Re: Spyroforum Fan Game - deciding on the levels

I really want to see the Dream-like level be created, go from ethereal to nightmarish. An Artisan-like homeworld would be cool. How about a level that has a mystical forest setting?

Re: Spyroforum Fan Game - deciding on the levels

I would absolutely love a mystical forest setting! Those types of levels are always fun to play.

I also believe we'll be having the level changing from morning, to mid-day, to night. I'd especially love to see a forest at night level since, when done correctly, they can give off a creepy vibe.

Other level possibilities - Snow/ice themed level (which are usually popular). 'Larger than life' style level (think of the library level from Castle of Illusion on the MegaDrive/Genesis).

Re: Spyroforum Fan Game - deciding on the levels

I really like the carnival picture Sheep smile
I like the mystical forest idea. I also like the desert/canyon one we have now, maybe there could also be some underground cave, or make a separate cave level :3 with crystals.

Yes, crystal caves! smile
I have a hard time picking my top three favorites, but once we have three levels and the game engine done, it shouldn't be very difficult to add more levels.

I love the concept art there, Sheep!

And the forest idea sounds brill too.

Re: Spyroforum Fan Game - deciding on the levels

As for the homeword, Artisians like world seems the most appealing to me.

Also another idea for a level could be a haunted castle with some traps and secret chambers :3

Re: Spyroforum Fan Game - deciding on the levels

I'm not sure if this was thought of yet, but I think a day/night cycle would be cool to implement in the homeworld. You could go to a level when it's day time, and you come back to the homeworld at night.

Re: Spyroforum Fan Game - deciding on the levels

Yes, I've already discussed that with Sheep. smile

The plan is to have a level during the day, the evening and night. Each time you return, the homeworld will reflect that new time, so that the finale takes place during the night.

Re: Spyroforum Fan Game - deciding on the levels

For future reference, what format would you guys like for the music? mp3? wav? maybe some of that hot .ogg action?

Re: Spyroforum Fan Game - deciding on the levels

Probably not wav, since that would be like having huge .bmp images?
I think we need both an .ogg and an .mp3 version for each track, and for all other sound files, because of the inconsistencies across the browsers. Those are the formats I ended up with for the sound effects, at least.

Re: Spyroforum Fan Game - deciding on the levels

I plan to make a track, maybe just a title screen one, once I have all of my samples together. I could make one now, but I prefer to have everything present, even if I'm not going to use it.
