 5/10
A decent level with frustrating difficulty. (not uber frustrating kaizo)
Moved to 'Average'

Finally updated this level. Hopefully things look much nicer with the addition of better scenery, removal of the stone bros, and addition of coins. I still couldn't get a checkpoint working on this sadly.

Hope you guys will like it.
