The level seems OKAY...but there's a bit of clashing. There's SMB1, SMB2 and SMB3 enemies in one screenshot.

That's not clash. Clash in when two objects doesn't look good togheter.

Things like SMB1 + SMB2 are just mixing styles, not clash.

You should just get the direct image link, and post it between the [img] tag. Trust me, it makes it a lot easier. Anyways, review coming in a sec.

Edit: I actually don't think this is playable. When I downloaded it, I got a .rar file, when it should be a .lvl file (or in a folder with the level).

First off, try not to use Flickr for photo-hosting, it's not all that prophpbb friendly.
Second, don't stretch your level window in SMBX, it will cause all of your graphics to stretch and be disproportionate.
Third, you can take images by pressing F12 while you are testing the level, try doing that instead.
And finally, I would suggest taking some more screenshots that actually show detail of the level, not what you have here.

Try looking in the .rar, usually levels are put into .zips or .rars to save space.

You mean PhpBB, the software, not ProPhpBB, the host, right? This forum is on BlueHost iirc, not public hosting.

Yeah that's what I mean't. I was in a rush so I typed in prophpbb instead of phpbb for whatever reason, it wasn't running through my mind at that moment on what it was.

There is clash between MB1 and (MB2 & MB3) <- both
since there are no outlines on any of the sprites or blocks, it doesn't look too great with heavily outlined sprites.

Hill-Bit Land

Aesthetics: 4/10

I liked the use of 8-bit graphics in this level, especially the Bowser Jr. gfx. You also put Bulby's music to great use. However there were more than a few flaws I noticed while playing the level. For starters, the grab animation for Mario doesn't exist, in that place there's just a black mask. Then there's the fact that Luigi is still completely 16-bit, ruining the atmosphere when you play in with two players. Then there are lots of effects that are still 16-bit, for example the door animations. I also don't recommend putting Kuribo's shoe in, since it's using a hardcoded graphics that is always the original shoe graphic when the player wears it. The star gfx was also 16-bit, as well as the flowers at the checkpoint and the checkpoint itself. I really advise you to avoid doing this, it only creates clash. There was a general lack of BGOs, although this can be somewhat excused since it's 8-bit, it still felt a little empty.


NPCs: 3.5/10

The enemy placement was okay, during some parts there were all sorts of enemies just randomly thrown in. The Bowser Jr. boss was almost impossible to beat because the bombs were too big and you couldn't even throw them back. After you beat the Bowser Jr. boss... no. Just no. Don't ever do this. I know you're trying to simulate a cinematic effect by making the earth shake, but don't do it with POW block generators, please, especially not at this rate. Another thing was the piranha plant of the level that came out of a pipe... but in a really unusual way.



Not only does this create cutoff, it's also unfair to the players who don't expect a piranha to come out of the middle of nowhere.

There were about exactly none coins in this level, except for the one's in the blocks at the very start and the very ending of the level. I suggest you add some of these.

The powerup placement was aight, except for one point this level was good to beat with the given powerups.


Gameplay & Design: 5/10

This level was a nice play, I liked the thing you did with the NPCs, I actually had to laugh at the Kuribo Goomba, and although the SMW Goomba clashed really hard, I still found it funny.
The Bowser Jr. boss was nice, except that it was really hard to beat, as well as the last boss of the level. The story you tried to implement was interesting, although your English could still improve a little so it becomes more understandable to the player ;P

As for the design, you made one of these levels where you start off in some plains, then make your way through the level, to end up in a castle in the end and fight the final boss. This worked well for the most part, although the first section was a bit inconsistant where you first went for some plain-styled level, then it turned into an "athletic" level, then it went back to plains, then a spiny field and then the followed the first boss. What I really liked though were the references to SMB 1-1 and SMB3 1-1.



Over all, this level was nice, it had a few flaws, but it was nice.

Final score: 4.4/10, moved to Average
