Gateway to Hell

I know, so many "Hell" levels! Well, this level isn't entirely about hell, rather the gateway into it.

The model is a picture by European artist Wojciech Voytek Nowakowski, recently passed (Jan. 31st, 2011). I love his work, and wanted to make a memorial to him by recreating one of his pieces, Lord of Hell:

I won't be showing you my progress, because I want the final product to be a surprise. I must say, though, that it's coming along quite nicely. Don't expect it to be out any time soon, I just started and I have school.

Not sure if I want minigames or not. If I do incorporate them, it won't be your typical game. I'm really getting sick of these "trial and error" minigames.

Trial and Error Minis?

Re: Gateway to Hell

I wonder how you will input a non-trial and error minigame stage (that is if you will). Are you stating that it won't be possible to fail in this stage, that you win no matter what?

Anyway, good luck. I hope your effort will turn out to be something new.

Re: Gateway to Hell

There are three types of popular minigames:
Difficult
Confusing
Difficult and confusing

I don't like any of them.

Re: Gateway to Hell

I'd like to see minis that can be solved with logic. I think this is where EX Crew has an advantage; their challenges can always be figured out with a little brain power. Many minis I see now are random jumbles of arrows that require a lot of guessing and trial-and-error to solve, which, from the sound of things, you're going to try and avoid. Awesome. Go for it.

If you want to make this level exceedingly brutal (and also encourage thought before attempting a challenge), I'd suggest a two-tries-per-challenge coin door system.

Looks cool. Can't wait! 1bigsmile1

Ooh, I'm getting flashbacks of Beastly. The picture was great, the minimap...

I'm looking forward to finally seeing what you keep explaining as minigames that aren't trial and error. As far as I can see, there's no such thing. There's an opportunity to earn a lot of rep from me.

I mean we did the best we could. Obviously the lack of colors and shades made it much harder.
