Room of the Week 2012 - Archives

[Quietus]

Squishy for me this week.

Also: When I first viewed the rooms, it was on my work monitor, which is dark.  I thought that Scyzer's room was a joke entry, as I couldn't see any tiles - only the doors and statues.  Sorry, Scyzer! :heheh:

I thought that Scyzer's room was a joke entry

Scyzer wouldn't do that.

I have to say, I'm impressed with how awesome Scyzer's room looks using such a small set of rather basic tiles. I always love the cold, dark, intriguing quality your rooms have. Dark rooms seem to be the theme of the week, but Scyzer does it best.

Welp, room looks great, minus < funky looking grass, it gets brighter as it goes up on the rock, then dark as the plant grows off the rock, idk it just looks weird.

Also, I agree crateria is getting super old

Fuck man, why does everyone beside me make awesome looking rooms?

I suppose I will give it a try though! :3

[spoiler]

You can see one tile from every room connected to the side of this one. Gears and laser beams are animated. :yaynoes:

Red wall tiles are kinda funky, but it doesn't take away from the room all in all, looks awesome

[Lunaria]

They have magic shoot enemies on them. :>

But since this contest calls for editor shots you don't get too see all the amazing things.

[Blarget2]

So we can submit more than just Metroid rooms?

I have no idea, but hey, it does not hurt trying! :3

You may submit any 2D Metroid related screenshots here as long as you follow the rules.

[Quietus]

Yes, Shadow's changed.  It was much more square before.

As for voting: Project for me.

[spoiler]Um, it feels very mario. the solid blue background is bleh. the video didn't help at all. the spikes look cool, but the whole room just doesn't feel as awesome as the other x-2 rooms you've put up.[/spoiler]
Project
[spoiler]Well, as tired as I am of the criteria-like rooms, yours is pretty good. The palette could use work though, as the lighting isn't all too great. Ie. you have some slopes way too dark and some way too light. Another thing I have against your tileset is, as was mentioned by quatis, you have plants that don't transition well from the grass. The tall plants don't fit well on the criteria grass. The level design is good though, and the atmosphere is great for a metroid game. [/spoiler]

[spoiler]Tileset: Awesome. Room: eh. I'd love to see what I could do with a tileset like that, since you haven't really put a lot into that room. I presume it to be a landing site/docking bay. And It's not bad per se. however that layer two background is boring. [/spoiler]
shadow
[spoiler]you suck. You should just give up on hacking entirely. On a different note though, the room is, okay. The tileset finally has a background, so that's good. And the layering in the background isn't bad. The palette has improved as well. My only complaint about this room is the fact that it feels very cut. Very angular. Even for what it's supposed to be, it feels too straight.[/spoiler]

Shadow's room gives me Terraria vibes, no joke. Think underground jungle. I swear to god the colors are like, identical.

[Blarget2]

voted for p18.

fun fact about my room: that room had no layer 2. if it had one it would have been better.

[Qactis]

Tired of crateria, shadow's room is just too square for me, and I know you can do better, blarget's room looks like about 15 minutes went into making it, and full of fail's room is also quite square as well, I voted fof just because I felt like it, though in retrospect shadow has the room I like the most here

[Malpercio]

Far too much gray/yellow and red in Shadow's room (for me) to really see any Terraria jungle in it, but it has about the same degree of freaking plant life based clutter.
that said, I'm voting for shadow.
