Probably only about half or less points than 2021 I would say, I can try to do a challenge calculation when I get home

Name of Challenge: Entomologist

Challenge Code: ento

Suggested Challenge Points: 45 (or maybe 35 / 40 ?)
1+2+1+7+7+4 --- map point reward (22)
x2 = 44 --- multiplier for limited cps with death potential (maybe it should be x1.5 instead, I'm not sure)
+1 --- bring up to a multiple of 5

Maps in the Challenge, sequentially:
Ant Hill
Whimsical
Bookworm
Buzzin'
Spider's Web
Bugs

Modifier: limited checkpoints: 3

I think it would be cool if there was an easier challenge with the bug-related parkour/dropper maps, that gives meaningful choices on where to use your cps. (Also thanks to jasmine for "giving" me a format to copy/paste ginch)

EDIT: Added Whimsical as per AverageIPA's suggestion o7

Whimsical would be a good edition to this

Whimsical would be a good edition to this

True! It doesn't seem like you can die on Whimsical (no fall damage), so maybe it would be best between Ant Hill and Bookworm?? (Also would I just edit the suggestion, or would I have to delete it and repost with Whimsical included?)

Oops I see! My bad

Oops I see! My bad

You're good! I think it would make a good addition, it would just have to be before the first real death potential (Bookworm).

Name: 178 Jumps
Challenge Code: 178
Points: 178
Maps in challenge: Lonesome -> E -> E3 -> Inanis -> Jump Jumble -> Patience -> Final-E

I don't know how feasible it is to force the player not to use the progress saving for Jump Jumble, but I'm open to suggestions to make this work as I think it would be such a funny challenge ngl

EDIT: Swapped Patience and Final-E

Progress saving is turned off for thrice no cps, so maybe something similar?

Name: Monomerase
Challenge Code: mono
Suggested Challenge Points: 250
Maps in the Challenge: Polymerase
Modifiers: No checkpoints

Not sure about the challenge points; this will be fairly difficult without checkpoints but in many of the middle l/d sections, you can land on a lower part so you won't have to restart completely. I don't think there's much death potential besides falling in the middle.

All Wired Up is 150 and I would argue this is definitely harder than All Wired Up. I would say 250-325 is a valid estimate
