Well, I'm glad you are liking it so far.

Probably too late to correct the wallswims you mention at this point.

Keep it up!

It's been a while, but, playing through this again, I found an embarrassingly obvious wallswim early in the level. From there, I decided to make some other changes:

  • Changed dialogue, so that continue and end markers are simpler. Also cleaned up dialogue in places so it all neatly fits in the boxes.
  • Added a mercy warp in the Silver Mountains, in case you missed something.
  • Added new music in some areas
  • changed some credits

We are now at version 1.0.7! Download it on the main post.

Well, that's well-timed!  I was just now getting back into the level to see if I could find some secrets.

Ha-ha!  You just patched it and I found a bug! :crazy:

There's a switch you can press at the start of the Silver Mountain area, the one that starts a brief quip from the mayor - if you're too far to the right (and left, probably, I didn't try that out) when you press it, you'll get quantized into the wrong spot, and you won't be able to scroll through the mayor's text!

There are also a handful of walls that should be no-climb and aren't, but they're in totally inconsequential places.

Curse you Nelson, I mean, Ultigonio!

Okay, new patch time, 1.0.8:

  • Fixed the stuff that Ultigonio said.
  • Fixed a potential trapping save point in the Basalt Woods.
  • Added a new secret area, though I'm almost positive it's impossible to reach legitimately. Try to prove me wrong!

I take that as a challenge. Maybe when I feel like playing this again. I think I'm still burnt out on this level from all the play-testing I did.

Hello, I am Hopeseeker.
Excuse me for grave-digging an old (but extremely well made) Level: Cosmic Meltdown.
I would have a problem with this level.
I end the level by finding all the four keys, then was teleported to the light green-ish extra area.

In this area all your items get removed except Run powerup, Climbing Powerup, Holo Powerup.

I get the Umbrella, I get the Yellow Key, then I get the hint where counting the Yellow flowers is supposed to be the first part of the secret. I think I have done so but I have found no use for this (yet).

I go to the area in the upper right where you can use the yellow key, however, the laser lock is already open.

The piston puzzle is already open. And when I use the key I get to talk with Fubaka but he just tells me I need to bring the key to the end of the level.

The piston puzzle is supposed to be closed and not already solved.
Fubaka is supposed to appear and not be there already.
Fubaka is supposed to say something more intelligent than just "ok, now get the key to the end of the level", and to speak a series of sentences ending with the > mark.
I can find no use for the yellow flowers count.
I can find no other secret in this area despite haveing looked very well everywhere.
This feels... broken somehow.
Please help. I don't mind being spoiled, I give up and actually I think there is a problem with the level. I am playing version 1.0.8 and I have only cheated to get the red key.
