Rating standards: show
1 star: (0 - 5.75 in LDC) These levels need a lot of work. They're totally un-elaborated, and/or inherently flawed due to things like cutoff or enemy spam, or they're untested and there are too many bugs gameplay-wise, in short: Many many things went wrong in such a level.

2 stars: (6 - 9.75) These levels are not terrible, but poor. They're too short, lack scenery or they have errors and/or bugs but it's still barely enjoyable. Again, spend more effort and try to do better. (if it's your first level that I rate two stars, it's not bad. There's a long way you can still go)

3 stars: (10 - 12.75) These levels are about mediocre. They may be still a little bit short, the gameplay is fine but not very original and graphics are also solid, but not breath-taking. Try to keep improving!

4 stars: (13 - 15) These levels are nice, but not the best. Effort has been put into them, there can some professionality be seen in gameplay and graphics, they're a nice experience to play, but there are still things you can do to make it even better. Try to go the extra mile!

5 stars: (15.25 - 20) These are really great levels, those which, as said, I would give more than 15 in an LDC. These suffice many high requirements, and it already goes into subtleties if you want to make them better. These levels are successful all around. Bravo.

These are just general principles I try to follow when rating. Sometimes I don't leave a further comment when rating, most times I do, if you have questions about it, feel free to ask further.

Sorry for not participating, I'd had this concept for ages but I honestly just didn't know how to execute it. I've sat looking at an empty level for the past week not knowing where to begin. Probably my fault for picking something so complex, but after my success with Fake Reality I realised I do much better when I pick an idea that excites me. And this did excite me. Just couldn't work out how pull it off.

Anyways, I'm interested in seeing everyone else's levels. :P

Spoiler: show
As some participants scramble to touch up their levels with last minute refinements,those who have completed and posted their entry wait impatiently for the deadline to be reached. As the deadline looms overhead the participants,anxiety builds up,forming a tense mood on the forums. The answer to this one simple interrogative sentence may change the fate of this entire website for all eternity: Which entry will the judges deem the winner,and more importantly,which master level designer created it?


My narrating sucks,doesn't it?

25quareds aren't big scary deals they're just contests you jump into with a small piece, nobody's expecting a masterful revolutionary artwork lmao
