First Level in a year +.

Here's my first level in a little over a year. I don't know what's in style, out of style, i just felt like making the level how i wanted it to be. Let me know what you guys think.
Suggestions and criticism welcome. Also, if you want, you can rate it.

I got the mental picture in my head one day and made it into a level. It's supposed to be simple, nothing too fancy.

Detail is plain, minor tile errors, transition grasses aren't very curvy or such (dont like the style you're using !!), your roads are wacky, cliff is too...boxy?, I like the playbility of the level. Not a fun of those little blockable dirt rocks.

4/10

Then again its been over a year so I can't really blame you. Nice try, keep it up

Look at the very bottom, diagnol to the bottomleft of the house. The two-tiled grass blade is poking at that uh "diagnol connecter" of the grass.

that's all i was really going for.
I didn't care if i got "plain detail" "not enough detail" blah,etc comments, because i was going for mostly outline. i just didn't want to post it with nothing but the outline and the green grass, though i might've liked it better that way. :x

Keep in mind that back when I did do levels a lot of detail was frowned upon because it made the level look cluttered and the "half grass" tiles were BS.

Haha I see. "Half grass" tiles do suck a lot. Post more, I know you're elite

out of style, maybe, i don't know, read the thread title? I'm not trying to be mean, but you REALLY don't have to point out the obvious.

I personally like the detail, but that house could be better.

Alright first one had all these little Nub things on the path that you used like 100000 times so the level Was more like a 2/10 =(. But the 2nd one was cool for your old classic style would look good about a year 1/2 ago. 6.5/10

Edit:I went into your Profile and checked out all your previous threats for levels because I was bored and like to look at levels. (Youll find my on Pulse wondering around looking at levels) I relized well....your old...your styles old lol really gold.
Welcome to 2005 bud. I think youll catch on to the new style quick..

Personally, I prefer the old style to the new, and I don't think what's "trendy" matters here, the new stuff looks terrible if you ask me.

I perfer the old level style, as well. I don't understand some stuff in the "new styled" levels; people just make things with tiles that don't match, or I honestly think, should be called a tile error.
