Pwnful's Level Collection

[pwnful]

Honestly, I'm new to Fantastic Contraption. I've played it many times in the past, but I got the full version about 5 days ago (Christmas). Anyways, I made a couple levels. Compared to some levels I've seen on the forums, they're pretty easy.

Enjoy.

Pwnful - Excellent levels! I remember when I purchased the game, and believe me, mine were far worse than that.

Anyway, here are a few tips - These are really my opinions, people like different things. Also, I am ONLY trying to help you, please don't take offence to anything, if you might.

- Connections - Take a lot of time to make sure that all of the static objects "Connect" well. That is, they look nice together, and look like they "Fit".

- Multiple Solutions!!! - A excellent level is not one that is only solved one way. When designing your levels, be extremely open to all possible solutions, and how they would work on the level.

Example: http://fantasticcontraption.com/?levelId=519124 - Simple concept, but really has a lot of different solutions.

- Simplicity - Remember, these are only my Opinions, really. People may like different things. In most cases, a simple "Looking" level is the best. You really don't want 3/4 of the map covered in Static. BE AWARE - Sometimes this is necessary, like with the level above. I'm not saying you cannot do this, in any way.

Example: http://www.fantasticcontraption.com/?levelId=574656 - Dodge And Run, but slightly simpler, and more "Connected".

- Default Sizes - Try to not use the default sizes, be them Goals, or anything. This isn't a requirement, but it shows time, and effort.


Remember, that level making is a skill, and will develop by creating levels, playing levels, or even just thinking about them!

Thanks for the tips, Chris!

I'll be sure to keep those in mind.

Excellent level! Glad to see you took my tips to mind!

[pwnful]

Hmm...

I've made 4-5 levels since I last posted, but I don't know if a couple of them are possible, and they're all pretty hard.

Should I post them anyways?

[pwnful]

I'll post a couple I KNOW are possible.

But with the insanely hard ones... Maybe.

Nice levels
