Plan your next Levelhead session
Our independent guide expands on Levelhead’s main pillars, offering observations that help creators and players refine their approach without promising hidden rewards. Use these exercises to compare design choices, evaluate multiplayer dynamics, and track performance on leaderboards.
01 / THE GUIDE
Benchmark Timing Analysis
Record your completion time on a campaign level, then replay using a different avatar. Note any timing differences and consider how level layout influences speed.
- Try playing with friends to see how cooperative strategies affect completion speed.
- Watch benchmark times to identify sections where you can improve efficiency.
02 / THE GUIDE
Switch Logic Experiment
Create a small test level that uses programmable switches. Activate them in various orders to see how player flow and difficulty change.
- Begin with a simple layout before adding complex switch networks.
- Test your level in single‑player mode to verify that all elements function as intended.
03 / THE GUIDE
Co‑op Role Division
When building a level with friends, assign one player to terrain design and another to enemy placement. Compare the workflow efficiency to solo creation.
- Coordinate tasks when building a level with friends to keep the workflow smooth.
- Use the shared screen to stay aware of hazards that affect all players.
04 / THE GUIDE
Follower Growth Tracking
Publish a simple level, then play it repeatedly over a day. Observe how play time and attempts affect follower counts, noting any patterns.
- Play your own published level to increase its visibility early on.
- Observe high‑scoring runs to learn strategies that may improve your own attempts.
05 / THE GUIDE
Cross‑Device Consistency Check
Back up a level, load it on a different device, and run through it. Record any visual or performance differences to ensure a consistent player experience.
- Back up important levels before making major edits to avoid losing work.
- Test a backed‑up level on another device to confirm visual consistency.
