How to Create a Good N Level

Step 14 Playing Through Levels

It's a good idea to test your level in debug mode, because this is the first test. It's almost guaranteed you'll find something you need to change as you play through.

Finally, the Gameplay
This is the other half of what is required to make a good N level. Your level has to be fun to play. As stated previously, N is a fairly frustrating game at times, but finally beating a level that has been annoying you makes it all worthwhile. Make sure that the satisfaction of beating your level is not outweighed by the frustration incurred while playing it.

Playing through a level will give you an idea of how difficult certain moves and jumps are to make, how difficult it is to avoid the enemies, and overall how much fun the level is to play. It is absolutely necessary that you are able to play through your level entirely without dying before you can consider it finished.

Well, not necessary, just easier. You can play the map FBF if you want to, but I don't recommend it.
