- You can only post about levels you found or pimping your own. ALL other discussions needs to be the official one ( https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=649430 ). This thread is all about the levels!

- The selection of levels featured in this opening post are with ~1000 plays or less for the most part. It's about giving exposure to those great levels that nobody plays. You however can post about any level you want.

- When you post the quality levels you found or that you made in the thread, try to respect the format: (still, don't shy away from posting if you can't make fonts like that)

Platformer Pandemonium! / Korghano

A level made in the beta by Chris_C I believe, and remains one of my favourites. Classic old school platforming and a solid art style cemented this as a great level back then, and it still is now. Its criminally underplayed, and someone even stole and republished it (so you know its good)! Ranger X had a little trouble finding it, so this one might be caught in server limbo, but I know I can still play it and recommend it! Look for Korghano's version, not the thieved one. He deserves your hearts so he will make a sequel!

The Domain / DrPacifist

This level really blew me away. Its a must play if only for the ingenious contraptions and platforming construct solutions! The aesthetic is wonderful with a aztec temple theme, but you will say 'wow' at the final rotating room puzzle. Pretty hardcore level, but recommended!

th_11rq05x.jpg

k04x29.png

Puzzlin Platformer / Miguel_Gordo

Another great level for looking at how to approach simple platform mechanics! The visuals are a bit simplistic, but the level design is more than there. This one is certainly for hardcore platformers only, with a very tricky Moving Spike Column gauntlet. Enjoy the challenge.

Little Big Satan / Dread9

A great themed level, hopefully not up for moderation for featuring everyone's favourite fallen angel, this is a very solid adventure level with an interesting use of "Secret Stickers" that denote a hidden area or mechanism in the area for more points and object prizes. A very solid boss encounter rounds out this fiery visually adept level.

Thrilling opening, macabre setting, and big bosses.

Pixel Animation Demo 1/Clipper_US (aided by Modulos)

Using a full fledged LED screen, Modulos and I have created a method that is suitable for animation. The pic below only shows one frame...the full walk animation is in there. This is just the first test there will be more.

16x16 screen this time. Can't quite get full animation at this resolution (only 3 frames, and a lot of cheating), but still looks impressive.

Some really worthwhile reads if you're looking to create

The Platformer Primer

Little Big Planet will turn everyone into a platform game designer - however, it might not make them a good game designer.

So here is a primer on platform games I've put together for anyone who wants to make their game a little better or, more importantly, a little fairer. Enjoy!

Platform Design - http://mrbossdesign.blogspot.com/2008/10/p...mer-primer.html

How to create the greatest Boss Battle (and why not to do it!)

Here is my 2008 GDC talk (sans humorous animations) - "How to create the greatest Boss Battle (and why not to do it!) This will make more sense with the audio from the talk - which will presumably be posted at gdcradio. I'll post a direct link when and if it shows up.

Boss Design - http://mrbossdesign.blogspot.com/2008/02/h...battle-and.html

I'll add more levels to go through later as well.

K, so published my own. Not much to it, not really all that challenging, but it takes some patience. Jist is, you try to get into a club, the bouncer ain't havin' it, so you have to ride up to the roof, and slide down in. Score bubbles, pullies, club lighting, and groupies all collide. It's called "In Da Club".

Lots of pullies.

Well, lots of very long pullies.

Nothing phallic, tho.

Even a random hidden shout to neowin ;)

Kinda wish we could use imported music, but that would conflict with copyrights n'at. :(
