RESULTS: December 2014 Level Design Contest
–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
I've been waiting for this moment for a long time! I'm glad everyone is finally ready. I wanted to post this earlier, but figured the reveal would be too much for the community to handle, ya know? But the anticipation is killing me, so here we go.
Firstly, hanks to everyone who participated in the contest six months ago, be it submitting a level, voting in the polls, or playing in the parties. It's always nice to get the community together and produce something neat, and even nicer when anticipation has been bubbling for six months straight.

In all seriousness, thanks for your patience. I was offered an internship right when the contest was ending and it has consumed a lot of my time this past year! Running this contest took a lot of hours and while I was happy to do it, it's been tough to find time to sit down and sort this out. I appreciate everyone waiting and assure that future contests will be properly budgeted with my available time!
