New Level - Cloud Spires

[Xephelium]

Hello, first post

I've created a new level for single player / coop. It's set on some rock spires sticking up out of the clouds. Here's some pictures:






Scary platforming!



To play it in coop, hit Escape to go into level editor mode. Double click the box containing your buddy rabbit, and press Ctrl-Shift-P to make him playable. Press 8 and then L to restart the level.

Unfortunately, the AI really likes to run off cliffs to their death, so it's pretty easy to cheese the fights that way. I have them respawn a couple times so you should at least get a bit of challenge even if they do that.

Hint: to start the final battle, finish whatever combat you're in and stand on the platform in the water.

Bugs and Workarounds: If your camera gets stuck in the sky after you fall off the tower, try stepping into some water. If the ambient sounds cut out after a while, restart Overgrowth. If an enemy gets stuck inside a rock, zap them with F.

I might make a PvP version later if I can figure out how to script it to rotate through several scenarios.

I haven't had the chance to finish this map yet, but I have had a run around on it, the detail is really cool and overall from what I've seen, it's a really good map with a lot of well-placed detail.
Due to not finishing it, I don't know if there's a full story, but from what I can see there's quite a few dialogues around the level.

(One thing to add, is there a safe way off the spire? When I spawn I just jump off, but take a bit of fall damage)

Thanks for moving the post.

There's not really a story. Just a bit of dialogue to set up some interesting battles.

You have a couple knockout shields, so falling off the tower won't kill you unless you got really hurt fighting the dog. If you land on the stairs or fall through the trees you might take less damage.

I'm glad you like the environment. I spent a lot of time making it look good.
