    Thoughts on SRB2

    I'm referring to the small outside area you go to after the Detons fly at you, and right before the conveyor belt into the rotating crushers. It has a death pit, a few blue platforms with spikes, and pop-up turrets on two of the platforms.

    Thoughts on SRB2

    Mystic, I just revisited Scrap Brain to refresh my memory, since the first Sonic is my least played. I can see what you mean - there's a similar feel. On Scrap Brain, though, the difficulty isn't maxed out to the same degree. There's a lot of insta-death via pits and crushing, yes, but more...

    Thoughts on SRB2

    Ha, I still love you, AJ. Don't you have a kid to raise or something? :P Yeah, I figured as much. I know having huge open areas causes way too much lag and glitches. Still, some design tweaks could make the transition from room to room a bit less obvious. Well, my point here is that it takes a...

    Thoughts on SRB2

    Hey all, a few people here might remember that I was a coder, tester, and avid custom level maker for SRB2 years back, but more-or-less quit in 2005. At the time, I was kind of burnt out on the whole thing and felt that the game would never get done. Now that I've finally played the current...

    Persepolis

    I read the graphic novel. Good book! (I'm too lazy to look at YouTube, so I'm just assuming that's what this is based on.)

    Master Server Rules

    It's a technical problem really. The Host Game menu needs a little '[ ] Hangout' checkbox, and a way to hide those when browsing the list. Problem solved.

    Icy Everest Zone 1

    I enjoyed this level. Nice work. Some of the traps felt cheap, like the death pits being too close to the surrounding floor, and the pop-up turret that got me right at the top of a spring. But it was fun enough that I wanted to keep trying in spite of this, so you clearly did something right :)

    Beer, Drugs, and Fags

    Marijuana is a much safer drug than alcohol. The lethal dose is unbelievably huge, a thousand times or more the dose required to get you high. (In other words, in practice, MJ won't kill you. Ever.) For alcohol the lethal dose is only 10-20 times...

    Beer, Drugs, and Fags

    Gotta agree. Pot is the only drug worth using, aside from the hard stuff (but most of us shouldn't touch that).

    Official Level Design Contest Voting: November-December 2007

    Sapphire Coast Zone, Act 1 by Blade T. Hedgehog - 7/10 This begins a little too reminiscent of Jade Coast Zone, but you redeem yourself, originality-wise, with a flatter, more serpentine layout. There seems to be a standard for long levels that go up and up and up, and that can get tiresome, so...

    Grey hill zone (my first zone)

    It's not bad for a first effort. Keep at it!

    Huh.

    Thokking is horrible. The game would be much better without it.

    What ever happened to the green shield?

    Where's the "Don't mess with my shields" option? If it ain't broke...

    A quick question.

    It's by player number, not node number. Type "getplayernum".

    Official Level Design Contest: May/June

    No, that's plagiarism. Stealing is taking something from someone and thereby depriving them of it. If I eat your pasta, you no longer have dinner; if I copy your level, you still have your copy.
