Orientation [Environmental/Misc]

Played it like a good little kid (the thought of immortality among the Collective was appealing to me) and got the White Ending, which is apparently bad.

Next time I'll have to try and break mother.

I hate to necro-bump a dead thread, but the download link isn't working, says it's a deleted file. But the level looks amazing, and I really do wanna play this. :v

I updated the first post with a new download link... I'm not sure why Mediafire deleted the old one, though it was made before I had to make an account to use mediafire. Maybe it just didn't get enough downloads and got deleted.

Anyway, there's a large broken section hidden in this version because I don't have the old version to post and I stopped in the middle of expanding this level. You're not likely to encounter it but if you do notice the door open to the orb/sphere room, don't go inside if you want to finish the level because you get stuck. But it's likely no one will ever get in there anyway.

Fascinating! Have you abandoned plans for expansion of this level, or do you think you still might complete this area in the future?

It started out as a menu test but that led to me making destinations where the menu would take you. I suppose it shouldn't take that much effort to finish it but it's not a high priority given that you have to go out of your way to get into the area. How to get into the "secret" area:
See, I really wanted a menu for something in the other level and messing around in this one gave me a way to do it.  First you use the same technique that says [hold up for yes, press down for no] except down changes the selection in the menu and you simply have an exit option.

So, it's Shifts in a line where the one at the top shifts you down a few spaces on touch and those spaces have a separate shift that can be activated by pressing down and holding up wallswims you down into a shift at the bottom of the line that is another shift on touch that "selects" something. Of course this is all behind a hide block, 6/7 custom object. I can't believe I didn't think of it sooner. Then you just put up arrow with EXECUTE SELECTION and down arrow with CHANGE SELECTION in the corner as directions.

Anyway, I'll probably finish it when I finish the other level, so in Kickstarter terms my estimated delivery date: June 2013.  Or whenever eventually gets here. I also want to clean up a few things in this level that aren't quite in line with the Empty Planet but that's very minor stuff nobody but me will notice as well. I should stop rambling.

Oh my gooooood, this is amazing.
Take a star. Take it. Please.

This is the kind of thing I've been wanting to make for a while, now. And it's not even modded! It's just fascinating that you can do all this with just simple base Knytt Stories!

EDIT: Found a few bugs!

Still one of the best levels ever. Right up there with Teenhmifnoeafgil. :3

How to get into the "secret" area:

Spoiler: (click to show/hide)

Reverse the matter polarity or whatever and warp across the white liquid area where you'll be near the orb/sphere room's closed door. Then reverse the polarity whatsits again so you can warp back across the white liquid but instead go back to the orb/sphere room. It will close on you and there's a terminal there that lets you select different tests/games to run in the "VR Sphere." And then you can do one of the tests in it and I believe the rest of it is broken. And you also can't exit the room once the door closes. Why it closes, I now have no idea.  Deems pointlessly herding to the player like invisible walls, I should just get rid of that and not worry about it.

Ohh, I walked into that and got stuck; the brokenness got too much for me at that point and I quit in a bad mood.
I found a couple of other gglitchy areas; walking back out of the screen with the three drops, two of which teleport you back, sent you to the wrong screen. With that and the broken sphere screen where I expected a secret ending, I gave up. Plus having to start from the beginning after ending is a bit of a pain, though it makes sense. Still, I'll give this another go when I get home from work.

Due to the complaints about glitchy brokeness, I'm uploading the last official version which is entirely solid as far as I know. It'll be available in about 20 minutes.

Warning! This is an older but more stable version.

Thank you, egomassive. I'll update the first post with that and hide the "beta" version. I didn't mean to imply that the secret area was playable and sorry if anyone went into it thinking that. But still, thanks Pumpkinbot for the bugs on that section, they were helpful.

No problem! :3 I still say that this is one of the best levels ever. It's amazing that all this can be done without modding Knytt Stories.

Oh wow how did I miss this level before???  I want to play it, but mediafire is hating on me still.  Anychance of a mirror link please please?

egomassive has a download link from his site a few posts up.

OH!  Derp.  Thanks.  -_-

Wow, this really is one of the best stories I've ever played!  Fantastic job!  Very well thought out, planned and executed!  Super excited to see what you do next!!!  Man, the COs!!!!!!!!  You totally transformed KS into your own world!

I think the new additions are pretty neat. It would be great to see the other programs, but I'm far more interested in seeing The Empty Planet completed.
