Finding good levelsets
Posted: Tue Feb 21, 2023 9:28 pm
Hello everyone,
I play R'n'D almost daily but, as I'm sure many of you have noticed, loads of the 600+ levelsets in the Emerald Mine Club level collection are pretty rubbish and make heavy use of random element placement, repeatedly copying and pasting one section of a level, or regurgitating the same ideas throughout a levelset. It can take a lot of searching before stumbling across a decent levelset.
I found RAP's chronicling of his playing activity to be useful, but it's quite comprehensive and still requires quite a bit of sifting through. Holger has listed some good ones on the levels page of this site, but it seems to cover 'extra' levelsets and not the Emerald Mine Club level collection itself.
I thought it would be good to have a thread where people can post the names of high quality levelsets they've played. If this already exists somewhere in the forum, please delete this thread and point me towards it. If it doesn't, here's what I've got for starters.
Excellent levels
Expert Mine 1, 2 & 3
The Exception 1 & 2
Gav
Wonder Mine
Contributions 2002 Equinox Tetrachloride & II
Contributions 2003 Andreas Buschbeck
Contributions 2004 Andrzej Grzesik
Worth a look
Adventures of Mr B 1, 2 & 3
Highlander Mine
Laban Mine
Nem Mine/New Mine 1995
Nordlicht Mine 1 & 2
Snel Mine 1 & 2
Stonehenge
Through the Eve Caves
Through the Sprint Mine
Cheers,
