I was preparing a reply to show all the flaws in a level set in Iceland, Scotland and France. But then I opened the Level Designer and noticed that could work pretty well actually. I might think about it. But so far I'm afraid a level from Iceland or Scotland will look a lot like Arctic Ruins without the snow. And if I don't add structures, the level might end bland and I will nothing to make multiple layers of platforming like all the other levels have.

Now, on the other hand, after 15 minutes in the Level Designer, I'm starting to think France could be a decent idea. But I'm afraid adding challenges and obstacles might be difficult in a level like this and it will end up looking the same for the two acts. I'm afraid it will look too much like a clone of Flooded Past (but without the water factor which makes Flooded Past interesting), which is set in Atlantis which will be greatly influenced by ancient European architecture; or just boring, redundant and dull, even more after I will have posted Candy Coaster (which gathers a lot of varied challenges to fix the fun factor that was missing in Arctic Ruins).

Buuuuuuuuut I guess I can think about it.

I'm actually tempted to try but our styles are NOTHING alike.

I was thinking more modern as opposed to the ruins of Atlantis, and you could have lots of arts and stuff. And rooftop runs. And city streets. And maybe SK himself! *shot*

Then again if I'm suggesting all of this I might as well just make it myself. It's up to you really.

Hm... I think I could do something after the LDC...

You could make england, with all the rooftop run thing + some castles, red buses, and a cool clock in the middle of the level.

We all need to get into a five way duel based around real locations.

You know what

I thought about it a lot today, drew some concepts in my math notebook and honestly, I think I could pull something off with a Paris-like city for theme. So yeah, here you go, I add another level to the Super Mario Countdown series. The only problem with that level is that I had 10 levels + 1 level that isn't part of the story (admitting there is one, but yeah, what I'm saying is that it's more a bonus level); and now I have 11 levels. I'm not a big fan of odd numbers. Sooooo, anyone wanting to help me on this one? :3333 (also you know MoD that's okay if our styles are not like; I mean that's even better, that would add so much originality to the series, instead of the same similar style oever and over (plus i love your style <3))

tl;dr: Paris level is now official, help for a 13th level (greatly) appreciated

Oh, I might need a name for that Paris level. I liked the sound of Wonder Ville at first, but the more I hear it the stranger it gets.

oh and don't mind my new avatar, it's just A MOTHERFREAKING RABBIT WITH AN ICE CREAM CONE ON ITS HEAD
