Oh damn.

At the very least I can judge and score your level if/when it's done.

I figure if Zero wants to duel I will duel him. He's complimented me a few times publicly and his style is similar to mine, but he does things on a next level I could only DREAM about. Plus, I could probably use a 2016 level.

The theme should involve a story, since we're both good at that. Or at least, experienced. But a second theme should be added- I said I wanted to downsize and I meant it. I usually use a hundred thousand tiles to make my levels. A theme should be that 10,000 is the limit.

So there's the themes- 10,000 and Story.

If you're in a duel or are busy or anything like that say so, but I know I am at least committed a little, which is saying something for me. It may take me because I have both a job and a ♥♥♥♥ computer, but I live near the library and when I start in school I can go there. What sayeth you?

Yuri is in a duel with me, but none of us are really doing anything, not sure when we're gonna start...

However, I wouldn't mind taking you up in your challenge. You're one of the people I most want to duel really. What do you say? |:)
Some day I'll fix my sig.

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.

Hey, I got an interesting idea for a LL duel (or maybe a LL contest even).

Vanilla levels. This means restriction of many exclusive features of the LL designer, so your level rather feels like a classic Mario-style level. Precisely, it means the following:

  • No customized colouring of any tiles and items.
  • Triggers may be only activated from switches, treasure chests (item drop only) and reading signs / NPCs (text and dialogue only). No triggers from enemies or coins or hitting platforms (exception: touch-and-go effect) or invisible hitboxes (exception: changing music).
  • No changing HP of enemies.
  • No changing gravity in Course Properties and no upgraded weapons right at the start (what you could effect by code editing).
