GT Saturday Specials: Knytt Stories
On Saturday, March 27 at 4 PM Pacific, join us for a special Knytt Stories hoedown! You will be provided, free of charge, with TWO HOURS to create your very own Knytt Stories level from scratch.
Never used the Knytt Stories editor before? No problem! Download Knytt Stories here. (If you've never played it before, give the tutorial or bundled level a go to get a feel for how the game works.) The editor comes included, and a good way to learn to use it is by cracking open existing levels and poking at them to see how they work. This guide is also recommended reading.
Join us on IRC for camaraderie, support and merrymaking! Point your favourite IRC client to #glorioustrainwrecks on irc.freenode.net, or use our handy-dandy in-browser chat here.
Upload your level here when it's done!
(And remember: don't eat the mushroom.)

If I hated knytt is it worth
If I hated knytt is it worth giving knytt stories a try?
Yes, I think so.
Yes, I think so. It's pretty easy to make a level that's nothing like Knytt; you can make a metroidvania, a completely linear platformer... you could easily remove wall climbing if you're not a fan of that.
But... if what you hated was the size of the character, the jump physics, or the wide-format non-scrolling rooms, you're pretty much screwed.
Short answer: sure! Longer
Short answer: sure!
Longer answer: probably? Depends on what you hated about Knytt. Knytt Stories is very similar in terms of mechanics -- so if you hated, I don't know, running and jumping and climbing on walls, then this likely won't change your mind. But beyond that, KS is about what you can do with that small verbset. The default scenario might not float your boat, but there's a huge variety of levels out there, and they range from Knytt-like ambience to challenging platforming to complex puzzles, and way beyond into wild and wooly experimental stuff. Some folks here could definitely recommend a few levels for you to try.
From a game-makin' standpoint, it's a really pure design exercise, since there are so many constraints. And the editor is fairly simple to figure out, beyond a few quirks. So that part I can recommend without qualification.

Knytt Stories is different
Knytt Stories is different from Knytt in that levels can take many different forms or styles. Layout can be exploratory, or use hub worlds or linear progression. The levels themselves can feature puzzles, enemy dodging, jumping challenges, or a combination of these things. Or they can just be about pretty scenery. Many also have selectable difficulty settings.
I am excited about this.

I'd also like it if when you go into a game and it says 'made for [event]' if I could click that event to be taken to the list.

I found making a level for Knytt Stories to be too annoying in a bunch of ways, so I made a level for Platformajigger instead. I nearly lost half the level at one point, and spent forty minutes trying (eventually successfully) to recover it! Yay Platformajigger!

Better late than never, I suppose. I left early but here's the completed story.
My first attempt at a Knytt Story. Short and sweet.
This seems impossible.
This seems impossible. Perhaps Juni should be able to high jump (the green powerup) from the start?
An idea I had surrounding
An idea I had surrounding the conflict between the submission system and comments:
* Submit the levels created for all Knytt Stories events there will ever be to the same event in the system.
* Comments on each individual event page will feature the levels created specifically for that event.
Does anyone like this?
Wow, Knytt Stories is
Wow, Knytt Stories is amazing. The neat thing about this game is the downloadable content. Nifflas has already released 3-4 new worlds worth exploring, and the game comes with the same level editor that he used. The game comes with several different tools for downloading new levels. My favorite has to be An Underwater Adventure for the trippy illusion section. I love how absolutely huge the levels are. :D iphone 5 cases (spam link removed)

Nope, the copy is scraped from reddit.
