Re: Episode 2 Discussion Thread

It's probably the kind of thing that would be fun to unlock in spurts. Like 20 stars give you the first batch, 40 give you the next, and they're all accessed through the central hub or something like that?

Re: Episode 2 Discussion Thread

Hi, uhm. I think this is probably the right place to post this? I don't know how much of the second episode's structure has been decided yet, but I wanted to bring up an idea for an unlockable bonus like the library in episode 1. That is, I think it'd be cool to have sort of a bestiary going on, wit...

Re: Level Submission FAQ/Notes (Download Base Game/Devkit Here)

So hey, what about town levels? It's been suggested by several people that I should create town levels, so I'd like to give a shot at doing at least one. But that's probably not something I can just randomly start making and hope it fits in, right? (Sorry if I'm missing something, I'm pretty sick ri...

Re: MaGL X2 - LUESoldat x Emotion OTP

You take part in a contest where the reward is that a dude's going to play it while a couple thousand people watch because you want to be appreciated. Speak for yourself. My motivation had literally nothing to do with that. It was as simple as I wanted to see what kind of level I could come up with...

Re: MaGL X2 - LUESoldat x Emotion OTP

Aww geez. Thanks for saying that! I just added that last bit as a little joke, though, mostly because I knew I couldn't talk about the heavy effect of the judges' personal tastes on a level's ranking without people going "yeah, ain't that something". ^^; We should probably focus on the new...

Re: MaGL X2 - LUESoldat x Emotion OTP

I mean, yeah! I just keep thinking of that one level that... I dunno, must've been something like 20-ish points ago. Which seems like a lot! But, yeah, I guess the contest is just so freaking massive that a bit of differing taste among the judges can go a very long way. (*nervous sweating*)

Re: MaGL X2 - LUESoldat x Emotion OTP

You are correct, that was indeed very self-indulgent. You know... I'm done being depressed about this nonsense, so here's two things. One, I just want to point out that literally everyone who took part in this contest had roughly the same motivation as I. You take part in a contest where the reward...

Re: MaGL X2 - raocow x Lasagna OTP

You had your moment in the spotligjt, don't be greedy. I'm aware of that, but... there were so many people who felt like the level was preachy, and pretentious bullshit, and sucking up to the judges and stuff like that, but the part they're missing is a developer's commentary room that explains wha...

Re: MaGL X2 - raocow x Lasagna OTP

... I don't want to cause any more drama than I already did, but I have to say, raocow, I didn't expect you not to go back and show the parts you've missed. Why didn't you? That doesn't really seem fair. Well, that's a little condescending, isn't it? To imply that anyone who didn't like it just didn...

Re: MaGL X2 - raocow x Lasagna OTP

Quill. <3 You're welcome, buddy. What's meaningful about this level, what makes it good, is that everything the various characters have to say is meaningful. There's a video game called Middens that is kind of like that level except more chaotic, violent and an RPG and in that game everyone has vari...

Re: MaGL X2 - raocow x Lasagna OTP

But raocow said that winning a judge's favorite is just as good as winning first place so that means I didn't follow the gimmick and won first place TWICE for it! TWO FIRST PLACES BRUH

Re: MaGL X2 - raocow x Lasagna OTP

I have a question for you, actually, fawriel if your goal was to place as low as possible... why did you make your level so... like, pretty ? Like I get it, it's part of the experience, but it's pretty much impossible to score lower than you have with a pleasant, unified visual atmosphere that you ...

Re: MaGL X2 - raocow x Lasagna OTP

It seems that the judges don't have the same idea of what they're actually supposed to be judging (this is different from judges having different thoughts on what levels were good under a common agreement on what they're judging). The contest has not made this clear, and there were no instructions ...

Re: MaGL X2 - raocow x Lasagna OTP

Interesting approach. That's how I approach art in general, and as far as I see it, videogames are art, so technically that should be good. It'll probably be really hard to gauge in a lot of cases, though... like, what exactly does the average level in the bottom rungs of this level set out to do be...

Re: MaGL X2 - raocow x Lasagna OTP

What I'm seeing here is that a level that did something new scored well mostly because it's new. You had no reference point, nothing to compare this to. If there were a whole contest of 100 of this type of genre, I'm sure you'd realize the flaws of this level and score it accordingly. This is the k...
