Out of the following, what do you think is most important and most enjoyable? teeth spikes mummys. etc. detailed texturing traps [b]scary / frightening atmosphere[b] [b]other[b] ? ? ------------------ IP: Logged

skibsy Member Posts: 50 From:London Registered: Apr 2001 | posted 06-13-2001 01:04 AM Puzzles and traps do it for me. Personally i,m not over keen on loads of enemies everywhere. A good atmosphere is great if you can achieve it,and flip maps can do wonders for a level when well used. Good luck...skibsy. IP: Logged

85 Member Posts: 192 From:Maryland USA Registered: Apr 2000 | posted 06-13-2001 10:33 AM Awesome puzzles, creativity, complex, detailed, and little something different that makes it stand out against all the other levels when it's slapped up on a site. Something that'll leave a mark, you know what I'm saying? Great luck!! ------------------ Rock on. 85 IP: Logged

guardianofseth Member Posts: 41 From:Jakarta,Indonesia Registered: Jan 2001 | posted 06-13-2001 04:33 PM I like levels where you have to go round and round. You know, to open the door right at the beginning you have to go around the whole level, looking for the piece of item to open that door. Just like The Lost Library level from TR4. IP: Logged
David Troska Junior Member Posts: 19 From:Bronx, New York, USA Registered: Jun 2001 | posted 06-13-2001 04:42 PM I'm not particularly fond of secret areas, oddly enough. Mainly because I always like to think I'm making progress in a level, but when I hear that "secret" sound, I know I just took an unnecessary sidetrip. Do not overpopulate a level with enemies! Let's face it, TR does not have a particularly strong combat engine, so why highlight it? Traps are cool, but only if they're avoidable. Let the player see the trap in advance, and then figure a way around it. Don't hit them blindly. IP: Logged
