The Invasion of Deserto, EvilMike’s new single player level pack, is a new classic. The story behind the pack is very simple, yet it’s one of the better stories out there. It’s not another “Devan kidnapped Eva, go save her.” Nobody saves princesses these days, anyway. Mainly because they don’t get kidnapped anymore. Anyway…

The Invasion of Deserto is a very unique level pack because it attempts to mix puzzle, action, and obstacle crossing elements together. You’ll never know what the levels will throw your way next. This makes the pack very hard to beat, but not so hard that it becomes frusturating. The perfect degree of difficulty in a computer game.

This level pack experiments with having you go back through levels that you’ve already visited to find new areas and challenges. For example, you’ll return to The Temple with a fly carrot that you find in The Pit. The music is carefully chosen, and while it doesn’t always fit perfectly, EvilMike managed to choose some of the best tunes out there.

Above is a screenshot of me heroically killing a purple bat. And for those of you who absolutely must know, the shot ended up killing the bat. It dropped nothing. How depressing.

I’m stuck at the temple level. ;D

If you want hints, just message me and I will give you advice in a semi-cryptic manner.

Oh, and all reviews are welcome, even ones that are a few sentences. Episode 2 is under way and progressing at quite a nice rate. Reviews motivate me to work faster.

So far, nobody has given better hints about their lvl packs than OL with RHG: TF. ;-) Let’s see i Mike is more generous. :-P

LRK, I’ve DLed your tileset. do I have to review it now, or can I ignore the ad? ;-P

It’s a great pack, everyone should download it. It makes me want to stop ignoring the pack I started to make.

WR: Sure. Reviews are always nice. =P

Well, for anybody who wants to know, EvilMike’s hints are pretty good, at least I finished the temple level now after asking him in #jj2 about it yesterday.

Come to think of it – I’m stuck at the next level. ;D

(no hints needed, I just need to try better and not get hurt or fall into the death pits all the time :P )
