This follows on from the original Mount DEATH level! please read notes to follow story. and before you say it, its not ice on the lava its a special skiddy substance that doesnt melt but feels like ice heh.

also this level is a good deal easier.

I love your levels, they are very creative & I cannot believe how fast you push them out!!! You are doing great - us Wonderlanders love this. I have to complain about ONE thing, PLEASE don't take this wrong - any chance you could change the title to something other than, "Mount DEATH"??????????????? Mt. ANYTHING but that - my children & grandchildren play this and Wonderland is one game we know the worst violence we see is when Stinky gets killed & stars go everywhere. The name of this level is a definite "I don't think I want to play this!" from my grandchildren! It's a VERY good level & I would like them to try it, but the title is going to scare them away! Don't forget, this IS a family game!!!

PLEASE, please don't take this wrong!!! Just a title change!!!! Anyway, thanks for listening!

Don't get me wrong - I know about Zelda - just like the feeling of "Wonderland" & the word, "death" doesn't seem to fit - YES, it does fit for your level! Just thought maybe you could call it something more fitting to Wonderland - sorry - I'm probably overreacting (nothing new to me)!! So please ignore me if you want - I like your levels - just that ONE title bothers me!!! ANYWAY, thanks for listening BIGZIPZ! :D

maybe your right, this is a family friendly game, then again is seeing the name death mountain, worse than riding a conveyor belt into a pool of lava, or rolling a boulder into a Chomper thingy, or having 10 inch spikes driven through you :) interesting how we as humans seem more concerned with words than images.

dont worry though, while the last 2 may be named death, after completing this level you will make it peaceful once again, and for the 3rd in the trilogy a new name will be approriate, after all death mountain is no longer deathly! (complete level to see what i mean)

Guess you are right - I have a thing about the word "death" - I have seen my little sister, cousin, grandmother & mother die - so "death" is a VERY negative word to me and something I'd rather not see in a level title for Wonderland. Wonderland is a very positive thing in my life right now!- my grandchidren have also had to deal with some of this - as I said, PLEASE don't get me wrong!! This is just a personal feeling & request!!! You are making good levels - please keep 'em coming!

I agree with you Majic.
This forum is made up of all ages from young to old, and Wonderland is meant to be a fun and innocent puzzle game with fantasy characters.
This is not the place for Doom or Quake like titles that are meant specifically for teens and older.

Zelda is not a teen game, thats where i stole the name from. i played zelda when I was little, in fact im some ways its a similar game, especially the dungeon levels.

I would suggest Mount Doom (didn't LeanDemon make a "Temple of Doom" level), except LOTR already took that name...

Yes, you are RIGHT - but FINALLY, we have a game that has not only no violence, but no level titles that IMPLY violence! This forum has been one of the best things to happen to me, my children and grandchildren - this is such a FUN PLACE TO BE!! WE ARE ALL IN "WONDERLAND" here! This is WHY keep talking to people here, making levels, etc. - this IS "Wonderland" - a place we can all escape to when we want to just get away from the real world! That's all!! :D :D

That was harder than i imagined to change, btw i used to be a kid not too long ago, and I think your not giving us enough credit, this is the mtv generation, the fast food generation and the hollywood generation, the pro wrestling generation and the scary movie generation, we can handle scary words

Yes - "Temple of Doom" didn't bother me - it's that DEATH word that bothers me!! Guess I'm hopeless!

WHAT are you talking about??? My son is the same age as you - I KNOW EXACTLY what you're talking about & going through - not easy, I know.(Not to mention I've been there!) Take it easy - life is easy if you just let it be! One day at a time & do the best you can each day - you will be surprised how your life unfolds into the most wonderful experience you could ever imagine - all you have to do is what you know in your deepest heart is right!!

(just trying to help) Majic1, you can go into editor and change the title, and save it, then delete the other title you don't like......then they can play it without seeing the word. It is a great level !! They shouldn't miss it.

Thanks eeyore - I know I can do that - just didn't like seeing that title in our forum. Sorry I got a little carried away on this subject - but, then, that's ME - I go overboard on EVERYthing! I've noticed BIGZIPZ has changed the title - WHAT A NICE GUY! :) (However, that was probably easier than listening to me complain!) THANK YOU BIGZIPZ! Sorry for all the commotion I caused! :oops: And now - BACK to Wonderland!! :D
