He said that backroute in Roundabout is fine, since the level was suppose to be easy. I'm still playing mobius1. I was busy with other games. According to my solution in "Jacob's Ladder", the level has five Bashers, but you only need two of them and it was a test of trying to pay attention to the Lemmings on both sides. It was fun, even though it hurt my arms, because I wasn't using the rewind feature and no pausing to see which Lemming is the climber.

Jacob's Ladder is pretty much busted. I attempted numerous fixes to it months ago when I first made it but nothing worked and I eventually gave up. I needs some major changes to ensure the intended solution but I don't really feel like doing that at the moment. I might someday.

I guess I'll play the PSP levels now. They can't be too hard since they weren't user made. 

I can review some of Dovelems, I've played a little of it. [Actually I found (I think) a backroute in one already  ]

sorry for neglecting to review a level I planed on. I got into other things and didn't have time to play. (Of course at any time anybody else inclined could have reviewed as well...)

Rrrrrr! You pizza-centerd guys didn't want to name the tasty steak from the bum shop?

2nd place still very good, congrats to möbius for doing really great on this one, and thanks to the host!

since the bum shop question comes after the food question; I wouldn’t have thought of that unless I went back to think about it after the bum question. After mentioning pizza earlier I thought for sure everybody would think of pizza.

I’m really surprised everybody said yes on the breakfast thing. And ccexplore even chooses “yes” just for the feud. I thought the general consensus is most people don’t eat breakfast (even though it is very good for you and is the most important of the day). Maybe that’s only a thing in my area. I know America, especially the south is more unhealthy on average than many other countries around the world.

I'm just curious how did the trend of having 10 levels in your set get started?

also; any Christmas levels are not custlem right?

-----------------------
Okay… I don’t know if this is what you’re looking for or not but here are some things that I would think make editing easier;

1- first of all; have selectable hotkeys for everything/everything important anyway. So that every user can set his/her own personal hotkeys

2- have a specific hotkeys or buttons to add terrain/ object/ steel respectively.
-every time you add terrain, the previous selected terrain gets added instead of the first one on the list.
3- undo/redo buttons!

4- if possible, it might be nice to have a feature that automatically adds correctly sized steel to the ‘steel-like terrain’ when it gets added.

and to somehow add steel-like-terrain to the bubble set. I think I could take the steel pieces in rock [for example] and just adjust their color slightly to make it look more suited.

the only level with a backroute was 2.  (tears of joy  )

I updated it, now should work better. At least digging into the top of that pole isn't possible anymore.
Thanks for playing.

-unrelated note- Luis found another backroute to going down, from my second level pack so I may be updating that at some time.

square f4 on a chessboard. I'm ~99% sure the "house" is a chessboard but not sure what the rivers and stuff are about.


So that puzzle contest I was planning is completed and actually started now, you can try it out at http://ispuzzlecontest4.proboards.com/index.cgi if you want to give it a whirl.

you're right!

the house is indeed a chessboard. All you need to do is follow the "cubits" and clues of walking around the chessboard.. the alters are rooks, the "Preist" s the bishop.
 The water is just a diversion. I actually got this entire thing from something I saw in the bible once.  I really liked the sound of it so I adapted it into a puzzle.

since it seems you solved it pretty quickly how do you think I could make it tougher?

-----
as my other puzzle.... it may be somewhat unfair. I'm not sure, I'll have to take another good look at it.

I can't log into the puzzle website for some reason. I'll just try making a new account. I looked at the first puzzle but haven't worked on it hard yet. Do you mind if I post this one and other puzzles like it on your forum?

hey, thank you for posting with ideas

I like the turner idea in a 2D game (1-way blocker). Hadn’t thought of that.

Some of the ideas for skills you mentioned have already been done in other games, like Lix for one. (wrapping around) and skills like batter.
Personally I dislike having more than 8 skills at a time, but I still like hearing ideas.

-------

I forgot to read your post, Clam. I like the idea of having challenge specific related options.
For the single lemming challenge, this could be easily applied by having only 1 lemming come from the entrance and having all the rest be “pre-placed Lemmings; uncontrollable lemmings”.
1-skill per lemming could be done with having lemmings of a different color or numbers on them. With this you could even have lemmings that can be only assigned a certain number of skills. They have a counter above them, and when that runs out they can no longer be assigned skills. Or lemmings that can only be assigned skills facing a certain direction.

I think we should have a separate thread for discussion of multiplayer; (that is if any good amount of discussion ever results here)
