*prays the 30th LDC isn't a barren wasteland of no entrants*

:(

well, in a collab, it's not necessary to start off right now when you want to finish another level first. Since you would only do one level, it could be sufficient to have 2 weeks left when starting. Maybe consider that ... I'll keep the draft saved for the PM I just was about to send to you.

If not, I just enter on my own, and maybe it works next time. :)

I meant if you know of a plotline or story that isn't finished, that you want to make an ending to in a level, or you can make an alternate ending to an already existing ending.

I didn't mean unfinished levels.

I'm sorry Supershroom, I just have a tight schedule. Although maybe next time? I'm sorry.

EDIT: On second thought. Never mind, I'm in.

You've surely brought me on a rollercoaster of emotions yesterday. XD

Gonna start designing by the latest tomorrow. In the meantime I'm looking forward to the other WIP you wanna pull out.

I have an idea for a level, but it really depends on the amount of time I have. So far I'm not expecting to have enough.

e.g. the Brawl iteration of Smashtasm.

I've said it on Discord, but as of today, I'm not going to submit an entry. The deadline is due eight days before my Christmas break, and I'm in for a rather tense month in three, two, one.

Still, I do have PC access again, and can do playtesting. In case you need a Falcon's eye proof checking your graphics.

There's a part of me that is anticipating problems because I know this time of year is challenging for a lot of people. And I did think maybe if I ran it just for the rest of the year so you had the whole of November, and the whole of December, that it would work.

But we tried that with the 28th LDC, and we still only got 4 entrants. No matter how much you extend a deadline, if people aren't willing to make it in the first place then that won't change things. So I'm only going to hope that we get enough people involved and if not, then I only feel bad for those who are missing out. It's taken us forever to get to the big 30 and I personally have some great ideas this time round. So I'm not going to pass the opportunity to make something epic to finish off this year.

Wasn't the 17th LDC hosted during the same months? I thought we had a good amount of people back then, but things have changed now so that may not mean much of anything.
