Marble blast Alex's Island [My new Mini-Mod]

Hi guys.
(you now probably hate me)
I came back with my new Mini-Mod called "Marble blast Alex's Island"
It's alot better than TIB.

Here's a image of the first level:

This is a rip-off tbh

I want everyone to give this a chance

Alex, please read the feedback I posted in Jiquor's thread .

I still believe that MBStop 2 has an 100000000000000x higher chance of actually being released than this mod does.

Progress is being made

Okay. Jiquor and I watched this together (he came over for a visit) and here are our thoughts on the progress.
The times listed (in bold) are where the comments were given in the video. Red text is Jiquor, green text is me.

All of it - Oh my god why is this orange texture here...
Again, all of it - I'd really suggest changing the marble. Yes, it's an A instead of a P, but it's still the same style as the platinum marble.
0:27 to 0:32 - Oh god please don't tell me the finish is there I swear to god pleasepleasepleaseplease GOD DAMMIT!
0:35 - boi... ye boiiiii
0:37 - oh my god wat is that texturing
1:04 to 1:15 - Is he using the same interior?... Oh my god that's the same interior... Why is he using the same int- Oh hey look more stretched texturing!
All of the third level - Is that a gem? Is that was the ocean is? Oh wait that's a tube. HOW IS HE NOT GETTING STUCK IN IT!?!?
1:47 - Whee it's that falling marble level!
1:50 - do u know how to make rings bro
2:01 - lol he failed
2:17 - GHAGDJASGFBNEFG HOW DID HE MISS THAT LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
2:39 to 2:50 - Oh he hit the thing and now he's not going to finish... ... ...OH MY GOD THAT FINISH LOLOLOL
2:59 - Nice pipe.

Okay, time to be serious (and this is me, Rozi, talking). I'm going to give be honest opinion.
I'm basically certainly that Xedron's comment on TIB can be said for this. I know that this project has only been in development for a couple days, but looking at what you've shown us from the video and TIB, you clearly don't understand how much effort, dedication, and knowledge it takes to make a mod, especially if you work on it on your own.
I would highly suggest taking a good long break from creating any sort of mod or level pack and start making levels to put on your level topic, and note that I'm not the only one who has said this. In my experience, I released quite a few levels of my own to the forums, followed by creating several levels for Marble Blast Super, and then currently working on my mini mod which will have 30 brand new levels by the first (and probably only) release.
Again, be my guest if you'd like to carry on with development for this mod, but I highly doubt it would go anywhere.

OMG this is soooooo original !

But really, i'm looking forward to both island mods

Textures Changed!!! (marble texture will be changed later)

Voting Time!
Welp,its that time again,

Q1)What level did you like?
Q2)On a scale to 1-10,how much did you like the mod?
Q3)What should i change/add?

Way too early to have a poll like this.

First off, there has only been a couple days of development. Wait until you get enough for even a demo (which should have several quality levels in it at the least).
Second, we need to try the mod for ourselves!

If you must know, I'll answer the poll questions anyway.

1) Can't say I really liked any of the levels. They were poorly textured, there wasn't any sort of good alignment especially because you use the level editor (and is it really that hard to make things look nice?), and none of them looked like they had any level of replayability. There's also that giant finish in that falling marble level.

2) Gotta give it a straight out 1. See the first answer for why I think so.

3) It's too early to say anything at this point because we don't know what you have planned for the future, but what I can say now is that I suggest you start over and/or make a good plan before you continue.

kthxbye

Due to Bad Reviews,i will be temporalily cancel this mod and update my level pack a little with some of my newer levels,so stay tuned about that.

kbye

Go There and be a part of this mod!

There's really no point in having a forums page for a mod like this, especially if you can't find another category to put on there. What you currently have can be discussed on these forums.
I've had experience with mod forums before. Marble Blast Super had like three different ones. It was awful.

Thought you had cancelled this as you had said in the other thread. I'm just going to merge them and unlock the first one.

I did not cancell it forever,just for a while,to get mentally prepared

I will remake the mod!

This mod will now bring yourself back to the old days of MBG Custom levels!

So a mini-mod?

Yes

Personal experience: Don't bother making a bunch of things. Make one good level, people don't care about 10 crap levels but would play 1 good one.

When will you be adding multiplayer?

Weather wrote: When will you be adding multiplayer?

Challenges when

So..

demo?

No?

How about updates?

No?

(._________.)

Im still working on it. Let me tell you about the mod a little.

This mod is a little,nostalgic mod that brings the player to the old days of MBG Custom levels.

The Majority of levels are using interiors from the CLA pack and some are MBG levels,but with something new.

(If anyone can PM me some songs for the mod it would be great!)

I was going to PM you, but it isn't working. Proof!


Did I type it in wrong or something?

I believe his username is alexnico. Usernames used to appear on profile pages, but that was unfortunately changed with the forum update. You can see his username on his MB profile, but to find that you'll need to dig around in the scores list.
Links between the forum and MB profiles would be a nice addition to have.

Sorry about the username / display name mess. Not certain if I can do much to help but I'll put it on the list of things to consider.

Developement is going great!
95% Of the mod is done
That 5% is that we need 2 more musics and that i need to add those secret rocks

Once im done,the dome will be out

95% already??

At this rate it really seems like you're rushing. Take your time. Rushing almost never ends in a good result.

(I've had PacPlayer Beta-Test the mod and his overall rating was 6.5/10)

But...NEWS TIME!!!

I will be adding the Bronze,Silver and Gold versions of every level in the mod!
The button for the thing is the Normal "Play" button but with a Crown added at the beggining of it
Basically,these new "difficulties" are the challlenging versions of every level (by challenging i mean some powerups or interiors deleted),basically a remastering of every level

I would've picked someone else to be a beta tester (no offense to PacPlayer). What I believe people should look for in beta testers is how much they know about what it takes for a level to be high quality. There's two different parts to this. The first is the speedrunners. You want someone who is very skilled at the singleplayer area of Marble Blast so you can get opinions on things like difficulty and replayability.
The other part is for people who like to play eye-appealing and generally well-built levels. You don't want people to play levels that look like they were made by a two year old (cough cough Platform Mayhem cough). Unless you're a master at the level editor like Technostick is, this is one of the reasons why you should learn to use Constructor. Interior quality can also tie to the difficulty part of what a good level looks like.
Oh yeah, and if you haven't figured it out yet, a 6.5/10 is not that good. Many members of the community have set higher expectations. Somewhere around 8/10 at the least.

This sounds exactly like what Gerson did in GLC (and GLC2 for that matter).
