We here at Viddatunes Construction are SICK TO DEATH of all these guessing contests where the creator makes all your guesses for you and everyone gets full points. There are just so many! We are putting a stop to this and building from scratch an all-new type of guessing contest where you gotta GUESS IT YOUR OWN DANG SELF!!
Preliminary Walkaround
-We got 60 tracks for you to guess what game they're from!
-Just 1 of them is a sus amogus imposter that hails from no video game!
-Guessing the video game a track is originally from gains you 2 points! And I mean track as in master, not composition (though obviously I don't care about nitpicking between ports or remasters).
-Guessing the series a track is originally from gains you 1 point! Spiritual sequels will count for this if the game's got no proper series of its own.
-Guessing the imposter counts for 5 points, because everyone at Viddatunes is so proud of you, but you can only make one guess at it!
-Double points for being the only one to guess a game correctly!
-If you've previously held out on VGM guessing contests because you only get like 2 correct, I really hope you try this one out and enjoy it. I made a concerted effort to keep a decent amount of them pretty recognizable and guessable. 16 of these I have personally determined are "easy", which to me means I expect at least 50% of people here to get them, if not immediately then at least after some chin-scratching. So if I'm anywhere near right, you're guaranteed like 16 points! And if not, you will get a compensatory invitation to my will reading.
The Gimmick
It's level editors! 11 out of the 60 tracks are featured in games with level or map editors. That's it! That's the gimmick!
Your Tools
Don't be fooled by the title; I don't expect you to do this alone. You can purchase tools to help you build it up! Tools can do one of two things:
- Ask for a hint on one track. You only get one hint per track!
- Pick three tracks to learn which of those three conform to the gimmick, if any.
-The next 2 tools cost 1 point.
-The next 2 tools cost 2 points.
-I am not giving you more than 6 tools. That's plenty to fill a toolbox.
Roadmap to Public Opening
Send your guesses (and tools) to me via PM (or DM on Discord if you see me) by March 23rd, 2023, 11:59 PM CST! That's 10 pm for California. You can update your guesses until then, but I'll just take what you last sent me.
