Weighted Options

Weighted options allow you to choose how likely a particular option's value is to be used in game generation. The higher a value is weighted, the more likely the option will be chosen. Think of them like entries in a raffle.

Choose the options you would like to play with! You may generate a single-player game from this page, or download an options file you can use to participate in a MultiWorld.

A list of all games you have generated can be found on the User Content page.

This distribution always adds up to 70, ignoring the Level Item Sum setting.

Size 14: Uses items worth 14 levels each. Size 10: Uses items worth 10 levels each. Size 7: Uses items worth 7 levels each. Size 5: Uses items worth 5 levels each. Size 2: Uses items worth 2 level eachs. Size 1: Uses individual levels.
