Hey there,

I was playing the second tutorial level in the campaign and got a message accusing me of cheating.

Specifically, I was on the high speed arrows section, and when I went through them it glitched through the ceiling, teleported me to the top left of the world, quit the level, and gave me this message.

Something with the cheating detection is way off.

Hey everyone,

Continuing with remasters of my old levels, here's Neon Void, originally made in November 2012.

I remade most of the challenges in the level to give it a more « puzzly » nature, and removed a lot of the backtracking.

Not much skill is required to beat this world, everything is simple once you figure out the proper way to do it.

Hey everyone,

Continuing the remastering of my old levels. This time, you get two worlds at once!

Being from the 1980s, I grew up with a Sega Master System, and Sonic Chaos was the first video game I was introduced to ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonic_Chaos ). It's not the best, longest, or most fun game around, but it has a special place in my heart for being the very first game I remember playing.

Thus, when I decided to try and reproduce a video game in Everybody Edits, it felt natural to use Sonic Chaos as a reference.

I first started with a smaller level I called The Sonic Experiment.

It was a simple attempt at reproducing acts 1-1, 2-1, and 6-1 of Sonic Chaos. I made it a basic coin collection quest, which might not have been a good choice in retrospect.

Following this experiment, I felt like I had locked down the idea of how to reproduce Sonic Chaos in an EE world.

The key challenges were:
- Getting the looks right (that part, I got right, put a ton of effort into it)
- Getting enough room for all 6 levels / 18 acts (that required a lot of planning, but I did manage to get every single element of the original game in there other than the emerald challenges)
- Giving it the speed feeling of Sonic (I am not fully satisfied with that, could have done a better job)
- Making it easy yet fun to play (I honestly think I failed that part, coin collection is not exactly super fun, and there is too much backtracking involved)

Once I was done, I was only 50% satisfied with the final product. It looked great, but wasn't fun enough to play. I didn't feel like working on it some more though, as it had taken weeks of effort, so I left it as is.

Here are a few screenshots from the second one if you want to see what it looks like without playing it all:

I learned a lot making these worlds, and I still want to make a better Sonic world in Everybody Edits some day. Maybe.

Have fun !

Hey everyone,

Here's yet another remaster of my old levels.

I found a date on this one: November 8, 2012. I made it around the time background tiles were introduced to EE beta.

The idea was to make a small world based on the idea that less can be more. Simple, but complex.

I didn't change much from the original, only made the dark blue room less frustrating and the red room easier.

The world is very simple and straightforward, it's a series of rooms which each have their own gimmick. Figure out how to pass all seven and you're done.

Hey everyone,

I'm continuing the process of updating all my old worlds.

This is the very first level I did several years ago, when the EE beta was brand new.

Not 100% sure that it's only playable by beta members, but I think so.

As it is oldschool, it uses only the old tilesets. I didn't change the looks at all, to keep that vintage EE feel on the level.

As for the difficulty, I had to rebalance everything since this level is so old that the game physics have been changed since I made it: some of the jumps had become impossible, others too easy.

So, how good are you? Can you beat the hard challenge? Or even the pro one?
