Re: MaGL 3 results: dinosaur land world tour (tm)
The weird magical R move was probably the Peach Bomber (her side-special in smash bros.), author person just forgot to remove the ability to scroll the screen with R so they overlapped weirdly.

Re: MaGL 3 results: a magl of ice and fire
...Political video recommendations. On a raocow video. ZOG OFF, LOSER VIDEO.
...Ahem. ANYWAYS, here's today's levels.
THE STROLL was pretty nice. Playing as Peach in Lunar Magic is something you don't see often. I have no idea what that whole R thing is about, but it's there, I guess.
Now then, Lethal Lakeside's pretty great. The 'fusion juice' is a nice fallback on some of the harder jumps. The bonus room was incredibly creative, as are the uses of dolphins. Not once am I reminded overly of Kaizo Mario, and that's a good thing. Difficulty is basically perfect, music sounds great, the level looks great... this would easily be top 10 material, were it a level participating in this contest directly. Good job, Koopster. (and thanks for giving my 'level' decent marks)

Re: MaGL 3 results: a magl of ice and fire
woah it's my level!
the dash thing everyone talks about wasn't even supposed to be there. i used this patch: https://www.smwcentral.net/?p=section&a=details&id=6142 and the r dash refused to go away no matter what i did. so, i figured that people dont press directions when they r scroll so no one would notice! i was kinda wrong. i shouldn't have brought attention to it with the giant Rs, but i thought r scrolling would be useful.
also the reason it was so short was because i ran out of ideas. i wanted to do something cool with riding shy guys and beezos but i couldn't think of how.

VIDEO
GAMES
wasn't centered smh
e: i dont know about you guys, but i can never suspend my belief enough to get behind lava that ascends and descends and just falls straight down like that. Obviously for a gameplay element it's pretty boring only limiting yourself to descending and keeping flat, but idk it's just one of my pet peeves. great levels though, both of you! (that buzzy beetle thingy felt like it should've led to a secret exit, or at the very least been training the player for a situation they'd have to do later. either way it was a fun little challenge).

Re: MaGL 3 results: a magl of ice and fire
Proposal to make all future SMW contests judged exclusively by how high the judges get on the goal tape
Today is the story of a man's journey on the nature reserve where he accidentally feeds the wildlife across multiple realities, setting into motion a chain of events that ends multiple facets of the multiverse. In order to atone for this mistake, he settles into a reality where he avoids this tragedy by drowning the patient 0 of the disaster. His solace is short-lived, however, when he finds that his reward for halting for the destruction of all that is and all that will be is 1 (one) large, novelty coin.

Re: MaGL 3 results: a magl of ice and fire
Ah, I had sort of nursed the vain hope that the judge levels would be a sort metatextual remixing of elements which had occurred in the entries which came before them. This may sound odd considering that at least two of them were made during the general submission period, that is to say before it was clear exactly what elements would be recurring, but as chance would have it, it's precisely those two which best fit the theme thus far. FrozenQuills', after all, seemed to be a sort of playful commentary on the romps and 105 edits we saw in the first few entries, and the

Re: MaGL 3 results: a magl of ice and fire
I made a 7 minute video of your level ;-;
As for last minute stuff, I've been literally doing my English work at the LAST MINUTE (it's due online, and I do it in lunch and the passing period right after lunch). yeah

Snazzo! Now we just need Koopster to give his dissertation on how volcanic islands, leaping dolphins and Fusion Juice™ are symbolic of somewhat better developed romps peppered with the occasional overly frustrating level.FrozenQuills wrote:Totally on purpose :D

Re: MaGL 3 results: a magl of ice and fire
Now, now, folks, I think we can all agree that woids are for noids, and noids ruin pizzas. No need to get aspirated, just sit back, relax, have a nice IPA, and stop all that stress from turning 'plosive. Imagine you're lying on a nice sandhi beach, or if you prefer, return from a lovely romantic liaison where you and your partner really clicked. In either event, I amb mora less certain you'll find that harmony you seek.

Re: MaGL 3 results: a magl of ice and fire
Wow today's level really was tragic, interesting how one pipe didn't break the game but the other one did.
Calling it now, my level will appear in the next three days.
