Long time, no see!

A level I made.

edit: By the way, what's the cheat code to get into inaccessible levels in ST2? I forget.

Well, anyway, here's my first Subterra Level Pack:
Escape from Castle Manesern. Requires a lot of accuracy because it's "dodge the enimies"-themed. Has nine levels, the ninth one being a showdown with the Mountain King.

Thanks! I'm glad to see this is still active, and will make some time next week to play your levels.

Oh hey, new levels. I'll have to try these... maybe tomorrow...

Did I ever post my series involving the Mountain King? I can't remember.

Here's a fun little level I made recently. Kind of hard, too

If dirt is cloned, it cannot be collected until it stops, instead acting as a wall. This level takes advantage of dirt, cloners, ice, and moving floors to create a maze that gets harder to navigate over time.

Took another crack at playing ST2 recently.

I feel like a lot of the itemset is more "experimental" compared to the first game, and I keep trying to find certain things that just don't exist anymore. Levels feel easier too, I think.

I do like the variety of items though, like with the logic gates and sorcerers, you can do a lot more intricate stuff with them.

Yes, it's definitely more experimental. I've been doing a lot of research lately into which objects make the best puzzles, and I find that a number of ST2 objects are mainly complicated for the sake of being complicated. I do like logic gates though.

Have you ever done any fun stuff, like reading all the level data from both games, then seeing which objects are used the most? Or do you just go "Oh, nobody uses Lightbulbs"?

Do you have a rough idea on what objects will make a return in Draconis?

Yes. Checking how frequent objects were used was easy; making a selection of what I believe are the best puzzle objects has been taking some time. This is why the beta version I promised you was taking longer than expected.
