Just registered to this site, thought i post a vid of my first track i actually put some effort in. Would love to have you people play it and give me some feedback on it since my ****ty first track has more people playing than this one :/. Still need to get used to the whole editor. I made two earlier tracks, but those didn't take as much time as this one did.
I made a vid, but fraps hates my PC since there are random slowdowns and the whole thing looks a bit darkerused some correction tools op YT to fix the darkness). Here's a link though:
You can find the track by searching for my username on uPlay (which i can't change, unfortunately): GimmeMoney
Or just search by track name: The docks
If anyone can make a better video, i would appreciate it as well!
Have fun.
Difficulty: Medium
Length: ~2 minutes
I went to play this, but sadly it was way too dark in most of the track. From what i could see, looks really well made, but i quit in the middle because of the darkness.![]()
Is it really that dark? I'm playing on a TV, so it might be worse on a monitor.. If so, i can change it.Originally Posted by soad667
I played some 2.0 version yesterday and it started much better, but as you progress it gets darker again. The atmosphere is cool (docks, darkness, have some... lovecraftian feeling), but at some places i couldn't see clearly the obstacles. So i caught myself crashing over and over again on really basic obstacles.
I redid it again, could you try again please?Originally Posted by soad667
Sure, will do later when i play again.
Hey man I played the V2. Much better!!!! Still a few negatives though. Some places still seemed to dark to see where I was going. I liked how you made the stairs part a lot more managable but I still don't recommend using stairs as an obstacle. I am really glad that you listened to all the feedback. Even put the correct difficulty label! Feedback is what will help you improve. Trust me, my first track over on the 360 version was way worse than the first version of the docks. I have improved substantially through feedback from people along the way. Keep at it man.
Thanks man, can you point out the places that are too dark? This could help me in the future, i'll also stop with the stairs lol.Originally Posted by ConfusedMuscles
Yeah the V2 was only possible thanks to this forum!
Just played the latest version and it was awesome. Now everything is actually visible, without getting too bright to lose the atmosphere. Quite enjoyable track.
Only thing i didn't like: The floating platform where you have to backflip on. Usually i get alienated by floating stuff, when there is no "fantasy" theme supporting them, but i ignored it in your map since everything else was so great.
Thanks for creating, keep it up.![]()
Thanks, appreciate it. Yeah i actually wasn't planning on that platform either, but the original idea didn't work so i had to create something simple instead of it.Originally Posted by soad667
