New level, built in about ten days straight. It's very different from Warmth, if you've played it... this is mostly a puzzle game, with not much environmental work. There are many stages, with new blocks and power-ups appearing once you've climbed high enough. At this point, I've played it through close to ten times. This means I've beta tested myself, and it is indeed possible to conquer every screen. In other words, if you can't, be patient and try again.

I've pondered on digging new puzzle ideas, and hopefully some will be boggling and original.
Here are the stages list, if you don't wanna get clues, don't open this spoiler!

Thanks for playing!!!

I'll introduce my second (or first) KS project, Warmth. Actually, it's one of the two levels I had in mind when I joined this community. It's a small environmental level, made of 32 screens. Right now, 28 are done, so it's a matter of days! The graphics are somewhat minimalistic, but I think they look good and not drafty. I first wanted to make something about ice skating, and I kinda went along with that... lots of snow and ice. I added a bit of story. To summarize, it's about Johny, who feels lonely and takes a walk. (You'll see that there's no place around to get a haircut, so that explains the long hair...)


 

*Update: We're Sunday the 27th, I think I'll have the level finished for next week-end. I still have CC Music to find... at least 2 musics.

Hi. I'm quite a fan of the Metroid series... I've seen a remake attempt of Super Metroid in the archives (Zebes), it looks nice, but very unfinished... so I'd like to finish my own Metroid level! I'm working from Zero Mission. I might focus slightly more on gameplay than on the graphics, since I already have to get used to manipulating tilesets. But this won't be a litteral translation, rather a Knytt world based on the maps and components of Metroid.

Storyline: Junis Aran beat the mother brain, leader of the Space pirates. As she was leaving the planet Zebes, her mission accomplished, a pirate gunship tracked her down. Her own spaceship was shot, and crashed on the planet. When she woke up, she was left defenseless and stranded... the enemies gone, presuming her dead. You have to explore areas around Zebes... maybe you'll find a way to escape.

EDIT on August 21tst:
Worked on the Ridley area lately! Hopefully, you'll be waiting more for "more" quality... if not, then you'll have hundreds more screens anyway. My creative glass is half full. OH BTW, I'm making my own music tracks for the level, isn't that great?!
