This was my entry for the Spring 2023 level contest. It's a traditional level where you must save Victoria from a rather chilly end.

So that is my feedback about this level.
Contest by Blu : 7.5/10.
I will be honest and probably surprising, but this level out of all the contest level is the one that handles the best core gameplay design. Yeah, it's simple scripting wise, but the difficulty is consistent, the trinkets are mostly fair but challenging and every room has unique design, which is really, really impressive. I played a lot of non custom levels recently and this level handles perfectly what a lot of levels can't. For gameplay I will definitely look into this level to get inspired. But the choice of not adding any custom mechanics, custom graphics ex ... has certainly made the creation of the level a lot easier, so I can't give the level too much credit for the design. As for the story, it is just viridian finding Victoria, which is the kind of story you see a bit everywhere, and finally I have to mention that the end is rushed and not that interesting.
But I still wanted to give this level a lot of credit for having the best core gameplay design out of all the contest levels
