Title: [Challenge/Normal/Small] Contrasts
Post by: Hmpf on February 17, 2010, 03:18:55: Okay, so I've decided to turn this result of my "random inspiration technique" (see: http://nifflas.lpchip.nl/index.php?topic=2786.msg31954) into a small exercise for myself on how to make challenge levels. Emphasis on "small".

Only two screens so far, one of which you find below.

Also, being more interested in environments, I tried such exercises too, only I don't think I've ever succeeded at making a decent challenge level. :S

Hey, nobody says this will be a *decent* challenge level! ;-)

Oops, didn't realize I sounded kind of discouraging there. :oops: Sorry! Here's a hedgehog to help you with the level, then: :hedgehog:

Oh, don't worry, I didn't take it that way! Nice hedgehog, though.

Post by: Hmpf on March 19, 2010, 16:03:06: Yeah, still working on this. It's... something like five screens now, I think. It won't become much larger, probably under ten screens. The main thing I've learned from it so far is that I really suck at creating challenges. *g*

Post by: Salmoneous on March 19, 2010, 19:21:31: I like this kind of tile-puke-mosh style, it is really interesting and I enjoyd Yohjis' levels with this style. good luck, can't wait.
