user level downloads

I think it would be cool, if there would be an ingame manager to download and vote user created levels. :)

That would indeed be nice, but I fear it would need a horrenduous amount of work and administration etc.

what we need is an updated and cleaner version of one of the threads on here already that details everyones user-made levels. except it needs to be written concisely and very easy to readl, stickied, and regularly updated.

i think it should be very simple, ie - USER LEVELS/ MAPS/ ?? > Map Name (A-Z) > optional description from designer and/or players, about each map, as time goes on.

perhaps ill look into that myself over the coming weeks and months and layout a simple thrad design for it...

@AWS: If you have any ideas to improve this thread I’d be happy to implement them. I admit that it may not be “clean” since I write more from heart and less from brain ;)

@Bonobo.
yes, in the next few weeks or so (after im a little more settled in my new place) ill start working on a simple, clean, and easy to read version of what you have done all the hard work on! :)
ill collaborate with you if you like so we can get a nice little thread going that people can understand. when ive made a first draught, ill show you and we can see what we like and dont like etc...

its boring stuff, but also kinda fun and definitely worth it for the user-made levels part of the game. easy access = more playing...

Well, Rudolf, thank you, and it’s all because you folks rock, too. Seems we’re all in it for the love of it. I just wish I currently had more time to play & test.

Indeed! Sometimes it is spelled as RAWK as well. Have you seen school of rock btw? It is used in the same way in that movie. Think Dio and black sabbath and similar bands.

As much as I like the idea, I see one problem (aside from all the programming & hosting hassle):

Eufloria is, in effect, two people: Alex and Rudolf (forgive me if I leave out the music designer here), they’d have to check every user level for “cleanness” and, where necessary, make changes. Also, there’s some chance that they also will be expected to take responsibility for every crash that occurs with a user level, don’t you think so, too?

So, I for one would prefer if they concentrated on real game improvements, even if it’s only to accept the return key for “OK” <wink wink, nudge nudge>


<edit>

Or think about the world “quality” … Alex & Rudolf would have to create some quality management for these user-submitted levels … some people would be sad because their levels wouldn’t be included, or other people would be disappointed because of too hard/too easy levels, etc., etc.

As it is now it’s all in the responsibility of the user.
