[KS+][Challenge][Lunatic] A Glimpse
« on: March 05, 2025, 14:53:01 »
Hi!

I bring to your view another lunatic challenge, that is my second official level! Admittedly, it is not as large and ambitious as my previous, and is mostly a rework of my older creation; however, I think it is still an experience, a more compact and colourful one, for those who can of course enjoy lunatic levels. I didn't have any particular inspiration for this level, besides the music, mostly putting ideas in that were in my own attention during various stages of my life.

In case if anyone wonders, I plan to make my next level not actually lunatic and available to a larger variety of people. Even then, there is a chance that someone will likely play this level on recording, so there's no need to worry about missing out too much (I think. ;))

This level is a bit too hard for me, but I can appreciate the artistry at work, and relate to the idea of wanting to make something interesting out of otherwise scrapped ideas.

I appreciate your use of my music and in particular the "Underwater Chrome Facility" tileset which, despite being the first custom tileset I ever made, I never actually put to use in a finished level.

Maybe one day I'll manage to beat this legit. I'll let you know if so.
Things to remember when writing figures of speech and sound:
The power of poetry comes from the ability to defy logic. Defy logic often.

Use a metaphor and tell us that your lover is the sky. Tell us that your lover is the sky. When you do that, we won't believe you. We won't believe you because saying so makes no sense, but we'll see a meaning. We'll see a meaning.

The other thing is the ability to be remembered. Love anything.

Love anything

Thank you for your speedy and thoughtful insight, Fubaka!

Yes, your music is indeed something that I think will stick with KS community for a long while (and personally myself, as I do listen to ambient <3) for a long time. As for the final area tileset, I had no idea in the slightest that was actually your first. It just struck out amongst others that I deemed fitting for the sanctuary. :Р

Best of everything in conquering this level (when you feel like it).
