I know that the Orange/Blue planet in the middle is Aether from Metroid Prime two (or something like that), so maybe a Metroid level would work there.
Also, some DooM 3 levels would work better here than in World 4, seeing as World 4 doesn't have a space theme.
Do i smell an epic second battle with the cyberdemon?
And yes,I was thinking doom 3 as well,
But we'd need mars.
Unless it's already on there and i am not noticing it.

Planet Idznak.

I added Idznak to the map:

Do you think the shadows on the planets need to be adjusted to face the same way as Earth? You know, to look a little less awkward (even if the universe is supposedly intended to be in a shambles)?
UPDATE: I smoothed out the purple lines a bit on the bottom left ring. Also, when you use this in the game, you might want to enlarge it to about 1000x800 so that we have enough room for the map icons.

that map is good, but the programmers have already begun to program the three planet map into the game. the planets are going to share levels. i just want to make that clear to every one , the planets will share levels!

You're all so impatient! I thought the contest was until February, Impish!

I worked extra hard for the last few days. Put the planets into this.

Wow, excellent job! However, you need to erase the whitish/reddish at the very top of the planet Earth.
Now we can actually put Castle Wolfenstein into Germany!

Thanks... though Impish's impatience killed my motivation to put the planets in and stuff. If Impish decides to use this instead of the other one, though, I will; I still have the PSD file.

All right, I updated it!

I added the planets, including Idznak from Skullmonkeys (shouldn't hurt to add that), all of which have a distorted effect around them. I also added the star Sirius near Earth.
RisingManes
10th January 2009 - 01:33 PM
That works rather nicely, mr3rious, though it's a shame to see the stars distorted... ah well.
I really wanted to show off, huh? Ah well. At least this means a better map! (I would've liked to see fading effects around the planet.)

The map looks realy good, better than the first draft! Also, are the stars distorted because of Legion or something?

All those planets are swiped from different galaxies, whose difference in energy levels are causing the starfields to warp (that's the best explanation I could come up with

).

Lol, Planet Idznak. It's nice to have silly space levels balance out the other serious ones.
Space Channel 5, Space Quest, Skullmonkeys and Earthworm Jim VS Halo, Metroid, Contra, and Turrican. This should be interesting.

Wow. So it can be assumed that World 9 (The Edge of Beyond) would be the largest, or at least, second largest world map in the game, next to the Mushroom Kingdom?

Not sure. I just posted a large image so that the devs can resize it as they see fit.

I figured we could use Ripple Star, because it would be a means to fight Zero. I also added Mars, which looks pretty damn close to Stroggos.
Clark

Y'know it would be cool if there was a level in space itself (as in not on a planet). It would also be cool if there was some sort of LIFTOFF! level on Earth to kick off the world.

I really like how the maps looking it really give the affect of plants being fused into the same universe. That being said I know that heart shape place is tied to a game but it really looks off and doesn't match the feel of the image.

Wait, are Kirby levels going to be in this World, or World 8? I honestly think it should be in the Edge of Beyond, but then again, the place is apparently getting cramped...

You mean Ripple Star from Kirby 64?
Yeah, I know. But it was the only good image I could find.

Here's a different map without Ripple Star. I also added a different image of Mars, along with its moons Phobos and Deimos.
UPDATE: I got RS to look a little better with everything else (at least that's how I see it), but I don't want to post it directly onto this thread, so I'll just link it.

Maybe even Dark Samus making an appearance?

Welcome to the Reactor, Razanak. Read the guidelines and stuff. Yeah, I'd like to see a Metroid Prime level, too.

Are all the planets in a collision course? It would be good to prevent it!
There could be a level that blended aspects of all planets (landscapes, enemies).

I don't know if Tallon IV is planned, but Frigate Orpheon has been talked about, complete with the Parasite Queen.

Kirby levels will pretty much be in Realm of Nintendo only, with some exceptions being a fusion level in World 4 and a level or two in World 5's secret map.

Did you really mean World 4 ben? Cause I can hardly think of a kirby stage in the Demon Realm! You actually meant the Helberd level, which will be a regular stage in world 5.

DOOMstar is a Kirby/DOOM fusion level planned for World 4, which will have a demonic Dedede as the boss.

Nevertheless I just wanted to suggest the Contra III stage we recently saw on youtube (I don't remember the developer's name) to get into world 9 as it would perfectly fit there... just like the Energy Zone from Obreck.

Sorry for being annoying, and this topic happened before I registered, sorry if this post is out of place, don't flame me, that pic is perfect for the Halo World but...
I don't think the Earth should be there, because of the storyline, World 2 is the alternate Earth (the real world), and world 3 is it's future, so... it would be there again in world 9? Or does it have something to do with the story line like lots of planets including Earth got sucked in close because of Legion's works?
Just my opinion!! But I think the Earth should be changed for something else, perhaps one of Metroid's planets, or the Metroid Fusion space station, or a Black Hole, a Galaxy, a comet... a ship or something?

1) Just because it looks like Earth, doesn't mean it HAS to be Earth.
2) Haven't you ever heard of alternate realities? That's the basis of Alternate Earth. It's not called "Earth", it's called "ALTERNATE Earth". It might use the same, or a similar basis for the setting, but it's not exactly Earth as we know it.

It needs to be Earth for the levels in the world that take place on Earth, like the Black Mesa Research Facility and the Aperture Science Enrichment Facility.

this is insanity. at this rate JS might be able to make this game complete in a year and have half of a secound game O.o. anyways back on track new map is F'ing COOL. i can see new worlds... literally lol. what i mean is those planets can hold other levels that use to be stuck in minus world. we can have Kirby mixed here insted of Realm of Nintendo cus kirby always had to do with planets. or focused on his own. but its still a thought. that and we can get earthworm jim a planet now lol. side question whats the next map to be edited
