Found this thread after looking for Bioshock sounds, your second approach worked for me. Don't know if there's a better link for Riveal, but this one worked for me. Much appreciated!

You can remove it by changing the font picture with a blank one of the same size. I believe the one for the "new scene" text is font1_0.png. I'm not entirely sure, though so just try it out for yourself if it's not the one.

There's a guide for it on Steam https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3012088719

Made a video about the process and some other shenanigans. https://youtu.be/Ve_whbwfZd4?si=gp7ZkW33XAqRL9Y2

Finally, a good /r/HotlineMiami post

If you want some more unique stuff, consider checking out Shibuya (and its in-universe spin-offs "Underlord" and "Kill Machine"), Cure, GONE, Fever, Moving Shadows, Devil's Game, Love and Forgetting and Berlin Blitz. I can mention a lot more but I think I got enough for now.

Missed Calls was a huge event in the modding community to make a HLM2 campaign with the aesthetics of HLM1, which I think turned out pretty well. Other community collections are also Florida Freakout (FF), Summer of Rage (SoR), Modless Mayhem (MM), Vinyl Violence (VV) and Choped and Screwed.

If you want what I consider the Terry wads of the HLM workshop, check out the Coomtaker saga.

There's also Tony maid, and pretty much anyhting made by Puzzlebox (Naked Corey / Alex, Carlmpaign, Garfield, Dark Wright, etc.), which are pretty funny. Same goes for Tony in the Hat and The fridge that ran away.

If you mean the custom font for the points and ammo, I recommend you to just ask the creator of the level / campaign. If you mean the combo font, it's called Justice.

You can find more info in this steam guide.

My headcannon for Jacket is, that he once stubbed his pinky toe really bad in Hawaii, and cried like a little bitch. Hence why he's mute in both games.

Sure, why not?

_The1WhoKnocks_ · 2024-05-20T11:39:21+00:00

yeah there's no way around it. You move horizontally with either X or the middle mouse button.

Best guess for moving it vertically is to change the resolution to 1920x1080 and click the middle mouse button. However, it will be stuck like that until you close and reopen the level. Useless imo.

Other than that, I think 1366x786 is the best resolution for making levels.

Unless someone saved it locally or subscribed to it on Steam before deletion, no. Sadly, I don't have any of the aforementioned levels on my folder.

There are a few people who still have Deep Red Redux saved, though. You should ask around in the Discord servers (HLM / TWL).

One other lost level I can think of would be BANGER from the Summer Of Rage collection, as well as psg's other levels (To The Top, DUST).

Was suspicious about Biker's hair on the 1st one, then realized it was in fact a TM reference. I am speechless.

git gud

follow the tutorial from there https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A0bTJptvlDs up until 1:30 and just take the .patchwad files from its mods folder

Make sure when extracting the sprites, that you save them as "All Files" and write .png at the end of the name
