selfdelmer Posted January 26 Report Share Posted January 26 Hi All, After doing a remake of Manic Miner in GameMaker, I thought I'd use the same engine to create some new levels. Please see the attached zip (just extract and run) of the progress so far. Only 7 levels at the moment and the game will crash after you complete level 7. Any ideas on what the additional levels could be perhaps? Regards, SDelmer. RetroWilly.zip JianYang and jetsetdanny 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JianYang Posted January 26 Report Share Posted January 26 Congratulations on that level design. That Pong level looks easy and then I keep dying and dying. Some real Matthew Smith vibe there. The second level (I'm trying to avoid spoilers) looked a bit harder and was a little easier but not by much. On level 3 now. I noticed once that I clearly overlapped with one of the guardians. Could be intentional and/or a nod to the source material. I'm just mentioning it. I'm pretty impressed. Any chance you could make native Android and (GNU-)Linux builds? It works fine with Wine and I might try Winlator, but native versions would be really great. I'll let you know if I make it through the game. jetsetdanny 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JianYang Posted January 26 Report Share Posted January 26 The promised update. I've made it through. Thank you for the infinite lives. I'd probably still be fighting level 3 or 4 without them. One small criticism in-I think-level 4 "...(again)" the guardians seem to be moving a bit too randomly. Sometimes you get two right behind each other without a chance to jump both at the same time or jump between them and make it out again. I understand that that's true to the source material, but it feels a bit off in a Manic Miner game. It was all still great fun. 2 hours ago, selfdelmer said: Any ideas on what the additional levels could be perhaps? Possible inspirations for more levels: Adventure, Lemmings, Ant Attack, 3D Monster Maze, (New) Rally X, Tetris, Space Harrier, Sonic I have no ideas how these levels would look, but I would be interested to see your take on them. jetsetdanny 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
selfdelmer Posted January 26 Author Report Share Posted January 26 Hi JianYang, yes I may tweak level 4 a bit. Thanks for the suggestions. BTW press f2 to jump levels if you want to. JianYang and jetsetdanny 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
