At some juncture, pie_sniper and I realized we live 1.5 hours from one another, and that his brother lives in my city. So while he was staying at his brother's house for a weekend, we decided to meet up in real life and make a Knytt level in a very short amount of time. We ended up spending three days on it, not including a brainstorming session the day before. The work was completed at a coffee shop, my apartment, and remotely.

The plot involves Juni taking a train around town to rescue an escaped animal from the zoo. The animal is named Beck because there was a song by Beck playing on the speakers while we were brainstorming.

This is really cute little level. I love how someone finally used the Anderson's train and station tilesets and that you actually get to ride the train. It was made in a few days so it feel really spontaneous and quirky but there are so many little details that show than even in a such short time the authors really put a lot of work into it

I'm glad the train finally got used and made into a star.

Three days, huh? I can hardly decide what part of a level I want to work on in three days. X)

Nice level. Great collab! :)
