Description Shiny new DDA! 2000 frames, and would you believe it it only took me two days.


A few thoughts:

- Structurally, this is similar to my previous (unviewed, cough cough [nmaps.net]) dda: lots of thwumps and non-propulsion bounceblocks. I like it; it's alternately methodical and exciting.

- There's a vague quality to a lot of dda's that often gets overlooked, which is the way the player moves around; it may be graceful, jittery, tentative, etc. I find it just as important, and more difficult to manipulate, than close calls. What do you think?

- I think that there's a lot of ground to be covered with tilesets and one-ways in dda's; not that there's lots of room for innovation or anything, but I think it's the current best way to make dda's that feel fresh.

- Thus, I feel like making more medium-size tile-based dda's in the future. Additionally so, this dda was fun to make and is probably my personal favourite so far. Enjoy!

Excuse me.

I meant joe_kapow, not jeffkillian. Seven years is a long time.
Reminds me of jeffkillian. 5/5, and well-deserved.

hmm

it was fairly good.
i would like to see a kra from you

this is extreme

so many great close calls. i really loved the use of the bounce blocks too. 5aved

Exciting

Probably one of the best DDAs that aren't KRA

A speed demo. As far as DDAs go this is pretty good, although there were a number of portions which seemed rather slow. I don't think it deserves a flawless score but still, good job.
