An RP where you design your own video game level

Edit: In hindsight, my hasty elevator pitch was a bit overloaded in information while also not being very clear. In any case, the RP can be found here.

It contains all the details of the RP laid out a bit more concisely.

This sounds interesting! I really like the idea of each player making their own rooms that other players have to deal with. I have a question:

How flexible can we get with the puzzles or traps in our room? Could we have a room with carnival where we try to throw rings onto the heads of bottles from behind a rope?

Yes. Pretty much anything goes as long as the challenge itself is fairly presented (e.g. hidden elements need to be hinted at) and at least one viable solution is humanly doable. Were you to want the ring toss to be a part of your room, I would go on to ask about the specifics of the ring toss, such as how to allow players to make many attempts, if there is an intended method to circumvent the ring toss, or what you would like to happen if players try to mug the ring toss attendant for prizes.

The carnival music abruptly stops and small children begin to cry. Nearby parkgoers have shocked, horrified expressions as they back away from you. Parents will usher their children away while giving the player accusatory glares. Security arrives to escort the players off the premises and tell them that they won't be allowed back.

"Was it really worth it?" a law enforcement officer will later ask you as he takes your statement. The next day, you learn that the ring toss attendant has elected to press charges.

That wouldn't stop people from doing it, and evading legal repercussion would be as easy as leaving the room, but that's cool too.
