SWITCHAROO!! (Part One) by v0rtex2002


A showcase level for comphermc's Custom Switch Design contest.

Well, comphy was limited on space, so he asked that one of the winners step up and put together a showcase level for the switch designs in his latest contest. I accepted the challenge and then quickly got carried away, as I am wont to do. I started creating a full-fledged level and before long, I realized that I was not going to have enough thermo for all of the switches in my grandiose plans. So I decided to split it the same way as his contest:

• Part One: Free-form, anything goes switches.
• Part Two: Switches designed for possible inclusion in comphermc's sequel to his Interstellar Infiltration level.

This level is for Part One
(ahem - with two notable exceptions... I goofed and included wa_delmaw's "Part Two" switches here before realizing that I actually had three switches from him/her - sorry).

Here are some screen shots - I hope you enjoy playing it as much as I did creating it!






There is an optional gallery with prizes of all the creator's switches, and lots of secrets to hunt for too! Good luck!!

Good job vortex. Played it earlier and was very impressed. It's certainly an above average 'showcase level'.

Haha - Thanks! Yeah... I got a bit carried away. But oh well... it was fun!

That looks really cool, I can't wait to play it.

WOW this looks like a really cool level I need to play it later

I played this last night (under an alt PSN because I didn't realize you had opened it) - very impressive! I loved the mechanics - everything felt "tight". Even though the idea was a switch showcase, it played like a full level - lots of secrets and things to do. Nice job!

Hey-

I played last night, it was by far, the best (and also longest) showcase level that I had ever played. It had everything that a regular platforming level would have, I look forward to part two.

I rated it .

Ah, so you're C12343231283183?

@Vortex: played it last night, fun stuff! Well, except for [spoiler]the Rube Goldberg room.[/spoiler]

But we already discussed that! Also, I love free prizes (that are worth keeping/re-using)!

Yeah - I've implemented a fix there. Once the "button" is pushed in, a timer will start. If the RGM doesn't complete, the door will still open after a few seconds.

Also, I love free prizes (that are worth keeping/re-using)!

Glad you liked it! Thanks for the feedback. Can I offer F4F on anything?

[Blackfalcon]

Looking forward to playing this! =D

I had a run through Vortex, the way you transitioned from the techy environment to the stone one was fantastic, loved that!

Great level. Especially for a showcase. xD The switches were really cool. Great job. Nice visuals, I usually hate levels that use dark matter but this one was great.
I hated the mascot. xD
Mmmm nice job, loved it.



Can you leave feedback on Farewell Ruins of the Moon: Chapter One by AbstractSam? Thanks.

OK - I will get to your level tonite - thanks.

Dark matter? If you found visible DM please tell me where. There should be none.

Oh my bad, I meant to say that black rubber stuff. DX
