So, now the deed of judging this level...

It was okay. There was no enemy spam, item spam, lag or loading time which I can appreciate from a new (ish?) creator. The level looked pretty clean, no cutoff and you even had decorations on that one island. It's pretty hard to add decorations when designing a sky area (and sky is mostly empty), so it's okay overall. As for the gameplay, the coins weren't too terribly hidden and weren't riddled with traps. You even added a flying cap section (something I haven't seen being used too often). This is all great, but I think this level would be even better if it were longer. If you maybe added more planets and coins, made the flying section longer and added more challenges it would be better. It's kinda disappointing how short this level is, as the beginning gave an impression of a massive level.

Well anyway, it's a good level nonetheless. 3/5

Thanks! Yes I see what you mean. I'll try that. :)

You have the potential to make good levels, dude. The area around the Toad House is really nicely decorated. However, butterflies in free mid-air are bit distracting, they rather should be near solid ground. Also, the cloud below the Cannon is slightly misplaced and the tipping log after that is shown behind the pipe, so also take care of layering (later placed items appear before previous ones, so if you placed them in the wrong order, you can delete one item or fix the order manually in the code).

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.
