[Challenge][Very Hard] Dark Sea 2

Unfortunately, I have canceled my older project Amidst the Clouds. For all of you who were looking forward to that, I'll probably post the unfinished beta of it sometime (it's got some decent length to it, but I wont continue ATC unless like everyone ever goes into a manic depression because it was canceled). However, on the plus side, I'm scrapping ATC's parts to help me make my newest project, the actual sequel to Dark Sea.

The level involves Juni trying to go to the Lab of Professor Nuance via his submarine, the Archetype 1, which mysteriously is sitting out at sea, unattended. Juni has to go through many satellite underwater bases in order to safely make it to Nuance's main lab way down at the ocean floor. The level has a lot of the feel of Dark Sea, but also an enhanced influence of AUA.

(On the first screen you can already see I'm re-using the boat from Amidst the Clouds  )

I was really looking forward to admist the clouds, good that you will release the beta.
This sounds very good as well. Looks good I also like how you used the boat as a CO.

Oh dear, here we go again.

Oh dear, here we go again.

Would you prefer Safety 3?

I would prefer to throw Safety 3 in a 300-meter-deep hole and bury it in tons upon tons of molten metal!

Aw yeah, Dark Sea 2. Im looking forward for this, it looks good.

MAKE A SAFETY 3, I DARE YOU  

Basically, We got a good level maker here.

You must surely get some enjoyment out of threatening me with to-be insane levels..

Just seeing what you prefer...

Safety 3 or Descent to Hell

I think I'd prefer we stick to the topic at hand.

By the way, Can you make a normal or easy mode for the game, i wonder how you can make a level at the difficulty of normal or easier, I noticed you like to make hard levels. Anyways, This will be awesome

I'm sure a lot of people would love me to make an easier KS level, but I just love a good challenge.

Making an easier level is a challenge all in itself, I've found.

But I played through Dark Sea today and really, really enjoyed it! T'was very pretty, and quite atmospheric. Only I never got down that big pit in the middle...
Apart from the lasers at the end, which were down-right fiendish, it was very fun, and I definitely look forward to playing a sequel! (I also look forward to being able to spell 'definitely' on the first attempt.) Your submarine looks great.

Juni must use this submarine to navigate her way to the evil underwater lab of Dr. Subtle

I wonder how that'll work...

Making an easier level is a challenge all in itself, I've found.

1. Find an enemy that barely moves at all.
2. Place one of those on every two screens. Make sure that it is in a completely open space.
3. Put a save point on every four screens.
4. ????
5. Profit!

And I speak from experience.

Same here. I don't think a level is complete without something hard to do in your way

BIG BUMP.

Yeah, I'm still making this. The main post has been updated with new screenies and plot.
