Hello. This is my first contest. Its a level contest. There will be 3 judges, My brother, ny cousin and I. Here are the rules:
You may use custom sprites, music, ExGFX, Patches, etc. Basically you can add in any custom material to your level.
The level must be purely your idea. Do NOT steel any ideas from another hack that you have seen. You may, however, make a level that is based of a level from an actualy video game exp; recreating Treasure Trove Cove from Banjo-Kazooie, recreating Thwomp's Fortress from SM64, recreating Crystal Caves from DK64, etc.
Those are all the rules. Pretty basic and lenient. This is what the judges will be judging:
Originality: Basically if its something we have never seen before or have rarely seen we will give you more points. If it is something we've seen too much of we will give you less points so try to be as creative as possible.
Design: Here we will judge how well the graphics and sprites all come together in the level. Try not to mix and match styles too much or it may not come out too well.
Layout: Here we will judge the level's layout. This is basically just how you set it up. This means we look at how you positioned the platforms and sprites, stuff like that.
Music: Here we judge the music you have in your level. We will look at how fitting the song is to the level.
That is all the stuff we will be judging. The deadline for you entries is May 1st. You are to submit the level in video on youtube or any other video streaming site you may be a member on, then posting up the link to the video on this thread. If your not a member on any of those types of websites but are still interested in joining, PM me and we can try to work something out.
