>_> You could have phrased that better.

Personally, I don't think too many ideas could really work or would test our skills, but they are certainly out of the box.

There, that's much better.

Silent Conversations and a Crow's Final Song!
My latest story, and one of my personal favorites. A girl bound in silence finds the words to say to her prospective girlfriend as they visit her religious father in a dusty town on the edge of Kansas, where the crows' migration south brings forth anchored memories, the path to resolution, and a new start.

Last time I checked this wasn't a competition as to how good we reply to ideas :0


Hm.....I think we need an Exploration level theme. You know, like my level was in the 8th LDC, how you could choose different parts of the level to explore and whatnot.
Maybe when I'm finally an LDC judge in 900 years I'll choose that theme : D

Go look in my 8th LDC entry, and test the temple part. Near the end of the level is a waterfall. If you think outside the box, it's possible.

Like I said, if you think outside the box, it's possible.

Who do ya think? wrote:T&G War=We dont even have toad in the LD
Theme doesn't have to be mainly Toads and Goombas. We could have a theme where we make a war level. ;)

.....I'll shut up nao wrote:MW=-.-
It sounded pretty creative to me. It just takes a major amount of imagination to make it.

You have a point with this, though. o_O

*screams* I've seen so many sh*tty supermarket levels on the LDP, I'm ready to start instant deleting them everytime I see them, poop levels, and toilet levels submitted. :O


So, how's about a "Choose Your Own Adventure" level, like I did out of boredom months back? You can make it like a war where you choose the army you want to fight for, you can choose whether to be a pirate or defender, or you can have one where you choose to be an evil villain or a hero.

1) Could work if we add something, like if it's BEING RAIDED BY ALIENS! If not, won't work so well.
2) ...9th LDC, anyone? *Points to Graveyard*
3) Um, that's basically an "Explore the town hospital" level.
4) This is a Level Designer Contest. Not just totally a Graphic Showoff.
5) Look at 3 and 4.
6) Um, how can this work, exactly?

Guys, what about a level based off of EE, this looks like a great idea, and the level i'm doing is mostly based off of this. :) [my level is called mario edits]

Hm....I don't see how that would work. Could you provide a screenshot of your level, to show what you mean?

Actually, you could just use volcano tiles, snow tiles, a castle, anything... So, it mostly would work, you still want to see my level though, right. :|

Yeah. From the description you're using, it sounds more like a jumbled mess of spam than anything else. So a screenshot would be good.
