Since Simon has recently asked what I think of Lix during the
multiplayer discussion, I thought it would be helpful to make a video documenting some initial thoughts/reactions as I don't have a massive amount of experience with it as yet.
Link to the video.Hope this is helpful! Here's a summary of the key points in the video:
+ User interface is inviting, intuitive and self-integrated
+ New players can adapt fairly quickly thanks to the helper text on the in-game panel
+ Customisation is easy
+ Online multiplayer! :thumbs-up:
- Gameplay seems a little bit slow, I ended up playing with Fast Forward on quite a lot
- No release rate control - or if there is, it isn't obvious
- Always going back to the level select screen breaks game flow quite a bit, although I suppose there can be positives for this in that it reminds you to take a break, and is good for playing single levels within packs.
EDIT: Just had a look through the Lix folder and discovered that most if not all graphical elements of the interface (and the Lix themselves) are completely customisable! I'll likely have a play with it at some point.
Question: what are "Scale 150/200 and 300" for?
