Vanilla Failure - Blind Devil's Final Stand [CANCELED]

Standard

After beginning the pre-reservation stage of Vanilla Failure and being even nearer to the level signups opening stage, I've decided to create this thread, so all the level designers will be able to show off their level progress, to also receive some feedback.

And just not to leave this a little "empty", here go some screenies of my latest levels:

Mud Mines 1:


Yellow Switch Area:


Mud Mines 2:


Mud Haunt:


Yep. Feedback is appreciated.

I'll still be working in the blog, putting my updates there, but from now on, all my showoffs shall be made here.

Also: For those who aren't so much familiar with the hack's story, you might want to check this.

EDIT: Aaaaaaaaaand... for those who wants a Supporter mini-userbar,
this one...

to be specific, here's the code:

Wow, looks awesome. I can't believe that the Yellow Swithc Palace BG is Vanilla.

Definitiely hoping to contribuite a bit on this proyect.
Nice! Where does the "Failure" come in?
So remember kids! If you ever get caught having tosave a princess from a foreign land after getting dragged down a drain pipe, jumping while spinning in a circle can help you greatly by allowing you to jump on spinning saw blades, ghosts, and allow you to control your jump better!

It's a long story short. Before losing my files (I mean everything) on my computer, I had plans on starting a hack called Future Failure (whose explanation would appear on its story). With that problem, the project was gone. "Failure" appears on the title of the actual project because of that. It's a bit senseless though, but I liked it and decided to keep it.
MK2TDS
Well it looks nothing like failure

The Yellow Switch Area BG is made using tiles of the Sunken Ship BG, right? Nice idea!
Is this a team hack now? If so, i'll help out for level designing.
Just so you know, I'm very active on the site anymore like I was before; I'm mainly on Discord now.

Falcon, here's a tip for you: Not all hacks are Team Hacks. So, STOP WITH THIS. NOW!

@Topic: Anyways...

I liked this level so much, and, a question: the stars are on Layer 1 or 2?

If this is a Failure, I don't wanna to know what is a win.

@Falconpunch: This's most likely to become a collab hack. Just wait for when I declare signups are open, and people will be able to claim a level. Now, the only people who are being able to claim levels are the ones I've invited for a pre-reserve via PM. Those are: RaindropDry, Dakress, TheGamer, Mario's Hat and Gamergull.

@JowTH: Stars are on Layer 2. And the castle column is on Layer 1. As Mario's Hat guessed, they come from the Sunken Ship BG tileset.

I'm really loving the combination of tilesets and the MAP16 stuff. The level design is looking fantastic too.
Glad to see feedback here, and happy because you've enjoyed the images!

But now I've just came here to say that I'll not be at home this weekend. This means no updates in the blog and the base ROM during this period. I'll be back Monday (and with my return, school break also ends, holy crap...), announcing a date for the signups' opening!
MK2TDS
Just announcing that level signups will be opened at August 28th (but I can't say the exact time it'll be opened... I don't know how the Javascript code in my blog works... I've only customized, but not coded...)
Welp, check the blog to go with the live countdown.

During this period before, I'll wait for the final pre-reserve PMs and I'll claim some more levels and resources to me.
MK2TDS
Heya Blind devil, would you mind putting me on 1 level and 2 worlds 2 levels for me to make? I REALLY want to help.
Just so you know, I'm very active on the site anymore like I was before; I'm mainly on Discord now.
I'm truly sorry, Falconpunch, but I can't do that. It would be unfair if I let you to get a level, because the others should have to receive the same treatment. As for the pre-reserve case, I've just invited the ones that I'm pretty sure that can do a great work (note that I'm not underrating the rest of people).

Summing up: I wouldn't mind directly, but the others would probably do. If you're interested enough on participating, try to be active and fast when signups open.

I might be sounding a little harsh, but... everything has its right time. Please don't insist - just wait.(That message is brought by me to absolutely no one in particular).
MK2TDS
Please, fill in some levels for me some time. I insist.

Leave some levels for me at least. Keep space in, remember.
Just so you know, I'm very active on the site anymore like I was before; I'm mainly on Discord now.
Falconpunch, check Blind Devil's blog if you want to know how can you reserve a level, and read ALL of it to know which levels have been already claimed.
demanding will get you no where. ლ(ಠ益ಠლ)

Liking what I see, Blind Devil. I love the star bg, as simple as it is.
meh
Thanks, SolidSnake!

Okay, let's carry on.

I've decided to claim and to start a new level. It's Stone Seaside 3, a cave level (note that I haven't updated the spreadsheets yet with the resources I've claimed). This's the first, outside portion of the level.

Image is a bit large to post directly.

And... there go more screenies, showing the Special World Passed palette variation of the OW:





Enjoy!

Ah, blog update. I advise you to read it.
MK2TDS
i guess the snow submap palette need a bit of work, other then that, it is looking pretty good =)

I like those palettes, blind devil. Oh, and i can't use the latest baseROM because i would have to start all over again. Also, you forgot to put me on the blog.
