What Rock Stars Do Best (BETA Level)

[Flare Skull]

Hey guys...since some dude found a way to get our levels on the full game thought you all should know that we have published a level which won an official Mm contest and FULLGORR transfered our level to the actual game.

So basically this was a level created by Me, FULLGORR, OssumPossum, and Morgana25

The story is basically a band group going to a concert when an unexpected thing happens.....not going to ruin it so go and play it.

Level Name: What Rock Stars Do Best
Publisher's PSN: FULLGORR

Have Fun! And feedback is appreciated!

Here are the 2 videos of the level

hi flare, just one question about this level because i tried playing it last night. i got to the part where you have to press the button to emit the scooter like vehicle. and when i grabbed the sponge to go, it would move forward and a path emits in front of it to avoid the gas below. but the problem i encountered was i never got half way across because it would stop emitting a path halfway before i could get to the other side. or it would emit but then the path started to lead downward and stop emitting and fell to my death. i tried all sorts of ways but couldn't get through. what stopped me from trying to continue was that i fell to my death, but the scooter got stuck near where it emits, but below so i couldn't pull it back up and i guess while a scooter is still physically present, pressing the button to emit another scooter doesn't work.

Okey dokey just got back from Flare kidnapping my sackbutt and dragging me to this level.

A good level but slightly disappointing having been presented as an official MM contest winning level, and having been created by some top creators I was expecting something fantastic, not just another good level.
The central premise is of a journey to a rock concert through a graveyard , falling down a hole, smoking a joint and ending up going on a trip in a psychadelic fantasy land finally ending back in reality at the concert.
There was some nice stuff going on and all the tech and created objects seem to work fine but there were a lot of missed opportunities. It may have been a result of the online create wherein there was a compromise of styles.
The dialogue in the graveyard section (I'm guessing that was Possums input) was very funny and could have easily been carried over into the trippy section.The architecture of the graveyard was fine but there was a lot better such as Pirmauts Halloween decor in his level.
The trippy section with the exception of the silhouetted part was kind of bland, there are many finer trippy psychedelic levels out there with superior effects that would of worked better.
So many humourous rock star references could of been thrown in to give this part a lift ( no hendrix/ grateful dead!)The gas background just seemed a bit dated, and lazy.
The end section of the arrival at the rock concert could have so easily been brought to life with better lighting effects and a cheering moving animated crowd. The juxtaposition of the two realities was fine but once again there's been a lot better. Highlights for me the opening story dialogue and the guitar designs.

So in summation a good level that seemed to suffer from a lack of clear direction in design and look. Maybe the lesson learned from this was to have an overall lead designer, maybe Flare or Possum could tell us of the methods used in planning? Given the assembled talent an epic level should have emerged, instead something just above average nothing particularily innovative. each of the creators has far better work to their names.

Haha I know some parts were off but in return we had a good time doing it! The contest name was Piggy In The Middle....the beginning with the Van up to the entrance after the house was not made by us (It was made by NinjaMicWZ, xkappax, jackofcourse, and I belive gruntosUK) and so was the ending where you get tot the concert....we were not allowed to alter that......but it seemed very nice when making it.....i guess now i can see lots of things to improve but I'd rather not because it is originally what won the competition. Thanks for the feedback and as always we will fix any major bugs (though i havent found any) I'll make sure to get FULLGORR's lazy but up and let me into the level to fix anything serious

It's a greta level. I will have to agreed with Enoch though,the part in which you were druged were pretty boring in my opinion. Atleast in the scenery. Maybe polsih it up a bit and add a bit of a story to it now that you have the time?

haha I remember when you won..most thought the level was over the line and didn't expect it to win xD

Atleast our "This is Saboutage!" came on second place!
