So I got Stretchmo :D
Apparently you can make 3D levels for the first time in the series! So I made this thing. It requires a lot of thinking outside the box, so if you’ve got Stretchmo you should try it out!
If I were you, I’d expect more puzzle spam. Remember back when I was obsessed with Pushmo World for a while? Yeah, that’s likely to happen again.
3D Stretchmo levels are so much fun to make!
The first one, Cloudy Romp, isn’t much of a puzzle as an adventure. Pressing the switch at the bottom stretches the little floating blocks into big clouds! Just a simple idea I expanded on. (PUNS)
Mosh Block (top right) isn’t too hard once you get off the ground... but good luck doing that! Because of the camera, it’s almost impossible to see how to get up.
I especially like the tree one (Timber Trunk), but for some reason it needs two QR codes...? Probably because I ENTIRELY overdid it with having to climb the outside, inside, and foliage of the tree.
I am enjoying making these Stretchmo levels waaaaaaaaay too much. It’s like functional voxel art!
I wanted Sun’s Blaze to be a bit more colorful, but that affected the puzzle. So I stuck with this, and while it looks and plays good as is, I feel like I could have done better. However, I’m really happy about how the flares look.
Twin Falls was directly inspired by Super Mario Galaxy! These floating falls have always captured my imagination. The waterfalls would have been another block thicker, until I remembered it’d be nigh unplayable with 90° camera control. With this, at least you can see which block Mallo is approaching from the other side.
Swirling Light originally started horizontally, but that turned out to be a boring puzzle; I couldn’t do anything to spruce it up. So I turned it on its side, and now it’s a tricky one. I love the side views on the card, it’s all swoosh and swirl.
I made Ringed Planet at 2am the night before an important meeting. When I came up with the idea, I just HAD to make it a reality - and just look how it turned out! It’s possibly my favorite level yet, but it’s also the hardest of this batch.
...what, you don’t think I’ll make more? I’m already working on a project, whatchu talkin’ ‘bout
