<Kacper> The level breakout is complete! I have completed 398 level in triage.I have a lot of catching up to do with the new levels. I will take you a lomg time to win all my levels! I also want to see levels from you. This is the greatest level breakout in Escape histroy.I made history!!!! I got my internet and you will not be bored again!!!!!! By the way,it's great in Poland the school is way diferent :-) Kacper Leszczynski |

<Gil Anthony> I finally got this @@#@@@ LEVEL! |
 |
<gary> This level is too tired for me!! |
 |
<Eric119> I think 2^15 is more than "a bit better" than 15!. 32768 versus 1307674368000. |

<Tom 7> Are you both 11? =) I think I was making silly little games when I was that old, but those were different days. I am not sure what to recommend to you if you want to start making games today. I have some experience with Flash, which--although it has a completely terrible programming language--has a lot of nice graphics stuff that make it pretty convenient for playing around with game ideas. I've also played some very good games made with Multimedia Fusion, though I have never used it. Also, Escape is an open source game, so if you learned C++ you could play around with it. It's pretty big, though, and who really wants to program in C++ these days? |

<Tom 7> There are actually 2 to the 15th power (32768) combinations, which is a bit better than 15 factorial. I will probably just open this one in the editor to solve it--noname's observation that a bot on a wire is a pixel-perfect way to hide some information was quite a brilliant subversion of one of Escape's core principles: that the puzzle should not be based on hidden information. I still consider this a bug and intend to add a key to let you see through bots, like there's a key to show the destination of panels and bot numbers and the contents of the alternate layer. |
 |
<Tom 7> I certainly would agree it's for the brain. (That's why my favorite kind of level is about outsmarting the player, not about bot shoving or guessing--neither one is very smart.) On the other hand, I think making levels is a big part of Escape, and it certainly uses the level creator's brain to try to make a level meeting a certain theme or criterion. Of course it's best when that level can also be fun for people to play, but if it's just a demonstration of something, that can be interesting too. (Maybe we ought to have a collection for non-levels that are primarily curiosities?) I think level contests like these are a nice way of maintaining Escape's emphasis on puzzle composition. |

<Gil Anthony> Now your talking, this is one mind messing level. Only one combination of 15! is the right one....very very very few to none people will solve this one.In fact you and Tom VII maybe the only two to complete it.If I Do It'll be sure luck! for now I'm clueless.A+ level in my book.GIL ANTHONY |
|
|
<Kacper> Yeah,I have thought of that.I did it 2 times: 1:For testing it 2:for creating a solution to send it At least it's a record. Don't worry,You'll have lots of fun pretty soon and there will be another level contest(I still don't have an idea for it)! P.S.Your Welcome Kacper Leszczynski |

<Gil Anthony> Now this is more like it!,So far I Haven't solved it.Tom VII would agree this game is for the brain.The 4X4 levels are one to three button games and leave very little reasoning to be done,except for the designer with the mental help of their computer.Those are good levels and quick.Just not much play in them. Gil Anthony |
 |
<Kacper> When I play gold block pushing puzzles,I usually have 1 left over.I'll keep on practice. |
|
|
<Kacper> Tom7,is it hard to make a computer game???My friend a I are planing to make a comeputer game just for fun. P.S.At the age of 11. Kacper Leszczynski |
 |
<Tom 7> Yeah, I was out of disk space (as usual). Boy, I can't wait to replace this machine! <John Lewis> For some reason, I can't upload another version of this level; the following message appears: fail (bug) or bad lev (or out of disk space) |
 |
<Gil Anthony> make more levels like this one...ok? : -) |
 |
<gary> Good work you make this map and is nice! |
 |
<Gil Anthony> yea that's a good level, I had to come back later to solve it.Thx Kacper. |
 |
<Tom 7> Thanks, I'm glad you're picking only the best ones. =) I look forward to playing your levels! |
 |
<Tom 7> No, it's definitely not unlimited! It can't be, since the level is of finite size and can only occupy a finite number of states. The longest solution length is exponential in the size of the level. <Kacper> The remote limit is UNLIMITED!!! I still don't have an idea for Level Contest #2 and I have less than 15 days!Hope I'll have an internet by then. |
|
|
<Kacper> I deleted the lameer ones and I will send about 40 levels.Mabye even more.You'll know when I'll get my internet.Oh yes you will!!! |
 |
<Kacper> On my computer I made a pretty good level.It's called " Rouge-Like-Me ".It's not modified or very similar.It's not easy.There are only 4 bots instead of 15 like in " Rouge-Like-Like ". Kacper Leszczynski |
 |
<Kacper> I still don't have an internet so I'll still use someone elses computer. P.S. When I get the internet the first thing I'll do is rate Blue Basis (Yes, I passed it on my computer). |
 |
<Kacper> ALL your levels were AMAZING!!! I am not a very good level maker! 3311 moves looksimpossible to make!!! CONGRATIOLATIONS WOWEI!!!! |
 |
<Kacper> 4616 MOVES?????? I wasn't even sure if 100 was posible!!! THIS is VERY SURPRISING!!!! CONGRATIOLATIONS ALOIS!!!!! |
