I like a lot of kinds of levels and I prefer hacks that have a variety of level types. The only level types I hate is autoscrolling levels, it doesn't give you the freedom to explore the level as long as you want.

Forgot about volcano levels too

Hey, I just thought of something - is it possible you could have a layer 2 scrolling volcano? Like, where the lava is rising and you have to escape? Kinda like an eruption-thing. I think it would be cool to try.

Yes... I've taken a vote on that one. I like levels where you have to jump over and over again. I guess that means that "Sky level" is the exact one for me... The most boring levels (in my opinion) seems to be the "Underwater levels". I just don't find much interest in them at all, I guess...

Doomship. I assume this implies auto-scrolling...

Yea that is a pretty cool idea, but it would be pretty hard to make the lava rise with the screen. Perhaps you could shorten the levels time limit a bit and have a message block at the begging saying somthing along the lines of "Hurry the volcanos going to erupt [don't have time to look up proper spelling] in X amount of seconds."

Also, don't feel stupid for not including volcanos in your poll, after I made my post I realized volcanos could probly fit in the "any caves" catagory.

Edit: Ha, I'm such a dumb ass if the level is on auto scroll then a time limit is kind of pointless.

My favorite is the Ghost house maze. This may sound like a moron question, but how do I vote in the poll?

You just click on whatever type of level you prefer while you are sighned into the board, if it wont let you, then you probly already voted accidently and didn't realize it.

Good news - I think I got the volcano level working. You just use the special layer 2 scroll, make it a vertical level, and the lava won't stop rising. It will eat anything in it's path, so be quick.

the lava could probably look as if it was rising if the level is on layer 2 and it sinks into lava on layer 1. i dunno if this would work with a vertical level though, i've never tried.

Anything that makes the game feel dark and retro. I'd have to say of the choices besides other, Factory.

For the volcano, put the lava on layer one, the level on layer 2, and use the layer 2 falls sprite. Layer 2 will fall downwards, simulating that the lava is rising! No sprites though

Well, the sprites aren't on layer two, so obviously, they won't "rise" with the level, and it will look very stupid and unrealistic if you just see sprites floating in one place. Remember, this isn't really gonna make a rising volcano, it will just look like it.

That is the level I'm currently working on (you can see in my siggy), and what I'm doing, is just having a huge maze. It's also a two-exit level, so if you want the secret exit, you need to carry a key from the bottom to the top of the volcano. I think this will work well - Ill post screenshots for you guys to see when I'm finished.

EDIT: Hmm, this may be a lot harder than I thought, for starters, layer 2 falls doesn't work. It doesn't fall at all. You just go into the level and nothing happens.
Is there any way to fix this?

Yeah, me too, thank you but it's really tough making it - I think I'll save this one for my last world, since it doesn't really suit a forest. But since I got it working, I'll leave the level there, in add it in later.

Where is the forest option. I voted for other meaning forest.

Also, this thread was done a while back.

It was?

*looks through older threads*

I must have missed it.

Yeah, I left out typical, original levels, like forest, plains, stuff like that. By any cave, I mean with rips and such. But then, I left out a lot of stuff in this thread, because if I would've put every level type in, it would probably fill the page.
