Author	Topic: Will there ever be another level design contest?
The Mystic Infiltrator Member # 7488	written Monday, September 18 2006 05:33 Profile #0 I first learned of SubTerra in late 2002, and I missed the level design contests for 2003 (I didn't know how to work the editor yet) and 2004 (I didn't know how to submit a level). As far as I know there wasn't a contest for 2005. Will there be a level design contest for 2006 or (looking into the distant future) 2007? -------------------- Either I'm crazy, or everybody else is nuts. And I know I'm not crazy because the little man who lives on my shoulder told me so. If people don't think there's something wrong with you, there's something wrong with you.

BainIhrno Infiltrator Member # 5132	written Monday, September 18 2006 17:00 Profile Homepage #1 I hope so. I'd love to see new SubTerra levels, and it may even motivate me to make some levels of my own. And there WAS a 2005 contest, it's just that Radiant is very busy at the moment to do judging, he'll finish eventually.

The Stew Boy Infiltrator Member # 2836	written Monday, September 18 2006 21:12 Profile #2 What I think is probably going to happen is Radiant will collect all the levels from 2005 and 2006, and put them in one contest. Like instead of 2005 level contest, it'll be 2005/06 level contest. There weren't that many levels for 2005 anyway, the amount seems to be diminishing each year.

The Mystic Infiltrator Member # 7488	written Tuesday, September 19 2006 06:41 Profile #3 There was a 2005 contest? Shows how far I am behind the times. I still hope there's a contest this year, though, because I plan to (hopefully) submit about a dozen levels--minimum--no matter how good, bad, or ugly they are. If I knew how to post levels, I'd gladly show you some of the ones I've completed so far. And BainIhrno, if you want some motivation to make new levels, I think I have some: This may be a little off topic, but when I started learning how to use the editor, I had actually planned to make an entire level set (probably won't happen, unfortunately); I even made myself an "Intro" level. -------------------- Either I'm crazy, or everybody else is nuts.

BainIhrno Infiltrator Member # 5132	written Thursday, September 21 2006 17:52 Profile Homepage #6 I have made about two levels now, I want to release them in sets of five, and they'll be on my website. Since I'm only starting up in the SubTerra community, I have to ask: should I do anything after testing my levels before release? -------------------- "Let us see what the new day brings." - Temas, Areni.

I'm no novice to the game, but I'm almost a complete newbie to the community. The only thing I can say for certain is to make sure your levels work. In other words, if you click "replay" in the editor, the solution should play out. I also noticed that people who post multiple levels at once usually put them in a zip file. -------------------- Either I'm crazy, or everybody else is nuts.

BainIhrno Infiltrator Member # 5132	written Thursday, October 12 2006 18:47 Profile Homepage #8 At last, my first five levels are released! Get them at The Realm of Bain-Ihrno! They're pretty easy, assuming most to all of you are better than me. They're also pretty mediocre, but they ARE my first.

They're pretty easy, assuming most to all of you are better than me. They're also pretty mediocre, but they ARE my first. Your first levels are actually pretty good, from my standpoint. I'd show you my earliest disasters I created and called levels, but I've long since deleted them. :) Easy levels are fine, too; Zozo & Isi's levelset is really well-done for being full of fairly simple levels. The fact that I ate about half of it for lunch has no influence on this opinion. The most difficult level I've created by far has to be "Trigger Happy Super Nasty," a complete rework of the original "Trigger Happy" that (I think) lives up to its name, which I posted on the CaravelGames forum as part of my 6-level zip file. -------------------- Either I'm crazy, or everybody else is nuts.

Andraste Agent Member # 1934	written Friday, October 20 2006 21:47 Profile Homepage #10 I really liked SubTerra when it came out. Now would be a good time to download it. How many (good) player made levels are ou there? :Edit: The link on Radient's website doesn't work. Where else can I get it, or can the link be fixed?

Also, there are a ton of player-made levels at this forum that the Stew Boy pointed me to about a month ago.

I've seen somewhere mention of several dozen levels made for it, so you might convince Radiant to release what he has, if he decided not to finish it. If the only thing the game was missing is more levels, that problem can be fixed by releasing it here. :) -------------------- Be careful with a word, as you would with a sword, For it too has the power to kill.

The Stew Boy Infiltrator Member # 2836	written Tuesday, December 5 2006 20:37 Profile #20 Here is a zipped version of ST2. It's uploaded on the other SubTerra forums. If the above link doesn't work, go to this page and scroll down to the post that has it attached. Radiant said that he didn't mind my uploading it on the forums, so I see no problem posting it here.
