  Could anyone steer me to a more detailed guide, if there is one, on designing levels and using certain editor functions for Moonlights? I have some good ideas for levels but always give up in frustration since I can never make things work as they should.

Edit: Thanks Elizea. Mainly just can't figure out how to get paths to work or to make things rotate.

  Where are the instructions? I don't get most of the levels. Can you do anything else than just left clicking with the mouse?

  Very pretty game. Concept is not new, but very well made and nice variation of it. (edit: Actually very different from the usual tower builder)

  someone has had fun voting nearly all my levels down... i was still yesterday with designer score +4.5 and now its 4.3... and i havent got levels evaluated...

  I was just thinking that it is a good thing you are not an admin :P

and yes you are right about the "moons are what they are"

and sometimes if the background is to black i can't see the nodes

and there should be a Zoom in-out button

  It's a personal preference, so I might not like them but I'm sure most of the rest of BL likes the accepted levels. In short, what I like is simple, creative levels. You can have a theme but it can't be too complicated either.

I think it's inevitable that majority of the levels turned out to be so complex in design, it's because previous games on BL such as Rolling Turtle and Jump Gear have encouraged extra design in the levels (with background lines and text info etc).

But I was thinking Moonlights should be different, the music and the theme (reaching the moon) all contribute towards a relaxing, peaceful theme. Clearly, having background lines in Moonlights would completely ruin the circular motif that's running in the game, but 'forcing' shapes by using moons is also very inappropriate, to me. So I would prefer levels that use the moons as what they are, circles, and not lumps or warts or whatever.

By the way, doesn't anyone else here feel that the game is too zoomed out?

  I don't really like Speed Crawl either, honestly, though there are 2 key differences: 1) no deleting required 2) time matters

And care to explain, how Dangling is like Crawler? It was partly meant as a 'clue' to help Ferris Wheel, seeing how many people were doing well over 200 moves. And that shows, that mechanic is a much underused one that not many people are familiar with.

p.s. don't feel sad I liked Inclosed :P
1jase 15 years ago
  but I only have 4 and half of them he hates. :(

anyway i have to disagree with you asforien.
what about your levels like

Speed Crawl (Moonlights)
and
Dangling (Moonlights)
those are kind of like Crawler

  I'm working on a game for the 4K Flash game competition (not a lot of money to earn but sounds like a very fun competition). I plan to submit here a full version of the game soon here.
