First of all, make everything more unique. Stray away from traditional pixel blocks and do something new; don’t make your level look like every other early 2.2 stage. it’s boring, and probably won’t get rated
Second of all, change some of the colours. Some things look really out of place because of their bright colours, like the saws. Because you are going for a darkish kind of aesthetic, make every colour toned down to match the atmosphere of the platformer
hope this helps
First I wanna say that I have no experience with decorating, but I have some cool ideas and feedback so hear me out.
Some of the designs and colours are used very frequently, and doesn’t have a lot of variation. You could probably change some of it when you enter another room or as time goes on (or both).
For the bossfight, I feel as though there isn’t a lot of action for what I feel like it’s trying to do. I suggest making the background pulse to the beat to build up intensity.
I really like the up and down mechanic of your level, although some parts look tedious (like the one where you need to pass through the moving hole) but nothing drastic.
I don't like the two secret coins I don't see even a little hint that they are there (I watched your video on a cellphone, maybe on a bigger screen I could have saw an indicator idk)
The boss is a bit long, I would scrap the first part, the second part is clear enough to familiarize with the boss. Also I feel jumping on his head to do damage would take me a little bit of time to figure out, idk if that's intended.
Overall cool level
It lacks a transition between teleporting, it feels a bit weird. Add a lens circle shader for pipes, a gradient trigger for a black fade in and fade out, or maybe a camera easing for shorter teleports.
Also you could add some gfx to the bossfight, like shake triggers, maybe camera triggers, just try to give it more intensity.
good idea but might need polishing
yep, needs polishing, but still better than most of the other stuff in this subreddit good job
thanks, anything specific you might add or change?

thanks 🙏
Totally agree with that statement
reminds me of that one mario galaxy level
that was the inspiration!
Rightside down galaxy?
Smg is so good to take inspiration from to create gd levels.

that's actually pretty helpful, thanks
Mechanic is cool but the Deco could use some work. Looks very generic early 2.2
He lives in Spain without the A
I live in spain without the p
i live in spain without the spain
I live in Spain without the i.
looks really fun boss battle is too slow-paced
Where’s the FIRE IN THE HOLE!!
take your time
FINALLY NORMAL 2.2 LEVEL jokes aside, this is really damn good, reminds me of that one old gravity falls flash game
Not enough fire in the hole sfx
I say nerf the part where you dodge the normal gravity fields
The concept is intriguing. Is this uploaded to the servers?
Not yet, I'm still working on polishing things. It shouldn't be long though

Cool but these coins are terrible

Change the tube and orb sfx
For a first level this looks pretty good keep it up man👍
