SACKCITY BEACH
AUTHOR: paulcity123
DIFFICULTY: [Medium]
CATEGORY: Other
POSITIVES: This level was fun. It wasn't particularly innovative, but the gameplay was solid and I especially liked when the bridge blew up. But maybe that's just me. There was a wide variety of objectives/obstacles/things to do, and that is always a good thing, no matter what level it's in. I enjoyed the visuals, although I do list an aspect of them as a negative. I liked the technique of the "outlining," so to speak, of the buildings in the background. It was interesting and different, something I'd seen before, but a good technique to use, nonetheless.
NEGATIVES:
-At the end of the swimmer-saving mission, there doesn't appear to be a reward at all. Even simple point bubbles would give a nice sense of gratification to the player.
-The boat under the bridge is not powerful enough to break the glass of the building in one try. It was difficult after multiple tries. I suggest increasing the power of the rocket of the boat.
-The visuals were decent, but you can do better than decent, my friend. I can tell that you have enough skill to make it look better, so do it. Spend more time on the visuals; the gameplay is there.
NITPICKS:
-To the left of the very beginning, the character at the health station has a speech bubble with an error in it. "im" should be changed to "I'm."
-The same character mentioned above has an error in the speech bubble that activates after grabbing the block. "anyones" should be "anyone's."
-After grabbing the drowning swimmer, it would be nice to have some kind of an indicator that the mission is done, so the player doesn't waste time swimming to the left only to be stopped by an invisible wall.
-At the blowing-up-the-bridge mission, the speech bubble of the character, activated after grabbing the box, has an error. "theres" should be changed to "there's."
-At the scuba gear station, the speech bubble of the character has an error. "you" should be changed to "you."
-At the shark-shooting section, the speech bubble of the character has a few errors. "a" should be changed to "an," before "explosion." "done" should be changed to "down." "flys" should be changed to "flies." "to" should be changed to "too." After shooting the shark, the speech bubble activated by the action has an error. "heres" should be changed to "here's."
-At the ship that announces the end of Sackcity Island, the speech bubble has an error. "in joyed" should be changed to "enjoyed."
SUGGESTIONS:
-Consider, look into, and/or implement the negatives and nitpicks.
NOTES: None
OVERALL RATING: 4/5 stars; [hearted]; [not author-hearted]

the level was more a test of my skills and creativity to use original ideas, i made the level as i went so i know its a little random at parts.
