Rolling Game

The Massassi Temple » Levels/Mods » Jedi Knight Multiplayer Level » Rolling Game

Description

Simple architecture... but very fun gameplay! Some say that this game plays similar to Episode 1: Racer or Super Monkey Ball.

Rolling Game includes a mod and a level. The object of this game is to roll to the end of your chosen path (there are two difficulties). By holding Crouch, your character will roll forward with a high velocity. Fly off ramps, avoid walls, and encounter many other tricky obstacles on your way to the finish. Only true Rollers will be able to complete the Experts path!

There is also good rolling music that plays automatically when you start the level. You can turn it off using a hotkey, but why would you want to do that?

YES! We figured out how to get through the Experts path! w00000t!

Kudos to Muurn for the first successful execution!

Thank you for choosing to Roll! :D

To beat the Experts path, you do not have to use force. Just keep holding C from the beginning to get the speed needed to overcome many of the obstacles. Some obstacles are hard if you don't hold C the whole way.

I hold C from the beginning in the Expert path and I can't make the first big jump without force...

OMG awesome lvl dude. Give it a perfect 10 cause it's so fun. BTW IF you want to pick up speed, jump alot while you hold down speed. Thats how you get past the first expert ramp. Heh, my record is passing the expert course 3 times in a row w/o dying. Can anyone beat that?

GREAT MOD & LVL!!!

To get past any of the obstacles in the level, you do not need to jump or use force. They are all possible simply by holding C from the beginning, and not crashing or slowing down. To get over the huge gap in the Experts path, you must go over the yellow arrow on the ground without slowing down before. After that jump, do not slow down or else you won't clear the wall by the narrow ramp.

BTW, if your framerate goes below 5 fps, you might not be able to roll fast enough to pass some obstacles.

Ditto. The two "normal" routes are easy except for the bug on the ramps which causes you to die anyway. But even going over the zoomarrow and holding crouch from the start I get nowhere near gaining the height required to make the first gap on Expert.

Lot's of fun, but I'm having trouble with the expert path, despite the previous posts' suggestions.

I CAN clear the gap, but fall short of the upper path, thus am just stuck and have to jump off the cliff and start over. Really? No Force?

Rated 8

(And I'm not having framerate problems)

To get past the expert one

use jump to get a lot of speed then make your guy look straight up and he will land it. Then its all easy

Best. Mod. Ever.

I made it across the gap on expert using force jump... its a pain to time though. Mind if I use the "experts only" texture for a rolling level of my own?

I've tried all the suggestions (jumping, looking up) but to no avail.

A bit frustrating...ya'll are all really aboe to make it up to the upper tier? Impressive, considering.

Only the top of most ramps cause the acceleration, the rest slows you down, you have to jump and skip the bottom half of the ramp.

This is a masterpiece. Whilst the levels are a little on the plain side, they are extremely fun. I rate it a 10 for the sheer fun it provides.

Its quite good, very fun. I've gotten past the first jump once or twice, but it's extremely difficult to get any further, and still difficult to pass the first jump.. I've tried everything. Oh well...

In what could possibly be the first public Roll game (Myself, Muurn, Chaz, Checksum), we found a fun way to clear the giant big jump on the experts path - at the skinny "doorway" leading up to the long corridor with the boost and the ramp, Force Jump and time it perfectly so you land right over the boost - you'll careen onto the ramp, bounce, and fly super-far to the high ledge. We thought that was the only way to do it until I managed to do it normally later on :)

DSettahr, you may use the Experts Only texture.

Anyone may make their own level, providing that:
-The level is fun and compatible with this mod
-The level does not include this mod or level
-A link to this Massassi Download/Comments page is provided

One of the best MODs I've ever played, and the level isn't too shabby either. This will be the gem of #massgames for quite a while. Excellent work, 10 out of a possible 10.

HOLY!! This is an awsome mod. The two beginning courses are to easy. The expert...well lets just say my score was
-275, i'm serious. I can get over the huge gap just fine, but then there is that really tall ramp, I don't make it in between the two walls.... Only complaint is that there is only 1 map!! Keep making more!

Excellent. I, also, will make a level for this wonderful mod. Muurn and I managed to complete the expert course without using the force last night... shame that my Internet connection cut out just has he became 1 point ahead of me. I would've beat him otherwise :/

Yes! Sweet victory, I finished the expert course by holding forward and c, and also by jumping constantly. It's very difficult just to get past the first jump, but then the second jump gets even harder. Junkguy, I dunno what your talking about, you HAVE to jump to get across, I've tried everything you said, but it didn't work. This strategy works for me. :) Pure genius. I love this mod. We should make a whole line of levels for it. Despite it's simplistic idea, it's very unique and that's why everyone enjoys it. Keep up the good work!

Jumping continuously makes you go faster. For instance, at the corridor leading up to the huge jump, keep tapping jump and by the time you get to the boost, you'll have enough speed to get over the jump without any Force or special tricks.

ID, come to #massgames some time and I'll tell about the level idea and the proposed name for the project, and you can tell me if you agree or not. Don't worry, to play our extra level, you will need to download this level/mod, so we will even include a link in the level description.

WOW. Awesome! Cept, trying to beat experts path w/o force AGAIN gets a bit boring when you die 50 times then get it again, and die another 50 times, then.... yea. But good job! 10.

An unpolished gem. Thigs to do for the next version:
- More and more detailed levels
- Race against friends and race against time modes
- Ramps should not kill you
- Remove the annoying jumpsound that plays when rolling
- Attach a translucent sphere to the player
(a different color for each player in a MP game, maybe?)

Awesome concept! MAKE MORE LEVELS!
My suggestions (which are simular to a few mentioned)...

1) Change the landing sound to some kinda power up sound.

2) Fix the annoying bug that kills you when you hit a ramp too fast (although I believe this is more of a bug with the level, not the mod).

3) Speedometer.

4) Racing would be sweet - just need something that releases all players at once.

5) More detailed levels!

Keep 'em coming! Nice work fellas.

Excuse our level comment hijacking, but it is revelvant to the suggestions. I rated this at 10 based on the mod, not on the level, as I instantly saw it's great potential... although the level is fun!

I love this mod. So original, and so much fun! I must've spent two hours trying to complete the expert course (brilliant!). Although I like the kind of music that comes with the mod, why pick Bouncing Soul's song from Tony Hawk Pro Skater 4? Maybe it was coincidence, but it doesn't matter. I DEMAND a sequel and a level pack!
