Request to post modified custom levels
by RJ Smith · in Marble Blast · 05/26/2005 (3:25 pm) · 2 replies
Greetings fellow artists! I would like to hear your feedback.
First, the background: I have been inspired by my older sister and young niece. They are having a hard time progressing beyond Intermediate level. They find most of the Custom levels too hard. Their complaint is that Marble Blast "just isn't fun anymore." I have created a level from scratch (see my recent thread "A Walk in the Park") and have modified more than 30 existing levels:
PROBABLY ONE OR MORE OF YOUR CUSTOM LEVELS HAS BEEN MODIFIED for their use -- geared for the Beginner/Intermediate player.
If it's okay with Alex and all the wonderful artists on here, I WOULD LIKE TO SHARE THE MODIFIED VERSIONS WITH THE PUBLIC -- post them on the GG Marble Blast User Levels page. Please let me know what you think. If you DO NOT want your levels to be included in this project, I understand. Please note: the "Artist" field still has your name (although a few of them were blank). Also be aware that there's little risk of your original work being inadvertently deleted; these modified level names have been changed accordingly. Example: a modified Gauntlet becomes Gauntlet (Light) and filename gauntlet_lt.mis
Thank you to all the artists, map makers, and editors for making Marble Blast an even better game. These modified levels will make the game accessible to even more players!
Let me know what you think. -RJ

I think that this is a great idea for helping to make some of the more difficult custom levels accessible to beginner users. You might consider making light versions of some of the original Marble Blast levels as well.
