Luka's Oficialy Unofficial Reviews

Hello everyone! So, as the title implies, I will be reviewing each of the worlds for round 3. I'll be judging by Art, Gameplay, Concept and Story. I'll rate each department on a scale of one to ten, and then multiply them on my view of how important they are to me. The maximum score is 100.

▼Judging Criteria

Story x1 - Most worlds aren't too story driven, and as such your world won't get too much of a boost if it is. However, a good story is always a plus.
Art x2 - I don't care too much about art, provided that it isn't so bad that it's physically distracting me from the rest of the level. I tend to prefer in-game art over minimap art, but I have nothing but respect for those who can do both at the same time.
Concept x3 - This refers to how innovative your world is. Does your world have a really cool gimmick or idea? If so, you've already won my interest.
Gameplay x4 - This is obviously the thing I'll be focusing on the most. Good gameplay is the skeleton of a good world, and as such it doesn't matter how pretty your world is, if your gameplay is on par with a minigames to code world, I won't bother staying.

So for example, let's say a world gets these ratings:
Story - 5/10
Art - 9/10
Concept - 6/10
Gameplay - 7/10

Then, we apply the multipliers:
Story - 5/10        x1 = 5 points
Art - 9/10           x2 = 18 points
Concept - 6/10    x3 = 18 points
Gameplay - 7/10 x4 = 28 points

Add up all the points and you get 69 points out of the maximum 100.

Disclaimer - These are all my opinions. If you disagree with what I say, good for you.
Let's get started!

▼The Derps

Story - 7/10
Your world had a really good start in terms of story, and I was hooked right from the start. There are plenty of NPC's roaming about with general tips or just idle chit chat. The world has a pretty decent story, and I like the witty writing.

Art - 8/10
The art is pretty good, nicely detailed and decorated. I don't have much to complain about, other than that maybe a bit more variety would have been nice.

Concept - 5/10
The main gimmick of this world is going around an ancient temple and avoiding traps that you've set off. It's not a bad idea, but it feels severely under-utilised. There are very few traps around, and as such most of this world feels like a standard level.

Gameplay - 3/10
I didn't have much fun with this. Most of the traps give you almost no time to react to upcoming danger, and as such you'll almost certainly die when you first encounter them. This is even more annoying when you realize the world has no checkpoint system, so one mistake lands you back straight at the beginning, and you have to do all of the minigames you already did before. And speaking of those minigames, they're ridiculously precise. If you jump one pixel too late you get sent back to the bottom. Please, in the future, give your players some leniency. This world is too strict and it gets a major oof on the gameplay aspect.

▼Mercury Takes Over

Story - 2/10
Maybe there is a story, but I quit on the first minigame because of how ridiculously difficult it is. It's only saving grace is that I like that "towering up" joke on the paper.

Art - 4/10
The minimap art is really well done, but it's very clear that this was the only thing you seemed to have worked on, and that all of the other elements of the world were just an afterthought. Please, never sacrifice your world's enjoyment just to make it look pretty.

Concept - 2/10
There's nothing particularly inventive or new about this world, just some basic minigames.

Gameplay - 0/10
I quit on the first minigame. I honestly could not be bothered to at the very least do that. I am very skeptical that this world was ever playtested and adjusted accordingly. Make more lenient minigames in the future guys. This is too much.

▼dude I'm so tired end this already

Story - 6/10
The story is fairly simple, you work as an archeologist and you need to discover fossils because... that's your job. It's short, but I can dig this kind of story.

Art - 5/10
There's very little art, but what's there is pretty solid. The focus wasn't on art and I can understand that.

Concept - 9/10
I love this idea! You use a chisel to dig out fossils, and it's so creative and unique! However...

Gameplay - 1/10
This was bad. Very, very bad. It's just a giant slog of a world where you do the same routine over and over again, and it went on for so long I felt like I would become a fossil myself. You're just chipping away blindly, hoping you're going to find something, and even if you do find something you have no idea where to go next. You're offered a picture as a reference, but it might have been rotated or flipped, so it isn't very helpful. You have larger chisels to make the job go faster, but if you miss with them you've just wasted 3 turns that could've been used for something actually helpful, and as such you're better off sticking with the smallest chisel, which also happens to be the slowest one. I couldn't be bothered to finish it all the way through.

▼Three Musketeers

Story - 3/10
There is not much of a story, so I cannot award many points for it, but it is very clear that this is not the focus of the level, so I'll give it a pass.

Art - 10/10
This art is simply exquisite. It perfectly captures how EE used to look in ye olden days, and it just leaves me saying "woah"

Concept - 10/10
Classic EE is a really brilliant idea for the theme you were given. I really don't know what else to say. It's brilliant.

Gameplay - 8/10
Overall a really fun world, it really nails the classic EE theme you were going for. My only issue is the last minigame, which I found too clunky and precise. It's fairly infuriating, but I powered on through it. Other than that though, this gameplay is very well made.

Story - 2/10
This grammar are real. The story is about you dying so you can go to heaven to meet your grandpa. This story could work, but in this case it just doesn't. You really need to learn grammar if you want people to take your stories seriously, peace.

Art - 0/10
This art is just awful. There's literally only two block types in the entire level - The cloud decoration and the gold bricks. The entire map just feels empty, and there's nothing that sticks out. There's almost no decorations and everything meshes together into a big pile of muck.

Concept - 1/10
Last time I checked there isn't one, unless you count dying so you can go to heaven a concept.

Gameplay - 0/10
Just. Awful. There's hovers, edge jumps, low jump segments, extremely precise jumps and low ceiling jumps. There is nothing redeemable about this.

▼MusicMan

Story - 6/10
The day of reckoning has come, and you must escape the gameboy and save yourself. I really like this story, despite how simple it is.

Art - 8/10
This art is just very nicely done. It really looks like EE has been ported to the GameBoy and it's just very well done. My only gripe with the art is that it looks kind of eye-rapey in some areas, namely the static that appears every now and then. Other than that, this looks great.

Concept - 9/10
EE on a GameBoy, what more could you ask for?

Gameplay - 6/10
The gameplay is mostly fine, but near the end of the world the difficulty ramps up, real fast. The very last minigame is a great example of a ridiculous difficulty spike. You should playtest your levels more, since if it wasn't for that insane difficulty near the end, the gameplay would have been an 8, maybe even a 9/10.

Story - 9/10
I never knew you were so morbid, Different. I really just love this story. A retirement home that's secretly an organ extraction facility? How far out can you get?

Art - 4/10
This art is pretty simple. It's not too distracting and uh... That's about the most good I can say about it. I wish you used more decorations, since except for one room they were underutilized. I think you should've continued the in-game art that the first part of the level had, since after that part the art takes a bit of a nosedive.

Concept - 8/10
I just really love the concept of going through the entire organ extraction facility. Really creative and unique.

Gameplay - 3/10
This level wasn't all that fun. Most of the minigames felt dull and very precise at the same time, and they would have benefited greatly from a bit more leniency and in some cases, telegraphing. I also don't like that if you go right at the first intersection, you run into a switch door and have to backtrack to get the switch. Fairly annoying.

Story - 7/10
You are destined to climb mount Fri Quin, however you need to master the two ninja skills before you're ready to accomplish such a task. A pretty solid story.

Art - 4/10
This art is pretty alright. Most of the art makes me believe you just trolled with backgrounds/blocks with no real thought into where they were placed. I liked the interior design of the houses the most, but everything other than that needed more decorations.

Concept - 5/10
Get two effects and climb to the top of a mountain I guess. It's not too innovative, but it isn't a bad idea by any stretch of the imagination.

Gameplay - 1/10
This was awful. The gameplay is separated into two parts - Jump and Speed sections. The jump section was alright, though I struggled a bit on the second minigame due to a pixel perfect jump. Maybe if the checkpoint system was more lenient it wouldn't have been as bad. The speed section is utter trash, however. The minigames are way too precise, which is doubly irritating when you have the slipperiness of the speed effect. After you finish that, you have a poison segment where you need to utilize BOTH of those abilities to overcome it. And the best way I can describe that portion is "spike hell". More checkpoints would have helped, since doing the entire spike hell minigame with speed effect and a time limit to worry about is extremely annoying.

Story - 10/10
This humorous writing is the best thing about the level. Very few worlds manage to make me laugh, but this world is just too good for my mortal eyes.

Art - 7/10
This art is fairly solid throughout. I really love the wacky and energetic character designs and expressions, and most of the world is nicely decorated. I really like it.

Concept - 8/10
I really like the idea of going through multiple worlds of classic EE. It really reminds me of my "EE Void" worlds.

Gameplay - 5/10
This gameplay was clearly rushed. The minigames do have that classic EE feel to them, but most of them are fairly boring and un-interesting. I know what this team is capable of and I wish some better gameplay could have been added. Nonetheless, the gameplay is perfectly fine.

▼TMS

Story - 4/10
Your grandpa is dying and you need to take him to the hospital, but you don't have enough money, so you need to collect 30$ or the hospital will just let him die.

Art - 4/10
This art is very simple, and pretty bland. The minimap is fairly empty, and most of the buildings (except the Space Needle) are very generic blocky buildings. The sky felt fairly empty, and it could have benefited from something like a hot air balloon or a zepellin flying above the city. The art isn't too distracting though, so it's okay.

Concept - 4/10
It's basically just a coin hunt in a city but with poison effect. That's about it.

Gameplay - 4/10
The gameplay is extremely basic. Most of the coins are placed in some very not-out-of-reach spots, and I didn't really put in much effort in finding them. There is a time limit, but it's so lenient that it might as well not have been there at all. I wish there was something more exciting, but that's it honestly.

The story is barely explained, but from the single NPC that explains it, you're a mass murderer and you need to kill people to live longer. It's uh... Okay?

Art - 10/10
This is Kira, Lictor and Kaleb we're talking about. Of course the art is phenomenal.

Concept - 10/10
I honestly just love this idea. Every time you start a run you have a set time limit. You need to kill people to get more time, and then you use that time to kill even more people and to keep feeding this cycle.

Gameplay - 8/10
I really liked the idea of the world and I had a lot of fun playing it, but during the second half of the world I felt fairly bored because I was just doing the same thing over and over again. Other than that, this was a well made world.

Story - 10/10
This is one of the best story driven worlds I have ever played. This story is so poetic and emotional, and that ending actually made me feel sad, which is a rarity for me when it comes to EE worlds. This story reminds me a lot of that one scene in Up, and I love it. If I could rate more than 10, I would.

Art - 10/10
This art is simply phenomenal. I especially loved the art for the proposal scene, which honestly just wowed me.

Concept - 10/10
This concept is really creative. Reliving your entire life in the span of one world. Nicely done.

Gameplay - 8/10
This is where the world starts to fall behind a bit. I really liked the gameplay, but it's just that I found it fairly boring and dull. I understand that gameplay wasn't a focus, since "Do this T-jump to read more of the story" is not really a good approach for this style of world. However, I still wish you could have made better minigames, so that this world would get a perfect score.

▼Radioactive Sunflowers

Story - 9/10
You're going on a field trip to a museum to learn about Earth's history. Other than that, there is plenty of witty and somewhat informative writing. The characters in the game all act like wild children, which is just the perfect representation of all school field trips.

Art - 6/10
The art is fairly solid. Some minigames could have benefited from more shading and decorations, but overall this art is pretty good and not too visually distracting.

Concept - 9/10
I really love the idea of going through prehistoric events to see how Earth was formed. It's just really creative and original, and I love it for that.

Gameplay - 4/10
This gameplay is okay. It wasn't too frustrating or anything, but it felt kind of dull. The minigames consist of: Jump into portals, Do an easy parkour segment, Do another easy parkour segment, Spin around to collect the coins and dodge obstacles in low G. You should really try focusing on gameplay next time.

Considering the theme you were given I can't really dock you much for the story, but I can't really reward you either. This applies to all other levels.

Art - 8/10
I really like the art, both minimap and ingame. Really screams classic EE. Some more decorations and backgrounds would have made it even better.

Concept - 4/10
The world started out with key minigames, which I hoped was going to be the gimmick of the world, but I guess I was wrong. Other than that the world doesn't do much original.

Gameplay - 8/10
I had a lot of fun with this world! It really reminds me of ye olden days, and that's pretty good. I still wish there was something more to this gameplay though, but it's still fairly good.

This art is really well made. I don't have anything to complain about. It's pretty great.

Concept - 3/10
The world doesn't have anything new or intriguing, which is kind of sad.

Gameplay - 7/10
The gameplay is fairly solid, but a good chunk of the minigames feel pretty generic and lame, like they belong in a "Minigames to code" world. You should probably avoid making those.

This world isn't all that original or creative, and it doesn't seem like much effort was placed into anything except art.

Gameplay - 2/10
This gameplay is awful. It consisted of hookjumps, stairs, elevators and spinners. They weren't too frustrating to deal with but they weren't really fun either. Make some quality minigames next time, guys. You can do better than "Minigames to code".

This art is pretty good, however I wish there were more decorations and backgrounds.

Concept - 3/10
Nothing much going on here. It's a pretty average level.

Gameplay - 2/10
I didn't enjoy this level a whole lot. Most of the minigames here are stupidly precise and require too many almost pixel perfect moments to pass. The world has some unneeded backtracking, which adds nothing but annoyance to the level. It could have been a fun level if you made more player-friendly gameplay.
36/100

▼guardians of the soap hoard

Story - 8/10
A world got trolled and you need to escape it, but you need to collect 50 coins before you can leave. A pretty good story.

Art - 3/10
The reason this got docked so heavily was because of the heavy use of NPC's. They do not fit in with the rest of the 2010 blocks and I believe that regular face blocks and signs would have sufficed while still keeping the theme in tact.

Concept - 7/10
You have to navigate a trolled world to collect 50 coins so you can win. I really like this idea.

Gameplay - 6/10
I had some fun with this world. The trolled minigames were decently enjoyable and I didn't find any segment I particularly disliked. It can be better, but this is a pretty good world overall.

This art is incredibly well made, and it nails the classic EE theme. It reminds me a lot of EX Crew's art, and I really love that.

Concept - 3/10
Nothing really new or creative here. Kind of a shame really.

Gameplay - 4/10
This game is merely fine. The world feels incredibly short (even for a medium world) and the minigames are over faster than you can say "EX Crew was lamer than I remember". A higher focus on gameplay would have helped this world considerably, since I know that this team can make some pretty good minigames.

You can breeze through thiese mindlessly easy minigames in about a minute without thinking for a second on what you're doing. The gameplay feels just as empty as the art and it would have been better using the same solution - more obstacles.

This refers to the "Don't spam keys" message, so the story score gets a small boost.

There's something about this world that I really like. I know that this gameplay isn't all that good, it has a stupid stair minigame and has fairly bland gameplay throughout, but there's just something about this world that just gets to me. It really tickles that nostalgia bone better than most other classic levels. It kind of made me feel like a child again, and I really love that.

The score gets a small boost because I liked the "who cares just follow the coin" joke.

There's nothing of any substance here. No decoration or variation. Just basic blocks and some basic backgrounds. I know the theme encourages the use of classic blocks but this is silly.

Concept - 2/10
Not only is this level beyond unoriginal in terms of concepts/gimmicks, but it takes the worst aspects of classic EE and just lumps them together into one world. Something more original would have been greatly appreciated.

Gameplay - 1/10
This is awful. It has stairs, hookjumps, arrowjumps and a minigames to code segment. None of this is fun in any way shape or form. The best part of the level is cerainly the last part, since you can actually see a hint of originality in there, but it's over before you even get a chance to blink. Please avoid utilizing such overused obstacles in your levels.

"Go crawl through a dungeon" is the best way I can describe this masterpiece of a story.

The art is fine. It clearly wasn't a big focus of the world, but what's there is pretty nice.

Concept - 7/10
The dungeons seem to be randomized, so you can play this world multiple times and get different minigames. I kinda like the decent amount of replayability this world gives you. Though the world is too small to make each playthrough feel different from the last one.

The minigames are also fairly decent. Some of them are almost pixel perfect jumps, but nothing too frustrating to deal with considering how short the level is.

Peace is it that hard to at least re-read what you write? You could make the most epic story to ever exist and I still couldn't take it seriously if you have this grammar.

Art - 2/10
If you ignore the Mario block that was obviously stolen from a "Pixel art in Everybody Edits" YouTube video, this art is nothing special or interesting. Just some black and white bricks with spikes and coins everywhere.

Concept - 5/10
Though I kind of like the gimmick you came up with. You get a random effect and have to deal with the obstacles by utilizing what you were given. It feels pretty exciting to get a cool effect that can actually be useful. But boy oh boy this gimmick wasn't utilized well at all, because...

Gameplay - 0/10
I don't even know where to start with this mess. First of all, let's talk about why your gimmick is trash. You can get ANY effect, which means there's a chance you can get zombie effect, poison, low jump, slow effect or a different gravity, and if you get any of those you might as well just jump into the spikes. Sometimes though, you can get two effects at once, but this once led me to getting both zombie and left gravity, and I got stuck in the spawning area. And the zombie effect lasts 999 seconds, so I just quit. I also noticed that the trophy was locked behind a coin door, and if you die too much before getting the required coins, you can't win. And the only way to get gold coins is to get an effect you haven't gotten before. This means that you rely solely on luck to be able to beat this world. This entire world is just a giant loot box.

I don't like how you can view the switch system to solve the riddle without actually solving it. Ruined the fun :/.

These are some really fun minigames. I especially loved the ones that use secret blocks, as they really give you that a-ha moment that really fits in with the mystery theme you were going for. One of the minigames was a bit on the pixel perfect side, so the world gets docked slightly.

Good gameplay. It requires you to think a bit. My main gripe is that it's really short so the gimmick wasn't utilized all that much. Still really fun though.

Story - 5/10
You're a taste tester and you have to figure out what's in the food you're eating or you and your family lose everything. Not a bad story.

Art - 4/10
This art has some decent moments, but it has its bad moments as well, namely the third section of the world, which is a complete eyesore. The score also gets docked due to the fact that the spikes are fairly hard to see.

Concept - 5/10
This idea isn't too bad, but it could have been utilized better

Gameplay - 2/10
Didn't have much fun with this one. It's so unnecessarily tedious and repetitive, and it doesn't help matters that it's hard to notice the obstacles due to the fact that the art is so distracting. The world boils down to - Do the same bad minigame 3 times, get the clues, and then do a test that seems like it was designed for a goldfish to solve. This world is a major step-down from your last world, which I wasn't too fond of to begin with.

There is nothing of any value here. NOTHING.

I'm honestly not even sure if the first minigame is possible. This world clearly wasn't tested and was made in the biggest rush possible.

▼Intromania

Story - 6/10
A cat blesses you with its nine lives so you can survive your adventure in the ruins. I really like that story.

Art - 7/10
This art is fairly good, but kind of plain. There are plenty of decorations and backgrounds at use, which is always a plus, but I think more blocks and block types would have been nicer, since the thing you primarily used was the grey temple brick.

Concept - 3/10
I kind of like the concept of a cat giving you 9 lives, which is a clever way to tie the concept and the story together, but other than that the world doesn't do anything particularly original or new. Just a fairly standard level.

Gameplay - 3/10
The minigames in the world range from decent to annoying. It doesn't help that you're going to have to do them multiple times, as I doubt you're going to beat this in your first attempt. The "It's meant to be difficult" sign doesn't justify the bad level design of this world which leans a lot on the frustrating side of things. It also feels kind of stupid to have 9 lives but you're forced to lose at least 5 of them to grab all of the coins, and it makes me wonder "why not just make it a 4 life world??" One thing that would have really helped this world was to not force you to restart as soon as you hit 9 deaths, so that you can practice this world instead of having to lose your progress every time you reset.

41/100

Other notes: It's a bit of a step down from your last world tbh. Maybe if you had something less frustrating it could have been better, but oh well..

There's not much art, but what's there looks fine. Art wasn't a focus and that's understandable, but that doesn't make the score go up.

Concept - 5/10
It's a pretty ambitious idea, I have to admit, but...

Gameplay - 0/10
I have no idea what's going on. Did I miss something? I don't understand what I'm doing wrong but every time I play a note the crowd just leaves. I tried reading everything but there's no useful information anywhere. I have no idea what to do.

I guess the only story is "get out of a mountain without dying too many times", which is just one of the best works out of literature to ever grace this Earth.

This art is pretty good, nicely decorated and it has that simplistic charm that reminds me a bit of sensei1's worlds. Nicely done.

Concept - 2/10
Other than "don't die" this world has pretty much nothing original to it.

Gameplay - 8/10
A really fun world! There wasn't anything I really disliked about the gameplay, other than that it really needed a gimmick or a better concept to make it fresher. I've had an instance where I didn't spot some dots because they kind of blend in with the background, but that's a bit of a nitpick.

The art is very bland and empty. Even for a mario-themed world.

Concept - 3/10
You play Mario in EE. Considering how this idea was done dozens times in the past, I can't really give you much props for creativity.

Gameplay - 2/10
The world goes from very bland and dull basic jumps to very precise and ridiculous platforming in the snap of a finger. This difficulty curve is ridiculous.

Other notes: I expected worse, but this turned out to be one of your better worlds Peace. Not a good world, but still a slight improvement.

▼studios ghibli

Story - 8/10
This is a nicely written story. Simple, yet endearing. I especially loved the signs you wrote for the "surrender" option, got a small chuckle out of me.

Art - 8/10
There isn't a lot of art, so the score gets docked a bit, but what's there looks really, really nice. I don't have much to complain about other than I want more of it.

Concept - 10/10
This world just oozes creativity. It takes the limited lives theme and spins it around so that it represents your health instead. I love that.

Gameplay - 8/10
Really enjoyed this world! I like how there's a steady difficulty curve, it represents how the monster is starting to get more and more desperate to survive so it launches everything it has. However, the world is fairly tedious. The monster has a lot of HP and you can only do one point of damage per turn. It would have been better if the monster had less health, and maybe the player can have less health too to counterbalance it. But still, this is a great world.

80/100

Other notes: This world reminds me a lot of my "The Parva" world, and uh... That's neat.

▼/end quote

Story - 8/10
You've been transformed into a cat and you have to find the cure to it. This story by itself is maybe a 6/10 but there are plenty of signs around if you want to read them, which is a really nice bonus.

Art - 9/10
This art is simply exquisite, though my only nitpick is that the lava background you've chosen as your obstacles don't really look good with the rest of the world.

Concept - 10/10
Every time you die your corpse becomes a platform that you can use on your next life. This is such a great gimmick that just wows me.

Gameplay - 10/10
This is fun. Very fun. It has puzzle elements, since you can only die 9 times before having to redo a section again, so you have to conserve your deaths to use them as platforms later on. I really have nothing to complain about, this is great.

96/100

Other notes: This is the best world you guys have made thus far in the tournament, and I really have to commend you on the sharp improvement.

▼Radioactive Sunflowers

Story - 10/10
This story is really well written. It has such a wacky atmosphere to it that it reminds me a lot of the way pingohits writes his stories. It has a lot signs and a decent amount of NPC's that further support the fun atmosphere this world tried to make.

Art - 8/10
This is some pretty good art, though it feels a bit lacking in terms of decorations in certain areas. Other than that though this looks pretty nice. It has a simple artstyle that seems to suit the story you're trying to tell quite nicely.

Concept - 7/10
I really like the story, but it isn't too creative outside of that. The world gets easier the more you die, which is a pretty nice addition to the "Limited lives" idea.

Gameplay - 7/10
Nice level, had fun with it, though I'm not really a fan of low speed and low jump effects. The double jump compensates it, but there's a feeling of sluggishness when you're moving around. I'm also not a fan of the final boss segment, since when I first played it I didn't notice the switches opened so I just fell right through and lost my last life. Also, if you enter the portal to attack the boss, the portal can bounce you up instead of down, so instead of removing your curse it just sends you back to the boss battle with your timer almost drained, and this happened to me twice.

75/100

Other notes: Please don't murder me Azure I like the level this time.

▼Dragons

Story - 0/10
There is no story.

Art - 2/10
This feels very rushed, like, wow. A color palette consisting of blue yellow and black, and nothing else.

Concept - 5/10
I have to admit though, the gimmick is pretty cool, kind of a shame it wasn't utilized better.

Gameplay - 4/10
Most of the world is fine. The gimmick is really cool, but very badly explained, so a better tutorial would have been really beneficial to the world. I really, really do not like the last minigame. Did you really have to make it upside down? It would have been much better if you had just made it normal gravity. In the end I wasn't able to beat the world within the death limit because the last minigame keeps stealing them from me, like an arcade machine that forces you to insert all your quarters by making the final boss have insane attacks.

35/100

Other notes: It's pretty obvious that this world would have been much better if your teammates decided to help you out, but as it is right now, this is a pretty sad level.

▼Final Thoughts on This Round

This round had a bunch of hits and misses. Out of 8 worlds I didn't manage to beat 2 of them, one of which I didn't beat due to confusion (Mercury Takes Over) and one of which I didn't beat due to a very high difficulty (Dragons).
I didn't find any major stinkers in this round, as the lowest score is a 24, belonging to bring peace
My personal favorite has to be /quote's world, and I once again have to commend you on making such an amazing world. They have a score of 96, which is by far the best rated world in the entire tournament.
The average world score is 53.75/100 which is about what I expected from the loser bracket.

▼The Derps

Story - 5/10
You want money I guess and want to go to the casino? I don't know really. The plentiful NPC's that behave like real bar-goers were a nice touch.

Art - 9/10
This art is simply phenomenal. It represents the atmosphere of a casino very well and I have nothing to complain about.

Concept - 9/10
Really noice gimmick where you need to play casino games to earn enough money to enter the VIP room. Very creative and unique.

Gameplay - 8/10
Honestly this gameplay is really great. It's consisted of only 3 fairly basic minigames, but there's just something about how this world does it that makes it so much fun. Even losing feels kind of fun, like a motivator to make you try again to recoup your lost money, just like a real casino! My only complaint is that it starts to get kind of boring near the end, where you've mastered the hardest (but most rewarding) minigame and have nothing to do but to farm that minigame until you have enough to enter the casino. Maybe lowering the required amount of money would make it less annoying.

82/100

Other notes: This is a much welcomed improvement over your previous world, which I found to be decent. Keep it up guys!

▼Three Musketeers

Story - 1/10
Honestly I don't understand what the story is. The signs make no sense and are just confusing me even more.

Art - 10/10
This art is phenomenal though, but it's really the only good thing about the world.

Concept - 0/10
I guess random garble can be considered a gimmick. I also fail to see how this relates to the theme you were given.

Gameplay - 2/10
Most of these minigames are utter trash. The world starts out fine, but that last minigame is just awful. It's just so specific and annoying to do, and I still don't know how I beat the entire world. I had very little fun with this.

29/100

Other notes: This entire world is clearly rushed. A third of the world seems to be reserved for a "winlist" which is very clearly just there to fill empty space.

▼MusicMan

Story - 3/10
You need money and I guess and you go to a casino? This story seems awfully familiar....

Art - 3/10
This art is honestly pretty bad. Everything looks awful. It feels incredibly rushed, and I really hate that.

Concept - 8/10
This concept feels like a knock off of The Derps's level, but I have nothing to support my claim so all I can do is assume that this is all a coincidence.

Gameplay - 0/10
I didn't beat this level because of how ridiculously tedious and boring this is. All of the minigames are absolute dog **** and it feels like this was made in a few hours, maybe even less. I cannot be bothered to get past 100 coins yet I need 300 to win the world, and losing your money is incredibly easy to do with this awful gameplay.

I really love the blend between serious and silly writing. Nicely done.

Art - 10/10
This art is really nice, I gotta admit. I especially loved that first person perspective at the start of the world.

Concept - 8/10
The gimmick here is that every time you collect a coin the world gets harder, thus you have to think carefully of which coins you collect. It sounds good on paper, but...

Gameplay - 0/10
This is just horrendous. There is absolutely nothing redeemable about this gameplay. It's so bad that I actually considered giving gameplay negative points due to how bad is it. I'm not even sure if the world is possible. It has so many precision jumps, low ceiling jumps, hookjumps, ice, mud,  ridiculous fallback, and a TIME LIMIT to do all of that. Did you guys seriously not realize that the world was getting too hard for anyone to realistically beat it? My god.

Other notes: This is honestly the worst world I've played in this tournament thus far. Even though it got 50 points, this is just.... I really don't know anymore.

Concept - 10/10
I love how you can place your own checkpoints and choose how difficulty you want the world to be. Another plus is that every time you use a checkpoint you get more health. But...

Gameplay - 1/10
Honestly just. This feels rushed, very rushed. This level is so infuriating that even after 6 attempts and using every checkpoint to make the world easier, I was still unable to beat the world. There's a difference between difficult and frustrating, and this level definitely leans on the latter. The minigames rely too much on trial & error, as I doubt anyone is going to beat this world or even come close to beating it on their first try. Maybe it would be fine if I could retry as many times as I like, but I have a limited amount of lives to beat the level with! The biggest offender is definitely the very last minigame. It would have saved me so much grief if the minigame didn't reset every time you made a slip-up, and considering how hard it is you almost certainly will. And then you can see your lives, one, by, one. I had no fun with this world.

I really like how you can upgrade your gear to get more coins to further upgrade your gear. Really nice.

Gameplay - 9/10
This is a very sweet short little level! The gameplay is incredibly fun, and the world really encourages you to take bigger risks to get more coins. My only gripe is that there's lava in one area, and while I didn't fall in it myself, a player accidentally fell in there because he had speed effect. The world would have been better without that lava pit.

87/100

Other notes: This world is slightly weaker than your previous one, but hey this is still pretty amazing.

▼Final Thoughts on This Round

This round was really swingy. You have some phenomenal worlds and some really awful ones. I honestly expected that no more bad worlds will be submitted, but I guess I was wrong.
Out of the 8 worlds I was unable to beat 4 of them, either due to tediousness (MusicMan), the fact that the world is unfinished (Different55), or because the world was too tedious to beat (2 french 1 cup &  beeef broccli)
The lowest score was a 0, belonging to Different55
My favorite in this round is definitely "dude i'm tired end this already" with a 90/100. Very few worlds force me to strategize, but this world managed to do just that. This world is a major improvement from your last world, so congratulations.
The average world score is 53.37/100 which is a lot lower than I expected it to be. Hope it improves starting now.

Story - 4/10
People are getting abducted from beach by aliens and you have to... steal stuff from the aliens? The story could work, but I feel like it could have been further expanded on. Some more signs or NPC interaction would make it better.

Art - 2/10
Even though we're supposed to be on a spaceship, it doesn't really look or feel like something extraterrestrial. There's very little variation in terms of backgrounds, blocks and decorations. More of everything please.

Concept - 2/10
This world takes place in a space ship, but really that's nothing particularly new or innovative here.

Gameplay - 4/10
This gameplay is fine. There's nothing that I found particularly fun about this world, but I didn't find it too frustrating either. The coins seem to be scattered in a random manner, like you just added them without even thinking about what the best place to put them would be. All of the minigames are just basic jumps and movements, so a sensation of dread loomed over me as I played.

Story - 4/10

Art - 7/10
This is some pretty good art, I especially liked the storm happening above everything. My only gripe is that the world would benefit from a bit more background usage, but hey what's here is pretty good.

Concept - 4/10
It's basically just accident prone. Every time you die you get a different message that explains how you died. It's an okay gimmick, but it's been utilized better before, and outside of that the world doesn't have much else going for it.

Gameplay - 5/10
This gameplay is sorta decent. It's consisted of very basic jumps and the level by itself is quite short, even for a medium world (since you don't need to go to the sky section to beat the world). The poison effect is way too lenient, you can beat the entire world and still have half the bar to spare, kind of making it a pointless addition.

▼"dude i'm so tired just end this already"

Story - 6/10
You need to cross the bridge that only those with the burden of knowledge can cross. I really like the riddle-ish way this world presents it's story, which is a great way to tie the concept with the story.

Art - 6/10
I'm fairly mixed about this art. On one hand, I can understand that such an artstyle was intentional so it could fit with the rest of the world, but on the other hand, I just simply don't think it's good. It's empty, bland and overall really needed more detail. The artstyle sticks out from the rest of the world, but I don't know if it's in a good or bad way.

Concept - 10/10
I really love this gimmick though. Using all of the hints that you've gathered to cross the bridge is really clever, and as I said before, perfectly ties in with the story of the world. Amazing.

Gameplay - 7/10
Most of this gameplay is really good. It's consisted of puzzle-like minigames, reminiscent of Looks Can Deceive, and I love that. The minigames you need to do to get the hints were really fun. But then, we have... The bridge.. And then the world steps into ridiculous territory. How was I supposed to figure out that answer? The hints don't explain it very well and they managed to plant the wrong idea in my head, thus I was unable to beat the world on my own, someone else had to explain it to me. Unless you're an expert on EE physics I don't know how you can beat this on your own.

76/100

Other notes: If you need a walkthrough to solve a puzzle, you should feel like an idiot for being unable to figure it out on your own. Frankly I don't feel that way at all. The bridge minigame is stupid.

▼Radioactive Sunflowers

Story - 9/10
You want to be the best chef in the world, so you make cupcakes to prove to your friends that you are amazing. By itself the story is quite solid, but the clever and humorous writing just boosts it up to 9/10. Though I still don't know why you posted a link in a sign, I can't copy and paste it into the address bar... soooo...

Art - 8/10
This is some pretty good art, though my only issue is that I don't understand what some of the objects are supposed to be, but other than that this is pretty great.

Concept - 10/10
A really fun concept. Reminds me a bit of irresponsibility, but I think this is done much better.

Gameplay - 7/10
Very fun world, the minigames are fun and work well with the core idea of the world, though the thermometer minigame caught me off-guard when I first played since I had no idea I was going to be randomly teleported into the thermometer. My other issue is that you can make godawful cupcakes and still win the world, kind of making the minigames irrelevant, as you can just skip them without worry that you won't be able to win. That was kind of lame.

Other notes: This is clearly just a joke world, but still, I was hoping you'd make another amazing world like you did for losers round 5. Oh well...

▼Final Thoughts on This Round

This round leaned a bit on the unexpected side. Out of the 8 contestants only 5 of them submitted, which is kind of a bummer, but considering how stupid the theme is and how most people are too busy to make anything, it's understandable.
Out of the 5 worlds in this round, I managed to beat all of them, though I relied on help to beat one of them (dude i'm so tired's level).
My personal favorite for this round is Radioactive Sunflowers who got a score of 83. Nicely done.
The worst scoring world belongs to Different55, who had a score of 30.
The Average score is 58.88/100, which is lower than I expected for this late in the tournament. Hopefully that number raises starting from the next round.

Art - 9/10
This is some mighty fine art, love it.

Concept - 10/10
The world consists of puzzles that require you to use your jumps in a careful way. Every time you get a puzzle, you gain another jump. I really love this idea, and it really gave me a sense of progression with every jump I received.

Gameplay - 8/10
This gameplay is simply amazing. Very few worlds give me such a fun, yet brutal mental challenge like this one did. Even though I struggled a lot trying to figure out what I need to do and where I needed to go, I was never diverted or discouraged from accomplishing my goal. Every puzzle was designed in such an exquisite manner, however the gameplay gets docked slightly for some particularly annoying jumps, more specifically near the end of the world.

88/100

Other notes: Even though it has less points, I believe that this level is even better than your round 5 world. It likely has something to do with the fact that I really love good puzzle worlds, but still.

▼Radioactive Sunflowers

Story - 2/10
Your forest is under attack, and you play as an animal with your goal being to defend the forest before it gets destroyed. By itself the story is okay, but most of these signs felt very... cringy to me. Like a child trying to plagiarize the way pingohits writes his stories, but does a sad job.

Art - 5/10
This art is perfectly average. There's nothing particularly bad about, but nothing special about it either.

Concept - 8/10
You are able to play as multiple characters who each play slightly differently one from another. It's a pretty good idea and gives the world a bit of replayability.

Gameplay - 4/10
You can play as multiple critters, which sounds nice, but since there's so little variation between them it's kind of redundant. I would have much prefered one playthrough that was really good rather than five mediocre playthroughs. Most of the minigames felt very bland and unoriginal.

This round consisted of one great, one decent, and one awful world. Uh... Yay. Only 3 out of 4 contestants submitted a world and I've been able to beat 2 of them, with the only one that I was unable to beat belonged to SHUTU P.
My personal favorite in this round was a no-brainer. It was /quote's world with a score of 88 points, and it is quite possibly one of the best puzzle worlds I've played in a long while.
My least favorite world was SHUTU P's world, that had the amazing score of 0.
The average score was 46,66/100, which is a lot lower than I had hoped it would be.

▼The Derps

Story - 2/10
You're a factory worker, but you hate your job and plan on quitting. You go to sleep and have a dream of a peaceful forest and a nice quiet beach. The story is pretty solid, but there are plenty of pointless signs and NPC that don't even say anything funny or interesting. There's literally an NPC that just screams "REEEEEEEE" three times. It detracts from the experience.

Art - 5/10
This art has good elements and bad elements. Some areas look decent while others are so detailed that it's physically distracting (the factory)

Concept - 2/10
Honestly this world isn't all that creative. Since it's a lucid dream you can change your environment, but all that means is that you can sometimes press a switch and the minigames change slightly.

Gameplay - 3/10
This world isn't all that fun. Most areas feel very bland and uninspired, and the lack of a cool gimmick doesn't help issues. It gets particularly bad at the end of the level, where you need to do an entire section with only one checkpoint, which is the worst part of the entire level.

▼beeef brocoli

Story - 8/10
Your mom's birthday is coming up and you need to buy her a present. The thing that really saves this story is the humorous writing. Love it!

Art - 7/10
The world looks pretty good! It's nicely detailed and decorated, but it feels unfinished. A solid chunk of the world feels empty, but most of the world is pretty nice.

Concept - 7/10
Depending on the type of tea you drink, you can either have a nightmare or a dream, and that alters the world slightly. I like the idea, however it could have been further expanded upon.

Gameplay - 4/10
This gameplay is fine, however as I mentioned before, the world feels unfinished. All you need to do is buy the correct gift for mom on her birthday, because if you buy her something she doesn't like she will disown you. The thing you need to buy could have been hinted at in a better way though. These minigames can be boiled down to "Jump on this rope or this platform" which is really mundane and boring.

59/100

Other notes: Onjit was the only one who worked on the world, so I can understand why the world feels so unfinished, however that doesn't increase your points.

▼2 french 1 cup

Story - 6/10
Someone did the stabby stab and you have to figure out who the murderer is out of the 5 suspects by invading their dreams. It's a murder mystery, but it lacks most of the things that make a murder mystery good. The killer is extremely obvious that it's not even subtle.

Art - 7/10
This art is fine, but I know that this team can do much better than this. I do really like how the village looks though.

Concept - 8/10
The concept is that you need to enter people's dreams to figure out who the murderer is, which is a pretty neat gimmick!

Gameplay - 7/10
This gameplay is pretty good. There are 5 minigames in total and they're all different from one another in terms of how they play. Most of the minigames very pretty fun, but I really did not like Chesthead's dream due to the fact that it was too repetitive. Most of the minigames have annoying fallback, where one mistake brings you to the start of the whole minigame, which was fairly annoying. Other than that though, the world was pretty good!

72/100

Other notes: Much better than your previous world.

▼Final Thoughts on This Round

This round was pretty fun. All 4 contestants submitted a world, and I was able to beat all 4 worlds.
My personal favorite was "2 cups 1 god" level, which had a score of 72 points.
My least favorite for this round belongs to MusicMan, which had a total of 26 points.
The average score was 45.75/100 points, which makes me sad.

Re: Luka's Oficialy Unofficial Reviews

[Radioactive Sunflowers]

by that description it seems like you'd give more points on art and.. I guess I'm a little lost, you told me that there was too much going on.. so I remove a shade, and now it needs more shading?  Like I barely removed anything and now it's too little, but one block type more, it's too much.  Confused.

As for gameplay.. I dunno, others have said the gameplay's the best part of the map, as it offers a few different methods of playing.  It was what was most focused on the map, as I did not think I could compete in terms of story compared to my opponent's.  If you simplify any gameplay like that, it'll sound boring.  Most worlds are parkour courses, so I switched it up some.  Also the parkour parts have a few ways to win, with a quicker but harder way, or a longer but easier way.  You can jump directly off the dino's nose and probably die (but still possible to make it), or take the charge along its back to safely leap across.  For mosquito game, you can skip a fruit with well-timed jumps.  I saved the solar system minigame for last as I thought it was the most fun, and have been told it was a very unique gameplay segment.. which I thought it was too.  Solar cycles also allowed different paths on the 2nd and 3rd segments- the first being barren, to allow the player to adjust to the new game style.  And then there's also a bonus hard mode if you want a slightly harder version.

I am happy to see you liked the concept and story tho, as you seemed very skeptical about it when I discussed the idea. 

as for the total scoring.. those point totals should convert to a 70/100 28/40 = 70%, or 75-80% based on review of art.

Re: Luka's Oficialy Unofficial Reviews

Azure - For art I suppose what I meant to say is that you need better shading. In the places where art was below par I believe you needed to utilize the blocks you used in a better way for it to not look as bad as it does. Sorry for the confusion, I could have worded that better.

In terms of gameplay, I really don't know what to say other than it felt very dull. These are my personal reviews, and as such I don't really care what others think about it.

The reason I was skeptical when you told me that idea was mostly because I misunderstood what you said the first time. The story and concept are pretty good and are the best parts of the world.

And I do judging differently than NorwegianBoy. Gameplay is much more important to me than Art, so one point to gameplay is worth twice as much as a point in Art. If you take a look at the judging criteria you can see the multipliers I used for this calculation. For your world it was:

Story          9/10 x1 = 9 points
Art             6/10 x2 = 12 points
Concept      9/10 x3 = 27 points
Gameplay   4/10 x4 = 16 points

It adds up to 64 points. A slight error on my part, but yeah.

Re: Luka's Oficialy Unofficial Reviews

Hmm, actually i was the only one out of five judges that voted for Azurepudding’s level. Due to the fact that i preferred the great gameplay in the musEEum over CK and Unau’s story and art. (As good as it was) So wouldn’t that mean i prefer gameplay and creativity in gameplay over art and story?

It adds up to 64 points. A slight error on my part, but yeah.

I see now, but.. I don't know what to say, I mean EE has a limited palette so colors are limited too.  I will say tho that the solar cycles Play/Back section was very lacking in shade and detail, but everything else honestly looks fine to me.  Also "you should have utilized the blocks to not look as bad" is both insulting as it is unhelpful.. "it coulda been better" doesn't give me much to go off of.

And.. shrug, for gameplay, I guess I just don't understand what you mean by dull, since there is a variety of gameplay styles and different paths to take.  It's not like in most worlds where there is one solution- there are two or three ways to go, some being riskier but quicker than others.  That much is objective, but not finding it fun can be subjective.  But calling it dull makes it sound like it's not varied when it is.  The gameplay was the main focus, seeing how my opponent's world was mainly platform parkour for every segment.  That's the only area where I felt I had the edge, everything else tho they were stellar.  I wanted to do more than just platform parkour, tho I had some of that still.  Geode game simulated you swinging a pickaxe down to mine gems, and gravity game had you orbitting around in the solar system, with your smiley masked as a blue planet.  Some refinement could have been done, but dull, when it's a series of short games that switch up the gameplay, feels.. incorrect? to me.  How could the gameplay be improved?  More minigame types that break away from standard parkour?  But why are other parkour-only worlds rated higher

Re: Luka's Oficialy Unofficial Reviews

More variety is nice, however none of the minigames in your world felt fun to play to me.

The pikcaxe minigame is you just jumping in the highlighted door, with no real penalty for missing. I don't know how to describe it other than "It's boring." Maybe if it had a time limit or if it was more strict I would put more emphasis on accuracy.

The mosquito minigame is a very basic jumping minigame. Sure you can skip a fruit as like a little time saver, but other than that there is nothing interesting there. It really needed another mechanic or something, since as it is right now it looks like a minigame I could put in a 200 minigames to code world since you swat it aside easily and then move on with your day.

The dinosaur game is a slightly more elaborate parkour minigame. It has some okay platforming, but it ends fairly quickly. It isn't all that different from the mosquito minigame in terms of mechanics , thus it's kinda throwing a wrench into your "variety" point.

The Big Bang minigame is just spinning around collecting coins that you don't even need to collect. This is literally just a minigame that you can skip with no consequences for doing so. Maybe if I had to get all the blue coins and dodge some obstacles it would actually have a sense that the minigame is worth my time. And no don't give me that "If you skip the minigame you're purposefully ruining your own experience" nonsense. I shouldn't be able to skip it and ruin my experience at all!

The Orbit minigame is by far the best of the bunch (Or the least worst), but it's so mindlessly easy that I really don't have to try very hard to beat it. Just slightly press up or down and good job you won the minigame. Even if you somehow managed to fail that minigame, there's no real penalty for doing so, since the checkpoints are so generous.

Re: Luka's Oficialy Unofficial Reviews

is it offical or unoffical? title doenst explain it well oh and:

Story - 2/10
This grammar are real. The story is about you dying so you can go to heaven to meet your grandpa. This story could work, but in this case it just doesn't. You really need to learn grammar if you want people to take your stories seriously, peace.    wrong youre not dying you just meet god in his pyramid and he takes you (while your still alive) to heaven

Art - 0/10
This art is just awful. There's literally only two block types in the entire level - The cloud decoration and the gold bricks. The entire map just feels empty, and there's nothing that sticks out. There's almost no decorations and everything meshes together into a big pile of muck.    yeah art its true these 0 points i guess it didnt had much art tbh so ya

Concept - 1/10
Last time I checked there isn't one, unless you count dying so you can go to heaven a concept.    wrong the conecpt is you wanting to find old things come along in this pyramid and search it

Gameplay - 0/10
Just. Awful. There's hovers, edge jumps, low jump segments, extremely precise jumps and low ceiling jumps. There is nothing redeemable about this. there is 1 hover yes gennerally it isnt even a very hard level to beat

5/100 i expect a bit higher score okay it may be low byut 5/100? rly?

And no don't give me that "If you skip the minigame you're purposefully ruining your own experience" nonsense. I shouldn't be able to skip it and ruin my experience at all!

Just slightly press up or down and good job you won the minigame. Even if you somehow managed to fail that minigame, there's no real penalty for doing so, since the checkpoints are so generous.

I had poison effect in mind at first, but I thought it'd be a more enjoyable experience if the player could take their time.  The dinosaur minigame was going to have a time limit because of the asteroid, which you fought so hard for me to get rid of.. and I did.  Geode game can be made a little tougher if you refrain from using the double jump and without sliding across while holding down.  I don't really know how I could have forced more difficulty without a poison effect, which I felt would be forced and wuld be unnecessary stress.  It was only used in solar cycles so that touching a block would eventually kill you, as toggleable spikes aren't available.

I did make a mistake with the blue coins, as I had replaced the blue coin door with a death one, but I should have had both.  But, like old EE levels, they had no purpose other than to just collect for a sense of accomplishment.  That you 100%'d the map.  One of those coins are a little tricky, but overall it's not too hard and is another thing to do.. or not do.  If the player wants a quicker experience, they can, if they want to do everything, they can also do that.  It doesn't feel fair to rate lower because of that option.

Skippable.. well.. I mean, as easy as I thought my previous worlds were, I've seen a lot quit part way through.  Even on this world as well.  The idea was to make a world easy, but put an optional bonus at the end for those who desire a little more challenge.  This time being all gold coins and no deaths (and also shoulda have been all blue coins).  But deathless seems mildly challenging enough, as it can be kinda easy to slip up on the final minigame, or if you fall into the tar pit.  While some things are skippable or able to be breezed through, the ability to do so is really in your hands.  It's like complaining that a game's easy mode is too easy, when a normal mode is available (and maybe there's also a hard, but I don't think my map is that hard).  If easy is too easy, that's not really the game's fault.  The world is short enough that a deathless run isn't an impossible task, in fact it's entirely doable, so if it's wanted a player can easily /reset if they die to restart their quest for gold.

As for the rest of your thoughts, I can't really argue against you not having fun, as that is subjective.  But as for the difficulty and generous checkpoints, that's just complaining about easy mode being easy, and I didn't want a hard map to begin with, I wanted something new players and average-skilled ones to enjoy.  I aim for easy-medium usually, sometimes easy, sometimes medium.  It is also a contest world, and while I do not think the judges are unable to complete a hard map, they also have a lot of maps to play through, so I did not want to artificially lengthen the map with really hard jumps and spike gaps and etc.  I mean you've also complained about some maps being too hard.  Too easy, too hard.. both extremes maybe not the most desirable, but if I want more people to enjoy my map, I'm going with easier.  Fun over frustration I think, and, I dunno, I guess you require more frustration to have fun, but I think otherwise.

I'd also like you to stop calling my stuff "awful" or how to make it "less awful," as this isn't helpful at all, and is just you being pointlessly negative again.  You're the one who wanted in my world so much when it was visible false, so I mean clearly you wanted to see.  You called it a trolled mess and that no thought was put into the art and etc.  And you were there to see me work on it for literally dozens of hours and should know that these insults are that much harsher.  You're free to not find the world fun, but please knock it off with these insults.  They're more acceptable (but still mean) for low effort worlds but you KNOW I put loads of effort here, but you really don't seem to care.

If you don't want to listen to my advice on how you could've made your world better, then that's perfectly okay, but right now you're just throwing a tantrum like an entitled child. I do not like your world. I believe that it's not good. You need to accept that and move on.

If you're going to continue acting like this don't expect me to respond any more. I really do not want to deal with this.

I was talking about the advice I've given recently, the ones you responded to earlier. Though honestly it doesn't matter much anymore. I've said what I wanted to say.

Side Note: I finally finished all my reviews for round 3. Considering how time consuming this was I'll probably not do any reviews for the next round.

No rush with them.  I might make my own reviews after the contest myself.  But with each round, there are less and less worlds to review, so there's that.

Re: Luka's Oficialy Unofficial Reviews

thx luka for the review on my world. I do agree my world wasn't the best but I'm not an old user myself so I really didn't knew what to make. I looked at Egg Hunt 2's block palette and tried my best with it. I had a feeling the world was bland and thought I could've lost, until I realized my opponent was "the awesome team". RIP that team btw
