I'm kind of surprised that "Die Doppelgänger" is proving to be so difficult, or at least not backrouted to oblivion by IchiTolot!  Either that or because it's a Rule 3 level, people are leaving it until last. Granted, as a designer, one may think their level is easy when it's really not and vice versa.

Here you go! I was trying to solve some of the levels I hadn't completed yet first. Looks like some more back routes :P.

Edit: Solved Mystic Mines finally! woot! I was pretty close I just needed to make a small adjustment :thumbsup:

Too bad it was a backroute. V3 incoming :)

I Demand A Builder done! I procrastinated this one a bunch because I figured it was going to be a tedious solution, but it ended up being a great level. Nice job :thumbsup:!

Finished all my recordings of my initial blind playthrough of all levels :thumbsup:

Overall I solved 8/12 levels (12 because I'n not counting my own levels), which isn't too bad for a first-time blind playthough.

Life is going to get a bit busy soon, so I'm going to take a small break before moving on to the bonus content. I will also be solving the contest levels I couldn't solve or levels that got updated off-screen from now on until I finally get the intended solutions, and then I'll show them on-screen for all viewers all at once :)

Rule 3 Part 1 (Arty's level and attempts on Crane's level)
Rule 3 Part 2 (Flopsy's level)

"Adios Amiga!" (click to show/hide)

"Die Doppelgaenger" (click to show/hide)


Once again, thanks to all designers that participated and made this another enjoyable experience :thumbsup:

I should be more careful about what I wish for... despite my best attempts, Die Doppelgänger keeps getting broken.  As for bulletride's solution of Cloning Vats... I think for the first time ever in history, I'm going to have to lock the release rate! (found a cleaner patch!)

If there's any clue for the intended solution... more of the upper part of the level is meant to be used!

Maybe this is finally intended for Crane's R3 ???

YAY! Finally! That is the intended solution, IchoTolot!  I hope I can consider this level patched now - sorry to put you through so much testing!  I just hope the solution isn't blatantly obvious or the level messy though.

Not all backroutes are yet ironed out, it seems! V11 is now up.

I haven't been able to solve IchoTolot's rule 1 level. I kind of know what to do, but can't seem to efficiently get the Floater up to where the Climber starts. I wonder if I'm missing something obvious.

I've got a solution for Whiplash (R1L2).  Haven't had much luck with the others yet.

Here is a solution to the latest version of "Mystic Cave Lemmings".

Feels intended but you never know :8():

I also have another solution to the latest version of "Whiplash".

Here is an attempt replay for IchoTolot's Rule 1 level. Hopefully I'm on the right track... or maybe I'm still far, far away?? :P
