Multipost: Wishlist and Icons I've made

Zvezda and others have tried their hands at the multipost format. Basically, this is a post where you switch topics often. Instead of doing that, I decided to make two big topics, and combine them into one post. I could make them separate posts, but that would just be somewhat lazy on my part.

So as many of you know, 2.1.1 is arriving soon. With a new update, comes many new features. However, there are many features I would like to see in future updates. This list is a mixture of features, and my imagination, just to let you know if you get confused. Also, most of these are Level related, as that's the main focus of GD.

Easier Art

So you see how messy that ship on the truck looks? It would look much better with a proper art creating feature. My thoughts are adding a new button that makes You go into a Paint.net like interface. Then from there you can create your art. The bigger it is, and the more colors, will determine the amount of objects used for it. I feel like a feature like this would make for more accurate art that's easier to make. Art levels could florish if a feature like this was added.

Vertical Portals

So since we have the Blue and orange portals for diagonal, why not have Pink and Green for these ones?

And I know that everyone is going to say it messes up the sync, but.

Just sync the teleporting bois.

This would be useful for a lot of situation s, and could create some very creative GD Levels in combination with diagonal portals. You could also use these to teleport back into the Level, which could be a cool mechanic if made correctly.

Ultra HD

So with 2.1 being released, the high quality feature has been disabled. This means we may now stare at all the unprofessional pixels.

But what was the reason? Half of the good players have 144hz 1080p Monitors anyways. However, it is confirmed it is being re added in 2.1.1, so the wait for better graphics will be a short one. Also don't try making High quality graphics, that's what I Tried to do and then this happened.

Hell mode

Now a lot of you are probably thinking about the Amino quiz mode called Hell mode, which tho have 5 seconds to answer upside down questions. However, that is not where my idea came from actually. Do you know Super Meat Boy? Well, once you complete a level with an A ranking, you can complete its hell version. It's a much darker and depressing version of the original level. I feel like this would fit well with GD as Well. After completing the level in both modes with all coins, you may proceed to the hell stage. This is basically a buffed version of the original levels with more features. For example, here's Hell Stereo Madness.

This level is more dark and is much more difficult then the original. To spice it up, I added the tiny mode to make jumping more difficult. The background is also darker and some structures have been added or changed. And this doesn't just have to be for normal levels. Custom levels could have Hell modes too, as long as BOTH levels are verified. Since this level is much harder, you will get more stars and coins. I think the coin limit for Hell mode will be five. So what about already hard levels like Mystic? Well, I think if the level is hard enough, it can be a hell level by itself. For example, Erebus can give you 20 stars and 5 coins. But that's just my idea, there are many ways this idea could be tackled. Then again, this would kind of destroy the purpose of version 2 levels.

Now that I've said what I want in the next update, I am going to say what I wish won't be in the next update.

New Vaults

Other then some weird Spanish players, I can see a lot of people agreeing with me on this. The story and plot of the second vault was quite interesting, but then the gate keeper kind of ruined that. I would also rather unlock icons with skill rather then just getting a code off google and punching it in. Don't get me wrong, I really liked the idea at first. But after having like 5 vaults, I think I've had enough.

Chat feature

Just like the save button on GD, and the latest post tab on Amino, this is as useless as can be. There is already Discord, which is probably 10X better in the first place. I really don't see the need for chat rooms, Robtop is wasting his valuable time making them.

Well that's about everything on my wishlist for GD. But i would like to talk about Texture packs for a second. They are pretty useless, but You can switch texture packs in game, which could be cool. Ok, onto the next one!

Over the past few months, I have made some GD icons, not many of which I have put into game. Some of you might of already seen some of these, but for those who haven't, well now you will. Most of these are pretty bad, I'm not a master GFX Artist.

Oxygene Font.thing

You know how a lot of the 1.0 GD icons are based off the Oxygene font?

Well, I decided to have a shot at making one like these, specifically with this letter.

I chopped the legs out and made the eyes Circular, the final result was, bad.

If you look closely in the eyes, you can see I tried to copy the Satan spider eye effect. Which looks decent but the entire thing Is really blocky. Kind of reminds me of The Rabbit icon, probably the most famous custom GD icon.

Paper Mario thing

So one day, a member was asking for an icon of the Paper Mario character Merlon. So I made one and the result was, well Better then the other one.

But then I added Bevil, which completely destroyed the image.

Yep, that's horrendous. If you see someone with this as their PFP, you can come to me.

Ball

This is my second favorite icon I have made. It's a ball with no reference or purpose, but I like the look of it. The Vignette really adds to the detail of this icon, but now I can't find Vignette on Paint.net, so I might not make something like this ever again. This was the first one I used lots of line art in, that's why there are many curves and Spikes in the ball.

Triangles

This one is symmetric, but very simple. I wanted to make an icon that would have an outline that wasn't just a bland square, so I created this. I like it, But I wouldn't see me or anyone else using this in GD anytime soon.

Circles and such

I made this for the same reason as I did the cube, I kept making complete cube icons. This one looked much better in my head, I didn't put much thought into the Design. And here's a colored version if that makes it look any better.

Intense Boredom

Do you ever get bored and random apps? Well I did. I was playing a game called red ball two, one of the enemies looked like this. Actually all of them were basically triggered Boomlings.

So I traced it in a GD style and got this.

As of now, this is probably my favorite icon that I have made. Although, a lot of people seem to have it. Here's a colored version cuz y not.

So, only one remains. For those who have been here since July, probably know what's coming. *Cue Mario and Luigi Partners in Time Princess shroom 3rd phase Music*

Ket Ball

One day I had the idea to make a ball with Ket's simplistic PFP on it. Once my computer stopped being horrible, I made one. After I gave EPC one, everyone started to want one. Yeah you have probably heard the story thousands of times. In the end, Flandre told me I had no life *Tenshi not Yami* and the Ket Balls were never made again. Zvezda uses it as his PFP though, probably to trigger the flashbacks. This is my second favorite design wise, but I would never use this due to the history behind it.

Joke Iocns

The first two are Joke Pfps for . The first one being Atiko, which ironically looks really good with the shading, and the second one is Xovy, Aka a Leader of GDA. The third one was just me messing around with some pen I got, it's not anything special. But it ironically looks good as well.

So over time, I have gotten better at making icons. I'm not Senpai Shika level yet, But one day I might get there. For now, all I can do is keep training, and learn from my mistakes.

Well, that's the end of this multipost. Let me know if you would want to see more multiposts in the neat future, I won't do something if others don't want me too! Bye frens ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°).

Question: How was my third attempt at a Multi post?
