-> will add more items (including a super-powerup located in a secret area)
-> remake the snow texture or find a better one

Very nice Flexor, although I must say I preferred the version with the bespin type sky. THat was better than this dark, dreary sky I think. Pretty, nevertheless though.

yeah, those are all 16 bit textures. And I didn't put in the rain cog. It generated the particles from the sky surface, which happends to be 10 miles above the player. it just didn't work. besides, it looks fine the way it is now.

Just think of it as a dream...it doesn't have to make sense.

Looking good as usual (still can't wait to see what you do after DT though). [http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif]

I'd say he either needed more/dispersed throughout the level instead of clumped like that or none at all.

I'm sorry to say I do at least 90% of the work with fruity. The rest I do with modtracker and goldwave.

It's easy really. You just take a large cube or octagon shaped sector and throw a bunch of 3dos in it. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/biggrin.gif]

The crystals need to blend with the ground textures more...easiest way I can think of would be to just make them less brilliant, but you could add crystal veins running through you textures.

Other than that, you're so cool.

well, i had the hounor of being the first to play this level, and... IT OWNS!!

it is way better than the screen shots. it realy rocks.

its got a scret area, that actualy has a invinsable shild (lasts 15 seconds), and the jump pads have a new texture.

also, the crystals, actually look rather good in game.

graphicaly its no match for some DT levels, but the feeling you get in this level owns. its like being in wales, on a cold rainy day, BUT in the clouds of a gaint floating heap of rocks and catwalks.

its superb, good job flex [http://forums.massassi.net/html/wink.gif]
