Hello everyone, I'm still working on this. If you're wondering why there's so long between updates, I'm preparing for (and now taking) my uni exams. There should be more frequent updates after I'm finished at the end of June.

Anyway, here is a new area I've come up with. No name for it yet, suggestions? Any comments on the actual screenshot?

Whoa. This is looking seriously epic.

Simply "The Blue Place" might work here. You could have some wistful music to go with it- maybe I could help for that part? ;3
grao!

I like Knytt-likes, we haven't had a good one in a while, and this looks promising. Keep it up! C)

Are Nifflas' levels Knytt-likes? :O

All of Nifflas's released KS levels are challenge-oriented to varying degrees, but there is, of course, a heavy focus on environment.
good bye

Well, exactly. I had plans for a challenging section of this level but I thought I wouldn't fit in with the concept. I shall still work on that idea, however. After this, sometime, I think.

And also, regarding your other post, it's great to know someone else knows China Mieville. His writing is incredible.

Anyway, nice to see a fellow Brit making levels (I miss Si!)

I'm planning one for when my exams are finished, I'll try and make it as British as possible! (Constant rain, cynicism, cups of tea and a very cockney policeman....)

Keep up the good work on this level by the way! :^^:

Well, hello everyone, I guess this is my official introduction.

I'm one of Aptequar's friends, and I'll also be working on this level. Apt is still the main creator of everything, I'm doing some digital paintings for backgrounds. The idea is for most of the areas that Apt's pixel work will be in the foreground, and my backgrounds will be more realistic.

So hello, anyway, and that's happening.  :^^:
