What is more Fun Supertux 0.1.3 or 0.5.1 ?




pls Vote
THAN U VERY MUCH

I'd have to try 0.1.3 again but I voted for it because my son (now 17, then a young lad) loved Super Tux 0.1.3 and I can't get his younger brother to touch Super Tux 0.5.1; this may be influenced by Minecraft and the emergence of mobile gaming / shinier easily accessible alternatives (crap, really, but kids lap it up).

I am biased as a developer, but I certainly would vote for 0.5.1. I think I'll refrain from submitting my vote, though for that very reason.

SuperTux 0.1.3 is a classic. But I found it quite limited at some points in the editor. Before I found out there was a level editor for 0.4.0, I got bored making levels in 0.1.3 so I would make ones such as a thousand flying snowballs stacked on top of each other...
So really I would just play SuperTux on 0.4 and make levels in 0.1.
After the ingame editor in 0.5 was released, there were much more possibilities and therefore, I like 0.5.1 much more than 0.1.3.

Sure the 0.5.1 have much more possibilitis . with the Leveleditor u can do much more things....
but when i look back to the simply 0.1.3 the game was faster, the bombs explod faster...thats make it more difficult.

Mabe if 0.5.1 have the speed of 0.1.3 - that would be perfect

st 1.3 is more nostalgic for me

Obviously 0.5.1.
I think the main reason why people vote for 0.1.3 is because of different gameplay with side-scrolling-only levels.

But then I don't see the point of nostalgia, because ST 0.5.1 is still able to support the classic side-scrolling-only levels anyway, but is also is capable of supporting complex levels.

The big question is basically just if someone is going to make more of classic-style levels.

0.5.1 is more fun to play, but I had much more fun playing 0.1.3.

Its kind of hard to compare the two. Its kind of like Minecraft for me. I like playing the current versions, but I also love going back to the 2011 versions and messing around in them. I play more 0.5.1, though I still go back to 0.1.3 every so often.

I think I like them both equally.

0.31 was more wacky. 0.4.0 is cool, but the difficulty balancing can be a bit odd at times (e.g. countercurrent), and the user made levels can be obnoxiously hard and frustrating (e.g. Stuff by SK1LL).

I think in the end, I'll go for 0.0.4.
JK, 0.4.0 is the best but needs work.

0.1.3, brings back memories
