What Makes a Great Level?

I have some answers of making great levels like how Keeks and Lizzie do.

Use bugs - like, stinker in a box or sphere. It can be used for another element.

"fun-test" the level - When making a level and testing it, make sure it's fun by making movable things, etc. This is useful for kids levels.

Try to cram stuff in for small ones - like make a level that takes long and is small. It can make it interesting

You guys can add to this

Don't have too much useless space - try to stuff in as many puzzles as you can.

Don't make it so to win the level you have to do tricky timing.

If it is a kids level don't make it really hard.

Don't make it so you have to walk through long paths without puzzle.

The above is what not to do.

Double negative!

Why not? Tricky timing adds a challenge to the level.

When I used tricky timing no one liked it.
