I'm surprised the observatory music isn't a remix for Hat Kid's Spaceship

May be worth a look, certainly. These maps are all on GitHub at the moment so it'll be a little while before I do make these changes. Thanks for the feedback 😁

I second getting stuck out of bounds via the waterfall in the seal room. It's VERY easy to do, and you kiiiinda direct people into it: I jumped up there because the seal's arrow pointed that way and immediately got stuck. I wiggled around randomly and easily got unstuck...but out of bounds. It was easy to jump between the roofs of the tunnels (the two waterfalls and the exit), and you can collect the shard from OoB, so that plus the seal pointing that way made me think it was intentional for a second. ...But then I tried to find a way back in, but fell down and got stuck in the orb of space. :P

I get that the seal is a goofball and is meant to misdirect you, but maybe try adding some sort of trigger at the bottom of the 'space' part of that room? You know, like the triggers for falling off cliffs and whatnot that respawn you back somewhere safe?

i got stuck on top of a waterfall in the seal room and between a double wall in the badge seller's room. i managed to get out of the badge seller's room but the other i had to close out the mod and go back in

Should definitely be there. Though it's been a while since I've updated the map so I can't remember where they are

i've checked the whole map and can't find the last vault code. is there a problem or am i just blind

working fine
fred_happyface  [author] 25 Aug, 2019 @ 12:03pm 
I've just tried it. Seems to be working fine. Feel free to drop me any error logs and I'll see if I can be of any help
Boon Kunak 21 Aug, 2019 @ 4:11pm

this is gud:KidHat:

Very well made map,loved that it saves your progress when you take a time piece and when you get the last one it just ends instead of letting you respawn on an map empty of objectives.
fred_happyface  [author] 10 Jul, 2019 @ 11:02am 
Thank you! Really glad you like it!
Polca_Dot 10 Jul, 2019 @ 9:59am 
This map was brilliant! Really nice to explore and pretty too! Great work. No issues on my end!
fred_happyface  [author] 10 Jul, 2019 @ 4:42am 
I've updated the textures they are now twice the definition
fred_happyface  [author] 10 Jul, 2019 @ 3:46am 
Ah right. The next update should increase the strength a little but I can't have them too strong otherwise you wouldn't be able to see anything.
Souper 10 Jul, 2019 @ 1:53am 
It did, but it's subtle.
fred_happyface  [author] 10 Jul, 2019 @ 1:46am 
I can certainly address the lighting, I'll take that down some more. There are some higher Res models but a lot of the textures are broken. At least when previewing the model (s) online and in 3d viewer. I've opted to use sky lighting as it would take hours to use regular lighting, I didn't realise that didn't cast shadows though
KattPatt 10 Jul, 2019 @ 12:43am 
Ahh, thank you!
Souper 9 Jul, 2019 @ 7:07pm 
Do you think you could import some higher quality textures for the exterior?
It's fine when it comes to the interiors, though.
Finally, it unfortunately seems the screenshots are rather accurate to what it looks like in game. Shadows do exist, but it's rather bright.

Thanks for the feedback. I did have a similar issue with the 3rd floor about 5% of the time. But thought I had managed to fix it. I'll take another look as it certainly is not ideal. Not sure how I feel about changing the theme. I guess that's two fold. I spend around 15 to 20 hours on these maps (plus a couple for fixes) and I'm not sure where the line is for just copying Nintendo and then finding a cease and desist so I always want to try and add something unique to a map. Plus having it a bit more a hat in time themed is a personal preference to be honest. Really glad that you like it though - can certainly never have too much positive feedback! 😁

Comment update; I can reach the third floor, but with the same escape method as before(smashing jump). I end up getting stuck in the floor if I don't do it.
joes1 9 Jul, 2019 @ 7:05am 
I have a problem with the third floor. The zipline brings me at the bottom of the floor and I end up falling. There is no way I can reach it right now.
Second floor also has an issue. I seem to be ending up inside the floor; I can't jump and the only thing I can do is zip back. I can only escape when I am holding forward and smashing the jump during my move. Please fix this.
The map looks amazing though. Just hoped there was a comet observatory theme as well :)
fred_happyface  [author] 9 Jul, 2019 @ 2:55am 
I know this is of little help but after looking into this, it should just work. The reason it doesn't show up in Steam as online enabled is an oversight on my part (Devs specify if it is compatible). Some things like vault codes do not sync because I want everyone to explore. I'll see if I can find anything else on this and keep you informed
KattPatt 9 Jul, 2019 @ 1:57am 
Anyway online party would be possible? I'd love to play hide and seek on this with a friend if possible
Guzbloon 7 Jul, 2019 @ 8:51pm 
I'm very thankful to revisit Rosalina's ship, but why didn't you use the correct theme of the Comet Observatory? This guide can help you to make it loop properly with the intro only playing once: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1290866659
If you'd like any help I'm on the discord and I can share with you some bugs I encountered in your maps.
fred_happyface  [author] 7 Jul, 2019 @ 3:03pm 
My pc is a toaster so I have shadows turned off. Should look fine.
Shararamosh 7 Jul, 2019 @ 12:42pm 
Um. I don't see shading/lighting in any of the screenshots. Is it disabled?
fred_happyface  [author] 7 Jul, 2019 @ 7:07am 
Hey that would be wonderful. I'll drop you an add. I'm on discord too so add me there if you'd prefer - whatever works best for you?
Beatstart 7 Jul, 2019 @ 6:36am 
hey i can help you with the italian translation if you want
fred_happyface  [author] 6 Jul, 2019 @ 3:05pm 
Thanks! I'll knock down the brightness a little
YushUhBeanz 6 Jul, 2019 @ 2:15pm 
I really love it! but its a bit bright other than that its amazing!
JOELwindows7 6 Jul, 2019 @ 2:02am 
ok! np
fred_happyface  [author] 6 Jul, 2019 @ 12:57am 
Cheers. The issue with steam screenshots is that I have to take around to find the save directory where with snipping tool I can save directly to the desktop. Hope you enjoy
JOELwindows7 6 Jul, 2019 @ 12:32am 
or use Win + Shift + S to just take part of screenshot.
JOELwindows7 6 Jul, 2019 @ 12:31am
