11th Level Designer Contest

[Buff_]

Well, since it's actually gonna happen today and we both have all but YB's judgings, you can have it.

Well hopefully. If I'm not on, and you have the results, you can go ahead and post them. Due to timezone differences he may PM them to me at completely the wrong time.


And thanks.

[MessengerOfDreams]

No prob bro.

[Avo]

Alright, MoD, do you have his judgings yet?

[Buff_]

No me in the question?





Anyway, I haven't got them so that means if you get sent the last results today Moy, you should post them. I won't be able to get on for at least another 9-10 hours from now, so there's no chance I can post them.

[MessengerOfDreams]

Okay, Buff. Will do.

[Yoshi Boo 118]

RAWR, I'm nearly done. At least this judging was faster than the last LDC, no?

EDIT: I'M DONE...except I didn't do Mr_I_Failed's level cause I'm confused about whether he entered too late or not.

His level qualifies for this contest!

I just PMd you. Did you judge the levels with extensions?


MoD is posting the results tonight.

[MessengerOfDreams]

Alrighty! LDC Judges are finished! But one last twist... that a lot of you know already but still Surprise Judge! Me, to help alleviate the unusual amount of Contestant Judges this contest (nothing personal, AT ALL, just to make things officialier)

Yep, I organized the 11 levels by score and then I played the 6 that had a decent to good chance of winning, judging them as well... I don't think it changed anything but ANYWAY

Mr_I_Failed, your level got 1 or 2 judgings (I have yet to dig up) but unfortunately there is technically no way you could win or place. So yeah, sorry.


Let's get started!

In 11th-Fireheart! (3/20 points)




In 10th-SirKnightingFail! (5.73/20)








In 9th-AwesomeJFRD! (6.625/20)







In a tie for 7th-SuperMarioFan639 and jda7! (8/20)


In 6th Place-Star King! (13.125/20)


NOW FOR THE BIG DOGS!

I'd like to first announce that this is probably the closest season we've ever had on an LDC. 5th-3rd are apart by .44 points and 2nd and 1st are literally separated by 0.125 points...

so if I ever hear Volcove crying about 7th LDC losses again, I'll shoot him. XD

In 5th place, with 14.466/20 points is...















Hai drama space











What? You wish I could just go the hell away for once?










Yeah. Go die in a hole.


Master0.1!

Right after that, in 4th place with 14.6/20 we have










Wait why is drama space needed this early in the results?














It makes no sense.














None.
















At all.


NanTheDark! Congrats!


Now let's crack our knuckles for the actual medalers!


In 3rd place, with 14.9 points is...














Back.












Will you stop whining about me?









Anyway...










Didja see last week's The Office?






Mr_SaxMan! Another Bronze under your belt! Yes I know this color isn't bronze but I don't care


And in second we have, with 15.75/20 points











Ohai again...

















so...













Didja read Legacy?











Avolerators!











And now, for our grand prize winner!

Alritey guys! Start posting your judgings! I'll post my (rather useless) judgings here!

Avolerators-Shroomsday

Fun-8/10

This level was really fun. It's kind of the blueprint of what you envision a good level to be like. Everything was managed greatly. The difficulty was challenging but not frustrating. The platforming was creative yet not overdone. It was overall a great level. I do think, however, at some parts, it did feel a bit too blueprinty, and I saw some familiar elements that just felt textbook, but not too much.

Graphics-5/5

You walk the tightrope between under and over finely. Your level's graphics had great structure and decoration but wasn't a kitschy glam mag.

Other things-4/5
+1 for the three paths at the end.

Total-17/20

Really great level, a round of applause. You made a level that's balanced to perfection.

Master1.0

Fun-8.5/10

Man, there was an air of excitement about this level that I usually never get. It was built incredibly and fun to play, and had that urgent GTFO of here feeling. However, what a anti-climactic ending! Very underwhelming. o.O

Graphics-4/5

While the graphics were a bit bare, as someone who is a proclaimed master with tiles, you done well with the cave tiles and other graphics.

Other Stuff-4/5

+1 for priceless dialogue.

Overall-16.5/20

This level was fun, but it seemed... unfinished. Like OH CRAP DEADLINE TACK ON AN ENDING THANK YOU BUH BYE.

NanTheDark

Fun-9/10

I think your platforming is a joy to play and the the earthquake was well done too. You also represented the 2012 theme the best, what with the natural disasters and all that

Graphics-3.5/5

Not remarkable... but very cool anyways.

Others-3.5/5
+1 There's a serious tone on the level that is very well placed
-0.5 If the Shine Sprite protects those on the ship... why the hell don't they feed that to the freaking Earth? I'm sure he would have appreciated it!

Overall-16/20

Very fun level that needed a bit of ironing out.

Star King

Fun-7.5/10

...seriously? No breaks? I love the idea, but... It's nonstop! Plus, half the time what you have to do to elude the Goomzilla is near, if not definite, impossible. But, the execution of story was very good.

Graphics-4/5

Great graphics. 1 point taken off for the fact that we're running so hard we'll hardly notice.

Other Stuff-3/5
+1 For good Goomzilla construction
-1...what does this have to do with 2012?

Total-14.5/20


Graphics-4/5

Mr_SaxMan

Fun-8/10

Fun is a tipsy scale here. In some spaces it's a 10, in others a 5. The story? Total 10. Hella fun. The platforming? A 7-8. It's pretty good, needs touchup, and the lag-actual gameplay is what brings it down to 5 considering at some places you can't even walk normally.

Graphics-4.5/5

While not the best I've seen, these graphics deserve great kudos for a job well done. Especially the rain.

Other-4.5/5

+1 for the killer HTML work. Wow, I didn't even know links could GO into signs like that. I also like the incorporation of the 2012 joke letter you kept flaunting.
+0.5 for epic Venexis/Jelloman cameo.

Total-17/20

The lag's an issue, but you created a truly fun environment in this level.

[Killswitch]

Here are my judgings: Thanks! My average score is 15.8125, by the way...

jda7 - 6/20

This level was pretty boring actually, mostly, all you need to do are to jump and swim upwards and downwards. The level was short. There are no enemies. The clue to the secret warp pipe was obvious. But, there was an interesting coin challenge. The graphics are totally screwed, the erasures of the tiles isn't a good idea. And the waters look crappily placed. And what's with all the floating Doors?! o_O It doesn't look that you put effort on your level to me, add more enemies, make it longer, place objects like water and doors on the floor, don't erase tiles crappily, just add decorations instead and make it more fun. Well, at least, thank you for your participation!

Avolerators - 14/20

This level was great! This level required me a lot of skills and strategies. The graphics are nice and well placed. There was no lag. And there were also some parts that I didn't like; the water parts and the house at the left side. But anyways, excellent job!

Mr_SaxMan - 12/20

Same thing with you, Sax. Your level was great! But, your level will be more fun if you planned adding more Level Transitions to reduce the lag. The level had lot of special things like the Giant Tornado, the rain, the secrets, etc. But there were also a lot of lag and cut-off. And the last parts were empty. But great job, my friend!

Firestar - 1/20

So boring....and incomplete, most of the areas are empty. There's also a major problem of getting into the second part. But nice graphics!

AwesomeJRFD - 5/20

Hmmm....great idea on the meteors falling from the above. But really short. Plus, if you aren't quick enough, you might get hurt by touching the lava and the worst, you might not even catch the Shine Sprite.

sirknightingfail - 2/20

Woops...you really failed, Sir Knight. You made Parts 1 and 2 are REALLY impossible with lots of enemy spam and useless stuff. Parts 3 and 4 can be beaten but it was made simple.

master1.0 - 11/20

Your level parts are well designed with unique styles. These level parts required me lots of skills, too. Some parts of your level parts has cut-off too. And also, you added great platforming on your level! And your level parts have an interesting story too.

SuperMarioFan639 - 4/20

Too short and easy, all you need to do is to enter the house, get some useless stuff, go outside and enter the warp pipe, be transported in a room with lots of useless stuff again, and get the up the landscape. And BOOM!

Star king - 10/20

This level is REALLY nearly impossible for me to beat. You need to be really fast to complete this level just like AwesomeJRFD's level.

NanTheDark - 15/20

My oh my, we may have a new LDC winner here. It was really fun with the excellent use of the platforms, but I didn't like the graphics, though. There was also minor lag. OUTSTANDING JOB, WINNER...

Mr_I_Failed - 7/20

Hmmm....Well, the level was short. There were also enemy spam too, and a useless button. Plus there was no clue on what warp pipe leads to the Sling Star! Some things like the water doesn't look great. And there was also minor cut-off.

Clamshot - 3/20

This was short also, the first landscape doesn't have decoration and has a floating Sign. And there was also enemy spam next to it, there were also some useless stuff after the Sling Star. And then, jump on the Blocks, get inside the door, and that's it.
