The problem is that when I do that, it stops the level test because my Pause key is set to Escape.

Uhh, did you not read the read-me? Also, how did you open if if your pause takes you out of the level (which should not happen of pause was Enter, or any other button, or playing as if it was an episode). The read-me Specifically stated that pause can not be set to Escape.

So you're saying you rigged the scores?

The Thwomp King actually told everyone to read the read-mes.

I knew I shouldn't have invested in a bootlegged clone.

I really want to know which are the HD graphics and which are non-HD graphics because I can't really seem to find the difference.
I also want to know more about the coin placement.
I can justify some of the NPC-placement because the level is meant for 1.4 and I was harshly limited by NPCs and the boss is supposed to be way longer, but I would need multiple checkpoints for that, which 1.4 has.

I think the HD-ish are 1x1 pixels (don't really know)

Anyways, will the next results be released sometime soon or tomorrow?

HD graphics aren't necessarily 1x1 pixels, but they are more detailed and realistic. Most of your graphics in terms of blocks were HD and then the backgrounds and other level objects weren't. In terms of coin placement, if I remember correctly your issue was having a good spread if coins; some areas were too sparse and others overworked in terms of coin clutter. Your justification is not an acceptable excuse whatsoever. There are so many NPCs in SMBX already, plus LunaLua for more and multipoints.lua for more than one checkpoint

I was hoping the Redrawn graphic pack would work nice, but I guess I will never use it again because of that.
Thanks for telling me about the coin placement.

That word explains me in a fine way. 10/10 the word fine isn't what it should mean

Can't wait to see if litchh or bossedit8 wins.

Wait, are you going to be busy for a while? (Either way, it's still sad since I enjoyed your levels)

You'll be a missed veteran in these contests.
