Somehow this happened.



This ever happened to anyone else?

I'm confused. Did you randomly grab it or something?

I think he collected a Shine Sprite and then got booted out of the level, but not into Peach's Castle? Definitely is weird.

The shine is in the middle of the huge rotating grass planet, and the starting is a bit far left from it. Probably it is a very strange kind of bug, although I'd like to hear a bit more about the before-and-after.

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.

It happened to me once. I don't exactly remember how I did this, but I think I just grab the shine sprite and then switched the tab (I was using the browser version of SM63).

Switching tabs has a very weird affect on SM63, I can attest to that.

It might be flash related, Last Legacy likes to paint your level if you switch windows or tabs then click back.

Well, pausing the game before switching tabs should help, I do that a lot both when playing and designing

I was not playing on a browser… so switching tabs wasn't it.
I managed to fall after getting the shine and some land in a bottomless pit, and then this screen displayed.
When I clicked save, it acted like I was still in the level.

If you were playing the download version, you probably hit some kind of combination of buttons that messed with something, like Ctrl + Shift + Left or some similar combination.
