Archery Range

azurepudding · 2018-11-26 17:32:16

This new set of elemental campaigns has been pretty fun so far! Wasn't expecting a hub world design of 4 in 1. Nice new idea.

I beat Earth campaign, no real problems there. Then water campaign, and now I'm on wind. And.. and.. I just beat Archery Range ( https://everybodyedits.com/games/PWImrW4axua0I ). But I have to ask, why? Why. Why this level? This level of blind leaps leading to death 99% of the time as you slowly learn more and more, except blasting through at warp speed makes this almost impossible in the later sections. You cannot safely study this world like most others. You will be flinging around at incredible speeds, expected to input directional keys at hyper-precise moments. Most of the time, I had no idea what I was doing wrong. I'd press the same keys at seemingly the same spot, and I'd die 80% of the time. The level of precision is so unreal that being off by a millisecond will be your demise. Flip a coin, son, cuz that's basically what'll determine whether you pass this swoop or not.

Experiencing any lag? Each attempt lasts anywhere between 5 to 15 seconds roughly, and if you lag for a mere millisecond, you can kiss your smiley behind goodbye. Try as you might, but your fate is out of your hands. You will die, several times, completely out of your control. And when you are in control, you're zipping through a brown tunnel lined with camouflaged brown spikes with accompanying brown background walls. Or you're entering a portal, expected to instantly shift gears or you will fall and die, as if you had leapt straight into a black hole instead. Don't know when to hold up or down? You're dead, sucker.

The final section has a loop, which by the way.. almost never work in EE, and is no surprise this one doesn't work either. There is a block so strategically placed where you will bump the corner pixel over and over as you try to pass it by. You will die to this loop, over, and over, and over again, and by some stroke of luck if you do manage to pass it, you will die, as you're shot through the section at light speed, unable to learn the layout until a few hundred deaths in. There's a hint that reads something along the lines "Press Space Here" except you will likely never read it, as time and space begin to warp around you. My friends watched in horror as I momentarily warped out of existence, entering another plane of reality, a dimension where all my lost socks are transported to, and where peace has the fabled bubble aura. And then I respawned back in the real world, to try that toilet bowl loop again.

This world just stopped being fun very early on. Attempts take too long, and you can't see where you're going. I love the concept, a swooping, swirly aerial level, except it's far too precise for any comfort, with some poorly placed blocks that don't serve as challenge but as pure frustration factor. This world is rated Hard, but there's a few Extreme maps, by contrast, are a stroll through the park. Yikes.

If you don't add a wall of text in conjunction with that quote it's just meaningless Pipec.

Anyway we are missing one element here, where is mud campaign? My Modern Mario Bros level has yet to be placed into it.

No I'm just saying, that level was pretty much fun for me and I don't have any problems with it, but yeah keep it up.

Joeyc · 2018-11-27 01:02:22

I have to disagree with you on this one pipec. The level is SO stupid and I mean it's honestly terrible. It looks kinda fun when you first start it, until after you notice its a coin hunt with little to no directions on what to press.
You pretty much have to figure it all out on your own spending hours trying to get the last coin. It almost feels like you can't react in time like some off screen jumps that give you like not even a second to press.
Or even the fact you go too fast to know where to go and know where you need to go, to get the final coins. I personally don't like this level at all and got really mad at it despite being another Thanel level. 3/10

Bump cause archery range is a disgusting level

Archery range has somehow managed to surpass my expectations on how awful it was going to be. At least when the other campaign levels beat you half to death with a spiky metal club, you can see it hitting you and you get a basic idea of how you can dodge it next time. But with archery range, not only is that same club on fire, but you're going through sensory deprivation too!

Half the time I don't understand where I need to go, what keys I need to hold, how long I need to hold them for, etc. because the level never conveys them properly. Couple this with this level's almost unnaturally deep phobia of checkpoints, means that you can't even experiment properly without dying immediately.

I haven't played the space campaign yet, but thus far Archery Range is the worst level of the entire element pack. I cannot be bothered to finish it in it's current state.

Is archery range bad? It's the tier I'm on right now, and yes. Yes. YES. no

YESS!

It's really bad so far. I'm on the second to last area (I think), and uh...

It's bad

This part is the most luckbased and stupid part. Nerf it please.

Slabdrill · 2018-12-02 19:18:21

the world is completely fine except the extra mini at the end of red. I got the rest of the coins without much trouble - it's just knowing which inputs need to go where, and none of the timings are even precise (except in that mini).
