Hello everyone  :)

I'm back to the forum. I was known as Saturneo on the forum before, so some people may remember me. I restarted playing Knytt Stories a couple of days ago.

Here's the level's plot and some screenshots :

In a small village named Guatamente, situated on a wild Island in Fergon Sea, approximately ten people are living here. They were very helpful and happy together.

But something was scaring all of them. Not far from here, there are dangerous waterfalls, that no one wanted to cross. But Fergia wanted to. So one evening, she secretly get behind the waterfalls, to see what's behind...


If you have any idea to ameliorate the level, just guess it  ;)

PS :: Sorry I'm French so I sometimes make mistakes  :/

Looks cute  :) . Is going to be a big/small level? Is going to be a challenge or an enviromental? When you will be able to finish it? OK, too many questions  :P2

Certainly a big level. It is going to be environmental I think. For the release date, I don't know ! But you'll have a first beta version in approximately 4 days  ;)

I'd like to make an atmosphere a bit similar to Knytt's one but I dont have much talent for level decoration, I always find something missing in the decoration but I don't know what it is  :/

Does it have anything to do with, El Dorado? - The city of gold?

And it looks nice.

I think it's a hole in the boat.

Yes there's a hole in the boat, but I can't put the boat in better place, if I put it one tile up it doesn't float on water  :S

Then why don't you edit tileset, so boat would be 'higher' ?

Not a bad idea, I'll ask the tileset's maker to have his permission to do it.

I really think that you don't need permission for that kind of modification.

Well said. You certainly are right. I'll modify the boat later  ;)

I really like the atmosphere and general look of these screens. The transition, in the second screen, from the background to the inside of the cave, looks a bit strange, though. Still - definitely a level to look forward to.

I'm happy that you like the look and the atmosphere of the screens  :)  .
I know that the transition is a bit strange, but I never had talent with transitions between screens lol

First beta version released :
A little overview of the first part of the level  :) There are still incomplete areas so don't matter, just tell me what you think  :^^:

It is nice - I want to play it a bit more :)
Now time for some criticism  ;)

- The level has some "sudden deaths" after going to a new screen (like in x991y1001).
- The Photo realistic backgrounds are nice, but the mixture of the "knytt"-like backgrounds and photo realistic-backgrounds in the same level feels strange.

Thanks  :)

-Yes, I think "sudden deaths" should be removed, I'll remove them :)
-You're right, when replaying my level entirely, I also find this strange. So I'll remove the knytt background and add some new pictures (like a real sky for the rocky waterfall)
