Adventure III
« on: November 30, 2020, 10:54:30 PM »
I am in the final playability testing phase for my sandbox level Adventure III.
I should have it ready in the next few days to upload into the Explore section

This will create the Adventure trilogy

p.s. I might make more Adventure games in the future

I couldn't get past the first level. I got really far into it, then I died, and then all of the collectables I spent what felt like 5 minutes collecting and a bit of trial and error, then I basically got sent back to the beginning, and felt absolutely no desire to keep going. It was fun while it lasted, and all I can say for now is that the level design was awfully creative and inventive.

As it is a sandbox there is only 1 level.

I have placed several checkpoints around the level so keep an eye out for those.
Also in some "?" containers you can get items that refill your HP, look for them also.

@warrior I don't get the reference, as I have never played Banjo Kazooie, but that still made me laugh.

@Christian Game Maker (CGM) the reference is that the 64 version has pretty much the problem I quoted: Each world has 100 notes to collect, but the notecount is saved only when reaching 100, meaning you have to collect everything again if you die.
Btw you should play it, it did not aged super well but it's still a very cool game. You can dm me anytime if you want help to install it.

@warrior No thanks, I'll pass on Banjo Kazooie. Though it'd be cool to play it with high-end graphics, I'm sure.

I've just made an update to Adventure III

I have added extra save points, fixed some tile issues and some minor tweeks for playability.

Who will be first to complete this sandbox level, will you be the first ?

Give it a try

I don't recall how this level was like before, so take that in mind.
there are few spots where I would have done tiling differently (eg. pipe and teleport, bars aren't connected to the ceiling, ground edges around lava). but that's just a nitpick. overall, it's fine.
I'm not 100% sure on those checkpoints, either. in the green key area, I would put a checkpoint right after the player collects a key. on your first play-through, after you leave the pipe, you might not know what's over there and just grab the save point. if you don't already know this level and save it for later (when you actually own the key), the checkpoint is practically useless.
I did, however, enjoyed this sandbox quite a bit. the enemies were fairly placed without being pushovers. jumping on moving platform was fun. disappearing ones can be a little annoying, but you used them well. it's a sizable area but the directions are clear so I never got lost. I like the pipe shortcut in the middle of the stage, that's a nice addition.
overall, good level.  8)
