raocow's talkhaus

Yes @strongbadman this hack is a gigantic time commitment.

Also, counting tiles to see how high you can feasibly jump is an important skill. The secret exit's intended camera strategy for example.

When playing through this hack, my emotional state after resetting the trash room 2 times: "I'm dead. He got me." "Hahaha that's hilarious." "Also I hate this guy." "I don't feel safe anymore." "Never trust Wagokoro." This took me like 80+ tries, so ...

In a vertical level, you have to despawn persistent sprites at the side of the screen. The spring-board dropped in the pit would have taken around 20 minutes to wrap around to the top of the level. Thank God no one has ever made a level requiring this. *Kaizo hackers furiously begin taking notes* A...

I think every single obstacle was done in an unintended way. At every obstacle I was like "raocow has to figure out the intended solution now, there's no way", and he always manages to surprise me.

I was also quite impressed with trepenation clinic. BALLER on the other hand was frustrating for me, although honestly the super ball sprite is so awful, and frozenquills did the most creative things he could. Also some devcom on my levels-- initially, russianman's beef-grinding grinder was so power...

I still like the idea of using a very small piece of ASM to create a good level.

FruiTea was an amazingly crafted level

aw don't be embarrassed that you won (even if most of the jump1/2 team was kind of jaded to this type of design) Also, Mandew updated the bouncing spiny eggs recently so that they could be easier to deal with: https://www.smwcentral.net/?p=section&a=details&id=18011. Perhaps the venus plant ...

to be fair raocow did enjoy MiracleWater's CLDC entry very, very much

controllable carrot: disappears without notice
chomp: jumps 8 times, then without notice does a large jump that is much faster and higher

good sprites I tell you. aaaaaaaa

to be fair setting up the sprites was an absolute pain, and many sprites needed to be fixed because of some PIXI routine thing I don't understand.

Also, the sprites in this box are just awful. The fire guy and the shotzo are not well-designed sprites.

It's worth noting that mellonpizza helped immensely with the ASM in Smasher Stronghold.

fun fact, the level idea came to me after I got tired running home from school

Keyboard makes hell of a difference. (But also, this guy is extremely good at mario.)

1. I'd say the level is a blend between Hai Mari (note: the codename of the level was "hyper") and Morsel (the setup at https://youtu.be/PI80u-4Bv8Y?t=2s is identical). 2. These levels are definitely possible on a first try; I'd say they "look difficult" but aren't actually all t...

The puzzle section looked like the best part of the level, though it would have been unpleasant to run out of time there. Or dying there in general, since there was no apparent midpoint after the first Boom-Boom fight. You respawn in the room you died in if you die in one of the puzzle areas. Doesn...

Didn't I hear some complaining in this thread about how short and hard levels would be preferable over long levels?

Well Hai Mari granted this wish.

but long levels can give Stress and Thrill and Sweaty Hands, which a few people might enjoy.
