Cursed Gallery - Last Area

Vegetal Gibber — Wed, 27 Dec 2017 15:40:37 +0000

A proposal for the last area in the Cursed Gallery KS collab level. It's about 38 screens long at this time (not counting duplicate rooms).

* The current segment ends at x1036y1005.

* x1027y1006 can only be accessed with the Eye and either the Double Jump (currently not placed anywhere) or the high jump. This room could be used as a secret or easter egg. x1034y1011 (requires the Double Jump) can also be used for a similar purpose.

Feel free to contribute in any way, either by posting a comment here (I'll try to update the first post with any links/attachments) or by importing this into the full level and editing it there (screens don't need to be relocated and there aren't any new COs, so it should be fairly simple to compile). Also, any feedback will be appreciated.

FULL VERSION OF Press A to Slow Down Zone

Only 3 areas meh. For full effect do not play until the collab level is released. For less full effect play it and tell me what you think (or if i messed up on something).

MAJOR UPDATE: Now the last screens are actually possible. L.O.L.

SIMILARLY MAJOR UPDATE: Now you can actually get to area 3 in the level select, and the right music is played during certain segments, and you can't wallswim during the white stripey escape segment.

My entry for this collab. No music or into/ending cutscenes, as I don't know how this is going to be organized into the full level. If you find any bugs or oversights (or ways to improve), tell me! This is a cleaned up and detailed version of my previous entry.

3 artifacts! (blue 7, green 7, red 7)
There is flag usage (flag 0 and flag 1).
Player begins with double jump and run. Player gains climb and eye powerups.
Much warps and shifts!
~42 playable seperate screens(?)
2 tilesets, 9 CO's, 2 gradients

Probably missing something here... I'll remember eventually.

Knytt Stories - Floating Island Park

atuun — Tue, 29 Aug 2017 01:54:55 +0000

My chunk of Knyttiness for the collab. Not super inspired and I'm not super happy with it, but...eh. That's where I am right now. Might have more time to revisit it in the near future. The music turned out good though I think.

Rooms: ~105 unique rooms (not counting empty sky rooms and stuff)
Starting Powers: Run, High Jump
Acquired Powers: Climb, Ghost Eye
Artifacts: blue artifacts 3 to 5, inclusive

Uses 2 tilesets by Davide "Imaddo" Lumacowic

Stained Glass Sanctuary

Danni — Sun, 27 Aug 2017 23:48:48 +0000

Information

Room count: 56
Starting powers: Run, Climb, Double Jump, High Jump
Obtainable powers: Eye, Hologram
Collectibles (please retain these): Purple Key, Red Artifact 2, Blue Artifact 1

My contribution to the collab. It features a combination of exploration and challenge segments. There's also a hallway intended to connect to someone else's area. Currently it just kills you if you try to go through it.

The Compress function in the editor crashes on Wine, someone please generate a .knytt.bin for me!

The Abandoned Space Station

This is a challenge area heavily featuring robots. It also contains several secret areas which are more exploratory in nature (and form a good half of the unique screen total). It has two endings/exits, and I'd be happy to edit in connecting areas to other people's sections (there's one particular secret area that might be perfect for that, in fact). The level uses a gradient by Vegetal Gibber and the music is public domain, Faure's Barcarolle No.1 Op. 26 performed by the European Archive. The ambience is all Nifflas's. The two tilesets used in the level are LEGO by PONTO and MECCANO by X_SHEEP respectively.

Unique Screens: 54-60 (60 if you count sky tiles which aren't just blank, 54 if you discount tiles that you can't walk or climb on).

Powers Used: Run (you start with this one), Climb, Double Jump, High Jump, Umbrella, Eye.

Collectibles: Two artifacts (no. 5 and 6, but this can be changed).

I'm pleased with this iteration of the level (I had to completely restart at one point), and I've checked it several times for any wallswims and the like, but I'd be happy to hear anyone's suggestions and stuff like that. This is the first complete level I've ever done! I'm really happy to be working on this collaboration with you guys. Now to try and finish my other solo level project before December comes around...

UPDATE: I took the advice given to me by VG and Sergio and used darkened background tiles and a fixed gradient. The first secret area is now much easier to find your way out of and has three save points in it.

Tropical Lima Beans

This is a very straightforward exploration-based area, focused mainly on visuals/ambience and the classic "find all power-ups in order to unlock the path to the exit" KS formula. There are a few very simple challenges here and there and a secret red artifact you can try to collect. Features custom graphics (tileset+gradient+a few COs) and a new ambience track I made by mixing some public domain sounds I got from FreeSound.org.

The screen with the umbrella leads to a dead end from where you can see a hollow area. I think this could be used for hiding another bonus and/or connecting to another area. Suggestions are welcome. The same goes for the background music (there's none at this moment, I can't decide if I should include a song or just let the custom ambience track do all the job).

Unique screens: 33 (not counting the duplicates used to fill up the sky)
Powers used: Run (available from the start), Climb, Double Jump, Umbrella, Eye, High Jump, Hologram.
Collectibles: Red artifact #1, Blue artifact #2.

* KS+ is required (uses artifacts, the overlay feature, a water OCO and an attachment for cave areas).

Cursed Gallery Hub

Vegetal Gibber — Fri, 18 Aug 2017 12:39:29 +0000

This is supposed to be the starting area for the Another Knytt Stories Collaboration Level collab project (the proposed idea being "The Cursed Gallery"). It's currently 16 screens long.

Some notes that may or may not be of interest:

* Features a freshly new tileset made almost from scratch and a couple COs for the lighting effects. There are still 3 unused tiles in the set, suggestions for these are welcome.

* Since this is just a hub area with no challenges, there's not much to do here, but I suppose it can still be somewhat enjoyed as a simple playground level and "appreciate the art" while taking a relaxing walk.

* There are 10 big framed portraits with a golden plaque that can be used as access points to the other upcoming areas of the level (if the final number of areas end up being less, it's just a matter of removing a few plaques).

* All the portrait pictures are just placeholders for now. I made the area in a way that only tileset A is needed in every screen, so tileset B can be used to hold the preview pictures for each area (plus other decorative pictures). The picture for each frame has to be cropped by 4 pixels from the outer border and overlayed over the background texture ("Tileset19.png" may serve as an example).

* The door at the end can be used as an ending room that would only be unlocked once the player has finished the other areas or accomplished any specific goal (collecting a certain power, all KS+ coins/artifacts...)

* The stairs at x1000y1000 and x1005y1000 caused a wallswim when they went all the way up due to the triangular collision mask, so I resorted to cut them off at the upper border and make the last step a simple jump. If anyone knows of a more elegant solution, please tell me.

* No KS+ features used for now, but if the whole level ends up requiring KS+, I wouldn't be opposed to adding some extra lighting effects and bonuses.
