New Level (Advanced) - Venice

Liz Mayhew · Post by **Liz Mayhew** » Tue Jan 03, 2006 4:56 pm

These two levels are the same. One is in normal view, the other is in 3D so that you can enjoy the scenery as if from a gondola. I suggest you play the normal view first then you know what to do with the 3D version.

The texture file is Janetgalle's lovely orange theme, which made me think of Venice - hence the level. If you already downloaded the orange theme you don't need to do it again.

Very nice Liz! Enjoyed the look in both perspectives! Thanks for the double fun!

A really nice looking and playing level, Liz! The textures are beautiful, JG! Thanks for giving us the option of playing the level with 3D, without it or to do both. I really enjoyed the tour. Thanks for the fun!

I played both ways and then got busy with children. I loved both! Thank you for doing them!

These were AWESOME Liz!! I liked the whole look of it. I did both of them and I loved how each one looked!

Thanks for a neat level!!

Those were both beautiful Liz, but I am sure glad I did the regular one first. The 3D view just gets me so disoriented, I usually get lost rather quickly.
Thanks for using the texture, it looked like I hope it will.... if I ever make a level with it!

That was great fun, Liz - and the Venice theme is perfect, JG.

I don't really like the 3-D levels. I've played very few of them. But this was great, having the normal one first made the 3D much easier.

Wish they could all be like this - hint, hint - pretty please

It really did look like Venice Liz. The texture was wonderful JG. I did the regular one first and still managed to get lost in the 3D one. I found my way in the end though, even if a bit dizzy.

I wanted to say thank you too for giving us the option of playing both ways. Your level looks great. I did the regular one first and then just wanted to experience the 3d look - I get dizzy too but it was still very cool to ride along like that.

Beautiful Lizzie, I really enjoyed the view.

No 3D for me hon, I'm dizzy enough.

Hi Liz,

These were really awesome! Such beautiful textures. (Thanks to Janetgalle!!)

I am probably one of the few who really enjoy 3D. Especially with levels like these. It really was so much nicer to view it "up close and personal."

Thanks so much for the fun!

Liz --

I have only played the 3D version (thanks to wonderlandlover for steering me to this post) and I really liked it. This is my favorite 3D level yet! I agree that the regular version should be in the kids section, but when played on its own the 3D version is more challenging.

I know that many people have not come to understand that they really like the 3D puzzles (despite first impressions) but I think this level may go some way to changing people's minds, or at least point us in the right direction for figuring out what works well and what doesn't in 3D. You may want to consider posting the 3D version in the "adult" section and invite comments, as some people may not find this here.

Many comments may be of the "I don't like 3D" kind, but I remain hopeful that if we continue to play around with this very different format, it can develop into something that people can appreciate in its own right.

Thanks for your kind comments everyone.

Steve - OK I will post this on the Puzzle/Action forum just to see if anyone else likes it.
