I made two levels for the November 2017 contest: The Untold Tales of Gunthro Budkin. I missed the deadline, so it's not in the compilation, but if you loved those entries and feel hungry for more, feel free to check this out!

The first level introduces floor spikes, and the second introduces the staff weapon. The one-room third level mixes both for a final test. All levels are in tier one, so expect a limited palate of elements. (You might notice the occasional platform -- all they do is distinguish force arrows and light posts.)

Big thanks to mauvebutterfly, Bent, and Insoluble for testing!

I know someone who didn't read the Hold submission checklist. The challenges in Forest 3N1E and 5N1E both use "End" when the challenge is failed, so that if you trigger the fail condition and then walk out of the room, leaving the room uncleared and available to come back to, you can never get the challenge on that save. This is especially bad in 5N1E because the challenge is "don't kill any soldiers" -- and there is a soldier standing on the challenge scroll.

4N may be okay, but if you update the hold to fix the other scripts, there's a change I'd recommend making to 4N to be on the safe side:
