SMWCentral Santa Patches (Second batch!)

Link Thread Closed
It appears Santa left quite a few patches underneath the tree last night! Be sure to review and leave constructive criticism on the level that was made for you. Also, mention whether the level designer deserves the badge or not, as this makes it easier for us to see which designers made removal-log-worthy levels.

If your level is not under the tree, do not fret! Due to users needing extensions for real life complications extreme timezone differences causing a breach in the space-time continuum, your level may be delayed until New Year's day. Please wait patiently!

Hmmm... Nice the first batch of patches is here now! Thank you Santa Claus! :D It seems the person which is making a level for me didn't make it yet. And it seems I was making level for GN. I saw him several times and I remember he was pretty nice. His request was great and I enjoyed making the level very much. I hope you like "Nighttime Adventures", GN! :) Merry Christmas to everyone! :D
...Huh?
I'm a bit disappointed to see my level not ready, but at least there's time to do a good job on it! :) I gave out a pretty tough theme, so I guess the extension is for the best.


I hope Masterlink enjoys my level even if I did rush it a bit. :D
Merry christmas to everyone who got their patches! :)



I should point out that it's a little obvious who made the 'Anonymous' IPS Patches, as it's from the user's file bin.
I'm kinda disappointed not seeing my level done, but otherwise I hope it will get finished^^

My level participant is Riolu180. If I recall correctly a nice and cool guy here on SMWC (and the creator of the most evil level possible in a "serious" hack ^^ )(Pokèmon Fans Forever!)

I hope you are going to enjoy it!

Edit: Yeah the Anonymus Part is kinda fail if you upload it in your own FileBin
On the one hand, I'm having trouble dodging that Boulder Generator. On the other hand, I've noticed it is more sequential than random (It always starts with the same few boulders and I always get hit by each of them). Am I supposed to use the Top Secret Area?

Also, I'm a terrible Mario player... :(

EDIT: Other than that, I like the atmosphere that the level has, so good job on that. (I just kinda wish I could see the rest of it... #w{:<} )
Currently balancing work and hobbies. Also I've got a job now.

This, basically. Also my guess was way off. I hope 19 screens is good enough, and I hope Mrgoomba909 likes the level I made him. It was sorta rushed, so if it lacks at the end, that's why. Sorry.(also, JDC, that's not true. Lucas uploaded them to his own file bin afterwards for the ones who were anonymous, as you'll see if you actually check
e: well, some of them, anyway
e2: all but the last one
e3: all fixed now)
soundcloud / bandcamp / twitter / buy/stream my EP / buy my touhou music / buy my NEW album!!!

Lucas edited his post after I said that, so my earlier post was incorrect
I was really upset I missed the deadline buy a couple of hours v.v
Finally returning to this awesome hobby!
I think it would be better if what the person requested is next to the ips, so people who are testing know what the person wanted originally.

As well, have a merry Christmas, i enjoyed my level and i hope neocarld923 enjoys his level :D
Later.
I guess mine is not there. I guess I have to wait until new years.
YOUR layout has been removed.

Oh my lord, thank you SO much to the guy who made my level, I haven't beat it yet, but I am so happy with it. Sure the palletes could stand to be a bit better, but its amazing, thanks.



Also, I am done with my level, except I can't get the music working, thats what made me miss this deadline, oy.

Storm Kyleis made my level:

“Ghostly Volcano”

My idea was:
“I'd like a level that puts a ghost house inside a volcano, meaning lots of lava along with
creepy critters together in one level”


Storm Kyleis did a magnificent job with this idea and created just the kind of level I was hoping for.

The atmosphere is amazing and I love the variety of palettes used.

The length was good and didn’t drag on or feel to fall short.

The dark rooms provide an interesting challenge where you must be patient and move with extreme caution to survive, nice addition.

Then there were the freaky looking enemies! They certainly fit the atmosphere of the level and gave it an even creepier feel.

I did wonder about the one koopa that you could carry around at one of the doors. Not sure if it was for effect or if it holds some secret. I’ll go back later and check again.

My only criticism would be some of the enemy placement. I got blind sighted a few times, mainly by the flying enemies. Also quite a few enemies will just walk of the ledges making them a very low threat.

However that doesn’t take too much away from the level and I still ended up loving it. Great job!

Definitely give this guy a badge!

Same here. Looks like my recipient will have to wait until New Years to see my level.

As for the level that was made for me... considering who was making the it, I was both surprised and relieved he didn't try to toss in shoddy Touhou referrence, so that's a big plus. Overall a good level, though some spots were a slightly misleading in terms of what was solid and what was a ledge and at one point, I walked through a cloud ramp. So yeah, Merry Christmas!

And now I have to go out of town for the day.
My level was made by MajorasMask9, I'll post the review here.

When I saw the name Scalding Desert I though "I don't recall asking for a desert, is this really for me?", but after getting through some screens, I realized that in fact it was my level. My request had many possibilities, as all I asked for was a fire themed level with ghosts, and Scalding Desert had both. Although I have to say I expected something a bit more fiery and boiling, but the my request said it could be “anything that goes through your mind”, so I can't blame you; besides, it was an original idea. It would have been nice if you made it a nighttime level tough. I like how you made those ghost podoboos, by the way.

Design-wise, the level had a couple of flaws, but overall it was good. I like how you combined the moving sand with the boos to make a hard-to-pass obstacle.

All in all, the level wasn't exactly what I expected, as I said before, but it was nice and original, so I'm not disappointed at all. I say you should get the badge.
My level was made by Illusion115, so i'll post the review here as well.

Overall it is what i asked for. although there were a few elements missing that would have made the level more enjoyable, i say he did well with what i gave him. However, it feels he took the request and made a level from it, without adding any of his creativity into it, which i was hoping i'll see. It was a good level in all, but it feels a tad uninspired. I, unfortuanly, do not think he should get a badge, but i think it was a good level for a hacker with a lot of potential.

Don't take this as a bash, i say you should simply just try to make levels more creative and personalized.

4.5 6/10 imo

EDIT: i asked for a vertical castle level
Later.
The concept for my level was a world one swamp castle.

It was very visually appealing and started out how i imagined it would. There was a bit of item hauling but well executed and and camera started at odd spots when exiting a pipes. Overall it was what i ask for and i was please with everything.7/10. It's badge worthy.

I'm not really one to review other hacks, but it's basically what I asked for. There were some graphical glitches, but I'm not going to hold it against the guy because I saw he said he was having trouble with my request since it asked for sprites from different tilesets. I didn't like the aesthetics of the cement blocks in the water, but overall I thought it was fun to play through.

Not sure of you're experience level in making hacks, but if you're just starting out, this is about similar to what my first levels were like. There's definitely a lot of room for improvement.

But I still give you an A for effort :).

DANG it why did I not think of this! I spent forever trying to figure out how I could make that seem more like a ghost level, and night would have been perfect for that.

I was pretty rushed in making that level in general, but I'm glad you like it!
I'm somewhat disappointed that I didn't make the first deadline - but I hope it's okay for whoever is receiving my level.

Original idea: A nighttime glacier level that uses line guides.

Oh well, I see Teo17 made a level for me, and he sure as hell did not disappoint (: Everything I asked for, wrapped in a nice batch of graphics, a good atmosphere and nice palette work. The level design was very varied, challenging but fair, and most importantly fun.

Pretty much the only issue I had was that the second section felt somewhat out of place compared to the other two, due to it using vanilla SMW graphics. The backgrounds in all three segments were very nice to look at and fitting, though, and added a lot to the atmosphere.

I was satisfied with playing this. I also recorded a savestateless, blind run through the level, too, which can be seen here.

I'm all for Teo17 getting a badge for making this level. :

Edit: Because number ratings are always cool: 9/10
