EDIT: There's now an update in the submissions thread. I've focussed on the difficulty rather than the aesthetic for now. Once the level itself is fixed, I'll look at the aesthetics.

Ah, I see what you mean now. Fair enough. I may look into retexturing those as something more fitting.sedron wrote:More about Demo's Journey Through TimeHoeloe wrote:StuffI'll have to take a look at the updates at some point.

Just tried out Entropy Engine.
my avatar is from that obake game made in 2001 that you cannot play anymore unless you run it through a virtual machine and apply a locale patch
Re: Episode 2 Review Thread
I'm very happy to have feedback on this. My main issue was not knowing how much creator bias I had, since I figured knowing the layout ahead of time would make it a lot easier for me.Oddwrath wrote:Just tried out Entropy Engine.

Re: Episode 2 Review Thread
Planning to tackle several of the recently posted/reposted levels and give feedback over the weekend.
We should probably send a mass PM out to all authors (using bcc) who submitted a level before this thread was made live, to alert them that they should resubmit/repost here. Unless that's been done already?

Re: Episode 2 Review Thread
Okay, having spent the last few hours staring at the dev kit wishing there was somewhere to ask crazy newbie questions, I've decided to help in what way I actually can, by playtesting other peoples levels XD Bear in mind that I am unable to play with sound because this causes my game to crash, so I can only judge on the level design and graphics.

Thanks for reviewing my level, The Museum of Elements.Mindez wrote:Managed to get stuck, first time reaching the gourd. Sliding under the block to get to the gourd pushed me down a block, so I can only slide left and right across the map and can't get out. Screenshot: http://puu.sh/chUhv/71f1908251.png
Every single other time I tried, it pushed me two blocks down and killed me by falling off the map. In 10 or so attempts I have not managed to get the gourd and safely get out.
I had to stare at this picture for like 10 seconds before I realized what was going on. There's actually an invisible pipe where the blue coin trail ends on the ground, you aren't supposed to glitch your way through the wall.
I fixed it so you can't die horribly trying anymore. (and can actually succeed if you wanna take that path in instead of taking the intended path. :) )
Download link if anyone cares.
Re: Episode 2 Review Thread
I would like to review all of the levels submitted if possible, but there's already a LOT of them so I'm gonna go slowly on this.

The Dark Lord's Castle- KingTwelveSixteen
That's all for now.

Well, Imik's Castle does use Luna Lua, if you don't have that it won't work...

Re: Episode 2 Review Thread
If someone could link me a download for the new LunaDLL/LunaLUA that works with Episode 1, that would be appreciated.KingTwelveSixteen wrote:Well, Imik's Castle does use Luna Lua, if you don't have that it won't work...
Re: Episode 2 Review Thread
I'm pretty sure LunaLua is an extension using the same base as LunaDLL, so the LunaLua installation shouldn't break anything from episode 1. Might be worth getting Kevsoft to confirm that.SAJewers wrote:If someone could link me a download for the new LunaDLL/LunaLUA that works with Episode 1, that would be appreciated.KingTwelveSixteen wrote:Well, Imik's Castle does use Luna Lua, if you don't have that it won't work...
Re: Episode 2 Review Thread
Okay, LunaLua all setup and I can confirm it does work. Sorry KingTwelveSixteen, these forums are a little bit confusing for a newcomer. :) I don't have time for a proper review right now, but I'll have a go tomorrow morning!
(Anybody else that may have been confused, the new LunaDLL is here viewtopic.php?f=36&t=14980 - I just made a copy of the base folder, not sure if it's backwards compatible with the episode 1 LunaDLL or not)

Re: Episode 2 Review Thread
Got Imik's Castle working, thank you Mindez for the link! I'm gonna review it now, but you still should too. Multiple reviews on every level is optimal.
Imik's Castle- KingTwelveSixteen (For real this time)
Probably more reviews a little bit later.

I am working together with kil. So every changes he does is always together with the LunaLua extension. My lastest changes can be always found here.Hoeloe wrote: I'm pretty sure LunaLua is an extension using the same base as LunaDLL, so the LunaLua installation shouldn't break anything from episode 1.

Re: Episode 2 Review Thread
TIME TO MAKE A SILLY QUESTION!
my level already got reviewed during the Episode 1 period, but my level didn't get into episode 1, so the question is:
Does my level need to be reviewed again for Episode 2 even if it already got reviewed in Episode 1 despite not being in it?
