Chocolate Contest 2021 - SUBMIT HERE!

REPLIES IN THIS THREAD SHOULD EXCLUSIVELY BE LEVEL SUBMISSIONS

RULES THREAD

WHY THE SUBFORUM?
Do you have a WIP level and need feedback or testers? You can make a thread for your level ahead of its completion and collaborate with people looking to play submissions. Judges will avoid looking at this forum.

HOW TO SUBMIT
To submit a level, you leave a reply in this topic with the download link to the level. Please include additional information in the readme for the level, rather than in your post. If you wish to update your submission, edit your post and leave a note in the post notifying of the change.

In order for your level to be scored, the download link must be publically accessible. Levels will be collected by Sancles at the end of the submission period and forwarded to the judges in a package.

I recommend using services such as Google Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox or MEGA to upload your level. Mediafire is a bad choice because of its slow download speeds.

WHAT SHOULD MY SUBMISSION INCLUDE?
- The level file
- Any custom assets (music, sounds, graphics) should be in the level folder (folder with the same name as the level)
-- Avoid renaming your level folder shortly before submission... This tends to break music paths
- A Readme to specify info you think the judges should be aware of should be included in the same folder as the level file
-- Information in this file may include the preferred level name, viable characters, filters, number of exits/stars, credits, and anything else you wish to share. If you're feeling fancy, write a poem!
- Do not include any devkit elements in your submission
- Do not include your username anywhere in your submission
Here is an example:


Please make an attempt to keep the filesize of your music low. Any song larger than 6MB is just a hassle. Making looping OGG music is very easy and usually only takes up 1-3MB, too!

For any questions, please ask in the rules thread, rather than here.

EDIT:
For some reason, some people are having issues where they're asked for a decrpytion key despite this link not having one.
If that happens, try this link instead with this code: 8JRRO6Ah8jQmveHST1990nNdZRXWT5qjoA_60Rz3hak

Updated...Again
Decided to refine a couple more things and reduce the block count(seriously, sizeables are a legend) and hopefully it helps out for people who's computers have less processing power.
Updated Version

After polishing this level more than nail polish, polish people, and anyone or anything else that's ever polished, I'm updating it once more, hopefully, for the final time unless enough problems are found to do it again.
Final Version, I hope
Once again, incase the level doesn't download, here's the encryption key too:

Here is my piece, The Imperfect Foyer.

To any lurkers: this version won't contain the required libraries that would be present in the final episode. If you wish to try this level stand-alone, obtain it from my thread "The Imperfect Foyer" in this subforum.

[FutureNyanCat]

It is finally time. I'm back at SMBX level creating to submit my level!

Version 1.2.1

Spoiler: show

https://mega.nz/file/CUhTGIZD#3J_csT9oM ... PvPH2dhiq4

This level only features one exit. Good luck! If you have any issues with the download link, please let me know.

EDIT: Updated level. Changelog can be found below (SPOILER WARNING!)

CHANGELOGS (Spoilers!)

Spoiler: show

Version 1.2.1
- Taken out a cutoff oversight I finally noticed after many days in Section 5. Gotta do this just in time before submissions close!

Version 1.2
- Added extra rock blocks at the cannon pipe section in Section 6 to avoid players from accidentally launching themselves into the Fire Piranha Plant ahead.
- Slowed down the rock generator in Section 6.
- Added player passthrough blocks to the rock generator in the final underwater section of Section 6 to avoid the rock from hitting the player when they backtrack to the Cannon Box. Makes it less unfair.
- Changed the green Koopa Troopa in the last area of Section 7 to red, and modified its area to avoid players from accidentally softlocking the portable pipe.
- Shortened once again the Sewer Guard's dialogue.
- Changed one of the Dry Cheeps in Section 6 to an upside-down Piranha Plant.
- Added something neat to the vibe room
- Toned down some in-ground deco in some sections
- There's a new music track in the secret room!

Version 1.1
- Most of the Message Blocks and Signs have been changed to use the principle of "Show, Don't Tell". Which means no long dialogue to explain everything, rather use pictures.
- Tweaked a certain puzzle by swapping the Gearboxes and added a small minimap to help guide the player.
- Removed some decorations in the ground, as well as removing some waterfalls to make the level less visually distracting.
- The Sewer Guard's dialogue has been shortened.
- An oversight with a wrong tile in Section 6 has been fixed.
