Cheeky backroute there Armani, but luckily it was a very easy fix. And yeah, I'm glad I dug up these last few official styles from Lemmings Tribes, as they have some real potential, certainly more than can be showcased by 10 terrain pieces. ;P

I talked about it on the discord, but I'll put here too for the record. Armani's solution to my R2 level is acceptable. It saves a skill, but honestly... I'm weighing up the idea of making Armani's solution the canonical one and officially removing that saved skill from the level.

@Armani

That's a backroute for my level! It seems kind of obvious now that you've pointed it out... :P

@Armani

While R1 is totally fine and open ended, R2 needs a fix as this is very unintended in quite a few parts, but lukily I still have 2 Object slots open for some OWWs. ;)

@Armani

R3: Ugh, that's a backroute, and I'm not sure how I missed that. This is what I get for not testing any of my levels extensively enough before the playing phase started :forehead: For V2, I have added a trap and shifted the terrain a bit. Let's see how the level holds up now!

Thanks for the compliments on the design, although honestly this is probably the laziest approach anyone can take in level designing, as everything in the Chalkboard tileset happens to be provided for me to be able to design the object very easily. As I'm very bad at art myself and can't draw for the life of me, naturally I would want to make the process of designing the object as easy as possible for myself, and the Chalkboard style happens to do a lot of it for me already :P

Also, notice the equations I've sprinkled around in the level, as well as the erroneous fact of Pi at the top, though that is a quote from a TV show :P

Your first replay of my R3 level was exactly the intended solution. The second replay is a backroute. Will fix that tomorrow.

@Armani - As you suspected, the R3 solution is a backroute - I will post an update later today with a fix to that pillar area.
