Secret Word
In the last contest I confirmed everyone's vote via PM to mitigate potential cheating (past contests have had cheating). This was a bit cumbersome, so to make this step easier, just create one unique word or phrase and send me a copy of it via forum PM or Discord. Then for each voting stage, enter that word and I'll know it's you.

Judgement Criteria
Levels should be judged on the following criteria:
- Level Design and Playability - Is the level designed and balanced well? Does it play smoothly?
- Aesthetics/Visual Appeal - Is the level enjoyable to look at? There doesn't need to be artwork, but it shouldn't be visually jarring (unless that was for the theme, in which case skip this).
- Adherence to the Theme - Does the level fit either theme? (2020 reference or holiday between Oct 31-Jan 1)
- Fun - Is the level fun to play? Would you want to play it again?
