- Hello fellow Wormers,
-
- "Ohh NO, another DIY level for WormsDC", I hear you say, and you
- would be absolutely right! But this one is quite cool I think (excuse
- the modesty!!)
-
- It's a Candy-Land, based on all things sugary and sweet. To be honest,
- I am NO artist, but when (after about 3 months of tweaking) it was
- finished I actually surprised myself. It just goes to show what you can
- do with PPaint 7.1, a lot of time (boredom) and, err, some (slight)
- initial inspiration from the Playstation's Candy-Land. After browsing
- the Internet for some decent DIY Landscapes, I was dissapointed to only
- find about eight that were lucky enough to remain in my prestigious
- (yeah, right) TWDIY drawer! Some of which were CHESS (the palette
- arrangement could be better though), RUINS, WEIRD, FORTUNE, VEGGIE,
- GANJA, BEASTY, SOUTHPARK and FARM. So thanks to the people who made
- those! Also, thanks to Daniel Polansky for including my land in his
- recent Worms compilation....Cheers.
-
- In this archive (which of course you have just downloaded...haven't
- you?) is also another Worms goodie; a Cheats menu. This is a single
- executable file which brings up a GUI allowing you to view ALL (I think)
- the cheats in WormsDC!!
-
- TO INSTALL,
-
- -- Use the supplied installer... Because it's quick, easy-to-use
- and it WORKS!!
-
- Well, that's about it! Ohh yeah, just one more thing, this land is
- E-Mail-WARE : Yes, PLEASE, please E-mail me, to criticise, socialise or
- to just give me ideas for a new DIY level, or better still, to share
- your own with me (I'm sought of collecting them). Also, if you have any
- suggestions about "Candy Land" then please e-mail me : ie, Do you want me
- to continue maintaining this land? Also, E-Mail me if you're interested
- in helping me produce another DIY landscape which I'm in the middle of,
- (along with a few others) it's called "OutDoors".

- HISTORY of "Candy Land"
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Version 1 (15/9/1998)
-
- - Oringial release. Ground pattern was not totally seamless, and
- the palette arrangement was not that good! Oh well
-
-
- Version 2 (22/3/1999)
-
- - Decided to update this land because of good e-mail response
- (yes okay, so I should have used "Gloop" in the first place!!)
-
- - Changed the water to gloop (err, I mean chocolate...yeah)
-
- - Changed the Mountain colours (they too are now chocolate!)
-
- - Completely changed the sky colours (to match the scene)
-
- - COMPLETELY changed the ground pattern (I used the same
- technique to create it, so it still looks similar). It now looks
- TOTALLY seamless (unlike the last one; it was ONE pixel out!!), and
- the pattern now looks better as it is more compact.
-
- - The palette transitions have been made smoother for a much better
- look (noticable in the ground pattern)
-
- - Some small modifications have been made to some of the objects on
- the landscape (including the cake, lollipop, gob-stopper, and candy
- canes)
-
-
- Version 2.5 (This one)
-
- - I've introduced a BACKGROUND pattern (which so many people seem
- to want... see NOTE)!! HAPPY NOW? I want feedback about this!!
-
- - Made subtle (but significant) changes to the mountain colours.
- The far ones are now lighter than the front ones, which are now
- even darker. (The sky hasn't changed..I think I'm happy with that)
-
- - Made small 'pixel' changes to the foreground pattern (which I'm
- constantly picking at... I'm a perfectionist!)
-
- - Made a big palette change. The two orange colours are now 'closer'
- together... Check out the lollipops!
-
- - Made modifications to the lollipops (to make them look more
- realistic) and also other objects making them 'smoother'.
-
- - Introduced an easy-to-use installer (because I was really bored)
- And it actually works!!
-
- NOTE
- ----
-
- I have included 2 DIY files; CANDY & CANDY2:
-
- CANDY.DIY has a background pattern (ie, which is shown when an explosion
- occurs). CANDY2.DIY does not have a background pattern (ie, every
- explosion makes a complete 'hole' in the landscape).
- I have done this because some people prefer NOT to have a background
- pattern as it is sometimes hard to differentiate between the background
- and the foreground (especially in some DIY's that I've seen). This is
- not entirely the case with my background pattern, but it is not as
- distinct as I would like it to be (due to palette restrictions)
-
- At least you can have the choice... :-)
- (I personally use the one with the background pattern)
-
- Anyway... Enjoy, have fun, and be happy people! Bye
