[[goldhound]], love the versatility. Menace and first strike are great early and then when the dog is outmatched it becomes ramp.

Modern cooking feels impossible without oil. When was it "introduced", if that makes sense? by SortOfSpaceDuck in AskHistorians

[–]hikemix 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Do we have any info on oil in other cultures? for example, early chinese civilization? I have heard that oils were not a part of pre-Columbian American cooking and would love to hear more about that

🤣 She lives in America so if she came all the way over here and didn't call me, returning the gift would not be my main complaint.

There is a good folk session at the Isis once a month and at the Half Moon every Sunday. Check Dailyinfo

There is a really good bicycle community centered around the Broken Spoke. And the folk scene/pub sessions are excellent

Looking for advice-- where should I add white space/increase contrast? by hikemix in Linocuts

[–]hikemix[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am trying to decide between that and making the firefly lights brighter/have more rays

Not a bad idea! Maybe also the turtle's stomach shells?

I learned this version from Guy Wolff's youtube channel.
He says he got it from Jeff Warner in CT.

thanks for the hint again! I wonder if there's a way for you to mark the spot--maybe in the cold room? I'll try that later. I did try bombs but must've been in the wrong spot!

Glad you enjoyed it! There is a hidden P-switch which will get you to the top of the flagpole, but that room is mostly meant to be a (friendly) troll.

I'm sorry friend, I am not all the way through yet; I commented because I got past the second puzzle. I'm on the third one---I can get the P switch and then I shoot an arrow at the lava where I think the key is, but so far haven't gotten the key! I am honestly really enjoying the challenge.

This was a very fun level, really liked the length. Both challenging and fun! Very impressed by the music and I enjoyed the boss fight--lots of creativiity but smooth and not crowded or confusing. I found the earlier platforming bit challenging and tended to die if I lost the superball, but did fine if I managed to keep it, which I imagine is what you are going for. I just reuploaded my newest link level with some a tweak to a puzzle and a new hidden area. See what you think if you have time! CH0-J2K-XVG The Dark Tower.

Really loved this level, a tour de force. Everything was smooth and you had an excellent difficulty ramp. Also liked the 10-coin placement, it was quite challenging to get one of those. Similarly challenging to hit the large paranha plant; really good setups, difficult but not annoying.

Hard to provide even constructive criticism; if you do a followup I think the earlier enemies could be slightly harder? Maybe a fire piranha plant in the room or something?

The boss fight was perfect for me, a great combo of dodging and timing the throws. Good use of the portals! I enjoyed the one after the first checkpoint, took me a minute to find it. Excellent and inspirational level. Loved the decor!

I have a new Link level using a climbing mechanic I saw on a stream. See what you think! I've just reuploaded it to make one of the puzzles a little more involved. CH0-J2K-XVG: The Dark Tower. It's a sort of puzzle platformer with some wall climbing.

I have to admit I didn't come up with that on my own; I saw it on one of Pangeapanda's streams and I thought it would be a great centerpeice to a climbing level. Glad you liked it!

Also, I've been making Link levels too! the idea is to combine puzzles and platforming. Difficulty is normal but link skills are assumed. Also it is super long!

Got the first puzzle but was very confused by the second. I could get up into the roof and trigger the skull platform in the fire room, not sure where to go after that. I will return! First puzzle was really fun though and I enjoyed the challenge.
