#1. Timed Maze: Thought of that too. Cool idea, isn't it?
#2. Evil Grin: Agreed. I think Cap't of the Guard would agree on that too. Or maybe he would think (not agree, I don't think this) that there should be a "ha ha ha" smiley. 
What I was not planning on was Polish Falcon not figuring out what that meant. Basically, Mr. Falcon, I can't get the java compiler because I don't have that much time on my hands. It's 9 MB's!
Why don't we all call Polish Falcon "molotov cocktail"? (You don't want to know. :))
And Cap't of the Guard can be "kitty boy"! (You REALLY don't want to know. :D)

Has anybody thought of what would happen if Microsoft and Apple merged?
And they said Microsoft was a monopoly...

And now, something useful :): OK, aschaaf. How about the key to Crowley's Mines is in the tech level? As for the entrance, what about the "Iceconoclasm" FG merged with the "Unemployed in Greenland only Scarier" PX with the "Parched Earth" BG and the level layout from "Tombs of Death"? Confusing, isn't it...
And last, I still think that we should make a... WHOA! MAJOR IDEA! How about an "invisible-FG-but-confusing-BG-tileset-used-with-a-timed-maze" level? Doom to all... <insert evil laughter here>

Crowley's mines and the 9th kingdom levels should be insanley hard, but not THAT hard.
Maybe we should have "The Land of Insanityย" that would have levels like that, but would be completly optional.

Yeah... After defeating Xichra, can you continue playing? That would be a good time for The Land of Insanityย. Or, even better, just a secret kingdom hidden somewhere, like Cap't Crowleys Mines. And the V-Blade spell can be there! Then there is a reason to go through it. And I know where to put the secret level. Right after Xichra.
OOH! Maybe we can call it "Monkey Land"! If we did, I know someone with a song for those levels...
<Polish Falcon falls to floor laughing> 
Heh heh heh... I wonder if there is a user called "Nickodemus" or maybe "N" or "NRK". He would fall to the floor laughing too.
TS2000 still rules.

I'm working on a level that could lead to the mines.

HI!!!!!
Can I join your map? I have real great map ideas But no map making skills.
I have A great idea for the timed maze You could have a branch at the begining where a bunch of keys are stored Ex.
_____I< Rock barrier.
Key I< Rock barrier.
_____I< Rock barrier.
And every time you grab a key that unlocks a diferent door in a passage And behind the door is the next button. And its timed so you need to run!!
Here are some ideas I've been having to spur level makers:
1. An Ocean level--with sunken city, coral reef, etc.
2. In a dark woods level or something, make a REALLY big jump. You have to do a running jump and even then you fall for a long time and think you're going to die, but then you catch on to a ledge and pull yourself up. This has to be the next to last level. Mark my words. It's side scrolling tradition. So you pull yourself up, there's a save point, some ziridium brine (purple liquid), and then you enter a really hard level, like a castle. The ledge could be the windowsill of a castle. Hmmm...I wonder where I got that from... If anyone can tell me, they've been playing games for a long time.
3. A Boss battle on a broken bridge...would it be possible to change the sprites in the middle of the battle so first its a normal bridge and then it breaks and you both go falling? Again, I'm taking a lot of ideas from the game mentioned above. Oh well.
4. A tavern! Make lots of people there, telling rumors and hints about how to find secrets and stuff like that. And you could make a brothel. No, please! Don't take away my karma! I didn't mean it! Honest!

When you complete a level, stuff it , and e-mail it to me.
I'll put it on the (url="http://"http://www.frontiernet.net/~pschaaf/obw/levels.html")levels list(/url) then.
When we have enough, we'll merge them into one file.

AVN- I was looking at one of my mine levels, and I saw that the tree-trunk/ice wall spells would ruin one of the best parts.
Can we make ferazel not have those spells until after Captin Crowley's mines?

Use ยDefine FG tilesย to make it a normal wall.
If you need real spikes elsewhere, maybe we could make a Lost Mines tilset.
There are some tiles I'd like to have tiles such as:
Pickaxe
Skull
Goldish rock

Eldar, the songs are very nice, but PLEASE, I'M BEGGING YOU! USE DIFFERENT INSTRUMENTS!!!
It reminds me of those little handheld nintendos.
Otherwise, the actual songs are very good. (I don't think we should use Battle it isn't Ferazel's Wandish) I like Peace. It's good for replacing the "Boss Dead" song. And chaos is ok too. But kindof weird. (But I could show you "Buffoons go Boom")

Yes, it is legal to write that without registering the copywrite.

OK, I deleted them from the server.
I'll post them with copyright notices later.
