I switch my signature a lot. If you wanna see some of my past ones, here you go.
Silent Conversations and a Crow's Final Song!
My latest story, and one of my personal favorites. A girl bound in silence finds the words to say to her prospective girlfriend as they visit her religious father in a dusty town on the edge of Kansas, where the crows' migration south brings forth anchored memories, the path to resolution, and a new start.

Form (25quared)
This might be like nothing you've seen before.

Original: Jealous Ghosts of the Mississippi
The story of Rachel meeting Amber after a lifetime of silence and being shunned

He means it would be an entry that everyone can edit.


And I'm saying no to it because it relates to the "Unfinished Level" LDC.

Usu, if you're a good level designer, you could make all of those levels. I know that after some thinking, I could make all of them. :ugeek:

The only one's that will never ever work in that list thar is 1(blood is too difficult to incorporate into a level=too specific), 8(One tiny Tavern as a level?), and 11(Too specific).

You're basically saying I suck.
Actually, something I forgot to mention. Most of ?!?'s ideas were too simple and easy-thought. And think about it. +10 people get in a LDC. When they see the theme is one of those, they'd be kinda small on ideas.

2.) Animal Shelter level4 made bats and stuff before. Still, wouldn't it be cramped enough to have to walks above/below the animals on the zoo?
3.) Sewage SEWERS have definitely been done before. ...Omfg I always forget background tiles. I admit this could work. Doesn't it still seem a little weird to have blue water on a Sewage?
4.) Titanic Exploring the ocean/surviving the sinking of the Titanic Exploring the ocean would not be related to Titanic. Surviving the sinking Titanic would need a Titanic, and isn't it hard/laggy enough to make a Ninny out of Rotating blocks/tiles?
5.) End Of The World I don't even have to explain that this can work. I said it could work.
6.) Tsunami Aftermath of a Tsunami/rotating blocks set to make a Tsunami effect Would end up too glitchy. Bump against a wall surviving the tsunami, you get thrown off out of the stage.
7.) A Level Featuring The Avatars Of Some Members level4ness rotatingblocklaggyness
8.) Demonik's Tavern
9.) Rockets level4ness+ SPACE/ ABOUT TO BE sent into space, have to prepare for the trip. I do understand you can make a rocket from the outside. The inside may be just a waste of space. And you'd have to use debris to go around the space, as only a rocket is too lame for a LDC theme. About to be sent for space is a good idea, but still, both imitate the 10th LDC theme.
10.) Old Super Mario Games Revived Level Could work, but we have MIC here, who has almost never played a videogame Explained right there.
11.) A Level With Skateboard

3.) Sewage SEWERS have definitely been done before. ...Omfg I always forget background tiles. I admit this could work. Doesn't it still seem a little weird to have blue water on a Sewage? It's better than brown water. :awe:
4.) Titanic Exploring the ocean/surviving the sinking of the Titanic Exploring the ocean would not be related to Titanic. Surviving the sinking Titanic would need a Titanic, and isn't it hard/laggy enough to make a Ninny out of Rotating blocks/tiles? Sorry, I didn't specify enough. Exploring the ocean AROUND the sunken ship/Exploring the sunken ship
5.) End Of The World I don't even have to explain that this can work. I said it could work. I was agreeing with you. :awe:
6.) Tsunami Aftermath of a Tsunami/rotating blocks set to make a Tsunami effect Would end up too glitchy. Bump against a wall surviving the tsunami, you get thrown off out of the stage. At least now we know what happens when you die from a tsunami. :awe:
7.) A Level Featuring The Avatars Of Some Members level4ness rotatingblocklaggyness Who ever said they had to be within the same level transition?
8.) Demonik's Tavern
9.) Rockets level4ness+ SPACE/ ABOUT TO BE sent into space, have to prepare for the trip. I do understand you can make a rocket from the outside. The inside may be just a waste of space. And you'd have to use debris to go around the space, as only a rocket is too lame for a LDC theme. About to be sent for space is a good idea, but still, both imitate the 10th LDC theme. Meh. True.
10.) Old Super Mario Games Revived Level Could work, but we have MIC here, who has almost never played a videogame Explained right there. Rawr.
