Bottles do not spawn whatsoever in the standalone Level Designer.

Bottles do not spawn whatsoever in the standalone Level Designer.

Nice to know. To be fair though, I rarely see bottles used in levels.

ooooooooops, I left out some very important details;

- The red coin is a secret shine that makes use of the switch on the very right side of the level (and the Turbo fludd). The main objective is the Silver Stars.

I figured as much, though didn't figure out the switch part. I would suggest hinting a bit more that it involves the switch (though I dunno how... maybe make a bit more of a staircase out of snow? I really have no idea)

edit: Changed the backstory to better fit the Snowy Fields music:

Winter is here, and today Mario & Co. are visiting a winter wonderland! This Frozen Fantasy world is perfect for those who want to relax, spread joy and cheer, and enjoy the lovely month of December. Unfortunately, there are a few baddies that hid Silver Stars important for lighting up a giant Christmas Tree back at the town square! Mario & Co. split up and got to searching for the Silver Stars!

The backstory looks fine now and the music is more fitting.

Also something I didn't notice while doing the furniture (I don't know how tbh) is that items aren't covered by the red carpet tiles which is odd. Seeing items like that looks kinda sloppy, though to be fair I don't know what to swap the carpet with. Maybe just raise the furniture by a little bit, so it doesn't look as bad.

Yeah, I noticed that too and decided to just put carpet on the top floors (though for now I'll place items first, then carpet)

I added a ton of decoration and revamped some of the tiles in the level, let me know what you guys think.

I like the re-design now. Though the water you've placed is too short and you can see the edge of it. Not to mention that it's kinda hard to get out of it. And I'm sure you're aware of this, but you need to disable the shines in the house. They'll still shine fine. And I have to say that I love the snow on stairs effect you did using the cloud.

Also a suggestion for the decorations. For the christmas trees, you could put either disabled coins of all colours or small rotating blocks as decorations (though as for the latter, they'll get in player's way, so maybe just stick to coins). Also for the 'regular' christmas trees have a invincibility star on top of them, and have a shine appear on the main christmas tree (Though I guess you said that the main tree is at a Town square that is not in that level so... Well, either way I think the decorated trees will look cool (no pun intended )).

Remind myself never to visit this forum again. I'm sorry for letting you down.

[Konradix]

You didn't let anyone down, the level is complete for the most part and good enough for the contest. Also SK said that you can post the complete version in the vault, so there's that. Also we'll need you for the LLLDC to troop through (since we(?) don't have as much experience in it).
