Can you take the left one as a scenery object that gets replaced with the level icon (right) when the level tile is unlocked?

Edit: oops I just remembered this should be PM'd... OOPS.

Yep that's 100% doable

I actually forgot this episode is both Super Community Contest and All Stars Level Contest, but why not throw Community Contest 12 in there as well then?

So, do the sceneries have to be sprite-swaps of already existing graphics or can I make a new one that would be drawn in with lua? I'm thinking about making a lakitu that would circle around the level icon, like the one that exists in SMW.

No, just for ASLC.

I could probably make that work

A portal, a glitch? I think that those would fit your level.

For me, I am terrible at Graphics.

How much time do we have left to send you the graphics? Cause I still have no idea what my level icon could be, other than just a generic SMW level icon.

You have a while. I won't be releasing this until SMBX2-Beta4 comes out and if you're thinking you want to make your own custom icon I can just use a placeholder graphic for now

Waiting for beta 4 for an episode entirely composed of levels made for beta 3? Why...? All levels are guaranteed to work on beta 3, and if they work on beta 4 as well that's nice, but given what the levels were designed for that should really only be considered a bonus.

I'm really having problems thinking of anything in regards to that which would warrant a delay.

I mean, I think my level was designed for Beta 4, because of the Blue Switch Palace Blocks I used, but besides that (and the failed blue switch attempt as a bonus,) I do not think any level was made for Beta 4 specificity.

how do you use a switch palace in a singleton level what

how do you use palace switch blocks without access to beta 4 (when the contest took place prior to the blocks even being added) what

I used a level from my episode in the contest and my episode used World Map Switch Palaces. I did them with events and layers as well as a lua global variable, but that was removed due to the contest not allowing a world map/luaworld.lua. That actually made it a pain to submit.

Reminder that episode levels often don't make for very impressive contest levels due to how they interlink with various components of the rest of the episode.

If anyone is interested please let me know. Even a relatively barebones map just to get the levels released is a lot of work and I'm looking for some help in putting it together

Looking for a world map eh?

What style? How big? Level count?
