Gliding Canyon Galaxy


Star 1: Coasting the Canyon Walls

A Design By MoreCowbell:
Mario lands on a fenced area like that at the beginning of Wild Glide. However, this area is on top of a very tall pillar of rock. Surrounding this pillar are many others of different shapes and sizes. On either side of them are two HUGE canyon walls that are even taller, and block the view on both sides. The background is unexpected: A deep blue space with planets and stars. Mario sees the jibberjays and fluzzard. The jays give Mario the usual lecture, and if possible, let's skip the tutorial (Pain in the ass)

Mario begins his glide, and the first section is getting by these pillars. Turning left and right is key here, and if Mario hits one, it won't be a happy ending. Way below Mario is a river moving in the same direction as him, with trees all over the ground. This lower part will play a major role in star 2. Mario is slowly lowering as he gets by the pillars, and evenually he is about halfway down the walls. Now he must travel over and under big pieces of rock that are connected to the walls (Think of the end of Wild Glide with those crystal thingies)

The way these pieces of rock are set force Mario to lower quite a bit, bringing him near the ground. Now there is a huge wall of rock in the way, but at the bottom is a little cave for Mario to enter. Now there is a tight tunnel, and with the river right below him, Mario is going to have some trouble. Small crystals act as obstacles, as well as rocks sticking out of the ground. Eventually this tunnel opens up in to a huge underground pond, with crystals and small rock pillars everywhere. When Mario enters this area, he goes over the edge of a waterfall (where the river was leading to) that leads into the pond. Surrounding the pond are rock walls, with the only opening at the other end. Mario has two choices: The difficult left path, or the easier right. (Even though the pond is round, the paths are formed due to the rock pillars and tall crystals. If Mario takes the difficult left path, he has the opportunity to grab a comet medal. Both paths lead to the other side of the pond, which opens up to the end of the planet. Mario goes through the gate and the mission is complete.


There's my design! If art is REALLY needed I may do some, but it will be hard. As always feedback is appreciated

Sounds good, but aren't crystals also used in Gliding Inferno? It would be a bit rehashed for Fluzzard galaxies to always have crystals in my opinion.

I personally like them TBH, I don't care if it's reused.

Hmmm... crystals seem unfitting for a lava galaxy... I mean, they naturally came to my mind when I thought underground lake. Also, they can just be decoration if necessary. The main focus is on the rocks.

This is tagged "a design by mc" for a reason :P

Anyway it seems too complicated, and sounds kinda tough for world 2

TBH both of them have good and bad. I do think it would be cool to have several different paths to take to actually complete the level, but at the end they all meet.

It's a fluzzard galaxy, which are generally quite simple. It has three main, diverse sections with increasing difficulty. It also focuses on visual effects and the beauty of the canyon.

The design is rather vague, you should provide pictures.

Yeah, it's kinda hard to picture and I'm a bit confused... I kinda get the general idea though.

Sorry for posting in the wrong thread, but I do plan on providing a drawing on my design. I have it all planned out in my head.

Agent and fnar: which one?

I think they mean all three parts. I'm used to design vagueness, so it is not too hard for me picture your Gliding Canyon design. Drawings would still be great though.

I'm going to edit this with more detail soon. Hopefully people will actually see it as a decent outline eventually :P

Ah, good. Right now, it's pretty much impossible to choose either one, or to merge them.

There's always a light at the end of the tunnel. Of course, it's usually an oncoming express train.

:/ Actually we could merge them fairly easily..

My only idea in terms of merging is taking some features from mg3's and putting those in my outline as details, but I'm set on this outline

Okay, so I finally made some concept art for this fairly simple design. Unfortunately my scanner didn't read the color too well, so it's a bit light. Also, you may have trouble reading my labels, but if you look closely you should be able to. Anyway, without further ado, here's the art

Basic outline:

[image]

Section One, Bird's Eye View:

[image]

I had a front view for section 1, but it looked pretty odd and I figured it would only confuse.

Section 2, Bird's Eye View:

[image]

As you can see it says Section 3 on the right. That's to show how section 2 goes right into section 3. (Section one and section 2 are also one big section by the way, I just wanted to split the art in two halves, hence 1 and 2)

Section 3, Bird's Eye View:

[image]

This is the "indoor" section that is above the lake. There are giant crystals and rock pillars that form almost a maze. Those long arrows you see through the section are to show different paths Mario can take. There is also a comet medal near the bottom.

So there's my art. I know it's simple, but it's a short level with a simple concept. Also something to note: I plan on having star two be a purple comet with a twist. You won't be gliding. Instead, you'll be using the ice flower while being chased by cosmic clones with a time limit. This will take place on the river.

I also have some art finished for Humongous Fungus, and it just needs color. (Hopefully I can do a better job with that this time)

-MC

Edit: My apologies for the double post

Erm, "short" is a bit of an understatement. That level would last about 20 seconds :P
