Gregor's Ultimate Secret Santa Thread

Postby Supershroom » December 19th, 2015, 9:13 am

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to this year's Secret Santa! :D

Basically, post here if you want to participate. You'll have until the 21st to register, and then I'll send you the name of whoever you gotta make a gift for. The deadline will be on the 31st, so you would have around 9-10 days to come up with something to give. It can be anything, a drawing, a sigbar, a musical composition, a story / poem, a quick level of SM63 or LL, a game, money, I dunno. Anything goes. :lol: For real though, you don't need to spend any money for this

If you wanna sign up, you should consider your possibilities of getting something done until New Year. You may get a small extension until the Holidays Forum is graveyarded if necessary. In case someone should miss out due to an unseen incidence, I'll just fill the gap with another quick SM63 level.

At the end all gifts will be rounded up in one post.

Anyway, let's get this show on the road!

Participants so far:
- Arturia
- Santa Gregor (Supershroom)
- Jack Frost (FrozenFire)
- Ice Queen (MessengerOfDreams)
- Ruby Falcon (Raiyuuni)
- Killswitch
- *Emelia K. Fletcher
- NanTheDark
- nin10mode
- Merry Magpie (Magnen)
- JollyGuy 99 (awesomeguy 99)

EDIT: New deadline is on January 4th. I already have at least half of all gifts. :>

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.

Oh... I didn't know that. I didn't really ask anyone permission for this... :P

I guess MP3 can give you this thread if you want to run it.
Some day I'll fix my sig.

Silent Conversations and a Crow's Final Song!
My latest story, and one of my personal favorites.

This might be like nothing you've seen before.
