Working on a new level pack

[Chromatian]

I have to ask: are you going to actually change the map to fit people's criticism, or are you just going to complain when someone says the map sucks? Player orientation is a huge deal when making maps for Single Player mode, and if you're just going to ignore the fact that different players have different skills, you shouldn't be making maps. At all.

No need to be angry ash, just calm down.

Yes i am im not going to be hard on people or say other things, and im not saying im the only person that can beat my map, look at other posts in this topic and youll find another person that can beat it.


But as for the platforms, why would i make them huge if they are on top of water? and the water area isnt even that big.

But what should i do about the platforms?

Those platforms had ice textures, but no ice, make the platform big, with ice. Just because one person can beat it, does not mean the whole community can, and if this is also the first special stage, then its way too hard. The water was large enough for me to get lost in BTW.

One question though, how would you make a sector slippery? Like the mystic realm ice levels?

There's no anger, there. If you confuse serious with anger, well...

Not that many people have played it, and all of the SRB2 players are not only on this board. There are many, many others that probably don't really know or care that this place exists.

But im sorry ash, im going to lower the ring limit to 600 but im going to take out a few rings.

I can see it now:
Ring Limit: 600
Total Rings: 617 or some other random number that isn't a lot

That's your problem. The platforms are too small because you made your own limit to the water. They could be bigger if the water was bigger. Also, the platforms aren't really on the water. They're just pillars that are a few units above it.

But what should i do about the platforms?

I'd say scrap the entire map, and try doing something other than Special Stage maps to hone your skills, rather than jumping the gun like every other person that wants to make "the awsumest lvl pack evar".

Good o'l slap in the face with a wiki link.

 

[xxBeanGirl420xx]

This link is better; I think it's pointless because I feel the wiki links are just being ignored at this point.

Ok. This isn't good.

1) Icy
2) Extremely hard
3) Horrible music choice
4) Annoying water hazard
5) cramped caves.

4/10

Also, I beat it, but you really think alot of people did?

Hmm, let's see what kind of levels you've made so far: An emerald start, a boss level, and a special stage. Now I can't force you what to make, but I strongly suggest you start making actual single player levels. You know, like ones with enemies, an ending sector, multiple pathways, etc. Making the types of levels you have been making will not help your experience at all.
Now about this map, it kinda stinks. Like Ash said, I think you should just trash this wad (but not the idea). I have never seen a special stage look like this, and I must say that the texture set your using is quite a cool choice.
What I would do is make more levels, (not emerald starts, special stages, or boss levels,) then get more experience. And then start working on the level pack, because the levels that you have are less than mediocre right now.
