Hi everyone, first of, thanks again for the great feedback from SHIFT here at NG.
As for SHIFT2 I have released the level editor on the blog post link below

Feb. 19, 2008 | 8:48 PM weeeners says:

Nice! I mad a pretty kick-ass level! Maybe you guys will see it in the actual game... ;)


Feb. 19, 2008 | 11:51 PM Teshla says:

Ok, that is nice, but don't become too static. Add something new, it won't be interesting to play this game with nothing new.


Feb. 19, 2008 | 11:59 PM Teshla says:

Uh, sorry, you actualy do have something new :)

Lol, nice chain letter gag.

Thought I'd put in my comment here for improvement on the main character.
The character is cool, but it needs more life. Can you add more frames for the jumping and falling (rather than just the 2) and also add it so the character hugs the wall when you run into it, rather than the static run.
Oh, and maybe for shift 3, add bigger grid size. I can see the levels getting cluttered on such a small scale.

Feb. 20, 2008 | 10:54 AM The-EXP responds:

The graphics are all subject to change, the version of the editor has a preview engine attached to it for testing purposes, so I'm still considering what it will finally look like. I'll definitely take into consideration your idea for wall hugging, but one of the issues is having the character figure out what a wall is, as the whole game is now based on not only an inverted collision system, but also a rotated level collision system too (for the gravity flippers) so it al gets very complex trying to get the little guy to do anything you want without tonnes of tinkering, but i'll give it my best shot.., as for gridsize, it could be increased to slightly more, but 12 by 12 I found to be the best line between complexity and playability. Theres very little you can't do on the 12 by 12. Hope you liked it though.

Wha..! JPI the falling animation is 5 frames you ungreatful little...


Feb. 23, 2008 | 2:17 PM Michaelas10 says:

I'm sorry, but I don't like the direction where the sequel is going. Rather than a rehash of the first one, I'd expect to see at least several new enemies, including flying ones, a life system (3 red hearts on the corner will go absolutely perfect), and generally more variety. Also, get rid of the sliding, it makes it look unstable. I want to be as much surprised by this as I was when I first realized about the shift function.

I'll try designing some levels though.

Too bad i'm not good with level designing :(


Mar. 1, 2008 | 7:51 PM darkblue6676 says:

Mar. 5, 2008 | 11:33 PM ngfan14 says:

Mar. 13, 2008 | 7:55 PM Lambinvoker says:

In my first play-through I found a bug that got me stuck outside of the game. I took a screenshot of where I was able to shift into the outside boundary.

OH TEH NOES!!!!
THE CC IS A LIE!!!


Mar. 18, 2008 | 1:36 PM Nintony58 says:

There are some bugs, for example: I was testing my level in Shift-ed and when I hit the door I was teleported to the end of the game (the one without the snakes) and another time where I was fooling around and ended up jumping then Shifting through the bottom of the level. Both of these happened in the level maker, but they only happened once. This game is great theres hours of replayablity and the level maker is a great feature. Over all, I love the game and the good definitly out-weighs the bad.


Mar. 18, 2008 | 7:18 PM dogstile says:

i just noticed some guy quoteing a review thinking my name was righto, and then you called me righto, weird


Mar. 19, 2008 | 3:31 PM ocwil says:

thanks

gr ocwil


Mar. 19, 2008 | 5:43 PM Dks60 says:

LOL !!


Mar. 19, 2008 | 7:07 PM Axel0 says:

Hey! Axel here! =D It ended.


Mar. 21, 2008 | 12:03 PM edern says:

Sadly I'm getting the same problem as ocwil.
Everytime I click play game I'm taken to the last level of SHIFT.
I have tried loading the game on different websites, but nothing seems to work and I really enjoyed the first game, so not being able to play sucks.
If you know why this is happening and can fix it that would be amazing or if you could tell me anything I can do that would rock aswell.
Also just to mention I'm on a mac (fully updated with CS3 and all necessary players)
Just thought I'd tell you because a few other people have had this problem aswell.


Mar. 21, 2008 | 2:12 PM DrSenorB says:

Not a comment about shift 2, but i just wanted to tell you that i'm a big fan of basically every game you have made. Keep em coming


Mar. 21, 2008 | 2:16 PM dogstile says:

don't they notice there charicter is different from shift one?


Mar. 22, 2008 | 7:17 AM S1303 says:

THE CC IS A LIE =P


Mar. 25, 2008 | 9:15 PM Ertyguy says:

To odern and ocwil. The big secret is (I had to PM EXP for this) Stand to the right of the hole and wait...
