Editing Creator Contests

'''Creator Contests''' are made by RobTop and the moderators for players to create levels for the game's [[Gauntlets]]. There have been nine creator contests, creating levels for 16 different gauntlets.

The first six contests were announced on Elder Moderator [https://www.youtube.com/@viprin Viprin]'s YouTube channel, and all subsequent contests have been announced on [[RobTop]]'s channel.

|-|Magic=
The Magic Gauntlet Contest ran from October 6th to December 1st, 2017. Unlike other contests, players did not make full levels, but instead individual sections of two "mega-collaboration" levels that would be the 4th and 5th level in the Gauntlet. There were two sub-contests, the Unknown Creators contest and the Famous Creators contest. The Unknown Creators contest was only open to players with 15 Creator Points or fewer, but the Famous Creators contest was open to anyone.

Two levels were uploaded to Etzer's GD account, one for the Unknown Creators contest and one for the Famous Creators contest. The Unknown Creators level was named {{GD Fan|Odyssey}}, and the Famous Creators level was named {{GD Fan|Empyrean}}, both using music of the same name composed by Etzer himself. Both levels were split up into 15-second sections, with speed portals and color channels already set up that any creators must adhere to. Creators could submit gameplay and decoration for as many sections as they wanted, but only one section could be chosen from each creator.

===Rules===
*"Magic" theming
*5 or 6 stars in difficulty for Unknown level, 7 or 8 stars in difficulty for Famous level
*Fewer than 15,666 objects per section
*No speed portals or color channels could be changed from how they were placed in the original level
**In addition, all colors must be placed as triggers, not in settings

Players could submit multiple sections for the contest, but only one section per player could win a spot in the level.

The Random Gauntlet Contest originally ran from July 18th to November 16th, 2025, before the deadline was extended to December 14th. The ten best levels were added to the Random and Chance Gauntlets, which released on January 19th, 2026. The ten winners each won $500, and honorable mentions each won $100. Unlike previous contests, the levels are not ranked, instead simply having 10 winners and 10 honorable mentions. All ten winners were guaranteed at least an Epic rating.

===Rules===
*Random Trigger must play a core part in the level's gameplay and visuals
**Must be a newly-created level, despite older levels using the Random Trigger already existing
*Classic game type
*Long or XL length
*Fewer than 100,000 objects
**Must have an effective Low Detail Mode if certain parts have performance issues
*6 to 9 stars in difficulty

While there were no specific requirements for it, extra emphasis was put on gameplay readability when judging entries.
