ps: my fav level probably was undercover or magnitude

bro your level design is amazing, i'm so sad it isn't finished because it is PEAK gaming, and the cutscenes between levels were funny and refreshing, please don't stop making campaigns ever

this is fucking great, i actually didn't use the music mod and almost liked it more? the calm song helped with those reaaaaaaally long levels at the end

A bit sad that it wasn't got a full story. Really liked paradox lvl.

when are we getting a sequel?

really good campaign its just too short tho

Damn, I really wish I had realized there was a music mod for this. Oh well.
Great levels, I honestly didn't expect any story, but I actually enjoyed it, even if it didn't make any sense.
I like how it starts super easy, then becomes much more difficult. Normally I hate Biker levels, but the ones you made were actually very cool.
Having put so much time into Hotline Miami 2, I'm surprised I never stumbled across this. Good stuff man

those last few levels are amazing, especially stowaway

Thought that could be what you meant. I wouldn't bother trying to add an extra 30 levels to this campaign. It isn't worth the hassle, you are better off making something smaller because even creating 30 levels takes some time. Quality over quantity, I tried to do both and it took me hundreds of hours and a lot of patience.

I meant to say add instead of finish, lol

What you are playing includes basically everything I worked on. There are no 30 bonus levels lying around I'm afraid. I made one level at a time until it became too unstable to work with.

The only things that I worked on that didn't get added were unused boss sprites and some weird level involving Hammer and 6 enemy factions. But don't get too excited all of it was very WIP.

However I am probably not going to do anything with this campaign, it was just a test to see how far I could push the editor really. I know this probably wasn't what you wanted to hear but hopefully you enjoyed the campaign nevertheless.

Mind giving out the source so we can finish the last 30 levels?

FUCK AFTER ALL OF THAT I JUST FOUND THE MUSIC MOD FUCK ME IN THE ASS I THOUGHT YOU WERE JUST BEING STUPID AAAAAAAAAA

Holy hell that was good. Easily the longest I've ever spent on a campaign. I really like the story even if it is unfinished. Most of the levels were superb, but Paradox was a bit of a clusterfuck. Easy 9/10, I really hope you finish it!

10 out of 10. 70 levels! Damn, how did you do this? My applasuse!

ну за работу

This is incredible. I've spent around 3 1/2 hours completing the entire campaign. I liked it, now waiting for you to finish it. I recommend this to everyone.

amazing campaign, starts with short and easy levels, ends up with harder and longer ones, hope you can finish it

actually really good wish you finished it.

Good and Fun Campaign , Greetins From Argentina

Very good

I really enjoyed these levels, took me about 4-5 hours to finish it in one sitting but I had fun while doing it. Thought the story was really interesting even if it was unfinished. I enjoyed the effort put into each level, even the earlier and shorter ones were well designed. Only problem I had was the last level, where it crashed as soon as I entered the final floor. Glad I got to try it out myself, it is a campaign that gets better the more you play it.

Verdict: 9.2/10.

I'd like to weigh in on Paradox since it seems to be a widely enjoyed level.

As a concept I like it, fighting through the same floor over and over while things get more hectic and the scenery becomes more messed up is interesting, although more could be done with the idea to really sell it.
However, the core level design straight up sucks. It's far too cramped and instead of making any fun engagements you just shove more and more enemies into it and rely on special enemies to force "difficulty" which in turn just makes your level plain unfun. The best kind of difficulty is done through challenging engagements, not stacking 20 enemies on top of each other and calling it a day.

It ultimately forces the player to play like a coward by peeking corners and baiting enemies which is objectively the worst way to play the game. Look to the second game's story and draw inspiration from Dennaton's levels as they're the best point of reference we have.

70 LEVELS?????

I like that

I love IT

I was going to add one, but then I realised I would have to publish the campaign again and to be honest I didn't want to go through that...

600 hours of dev time, and not even a workshop cover 😔

I'm surprised people liked Paradox, though it was one of two levels with the "Very Hard" rating so maybe that has something to do with it. If I had of went for 100 levels then trust me it would have gotten even harder.

When making levels I tried to make them fair. But usually fair = easier. Though I think I underestimated the community. If I knew that then I might have just made every level harder.

The sheer size of the campaign is just.. Wow. That being said, most of the levels at the beginning were extremely short, and I mean like 20 seconds! A few levels at the end had really challenging difficulty and I loved paradox - a good idea that was also well done.
But I don't understand the "story" at all. How does it have any relation at all to the gameplay? Is everything just scenes from the movie, like all of it?

holi fak dat epic

Paradox is probably one of my favorite levels out of this collection because it actually pissed me off and love the idea of going through the same room over and over and over, but at the same time its not that great of a level. The last few levels were good United to the last level. Some of the levels feels like you just fart them out in a few seconds. While others you gave it your best. (like the final levels). Like I know this is a collection but still 70 LEVELS! I still baffles me that it is that much. It should last for about 10 max for a campaign and when I played it and played like 15 levels through I wanted to get it over with I played over 45 levels in my first play through and never wanted to play a hotline level ever again. I recommend anyone who plays this only playing the last few levels and not all of the whole collection. I also like Pardo story, doesn't make sense but it's cute. 6/10

Holy fucking shit dude this is a fucking milestone! Think you should receive a reward?

I just hope the campaign is interesting and playable enough to make me finish the entire campaign.

Download the music mod from the link I provided. Then go into steamapps/common/HotlineMiami2 and take out the folder called hlm2_music_desktop.wad and put it somewhere safe. Then add in my hlm2_music_desktop.wad.

Try this guide if you need further assistance:

Can somebody explain me how to install the music mod please ?
I'd love to play that level

WTF WHY 70?!

They said it couldn't be done

Level design was odd, especially in first 10 levels. Interior is way better in the second half (which shows that campaign have been created for a long time). For me, Soldier's levels are the best from the pack because of the difficulty that was set (or because they're recreated from original HM2 campaign). Custom sprites are not helping in such situation. Overall, making campaign with focusing on count is a bad idea.

How

what da
