TNSS has 121. My current game has 70 rooms and is nowhere near complete. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=j--8iXVv2_U On the sixth day God created Manchester "You gotta get that sand out your vaj!" x13 www.bossbaddie.com

My signature is never too big!!!

To be honest i'd go for less than ten, do 5 or 6 but learn how to make each level really shine. Then when you try to make a new game after perfecting the old one, you will have learnt what does and doesn't work.

Alas, I'd say five gfx-sets is enough for a generic platformer for example (grass, desert, ice, fire, watery), with maybe two or three levels using each gfx-set. http://soundcloud.com/normbo - Listen to my music.

-Liam- Cake Addict Registered 06/12/2008 Points 556	9th September, 2007 at 17:08:55 - I love that look. I don't use it enough though. Tell 'em Babs is 'ere...
Retired Kliker Lazarus The Ed Wood JR of TDC Registered 18/07/2003 Points 7363	10th September, 2007 at 07:40:29 - I always have to set a small number of levels so I don't get tired of the game. If I need more, I add them. Fine Garbage since 2003. CURRENT PROJECT: -Paying off a massive amount of debt in college loans. -Working in television.
