4th Last Legacy LDC

Thumbs up x3

Welcome to the 4th LLLDC (or if you wish, 4th L³DC). I hope this LDC gets as competitive, full of action, bloody and gorey like it never was. Well, not really bloody and gorey, but you get the idea.


Image

• Please bake your levels fresh and new. Levels that were made before this contest starts are getting disqualified.

• Your level should AND must fit the theme. You're way too late to make a level with two transitions where you choose snow or mountains for the beginning but you have to include a small transition of the other- Scratch that, explaining it is way too complicated. You probably get it anyways.

• If you're doing a series, the maximum of levels must be 3 (three). If you really wanna do something big then hold your ambitions until Chapter 3 is released.

• Also, only 2 people are allowed in a collab.

• Don't put anything way too strong in your level. Whether if it contains heavy subjects, gore, or any other content that's not suitable for kids, you should avoid it.

• Please use the latest version of LL (Last Legacy: Null Space RC3). If you don't have it yet you can play or download it here.

• And, at last, let's make this LDC peaceful and calm. No harassing or attacking other users. If you're planning to do that, then get ready to receive your free warning.

The theme is...

YES, THERE IS A DRAMASPACE IN THIS SPOILER: show


thanks doram <3


Image
That's right. Ruins and/or Temple! Two different themes. Be it a simple abandoned environment full of damaged buildings, or a mysterious temple overloaded with puzzles, you get to decide. Heck, you can even merge both and make a ruined temple. Or a temple full of ruins. Don't let your creativity limit you, that's already the theme's job.



Image



[DEADLINE UPDATED]

One month and one week should be enough for you to get your levels ready. It was originally 1 month but I decided to be a nice guy and give you an extra week. I am not willing to give any extensions, though. So, please, manage your time properly, and use the time you have NOW. Don't leave it for tomorrow when you can finish it today.


Image

This time, we're going to use the new judging criteria for LL.

GAMEPLAY
(25 points)

This is where the judges decide how well executed your level structure was. Was the gameplay repetitive and boring or exciting and challenging? Did the creator make it roll sweet and nice or is the level full of frustratingly hard parts? Whether if it's a puzzle, a pure platformer, a story-driven level, or something else, did the creator execute it well?

SCENERY
(20 points)

The graphical aspect of the level and how much they fit the theme are going to be judged here. The better and easier it looks on your eyes, the more points you'll going to get in this section.

MISCELLANEOUS
(5 points)

This section is for certain points of the level that really caught your attention. You can also include these on your score:

• Alternate music (But please, judges, don't go overboard on it);
• Really good execution of the theme that differs from the other levels;
• Some super complex mindblowing trigger contraction only Leonardo DaVinci would be able to pull off;
• Basically everything that is worthy mentioning.

Harmless
Karyete
Raiyuuni
Supershroom
Me (Backup)

You can apply as a judge now. Just shoot me a PM.



Don't forget to post your levels or to add your reservations in the Vault.

Enough explaining! Go and have fun! And make sure to outshine the competition!

Also before you say anything I didn't fulltable this post for a bunch of reasons, so please piss off (I'm looking at you OJ)

Hiya! It's cool that this is hosted here so we're going to get LLLDC medals, right? Actually we are still missing the ones from the 3rd LLLDC, I guess it's a thing of courtesy to award them for Kaboom / Worldsixthocean / Karyete / Doram (?), since they all have an account here.

The theme is great! I in fact almost already know what I'm gonna do.

Thank you, FF.

Nan's sig! From the previous Secret Santa event!: show
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.

legit question- how are medals going to work? because that's something that none of us even thought to considering during planning phase. Have medals for the 3rd LL LDC even been given out yet? Is this one going to be recognized as official after all, in the absence of nothing else to go on?

EDIT- nobody has got medals from the 3rd LDC yet, the LL forums do not even look as if they have medals. So my vote is for giving all of you sexy people your 3rd and 4th LDC medals here since the LL side of things is a flaming ♥♥♥♥.

I don't know if it's a vote, I'm pretty sure we agreed from the beginning that they'll get medals here too. We just forgot because no one looks at that forum

LL website has tumbleweed rolling through it and no medal system, and I'm sure it was agreed we'd get medals for the contest.
