June 2016 Create Comp - CC2 Tutorials! (First ever CC2 create!)

[random 8]

Recommendation for future create competitions: stick with the default tileset, or at least indicate in the rules what tileset(s) may be used. Things like not being able to see things like recessed walls under chips* are significant, even if they didn't really affect the rankings here.



Joshua's level: Pretty much agree with everything said about it so far, but i want to add that i think the level could have done with a bit less hand-holding. You can tell the player what they can do without telling them what to do, especially after the first 2 or 3 rooms. Also, i counted the spaces in Joshua's level because i have nothing better to do and it's 475 inside the thin walls, leaving 625 - 475 = 150 to spare.



I'm okay with the rankings, though my reasons for my level not being a good tutorial differ quite a bit from the reasons stated here. Fun fact: this is what i was going to submit before i noticed the size limit (ideally i would have had it untimed too):

I ran into a similar issue Joshua had. I found a way to shrink this to 25x25, but the level became really dense and it was difficult to see what the level was doing.


*You actually can see them, but just barely. Still affects the difficulty of H's 3rd level, since not all chips had walls under them.
