The Dot Level Review: Judge: iaoumeur

Level: System error

By: Sholvanic1058

Difficulty  9/10
Very hard, took me about 5 goes to win it. The harder it is the better!

Dotiness  8/10
No new features. This increases dotiness. I personally don't use those "pixel jumps" which are where there is only a tiny square but it added a bit of difficulty to the level so that's great.

Uniqueness  7/10
I could see you made an effort with this level. You re-did it and thought about it and (hopefully) looked at the criteria and improved on your last attempt. However it's not AMAZINGLY unique.

Glitches  9/10
One tiny glitch that isn't really a glitch, I'll fix it when I add it to The Dot 3. When you respawn sometimes it's into the floor, don't worry about it though.

My personal opinion  10/10
I'm really sorry for not giving you the proper template. However now you had another attempt which costed you time so I think this deserves bonus.

Total:  43/50

NOTE: I have to wait for EdgeGamer to post his review then we can add up the score...

Hey this is to EdgeGamer, can you delete your old review of Sholvanic's level because he has created a new one...

BTW I'm a she.

Hi. I've had a go at designing a Dot 3 level. It's called "Lava Palaver". It will probably be disqualified because I forgot the rule about not changing the script for the "dot" sprite and have made it so that you ride the bat instead of it killing you.

All the best Imaginos.

The Dot Level Review: Judge: iaoumeur

Level: Lava Palava

By: Imaginos

Difficulty  10/10
I found this really hard! I don't know whether it was just me but getting onto the bat was really difficult!

Dotiness  5/10
That is a real new feature, riding a bat! I don't know if I can keep this for The Dot 3 though. There is already a script where the bat kills you and I know how to fix it, but other people might think the bat kills you. Would you mind if I changed the bat into a small platform that you jump on?

Uniqueness  8/10
Although the idea of riding the bat wasn't that much like a dot level, it was certainly unique! I would have never thought of that myself! 

Glitches  6/10
One glitch that can be fixed easily. Most of the lava at the bottom won't kill you. This is because it is the wrong colour.

My personal opinion  8/10
I was a great idea but I don't know if I can keep it the same in the dot 3. Your level will still be put into the game but I might have to change it...

Total:  37/50

Thanks for your feedback iaoumeur. I did consider making it a moving platform instead of the bat but I only had an hour or so free to knock this together. I think that a platform would work better as it could be made wider... as you posted, staying on the bat is tricky.

I did try to match the red colour to your lava sprites but I obviously failed.

That's ok, I can fix everything, but I just need your permission to change the bat into a moving platform and change the lava colour...

TWO DAYS LEFT TO ENTER THE COMPETITION. BETTER HURRY!!!

EdgeGamer: NEED reviews for the two games above please get them done so I can add them in the dot 3 in their correct positions...

Nope, The Dot 3 will hopefully be released the day after that...

Hey, EdgeGamer, I really need your reviews in for the above games because the deadline is tomorrow. Thanks...

EDIT: Also how is your level for the dot 3 going? I just started mine. But I think we should make two each because there aren't many levels in it...

I don't know... We are meant to add together our totals and get a result out of 100. I have already added your level in The Dot 3 but I don't know who to give the mention to because I don't know who will get the last place on the leaderboard...

Closing today at 12.00pm GMT. The whole topic won't be closed, you just won't be allowed to enter... But EdgeGamer still hasn't reviewed the two levels and he also needs to create two levels of his own for The Dot 3. If he doesn't review it then I'll look at how he normally judges in relation to my review then I would give a score that I would think he would give...

iaoumeur, have you calculated my score yet?


Sorry in advance if I am bugging you.

No you're not bugging me, I am still waiting for EdgeGmaer to review it too, if he doesn't review it in the next few hours I will look at what he judged in relation to how I judge and work out a score that I think he would give. Then I would add up mine and "his" score and get a total. Sorry it's taking so long. I've already added your level in The Dot 3 though.

Thanks!
