  Hey guys, I just wanted to give some advice to making 5 star levels. This advice applies to most games here, although I am going to put it in terms of Hog Pop.

When you make a really good level it should answer as many of these 3 questions as possible:

1- Where: The most important question to answer. Instead of your level taking place somewhere floating in the sky, try adding background and architecture to make the level look like its somewhere interesting.
When an admin says a level "needs more design" we actually are asking you to answer this question.
Example- The Strange Cave (Hog Pop), Colored Cliffs (Hog Pop), or Train-Troubles (Hog Pop)


2- Why: Why must the goal be reached or the bubbles be popped? Sometimes the "where" also answers this question, since if your in a volcano you obviously are trying to escape and not die.

Example- In Islander (Hog Pop) you are stranded on an island and must escape. In Caved In (Hog Pop) you are attempting to escape a cave.

3- Who: This is usually answered by the game itself, (In Rolling Turtle- "The Turtle"). Although if you want to make a level that tells a story you may have to answer this question. In Hog Pop we usually do not want story levels, but sometimes if made well enough we accept them.
Example- In Christmas Adventure (Hog Pop) you are the homeowner. In 3 from Push (Hog Pop) you are Push's guest in his world.

Now that you know this, I challenge The Hog pop designers to make a level that answers as many of these questions WITHOUT info bubbles.

  Don't worry, I'll be trying to bring more people to this site. Hopefully it'll bring this game more interest.

  JG2, RT and BB are the most popular games of all time. Currently BB and PI are the most active games. P4M follows thereafter, and then JG2, BB2, RM2.5, RT, Push, HP, CDvZP and CBCL. At least that's how I think it is. I have no statistics on the subject.

  The most people only play BB, PI, BB2 and P4M.

  No, what about JG2, RM 2.5, BB, BB2, and PI?

  If you desactivate the music, and turn it on after one second, it sounds slower.

i think everyone knows about that, but the music sounds more catchy after doing it, and boring after a while. :p

  Hog Pop is quite forgotten *sadface* not many people seem to play it. This is my favourite BL game and I miss when it was popular.

  My kids love this type of game, they usually play popcap games and those featured in http://www.izombiegames.com/shooting, for sure they will like this one too.

Play Game "Hog Pop"

  1) I think the camera should be more zoomed out by default and can zoom further since all the bubbles are so big...

2) Hot hair powerup is a bubble? oO

3) Death bubble and ball don't really look like harmful items... Maybe a skull picture would be better?

4) Allow users to set the minimum number of bubbles to be popped? Might be useful, though there's already maximum jumps.

The game is really very similar to RT... even the music, haha.
