Quaint Little Cabin in the Woods
Author: [Death Valley] Reviewer: [Moonraker]
Aesthetics:
I think a more appropriate name for this level would be "Quaint Little Cabin in a Box". Sadly the level doesn't even look like a forest and the walls are flat and textured with what looks to be like a grass mat. The architecture wasn't that great either. It was very boxy, I can understand the cabin being this way but having the terrain flat and boxy is bad. So many things did not make sense, instead of stairs like a normal cabin would have, the cabin has a ladder to the second floor. There are a few more things but I'm not going to mention them. The lighting in this level was very strange in places, all the corners were lit and from an unknown light source. A lamp sits in a boat in a small pond that is pitch black, which seems very strange to me because I recall lamps producing light. If all these unfortunate flaws weren't enough, take my advice and don't look up. In the sky rests the scariest moon ever created.
Gameplay:
Well since this level had no weapons and no health it wasn't good for much except very short saber battles. It can get very dark in some places which is good for hiding but it is better to just fight than hide. Fighting in the cabin can get quite interesting, it is so small that 8 out of every 10 hits lands on your opponent. The framerate stayed pretty good because of the small size and lack of 3dos in the level. A few items would have been nice however.
Final Comments:
Well besides very short saber battles, this level doesn't have much going for it. So many things could have been done to make this level better but the author either refused to implement them or ran out of time. The idea was very good but it just didn't fit altogether when it was time to make the puzzle.
