Secret Star: Grandfather Clock
Welcome to Grandfather Clock, my first secret star I've made, and the first short level I will submit to the Portal! Collect 5 silver stars in this level completely inspired by an actual Grandfather Clock! And yes, I've playtested this level, and don't dare tell me it's too easy. My first try, I died 15 times. Don't worry, it can be beaten.

Code: Select all

Basically collect all the silver stars. Have fun, and enjoy.

This is a good level, with what I would consider moderate difficulty, one of the reasons why someone might find this level too easy would be because it is relatively a short level

It's decent for your first level submitted (forgive me if I have mistaken). No frustrating or cheap difficulty and no notable lag. Though I don't see how this level is very difficult, I beat it in my first try and don't think people will die 15 times if they know what they are doing. I will also say this level is a bit too short, of course, it's better to have a level that's short and sweet than long and poorly made. But it's still too short . There aren't any story or mechanic of interest in this level but it's still enjoyable.

Conclusion: I give it 3 stars. Don't get discouraged by that, I'm sure you will improve.

Suggestion: From what I can tell, you have a pretty good grasp on the usage of the different platforms, blocks and obstacles, try to expand the levels and play around with fludd, flame tower, level transistors etc. Levels can be made harder (I've seen way harder levels than this). And feel free to add some storyline if you are up to the challenge.
