with doomsday having ended,,, something new will emerge tomorrow. some people talked about a hype thread,, so here it is.
there it is, in all it's light scheme glory! i'll give you a hint,,, it's gonna be a wild inconsistent tornado of an adventure. and also i made this thread earlier than raocow wanted, but i think it's about high time to knock god off his peg a lil.
edit; and,,, it's up! raocow is lping the recent chocolate level design contest run over on smwcentral.net. there are 35 entries, in my recollection the bottom three are normal, the top 3 are normal, and the rests rankings are randomized. it's a kinda weird touch, but it fits a weird series like this. the entries all had codenames (of which today's video had one) in order to semi-anonymize for the judges (noivern, fpzero, and blind devil). that's it!

Re: The Next Mystery raocow LP
Unfortunately, YUMP team (not to be confused with JUMP team, they still want to include GAY SHT in JUMP half) quickly removed this stage like 2 days ago just in time for this LP.

By the way, for reference, this was the original thread, before this has started, if posts before seem unusual.idol wrote: ↑5 years ago with doomsday having ended,,, something new will emerge tomorrow. some people talked about a hype thread,, so here it is.

Re: The Next Mystery raocow LP
Okay, so, @raocow, there is a secret exit in Lespna1's stage. You may want to do it or something.

Re: The Next Mystery raocow LP
One thing I loved about "Cave M. Ghost Manor" is the abrupt screen transition, showing just a slight bit of potential with that New Super Mario Bros. ghost house music. I wish it used more creepy tracks and jarring tracks to take advantage of that.
Otherwise, level was super weird haha

Re: The Next Mystery raocow LP
Well, that sure was a level.
A very janky level that would've taken less effort to not be janky, but uh
yeah that really was just the definition of something kinda below average that was actually brought down by the creator's attempts to make it more special than it actually is wasn't it

Re: The Next Mystery raocow LP

Re: The Next Mystery raocow LP
My guess is that the blocks around the key-and-keyhole can be broken with fireballs.
Also I have to assume that lava in the weird "jump around off the top of the screen" moment was intended to move up and down with the rest of the platforms.
What's up with the Twin Fort level? This submission feels like a work-in-progress snapshot from some larger play-as-Kirby hack the designer is developing.

Re: The Next Mystery raocow LP
I would have preferred the mystery LP being VLDCX.
Re: The Next Mystery raocow LP
Last I recall, there were talks of doing a top 60 collab ROM, but I haven’t really followed SMWC in almost a year now so I don’t know if it ever took off/is still happening.
Re: The Next Mystery raocow LP
I heard that too. I don't think anything came from it. There's no visible progress as far as I can tell.
Re: Chocolate Level Design Contest 2018 - apples
stuff with vldcx is kind of h
anywys here's some stuff.
Cave M. Ghost Manor
Placement: 35th
Codename: Kirby
Author: Lespna1
my random thoughts before watching the video:
this level was fucking bizarre, and the next level is gonna be a trip too. this contest has two of the most wild last place entries ive seen in a contest. theyre not even outright bad,,, okay, well they are. but not in an infuriating way where its boring, contrived, hard as hell, or designed poorly. theyre just both so abstracted from regular level design ethos. this level really amused me though. lespna kinda posted a big rant in the contest forum about getting last place, but god it be like that huh. i gave it the codename kirby (i assembled the roms for the judges) because i saw a kirby. i promise some of the other entries have more interesting codenames.
ok time to watch vigeo
edit; oh god when he got to the overworld that reminded me. lespna1 seemingly either built this in his own currently existing romhack, he just used a level from his own existing romhack, or he made an entire hack for this. i played through as much of it as i could ,,,, its about what you'd expect. and yeah this level had random blocks that give you more time, and broken graphics versions of this sprite.

Re: Chocolate Level Design Contest 2018 - apples
Yeah SMWC is working on VLDCX behind the scenes but they're not going to like break their backs over getting it out quickly.
Anyway, as idol mentioned somewhere, what's kind of fascinating about this contest is that there really isn't any super boring levels; you can argue that each one has a unique identity.

Yeah, that's pretty much the last thing I saw from it. Wasn't sure if it got anywhere there. Still love it though!

Re: Chocolate Level Design Contest 2018 - apples
Technically, raocow could always play VLDCX in the same individual-ROM style that we know and love and is being done here for CLDC. Especially since VLDCX would be a collab at best, and knowing raocow, he'd want to play every level anyways. also my level barely missed the cutoff for making it into a collab
