Title: Hardest Very Hard level
Post by: special_d on September 22, 2009, 04:16:26
I'm playing Afar at the moment on VH difficulty and I've got to say, it's pretty difficult. What say you?

I personally think Forest And Sky is just crazy hard for a level labeled Very Hard. (People who say Dark Sea is are weird)

Some parts, definitely.

Almost reminiscent of IWBTG..

Yeah.. dark sea is about 1/3 up the spectrum.

I've gotta try that!

Spiral, perhaps.
Or maybe my level Gehenna which I've heard many thinks should be Lunatic, I dont think that.
Well, I think that very hard isn't so different from Lunatic, I think that Lunatic is unnecessary.

Yeah. Gehenna isn't too hard for a very hard. Honestly though, Hardest Very Hard Level is kind of hard to dispute.

Actually, it's my own thread, so I'm going to hijack it. I do need help on Afar VH mode. I have run, climb, double, high jump, eye, red and blue keys. Where do I go now?  <_<

Assuming you haven't played Afar normal:

Afar on Very Hard is not Very Hard.  It is Lunatic.

The green area (ever since the horrible invisible part was made visible) isn't that bad, but the blue area - is indeed the sort of thing you'd expect to see in IWBTG.  I have never managed to pass that screen where you have to make five frame-perfect, pixel-perfect jumps in a row - I always had to cheat past it.

3, actually. And I made it past there twice. (There and back) Ever since then, I spend half an hour guessing the code rather than go that way.

Okay, so, after getting the umbrella, how do I actually leave the level? I've tried getting to the exit but there's spikes in the way...

Sorry for reviving such an old topic, but what's this I hear about the invisible part of Afar's green area having been made visible? I was only able to find one version of this level, and that part is invisible there. I had to cheat and look at it in the level editor to figure out how to get past it. If there's a version I can beat legitimately without insane amounts of trial and error, I'd like to give it a try.

I think minmay refers to using the editor to put green tiles on the invisible tiles so they're visible in the game. If I remember correctly, something like this was done.
