Thumbs up x1

I wrote "I wish to collab", not "I demand to collab", and then I just explained why I wish to collab with someone and that it would be appreciate if he or she already has experience with collaborating. Bummer, Amp, I guess you would have fit great with my idea and you could also have helped me for difficult stuff like block bosses, but I guess I'm motivated and engaged enough to make it alone if I have to. Good luck Amp ;)

And btw Nan, I guess Yuri's level will be full of vines instead of trees :P

Thank you, FF.

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.

I have a pretty cool concept going on here. Hoping to get at least fourth place.

Don't you wanna battle your great friends? And also where's Karyete? He said in the Tier List topic he wants to return back for this LDC to win a medal...

To be fair, I sorta lost dedication a while back. And I'm horrible with designing levels in general, apparently.

Let me know if you come up with something. I'm gonna try and make a level here, and since I likely won't have the chance again it'd qualify as my duel level.

YUR NOT HORRIBLE HARMLESS, HONESTLY YUR AMAZIN'- in my opinion. No exaggeration of truth either, you have tons of potential, just need to get some optimism in your system, that's all. I know it's hard if you're not always placing well but I know you're capable of doing awesomely. Maybe one of these days you do need to collab just to get a kick from being with someone who can teach you and learn from you as well. ;)

Quick edit: Ooh my post just collided with MoD's.

Well, to be fair I sorta already did my duel level. Then completely forgot I had to finish that last puzzle.

Wait a second.

Is this supposed to mean something?

Oh, you made a duel level? Cool!

Nah that's not supposed to mean anything. I just meant if you made a level for the 27th LDC.

Yeah, that puzzle cave level thing. It's still rusting at the bottom of my level list 90% complete.

... Ah, okay. I see what you mean.
