Contest Rules
Follow any theme-specific requirements listed above, in addition to:
- One submission per player. You may replace or update your submission until the deadline.
- Collaborations of up to 3 builders are allowed. A collaboration counts as the submission for every listed builder.
- Levels MUST be created during the current contest period. Existing or previously published levels cannot be submitted.
- Levels MUST have a completion time between 25 and 60 seconds when driven at a reasonable pace along the intended route. Levels outside this range will be disqualified.
- Levels MUST contain at least 3 checkpoints. Add additional checkpoints where necessary to prevent shortcuts or make the intended route clear.
- The intended route MUST be clear, consistent and reasonably raceable. No hidden routes, hidden linked checkpoints, misleading/risky finishes or other elements that make progression unnecessarily difficult to understand.
- Levels may contain a maximum of 3,000 blocks.
- Logic 2.0 is allowed and encouraged! You may freely use logic blocks, moving blocks, gates, triggers, timers and other Logic 2.0 mechanics.
- Random/RNG logic blocks are NOT allowed. These are the Logic 2.0 blocks identified by a cheese icon or dice icon in-game. Levels using any cheese/random blocks will be disqualified, as Level Contest tracks must behave consistently between attempts.
Building for Super League
Every Level Contest submission has a chance of being selected by the community as one of the 14 levels raced in the monthly Zeepkist Super League tournament.
When building, aim for a level that players across a wide range of skill levels can understand and complete. The challenge should come from finding better lines, carrying more speed and improving your time, rather than simply trying to reach the finish.
Try to keep the level consistent between runs. Avoid unreliable physics, overly precise mandatory tricks or obstacles where timing outside the player's control can decide whether a run succeeds.
Checkpoints should make the route clear and prevent major unintended shortcuts without getting in the way of the racing. Add extra checkpoints where they provide useful split times or stop obvious cuts.
A good Super League level should be accessible to finish, while leaving plenty of room for racers to optimise their time.
These are guidelines, not additional submission rules. Creative, unusual and experimental levels are encouraged!

How to Submit
- Prefix the Workshop level name with "ZSL - ". (e.g "ZSL - Awesome Level Name")
- Upload your finished level to the Zeepkist Steam Workshop.
- Submit your Workshop link through the ZeepCentraal Level Submissions page before the deadline. ZeepCentraal uses Steam Single Sign-On, so no separate account registration is required.
- Only levels submitted through ZeepCentraal will be accepted. Links posted in the comments of this announcement will not be entered into the contest.
Submit your level on ZeepCentraal
Collaborating with other builders
If you are collaborating with other builders, make sure every contributor is listed when submitting your level. You can add up to 2 additional builders per submission when submitting your level on ZeepCentraal.
Only builders listed on the submission are eligible to receive cosmetic prizes if the level wins a community award for Best Layout or Best Decoration.
Updating your submission
Your submission is not final until the deadline. You can update or replace it at any point while submissions are open.
Updating your existing Steam Workshop item will automatically update the level associated with your submission. It may take up to 30 minutes to be reflected.
If you want to submit a different Workshop level instead, retract your current submission and submit the replacement through the ZeepCentraal submissions page.
Community Vote & Super League
Once building ends, the community will have one week to vote for their favourite eligible submissions.
The 14 selected levels will then be published as the official Super League playlist, giving racers one week to practice before the ZSL tournament.
There are no prizes for having your level selected for Super League. Voting for the Level Contest Best Decoration and Best Track Layout awards is separate and does not affect which levels are selected for Super League.
Join the Official Zeepkist Discord to get notified when community voting starts and stay up-to-date with playlist and tournament announcements.
Prizes
The community will also vote separately for their favourite levels in two Level Contest categories:
- Creators of the 4 best decorated levels
- Creators of the 4 best track layout levels
Each winner will receive both exclusive Season 7-8 Level Contest Soapbox cosmetics:
- Black F-9000 Soapbox with Yellow Accent
- Yellow F-9000 Soapbox with Black Accent
Winners who are members of the Official Zeepkist Discord will also receive 6,000 Discord Chat XP.
Rewards will be distributed in a future Zeepkist update.
