Level Contest 9: The Autumn Contest

Superiorstar · Postby **Superiorstar** » Sun Oct 19, 2014 12:03 am

Ok, so lets get this straight...
Chad and Zephyr are the most general designers, but never won any of the contest.

NameUser (Ignoritus) made two or three ToB hubs. Then Valtteri and Quill made the rest.

Valtteri made the rest of the ToBs for the year.
I think I got it now.
There, YOU HAPPY NOW?

What forum did ToB originate or did it all start here?

Stop using the term 'elite designer', ffs.

Quill and I take turns, lol. Ignoritus made the first three. Then it was Quill (TOB4), me (TOB5), Quill (TOB6), me (TOB7), and for this contest it'll be Quill (TOB8).

Honestly, I dont get why Chad and Zephyr are underrated for being good. They are the only two designers I have never really had any issues with....cus they actually know what they are doing!

From what I've seen of both designers, I'm not a huge fan of Chad's style (no offense Chad) but zephyr is amazing at designing cool and unusual gimmicks

I highly disagree. Chad has proven to take generic gimmicks and make them fun to play. Although his levels don't have the difficulty necessary to have a 1-year old gameover they are always incredibly fun to go through. I've even spent some time going through the editor and dissecting his levels in order to understand his style.

If the judges finish their judging earlier, can we end the judging period faster?

I believe it's been delayed a couple days because of Quill's exams.

But we can be patient, right?

Chad, reghrhre, and SuperMario7 are some of my all-time favorite designers, along with AirShip.

I've had some weird gimmicks in my old levels like Vile Volcano, Cannon Catastrophe, and Epic Empire. All of each are equally as hard as each other and equally live up to there names. How they are all very different in killing you: Vile Volcano spams fireballs that replace random npcs that you have to kill with a billy gun, Cannon Catastrophe has a lot of cannons that all try to kill you, and Epic Empire shows how to dodge toughly placed NPCs with perfect timing. And I still need to post Vile Volcano and get a review from Cannon Catastrophe.

I believe Chad and SuperMario7 are the coolest designers because of the gimmicks, But reocjswococjhre and AirShip need to learn to give the player some power ups. Those are my opinions at least.

Weren't you like the biggest Chad hater back then. But yes, I agree.

The only thing I dislike about his style is that his levels are FAR too easy. But over time he grew on me simply because he's a good designer. (And the only one who knows how to make a real Ghost House...)

On a related note; I can't wait to blow everyone out of the park with my super awesome and obviously pre-planned level!

I already thought you would make top ten, hope you make top three!

The reason I don't like Chad's style THAT much is because he uses the switch blocks too much. Other than that he's great (again, no offense Chad

)
