Help Making Obby Requested. Any Suggestions?

[Gamer795_PG]

So, I’m making an obby-type map, and I need ideas. I have Level 1 as 3D printers, and Level 2 as Shields. Any ideas of traps or any other level ideas? Thanks a lot! Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

Can I see your gameplay?

[Gamer795_PG]

So the normal ones are solid and the infected ones are fall through if you get what I’m saying

Lamps, lanterns, any sort of lighting object. (ooh and I like that you can fall through the infected ones)

[mysz]

I… have a LOT to say.

Be WAY more diverse with your props

Also don’t go in the same direction with them, try to make it different then just straight up and forward

I would give you more advice, but I’ll let mysz cook

[Gamer795_PG]

Oh yeah, good idea! I’ll make that after everyone else says something, then I’ll make it. I forgot to mention, if you suggest a level idea and I do it, you get credit for it. What do you want ur credits name to be, Here_to_help?

[Gamer795_PG]

Ok, I’ll do that. Anything else?

First of all, I don’t like how most of your “jumps” are just the same jumps over and over again. It’s repetitive and it’ll drive the player mad (I’m exaggerating lol, this isn’t that bad but it could definitely use some more freshness). You can also see that most of the jumps are around the same length, which also isn’t very good because that adds to repetitiveness. The final staircase is cool, I don’t know if it was added for decoration purposes, as a transition, or as gameplay, so I’ll consider the three cases below:

• Decoration: It’s okay
• A Transition: It’s fine
• Gameplay: Way too easy and repetitive

Ok, thanks for the suggestions @mysz !

Uhhh…

Also, I would also suggest you have more variation in your props and jumps. Keep the same theme throughout, but change up the props some. Here is a guide for different kinds of jumps:

Wiki Catalog for Types of Platforming Jumps

Check this when editing. Make sure to uncheck when finished: (Do not check for fun ) | Introduction: Never (gonna) Give Up Platformer Gameplay | Many games in discovery these days are platformers. 99% of them have horrible, repetitive gameplay. Some of them are just visual, but come on, that doesn’t give the player’s ATTENTION SPAN much to work with. Most of the jumps are just distance jumps, two props or pieces of terrain that you jump from and land on. BORING. If you’re going to make …

Ok, thanks for the guide here_to_help, that’ll really help! (no pun intended)

[Gamer795_PG]

What should I name the level?

An Actual Guide to Making Platformers

Wow. Another platforming guide. Seems generic, doesn’t it? Well, I’ve been searching through platformer related guides here, and noticed that most of them are either for something very specific or not actual guides. Sooooo since I’m insane, I decided to write my own! Gameplay 1. Start Simple All platformer maps should start relatively simple or “easy.” If the very first jump of your map is very complex or difficult, people will be less likely to continue playing. 2. Scale Difficulty Properl…

Common mistakes that can make your platformer map less enjoyable. (And how to fix them)

Read these. They’ll give you some ideas, and stuff that isn’t recommended

[Here_to_help]

I don’t really care. It’s your map. My main concern is that you make the map a little bit more diverse, fun, and attractive. And thanks for using my idea.

[Gamer795_PG]

Again, thanks so much for the guide @SirWyWy !

[Gamer795_PG]

Yep! Thank you, @Here_to_help
