Elma 2 Shortcuts

Post by chux »

I just thought, seeing as Balazs told us that he didnt know that people would be able to do the Headbanger, Bowling, etc shortcuts, will this change his level making in the next one?

He could either put in more shortcuts, or maybe try to stop them by using less polygons of a bigger size. The latter would keep TTs higher and more achieveable...maybe we'd have 20 Zweqs...

Or the other possibility is that he'll go on making them as usual and make a few unintentionally like he did with Elma.

What do you think?

yes ribot, you are right. almost all were just some shitty hoyl speed levs, but I think bowling and hooked havent been that bad lvls really if we look at the styles development. and pipe might be 29-30 someday

I'm not sure exactly what you're asking but: Noone (except Balazs that is, although I'm not sure he knows either) knows when the next version of ElastoMania will be released.

Make levels so he thinks the WR time'd be about x1 seconds, eg. 11:00, 21:00, 31:00, 41:00, 51:00, 1:01:00 so we have good fun getting under time limits! That'd rock! :roll:
