[quartz frost]

Hi

This is like 20 nodes away from least amount of nodes in a level

Shortest I found is Wild Ride

[echo pasture]

oh nice

[quartz frost]

Nvmd

Ramp City has 81

[proper token]

not even close

eliminating

[quartz frost]

I meant race

[proper token]

30 nodes iirc

[proper token]

oh alr

[quartz frost]

Then I realized other ones

[proper token]

yeah ramp city has the least i know of

[plucky tartan]

five platforms

actually prob not

[limber sand]

what about yarble's 3 nodes elim fr

[proper token]

decoration makes it more

[plucky tartan]

yeah i just realized that

[proper token]

i optimized it to 2 nodes earlier today

[echo pasture]

send link

@supple solstice i would love a review
this is on the account that observatory is on btw

[quartz frost]

Don’t say that

He knows

[echo pasture]

whatever

just for clarity

[supple solstice]

Too short, also definitely needs more skill parts

[echo pasture]

okay

[echo pasture]

update: we are almost done with making this level longer

will prob be done tomorrow or today

[echo pasture]

<@&1178134658857308212> me, bear. and goobdasher have finished the level again

we would love a review thats from a non-biased lc member

[quartz frost]

@echo pasture updated level

Update 1 includes the following:

First screenshot: I added the spikes and floor so if you fall you don’t fall all the way to the beginning.

Second screenshot: Fixed teleported by copying and pasting the bottom gravity field over 2 times.

Third screenshot: Make this part stand out less since before it looked ugly.

@echo pasture

I would like to change this obstacle or make it better since rn I don’t really like it

I’m getting off for now

[echo pasture]

@quartz frost i think that part could use a little reworking but not that much

[quartz frost]

Ya it’s just annoying to speedrun

[quartz frost]

@tulip hearth can you pls check this out, me and KingHenrik spent a lot of time and got a working teleporter on this level. Review would be appreciated but you can vote if you already like

[tulip hearth]

Yeah for sure, sorry for my inactivity recently

I will try to tonight

[quartz frost]

All good

[quartz frost]

Thanks

I think both me and king henrik learned new things while making this level

[compact gyro]

First sight

• there's not much spots i can over skill players in
• that place where you grab a checkpoint then die and respawn completely somewhere else is actually creative and I've never seen it before it's awesome i got confused for a second i was like where am i lol
• gonna need more polishing and arrows

Gonna give the full review in a couple

[quartz frost]

Ok thx

[quartz frost]

For the overskill part we tried making some parts harder than others so you can overtake players but we can rework some parts if you would like

[echo pasture]

for overskilling players we wanted the level to be mostly fair for all players but there are a few shortcuts to take but mostly you just need to take unique routes and optimize your run during the game but i will try to find better ways to implement overskilling into the level

[compact gyro]

Ight review time

First you guys need a lot of arrowing

Could do this in here as well just cause why not lol

Arrowing is important even if you don't think they matter

Add a gravity field on this wall just in case someone falls they won't need to climb

Add a sign here just so people won't get confused

Add a spikes platform in here

You have too many of those empty ends idk if you noticed

Here too

Could lock it instead of the spikes platform but eh up to you

Anyway the lvl is good if you add a little more good obstacles and polish designs ill vote for it

[quartz frost]

I don’t want to lock it because then the goobers don’t feel as open

[compact gyro]

Yeah ik I've speedran it still would appreciate if there is some sort of special obstacle or something

[compact gyro]

Yeah up to you but you gotta add that spiked platform in that case cause you never know when goobers dash you

And if you don't have your dash you're just screwed

[quartz frost]

I’m adding arrows rn

[quartz frost]

I’m not gonna add this

[compact gyro]

Yeah that's fine

[quartz frost]

Does this part really need a spikes part it’s not a big fall

[compact gyro]

It actually is

[quartz frost]

You can do a shortcut to just get back

[compact gyro]

If someone dashes you to here and you already wasted your dash

You'd fall this whole way up

[echo pasture]

he was talking about the other fall

not that one

[compact gyro]

Which? He tagged the last one tho

[echo pasture]

oh i just realized

he meant the spike platform in that screenshot

not the locking in and falling part

@compact gyro

[compact gyro]

.

This one?

[echo pasture]

no

the one in the screenshot he tagged

[quartz frost]

This one I meant

Mb

[echo pasture]

this one

that spike platform

[quartz frost]

Ya

[compact gyro]

Ooo yeah that one wasn't meant to be there sorry i just created it to move it down after i remove the ice wall

[quartz frost]

Oh ok

[compact gyro]

It will block the shortcut if it's placed there don't worry

[echo pasture]

i gotta go see the minecraft movie rn but ill be back in like 2 hours maybe

[quartz frost]

Btw is the wait sign necessary

@compact gyro ?

[compact gyro]

Yep first time i got there i kept trying to jump up cause i didn't know what will happen and i kept messing the spikes everytime i jump

Just so it won't be much confusing

In all my reviews trust me i have a good reason for anything i tell you to change unless i specifically tell you it ain't necessary

[quartz frost]

Ok

Done

[quartz frost]

Can you check out by level now?

[compact gyro]

In a bit

[quartz frost]

@stray jackal sorry for bothering you but can you check out this level

[quartz frost]

Waiting

[echo pasture]

@compact gyro are there any more things you want us to implement or do you think this is good as is?

i am open to adding more changes

[quartz frost]

@frosty stirrup we need review and since no one responding I want your opinion

@grave whale I also want yours

[quartz frost]

@wild drift Ik you don’t review but I would like to have your opinion on this because why not, and because you can vote

[wild drift]

Ask me tomorrow and I could check it out

im busy right now im sorry

[quartz frost]

All good

[quartz frost]

Ok thank you

[frosty stirrup]

Definitely

Wait a moment I needa finish my breakfast

[quartz frost]

I just finished my dinner😭

[grave whale]

I've never seen a certified teleport level, maybe...

I also did level teleport but someone said...

[grave whale]

You can replace the arrow with a danger sign so people know in advance that the saw blade is in front of the sign (Same as the picture)

This part may seem a bit difficult for beginners.

You can add a downward gravity field background so players can detect and see it better

You can move this entire area up 1 space so new players can get in without needing to gain momentum easily

Add traps near the bottom so the player doesn't have to fall all the way to the bottom which will waste time when falling

You can add traps here

Also this level is pretty cool but there are some obstacles that are a bit hard for newbies, a bit cramped (I think it was 8 players at first) with 16 players, you can make them spacious for players to enjoy your level comfortably and best

[quartz frost]

We can remove some spikes

@echo pasture I’ll edit when I get home

[echo pasture]

okay

[limber sand]

sub 50

i think u can do a cycle skip if ur fast enough

[echo pasture]

you def can ive been close before

[limber sand]

🫃

[quartz frost]

@wild drift a day late but can you check this out?

[wild drift]

I’m working today sorry

[quartz frost]

All good

[limber sand]

Day ay arrrrrrr kay

That means dkar is daycare

[limber sand]

Garble nart

[echo pasture]

thats bullying

give me the wr back

[quartz frost]

@wild drift this a good time?

[quartz frost]

@compact gyro anything else? Or can you vote?

[compact gyro]

I'll do a final review when im home

[quartz frost]

Ok thank you

[quartz frost]

@stray jackal can review?

[stray jackal]

add some walls on the side so that if you fall off then you dont keep on falling into the void

change the elevators to jump zones cuz being pulled up by it when you have a ton of momentum into the spikes is just bs

and please do not keep this in the level

and idk just add some more deco

the grass and bg blocks are decent but because the level takes place in the sky it just looks, barren.

[quartz frost]

Wdym, what’s wrong with it

[stray jackal]

one its a cycle, but two the teleporting thing is banned

[quartz frost]

Why is it banned

@echo pasture how we gonna finish this

[stray jackal]

idk ask typixel, but there was a level with this gimmick before and it go uncertified because of the teleporting

you can just move the entire level down

[stray jackal]

like i only added a few things here but the negative space is filled up so much better

[quartz frost]

Got it

Thank you for the advice

[plucky tartan]

what was the level name?

[stray jackal]

https://gooberdash.winterpixel.io/?play=e63f2dd8-d3a5-48f3-afd5-7a10b028d920

[plucky tartan]

how did this level even get certified in the first place 😭

[echo pasture]

based on this level i think the teleporting thing is banned because nobody knew how to use it properly and it was all about random timing as our is just you wait for 3s and then you go right up and you dont have to do anything

[echo pasture]

@stray jackal check out level now

[quartz frost]

@plucky tartan Review

[plucky tartan]

you should make this one of the main obstacles in the level it’s the coolest obstacle in this level imo and you basically just go over the side of it

remove this spike it’s destroys people playing on phone

[quartz frost]

But that too easy then

I could add disappearing block

[plucky tartan]

can you either delete or make this cycle earlier in the level cause it kinda ruins speed runs

[quartz frost]

I could make it go faster

[plucky tartan]

okay

[quartz frost]

That all?

[plucky tartan]

you should add more background blocks

decoration in general

not in all the parts but some

[quartz frost]

Ok

[quartz frost]

I think it’s fine because if you get sucked in it become sin obstacle, but you can avoid

[plucky tartan]

add arrow here

[plucky tartan]

no

[quartz frost]

Idk how to add more with all these nodes already

[quartz frost]

Done

[plucky tartan]

you should do something like this

ignore how off center i made it

[quartz frost]

Hmm

I could do that

[quartz frost]

@echo pasture I’ll make some changes but I don’t think we should change the spike and floor part

[plucky tartan]

@quartz frost

review this level

[echo pasture]

he helped make it

[plucky tartan]

fr

[echo pasture]

yeah

[quartz frost]

I think I’m some parts are over decorated

[echo pasture]

update @plucky tartan @stray jackal

[quartz frost]

@echo pasture Typixel gave the heads up you can keep the teleported

[echo pasture]

nice

[quartz frost]

@echo pasture want review?

[echo pasture]

yeah sure @quartz frost

[violet iron]

how is the teleportation thing allowed

didn't he ban it because some players don't want extra deaths

[quartz frost]

It’s allowed

[violet iron]

on goobernut's race it was rejected because the goal was to die

[quartz frost]

Typixel said we could use it

[violet iron]

damn lucky fr

[plucky tartan]

it was rejected cause it was over decorated

[quartz frost]

First screenshot: I don’t like this at all, you over decorated everything. I would remove the grass under the block you spawn in.

Second screenshot: I would remove the grass on disappearing.

Third screenshot: I don’t think you need grass on all sides. I would keep the grass only on top.

Fourth screenshot: I would remove grass off of disappearing.

Fifth screenshot: I don’t like the music blocks in it and how over decorated it is.

Sixth screenshot: So much grass also I would remove the music blocks.

Seventh screenshot: This part is too cramped in my opinion.

Eight screenshot: This part might be a bit cramped too.

Ninth screenshot: I don’t like all the grass underneath and on sides, the extra floor on side isn’t really necessary. Also I would remove music blocks.

Tenth screenshot: I don’t like how much grass I would change back to old.

Eleventh screenshot: Remove music blocks.

Twelfth screenshot: I don’t like music blocks.

@echo pasture overall I have a love/hate relationship with this level. I loved the old version but you tried to hard and over decorated way too much to the point that it looks ugly imo and I wouldn’t want it in game. This is why I quit working on it.

[frosty stirrup]

You are also in the builder alliance

bro

[quartz frost]

Ik

What does that have to do with this

[frosty stirrup]

Oh yeah

silly me

[quartz frost]

Anyways goodnight cya

[echo pasture]

<@&1178134658857308212>

review pls

[hot pulsar]

get sent to the shadow realm you pinged lc more than once in the same thread fr

[echo pasture]

ohhh

[hot pulsar]

jk its ok

[cosmic wren]

sleeping on Circular World, only 2200

[echo pasture]

could i get a review on this level?

[hot pulsar]

i think some of the transitions are too sudden and confusing and its pretty much impossible to sightread on your first ever playthroug

[echo pasture]

could you care to elaborate slightly more with an example

[hot pulsar]

like the transition to the parts with the spike on the floors is weird and im pretty sure people will die there more than once

and the part with the boxes that move in a square pattern is unexpected

[echo pasture]

this part?

[echo pasture]

and this?

[echo pasture]

@hot pulsar should be fixed now

[hot pulsar]

i think the whole area is kinda like a visual overload and feels like one big jump zone and maybe a gravity field could make it better to understand while keeping the difficulty

still think the transition is sorta unflowy cause the parts before i zoomed through but this part i had to react fast and stop

[granite thunder]

isnt checkpoint teleportation banned?

[hot pulsar]

i dont think theres an explicit rule that says you can't do that, but its not preferred

only thorns and the coffin have that mechanic i think

[granite thunder]

🥴

[bold depot]

the coffin is basically all about checkpoint teleportation.

[hot pulsar]

it didnt survive long

[bold depot]

fr

thats prob why it isnt prefered

[echo pasture]

this one was cleared by typixel about a year ago when the level was first starting to be made
