Here are the judge's reviews, because you're probably too lazy to check the contest thread, like me.

21. HenryRichard - Now YOU'RE the Space Invader! (7.57/10)
- Bomber57 (8.25/10)
- Do all the space levels have to use the Magicant music? The space invader enemies were pretty cool, and the level looked beautiful. I especially loved the glowing star trees. Some parts of the level got a bit too crowded with the enemies. You also could've informed the player of some deadly bugs involving the airship pilot section, but otherwise it wasn't too bad. Nice level.
- Lovely space level with aliens hovering around in this area and later a swarm of them. This was a very nice level and I really like as of what you did with the whole airship piece as of how it was used that way. Clever! Not much to say since this level is based on space, has nice variety and challenges... and it was just great. Spinjump requirement to defeat those invaders and some of them are even chasing ones... huhuu!
- This is a cool level. The complex platform and pipe arrangements combined with the cunningly-placed enemies create an intriguingly tricky and careful experience. The atmosphere is gorgeous and compelling too, and contains a high level of detail. It's a little bit shortlived, but what's here is still quite enjoyable. I didn't care much for the fact that Section 2 wraps, though. It's not introduced or explained to the player nicely, so when I got to the left edge and tried to do a running jump onto the sizable, the wrapping was completely unexpected and almost landed me facefirst into a chasing enemy. The airship piece, though really interesting, functions weirdly. There's a reason most people don't attach it to layers. Going through there was awkward because usually the entire ship is your hitbox, so I kept alternating between making sure enemies didn't hit any part of the ship and just blazing through making sure they didn't hit me in particular. The cannons have such a low rate of fire as well that trying to kill them is tedious. I think you should have just gone with the Clown Car or something.
- The sections are pretty short, but there's a decent amount of variety between them. I liked the level wrap in the second section.The mechanic with the boat isn't something you see too often and it was neat, although there wasn't much challenge or length to it. It was fun to see it present though.
- This is a nice level taking place in space. The space ship ride is a good example on how to use the infamous glitchy airship piece from the Lakitu tab. Attach it to a block arrangement and don't place any solid obstacles in the course.
