[@weirsgarage]

[@geegwatson2349]

Thank you so much for featuring Spooky Spud & your positive words, Jonny! 😊 To the creator of The Haunted Castle- what a beautiful creation! I want to ride it a few times to see all your amazing detail! I hope to see more creations from you in the future! ☮️❤️ Blessed 🐝✌️😃

Biondani Studios Awesome, I look forward to it! Are you on Discord?

[@rudeboysouljah1912]

Both are great creations. The castle was extraordinarily detailed. I too would like to see the 30,000 piece coaster. Love the video Mr #5.

That Haunted Castle was amazeballs! Immersion factor 11!

[@MysticTempleCreations]

Hello ! I am the creator of this attraction. Thank you to everyone. I am glad you enjoyed it. More is about to come on my channel.

Spooky Spud - Really fun, the start kinda felt like one very very long lift hill but I somehow didn't mind that, I think it would make a great real-life kiddy coaster and all the neon felt a lot like you'd see in a real-life dark ride of that type too. Would be cool to see what was different about the 30,000-piece version. The Haunted Castle - Pretty incredible architecture and scenery, everything has that realistic jaunty angle going on rather than looking at all boxy or fake. Only thing I might suggest is add a few jump scares, it felt a lot like a scenery ride where there's a lot to look around at but nothing really jumping out at you. That's no bad thing though, I just felt like it woulda been nice to poop my pants once or twice along the way too. Other than that it would be cool if that track back to the boarding station was decorated somehow, even if you just made it look like a sewer or a haunted tunnel kind of effect, just for even better immersion.

Bobble Bardsley thank you for your kind review of Spooky Soud. Glad you liked it! ✌️😃

HAUNTED CASTLE: Tip 1, have doors swing in the direction of the car, not just for realism sense but also because timing for the opposite way can be a pain. if you are determined to have the doors swing the opposite direction, then space them far enough and lengthen the time open so there's no clipping. The lighting truly is remarkable! I'm very impressed with that! There's SO much scenery that I got a little too bamboozled and lost, so while I originally disagreed with Jonny about the style of ride, when it comes to this extreme of scenery, I would have to agree: you want a ride that controls the rider's views so that they aren't overwhelmed visually (that's both insider knowledge and critiquing). Disney, you'll notice tells a main story in the primary visuals, and for those that look outside the sightlines, other less important stories, or hidden mickeys and such, will be placed, but the main visual storyline is always coherent. This ride, it felt like an imploding explosion of ideas and I got lost. That being said, the set design of many areas are just impeccable! And while I wish there was a dual loading/unloading station option in PlanCo, I love the idea you had there. I do hope some of the set pieces (assuming they are your own designs) are blueprints or could be made into blueprints. Because I would love to share them! SPOOKY SPUD: Hmmm, I think the fact that I know it's less pieces than it should be set me up for more curiosity and less love for the coaster. So I'm trying to look past that and it does remind me of a horror house walk through, but not super gory horrory. It's cute, and I'd love to see more to it. There are a few parts where the smoothing of the coaster or the placement of the scenery makes it really under par for advanced builder levels, so I'd go in and smooth those areas (the tunnels, specifically for the theming. It felt like I could see backstage, which is never a good thing for a ride experience like this).

Fun creations! The neon effects were really cool and pretty original how you set them up. The haunted castle was incredible; 360-degree theming is where its at. BUT, I was disappointed to see how unfinished the exterior looked because in a real park it has to be somehow contained or put together more realistically. The ride experience was A++++ but I would challenge the creator on the next one to make something that looks complete and just as great from the exterior as well!

[@MysticTempleCreations]

Challenge Accepted ;)

I like the creativity and design for "Spooky Spud", though the track is a bit herky jerky at times and there is a lot of dead space (pun intended) in the locations, so you are look at more blank walls than decorations and animations. There are several object clipping moments as well. Still a fun ride though. "The Haunted Castle" is a masterpiece of prop placement, lighting and scenery design. The atmosphere to the various locals is superb. Congrats on being one of the first to use cloud formations overhead to give the lighting a simulated origin point. That realism is excellent, especially with the lighting and sounds effects. This is built like an A+ Universal Studios attraction and works perfectly. That Frankenstein's Lab area and the undercity are my favorite locations. I definitely see the "Haunted Manor" influence with the later. Shame the ending was messed up.

[@tedioustotoro4885]

I wish the game had the option to put the entrance and exit in different places so that you could have more immersive experiences like the second ride. A lot of more modern dark rides have the entrance and exit in different places so that the story works better. A good example is ‘Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance’ where the ride starts in a transport storage bay on a star destroyer but ends outdoors in the shell of a crashed spacecraft.

I love your channel

[@RyRy2312]

Nice vid guys 👍🏻👍🏻

[@ryans413]

Would have liked to see the 30k version but still pretty fun

[@coloradoprospecting1034]

Dude I cannot wait to see the next creation from bio Danny or what may their name be, I think you explained it all that that whole experience in the hardcastle was jaw-dropping unbelievable so beautiful like universal studios or Disney quality

[@liampetersen9062]

Where are the links for these creations on steam?

[@liampetersen9062]

@Biondani Studios ok thank you!

[@4B1ade]

I'm on time!!!

[@tempest7299]

How do you pick which ones to feature is it like a vote or discord level?

[@CrystalNibarger]

Theyre's Slimer cars...lol

[@scottgoodman2857]

I would of liked to see a little more morbidly creepy effects. Prey on the fear of uneasiness.

[@geegwatson2349]

Scott Goodman me too! From your lips to the Frontier Developers. 🙏🤞😉

[@krishyc6378]

Why do you have to pay to get your hard work displayed. I mean surely you don’t have to pay to show your talent

[@geegwatson2349]

Krishy C Hi there! You don’t. Jonny does have a system of featuring the Patreon creations first but then he also shows off so many wonderful creations from those who aren’t Patreon’s just as much. ✌️😉

[@krishyc6378]

Thanks I understand now

[@DSABkant]

1. Looks like it was intended but not skillfully. 2. Amazing but it's not finished.
