Level Contest 9: First Place

[Marina]

You know what the ultimate plottwist would be? An even draw between the two :P

Edit: Also I moved up from place 8 to place 5, take that hue. (And sorry SnifitGuy but now you're 7th instead of 6th ;-;)

[Sux]

Shinbison is my best friend, and I know how you're a great level designer, I really want than you win, but I think than Darkonious will do it. But I will continue supporting Shin!
Good luck for either!

[Kyo]

Chad didn't do it again. I kinda feel sorry for him.

And congratz darky and shinbison.

[MECHDRAGON777]

I think it will be darkonious! Still prevent it if as303298 won though!

[zioy]

I prefer Darkonius's gimmicks and atmosphere and Shibinson for everything else..

Idk

Congrats to Darkonius and Shinbison for getting into Top 2. My guess is that Shinbison will win, but I hope Darkonius wins. And I must congrats Blue, Bomber, TNT, hnumbers and GLoogiX (<3) for getting into Top 10!

[Bomber57]

Ooh boy, 6th place. Well, it isn't 7th!

Sorry some of you had framerate issues in the darkness section, I seemed to have no such issue.

Also, the reason you play through that section as small Mario is because if you go from Small Mario to Big Mario or vice versa, it causes the attached layer to glitch if you are holding the lantern. I gave the section fewer enemies to compensate.

Glad you guys enjoyed my level! I tried to break out of my usual mold a little bit this time. I even got a perfect 10 from one of the judges, that might be a first!

There was a part where you had to jump on a skull raft and quickly off of it because it would start moving the wrong way and there was very little vertical space for the jump and even a Piranha Plant coming out of the pipe in the ceiling. I thought that was pretty unfair.

Did you keep the propeller block through that part? I intended for the player to descend slowly with it in that spot while watching for the right opportunity to zip on past there. I can see where that would have been unclear and irritating, though. I actually did make that pipe shorter originally, but wondered if that would be too easy.

Finally, I would apply nofireball=1 to the upside-down space helmet Goombas, unless you had a reason to make those vulnerable to fireballs unlike the walking ones.

I intended to make those a bit like the helmet Goombas from Galaxy, where you can't stomp on them until you flip them over. The logic in my mind is that when they're right-side-up, the helmet is immune to the fireball, but their bodies are much more exposed to it when they're flipped. I thought that would be an interesting minor twist on the ordinary SMW Goomba.

I can see where you guys are coming from with the other stuff, though. Also, I had a strong feeling I wasn't going to beat one of the two levels that remains, but I'm not sure which user made it and I forget what the other one is. At least I got 3rd place, as beating any level that makes the Top 10 is quite a feat.

Also, the reason you play through that section as small Mario is because if you go from Small Mario to Big Mario or vice versa, it causes the attached layer to glitch if you are holding the lantern. I gave the section fewer enemies to compensate.

Oh, okay. That makes sense.

I wonder how many times you just mentioned asnumbers in this thread already...

[Magna]

So who's in the final two?

[Marina]

lrn2read Magna, it's Shinbison and Darkonius

[Emral]

Rooting for Darkonius, if that's the choice I'm presented with. His levels are generally more colourful and fun than Shinbison's. I still wonder how it got to such a warped finale.

I'm wondering how this warped post got on here. Seriously who says that someone doesn't deserve to be in the final two?

I may not know how many times I mentioned him, but I still want to see him win! I also wish to tie for first with bossedit8 In one of these contests!

[Darkonius Mavakar]

Oh god it's me vs shinbison.


OKAY SHINBISON WON I HAVE NO CHANCES TO WIN AGINST HIM.

edit: just saw Emral's.post, glad to see someone supporting me!
