Tip: If you make a change to your ROM that you regret, just go to File > Restore > Restore ROM to Previous State in the menu. From there, you can select a restore point and revert your ROM to a previous state.
Are we allowed to make levels be very long, similar to all those 1-level hacks, or will we get a lower percentage if we do that sort of thing? Also, if we're allowed to make long levels like that, would we be disqualified if we had multiple level tiles that lead to different parts of this one level?

I've been planning over the course of several pieces of paper. I even divided up the paper into equal sections with a ruler! I also plan to learn more for the contest, such as HDMA.
Chikane: If someone wants to make a Kaizo-style level, they can go right ahead. However, they can also expect a much lower percentage.
BLOCKMAN: It really comes down to fun. A 30 second level can be more fun than a 10 minute level, and vice versa. If the level is really enjoyable and long, then the hacker clearly knows what he/she is doing, and will most likely get a higher score.

Then I have a new question. It's perfectly okay for us to ask others who aren't judging to play our levels to make sure they're fun, right? I ask because my idea may be too long to be fun, and I absolutely cannot stand making something that isn't fun.

Awwww... I'll try, but my level will not shine as the others. It will be 1 of 600 and, well, I'm 100% sure I'wont even be in the 100 firsts.
So I'll do my best ! Lunar Magic, prepare to an 5-hour/day use ! >=D

I can see it now, with two floating munchers.

Nothing is stopping you from making a vanilla level if you really, really want to. Who knows - if your level design is solid gold, you may still do really well.
...of course, as previously stated, it would be pretty senseless to not use anything extra when you can use pretty much anything you want.
Considering how much I fail at inserting ExGFX, a vanilla level is essentially the only option. The only things custom about the level I'll make for this contest (because I do plan on entering) will be its music, maybe its palette, and of course, its layout.

Question! This is just out of curiosity, though. Since everything is allowed, Kaizo hacks would be allowed right? Kaizo hacks can be fun and have good level design, and seeing as there are no rules, it should be ok, right?
