Level Contest - Video Games

[h3]THEME: Video Games[/h3]

Build a level that reimagines your favourite levels or maps from a non-Zeepkist video game of your choice, from any era of gaming!

Looking for ideas? How about recreating a level or map from a classic arcade game from your childhood; a level racing through the eerie corridors of a survival horror game; recreating a side-scrolling platformer level; or a level weaving through the labyrinthine dungeons of RPGs!

[h3]DEADLINE[/h3]
  • Your track should be complete and submitted by Sunday, 30th June 2024 at 18:00 BST
  • Submissions will be combined into a single workshop item after the deadline above


[h3]SUBMISSION RULES[/h3]
  1. You can only submit one level (you can modify or replace your submission as much as you like until the deadline)
  2. Level collaborations are permitted (Maximum of 3 players per level. This counts as a level submission for each individual creator. Please name/mention collaborators when submitting)
  3. The name of the level MUST start with "ZSL - " (e.g "ZSL - My Level")


[h3]LEVEL RULES[/h3]
  1. Scaling track pieces is permitted
  2. Level MUST follow any theme requirements set above
  3. Level MUST be under 4000 blocks
  4. Level MUST have an author time above 30 seconds
  5. Level MUST have an author time under 75 seconds (1m15s)
  6. Level MUST have at least 2 checkpoints. Consider adding additional checkpoints for split timing or where it would prevent a cut, as cuts do not make for good tournament tracks!
  7. Level MUST NOT have risky or hidden finishes/shortcuts (e.g blind shortcuts or using no-collision/invisible blocks to hide a secret path that is NOT the intended route)


[h3]HOW TO SUBMIT YOUR LEVEL[/h3]
  1. Join our Official Discord server
  2. Upload the level to the Steam Workshop
  3. Link the workshop item in the theme's thread in #level-submissions

    Don't have Discord? You can submit your entry by linking your workshop item in the comments section of this announcement post!


[h3]WINNERS & PRIZES[/h3]
  • Up to 15 of the submitted levels will be used for the next Zeepkist Super League event
