[Design Challenge] Character Creator 2016

Post by kroltan »

Image

Hey there! It's been a long time since the last design challenge!
So, development has picked up again, thanks to the huge motivation of bionicnacho!
He got the store working and is re-adding items to it, while Entity is fixing numerous bugs on the server, and I'm working on a updater.


We have enough programming hands, but we need your help designing a functional Character Creator level!
But kroltan, what in the world is a Character Creator level?
It's the level that loads for people first registering an account, and when you visit the Character Store from the main menu.

Rules
  1. The level must have a 8x8 flat area at height 499 at the center of the map, with the start flag in the center.
  2. There should be unlimited lives and time.
  3. The level must not contain any winning conditions.
  4. Levels must have CC16 in the title to participate.
How to Enter
  1. Create your level
  2. Upload it to the play browser, with the text CC16 somewhere in the level name.
  3. (Optional) Post about it on this thread
  4. Wait for the results to be posted
Winner Selection
The winners will be selected by a comitee, and revealed in this topic in January 31, 2016.
Prize
  1. First place: 1000 atmos
  2. Second place: 400 atmos
  3. Third place: 200 atmos
Good luck and have fun!

I'll have a stab at this...
does it have to be oriented in a specific direction for the camera to work?

Nope, feel free to build it however you want.

So does this mean I wouldn't have to use the same minimalist design that the Character Creator on the original server always used? Because I have an idea for this that I think would be cool, but it would require me to go against that template quite a bit.

Be creative :)

Just keep in mind the goal and what its intended use is.

Absolutely not! You can make it however you want, as long as there isn't a goal and is practical for the intended uses (welcome screen and trying different equipment)

Do I need to place a finish flag or just turn off any goals and make the level finish itself instantly?

Place a finish flag at infinity, otherwise the level is unplayable :P

Well, not quite. The 31st, voting will open. The way we'll be doing this is a community-wide voting session similar to the way we voted for the new forum themes. When that phase is over, you'll know who won :)
