I live for level editors.
I’ll keep this short, as Johns excellent post deserves some more time near the top of the blog, but this week in my spare time after working hours (Need I say I enjoy what I do?) I’ve been tinkering with he SHIFT2 Level editor. Level editors (both using and making them) are probably the best thing about anything in a video game for me, but how much do they mean to you people? Comment reply your opinions of level editors for games - Do you like them? Do you not bother with them? I want to hear your thoughts.
Love them. Every game I make has a level editor, even if it’s not shown to the public.
I LOVE Level Editors. They are a REALLY big selling point in a game, online or console. I Usually spend quite a bit of time on them, and would LOVE to see you put a Level Editor in Shift2. That would make the world complete!
I love level editors. When I really love a game, I’ll go back and play some levels to challenge my friends with.
Smash Bros is a good example of how a level editor can transform a whole game.
Yes I was going to mention Smash Brothers - not only is the level editor a welcome addition, but it’s wha theyre doing with it community wise is what lends it the Nintendo sparkle :p
Level editors rock!!! Would be great to make a Shift 2. If ya do make it have a story rather then just a bunch of levels and a level editor mode please.
SSBB ya,Its a good game,Let alone the LE.
Its fun to make you’re own level,But it its too hard,Or too basic,Its not fun.
I would say hold down Shift or something and then you get white/Black.
And power ups would be cool too.
I have to be honest.I rarely ever use a level editor.
Timesplitters future perfect had an awesome level editor.
Online games get flooded with loads of crap though… You’d have to have a decent rating system. Nutty McNuts was an ok one…
How about the ‘Halo 3′ level editor? You guys every try and flip an Elephant?
The Halo 3 Forge mode was awesome, I never did anything too spectacular in it, but my friend Joel made a Halo themed basketball game out of it, impressive stuff.
Level editors always get me excited for games. Some times they give me the most re playability. The first one I ever used was Build for Duke 3D. Since then I’ve latched more onto console editors (Time Splitters, Far Cry, Halo, Tony Hawk, ect.) I just started tinkering with the Crysis editor, helping make maps for my buddies Blood Money Mod.
So yeah, I’m a fan of level editors.
If you do, and make an Online Database for it, like John did in BRV, make sure to let us search by:
Name (Creator)
Rating (out of 5)
Popularity
It’s too bad that John didn’t put in a search by name. I couldn’t find my own level! Not to sound rude, just some constructive criticism.
Never use them.
I never use level editors. Building my own levels just isn’t my thing, I want them prebuilt for me. For example, the ever-popular Line Rider has never interested me in the slightest.
The only good thing I find about level editors is the community aspect. I can log on to a game and play lots of great maps made by other people.
never use them might once in a while but not really
Level editors are teh pwnzor
this game is okay, portal is MUCH BETTER
I really like level editors. If you give game players a chance to edit (create) their own levels it is always very useful and will make your games more attractive to a wider public.
