[GM7] Blue Box Adventures

[G_G]

This is just a side project I work on now and then when I get stuck with my main projects.
Main projects include
(Scripting)
(Fable Like Game)
(Digital Battles type game)

Its a small platformer game made in Game maker 7. Heres a video preview of the first three levels.
Yes the cartoony graphics are cartoony for a reason.

There's no story whatsoever just the same basic thing like the original Mario. Just go through levels. Heres some information about my game

Ducking
Ducking is really helpful and can save you. All you do is hold down the Down Arrow key.

Made with Game Maker 7 huh? Then why is it in the RPG Maker section xD

[G_G]

Guess you're right

I'm blue abadi abadi

Nice, been ages since I last heard that Vid looks cool

[G_G]

Thnx. I think I might release a demo when I get 8-10 levels done. I have 4 completely done. I have 3 already mapped out levels just need to test run it and add enemies then I'll probably make one more level and release a demo.

Any suggestions on how many levels I should make?

[Starrodkirby86]

Just make sure each level has a good original spin to it. No boring usual gimmick of a platformer.

Once you realize you're actually getting repetitive with your level designs, then screw it, you're done. Delete any levels that seem to be worthless, etc.

Let's see what happens with this.

Any of the first three levels look okay srk? They're in the video.

[Starrodkirby86]

First level looked too much like the tutorial one given to you.

The other ones looked pretty okay, I guess. This is probably going to be one quick play. (Nothing extremely long like Super Mario Bros.)

[G_G]

The first one wont be there its going to be replaced. And it is the exact map from the tutorial just with peppers, and different enemies. The flying one wont be there either. Its going to be replaced with a red cartoonish flying square....xD

EDIT: Levels 5 and 6 are done

[winkio]

Please, PLEASE, make everything similar graphic styles.  The first level is fine, but the others clash so much.

[G_G]

the first level wont be there anymore. The graphics are going to be replaced so they match the third and second level.

Someone delete this please? the file was lost in my terrible hard drive crash *a new platform is in the making though*
