Looks interesting
Well, let's get to work.
I'm confused
We can make more than one level right ?
Well this is gonna be fun.

Only one level can be submitted. Added that to the guidelines; surprised that I didn't before.
Glad to see this contest is finally up and running, and I will see if I can build up an entry in time. Nice theme as well, as I've seen a lot of hacks trying to mimic the design of the original Kaizo Mario and sometimes could succeed in their attempts.

Are you alive or just breathing?
I just didn't want to spoil being a judge so I just left it at not feeling like competing. Glad to see this getting off the ground even after a period of indifference. I like the change in formula.

Nice to see this up, I'll get started on my level sometime.

Just to clarify, secret exits aren't allowed right? You said only one exit, but I wasn't sure if you meant only one level by that.
Why no outside sites? I'm pretty much if not completely out of space in my filebin so I use dropbox instead and it's pretty reliable.
One question, can use ExGFX?

ExGFX, on the other hand, is not going to be judged, and inserting an immense amount of ExGFX will likely distract from the level design.

Secret exits count as exits, so not allowed.

I suppose there's no reason to restrict it. Changed guidelines.
This would be my first time making a serious kaizo level, it's kinda scary and challenging but exciting #w{>=)}

Just one question:
Can we use midway points? and under which restrictions?
Same with Nox. Not exactly first, bu my first one with much effort.
Good luck to everyone!
Ooh, I might give this a go. Haven't made a Kaizo level for some time.
Would unfairness lower my points? I'm not going to do it excessively, maybe
one or two kaizo traps (don't worry, you won't have to hard reset to escape.) in the level and maybe a goal trap.

I was wondering the same thing. I'd also add surprises, like surprise flying fishes or other falling enemies that come out of nowhere, or unmarked invisible coin blocks.

You're free to use midway points.

Things like invisible coin blocks and surprise enemies were elements found a lot in the original kaizo mario world, so no, they won't lower points at all. What will lower points is a high amount really difficult sections that require a lot of slowdown, as stated in the guidelines.

I mean, if someone does work with you on it, it's not like I'd know. What I mean by that is whoever posts the entry is the one who gets the credit for it in the contest.
