<Stephan> I've made minor changes to fix the cooks and problems from the previous version. It's a simple and symmetrical level. |

<mjn> (SPOILER) Cook? I didn't need the second electricity switch, although I would have if I'd done the right side before the yellow blocks. |

<mjn> (SPOILER) Yeah, there's a "real" level, too, which I know since I didn't even bother to zoom out until the very end (serves me right).
I believe I cooked it, though: you don't need to turn off the green blocks in order to get the spheres in position.
<Tom 7> (SPOILER) Added speedrun: 103 moves (old: 105).
Yeah speedrun ;)
<Tom 7> (SPOILER) Man, I am not sure what to make of this one. It seems like there's a genuine puzzle that might be possible, but it's easy to circumvent. Unfortunately, or perhaps fortunately, it's easy to see this alternate path by zooming out. |

<Tom 7> Is there a new version of this forthcoming? I've been avoiding it since it is apparently so cooked, but it looks like a nice level.. |

<OCTweak> It's easy only when you find out the solution! |

<Max> That is not the secret message!
<Tom 7> (SPOILER) Much easier, thanks!! ;)
<Tom 7> Scret message is "Wave Remix". ;)
<Max> Can you find the secret message? |

<Zoogie> It's actually kinda fun to watch the escapist do his little dance in the mystery solution. :) |

On further reflection, I think I cooked this one. Yes? |

<Tom 7> I have all the info on the server to make histograms, so if there ever get to be lots of ratings, I can generate those.
I think the ratings are mainly useful for the purposes of triage (which I ought to start doing, since the triage dir is getting very large!). But they'll probably stick around after the levels are moved to more permanent homes, since having more accurate ratings is better, and since I still think it's valuable to see the difference between a good easy level and a good hard level and a good loose level, etc. |

<Tom 7> Yeah, this definitely can happen if you use solution import. (I've had it happen to me, too.) I'm changing it now to automatically trim the solution that it finds so that it will be the right length. |

<Max> Well, all in all, I guess you should leave pre-solved ratings in. I do agree with Brian about the ratings histograms, eventually though... Just out of curiosity, are the ratings in place just to help determine an "official" level set, or do you plan on keeping them in the final version of Escape? |

<mjn> I looked at the player file and discovered that the mystery solution is identical to my solution for the level cc3f2354eeb9f8c2f2e1778ec3f83ad0, whichever that is. Could this be the solution-recovery at work?
<bpotetz> lol. You know your level is loose or easy if it's automatically solved by solutions to random other levels. |

Fun! My favorite type of campaign mode escape level is the recurrent kind where you get to revisit previous chambers, as long as its not done too deceitfully (ie unforseeable late-game events force you to start over many times and use trial & error). Sokoban Nightmare was like that too (not deceitful, I mean). Thematic. |
