<N7DOT> 'Did I mod something? Maybe!' uploaded by N7DOT: If you thought that last mod was pretty nice, then I've got some good news and bad news, cause this mod's feeling pretty mean :) |

<N7DOT> (SPOILER) Nah, no need to tell me, I've figured it out now. All of the solutions seem quite different to me, so I think I'll be keeping this one for now. <mark> (SPOILER) Added speedrun: 135 moves (old: 223). A fun mod been playing all evening, my solution or the speedrun to my mod is no good in this mod. I have a very long and difficult solution that will give a big hint to my mod. If you want I can post it to this for you just let me know. <N7DOT> (SPOILER) me not noticing that is kinda ironic given the name of the leve, now that I think about it :p I have no idea how similar the two mods are currently, but I suspect mine is probably easier since I currently don't know how to beat mark's version. <N7DOT> I just realized mark already did a mod of this one, oops! I'm going to go compare this against that one to see whether I should keep this one. <N7DOT> 'I've missed nothing' uploaded by N7DOT: Inspired by mark's frequent use of old levels as backbones for new ones, I decided to go looking through old levels myself to see if I could find one that I could use to do the same. This is the result of that endeavor :) |
 |
<N7DOT> (SPOILER) Added speedrun: 399 moves (old: 485). I took a look at that and have had no luck either. I'm not sure if it's possible, but if it is then I'd have to agree on it being an impressive solution. In the meantime, here's the promised speedrun I mentioned. <mark> (SPOILER) Hi N7 good to see you back,I have solutions that go both ways and use both ways to wake door. In the origanal pop1 you will see 2 rows of 8 green dots. I had to remove the right ones to make this possible for me.If your solution could put them back or you could mod it and solve.That would be a stinker. <N7DOT> (SPOILER) Whaaaaat? That's how you woke the door? I didn't think that way was even feasible and did it a different way instead. I also apparently did the start very differently, going down first instead of over the top. Not sure if I should just post my record (currently 399) or to make a pop1.3 in response, since I don't think it's really gonna be harder, and it might be more repetitive. |

<N7DOT> Nice puzzle here. One thing I noticed when playing is that format of the original is oddly similar to the quarantined level "Bridge Out Redux" :P Glad I decided to check back in here to see if there'd been any new things going on, looks like its been (relatively) active around here recently :) |

<noname> (SPOILER) Added speedrun: 149 moves (old: 175). <mark> (SPOILER) Added solution "Original Solve": Forgot to uncheck speedrun box. <mark> (SPOILER) (note: speedrun of 310 moves didn't break record; not added) This was my first solve before mod. Slightly different start to mission impossible start, different leaf pattern same ending. RIP mission impossible. <mark> (SPOILER) Added solution "Another way": Did not use green block. |

<mark> Moved to graveyard: Not really needed does not force my solution. noname you can claim your brilliant speedrun I wont take it. I am going to post my solution to your level. Ps I have found another one as well. |

<noname> (SPOILER) When I first played this, I did not have a good idea what was going on with this level, even though I have tried Klotski before. I just had no idea how the 20 panel area corresponds to the play area, and no idea how the play area corresponds to a Klotski game. I only got the idea after reading the description at the author's webpage, but then the interface started to feel intuitive to me. I suppose the size restriction means that the interface is as good as it can be, so I guess I should not complain. When I first tried Klotski, it took me a lot of effort to solve the Red Donkey, and I decided it's too time and energy consumming to invest into the game, so I stopped there. When this Escape version came out, I again was able to solve Red Donkey, but I gave up on the Trail (after lots of tries), and decided to look at the solution given by a link at the author's website. So I guess I'm not in a good position to judge the difficulty of both levels. The solution website also contains the number of positions reachable from the start position, and as the number seems quite small in terms of computer brute force, I wrote a program to find the Escape-optimal solution for both Red Donkey and Trail. As these levels are relatively young on Escape, I think I would wait until they're older before releasing the solution. Anyway, I guess I should be grateful that one can play Klotski at all with relatively intuitive controls as an Escape level, for the author must have taken lots of effort to make this happen. Thank you, Matt. |

<noname> (SPOILER) While I first solved this level by hand, it is just too tempting to use a computer program to solve this: only 4 movable objects! - which means the total state space is small enough for a computer to brute force. Since this level is quite young, I'll hold back the computer-found optimal solution until this is older, so that other players may have a chance to find it (perhaps by hand?) |

<noname> (SPOILER) Added speedrun: 149 moves (old: 292). Nice level. <mark> 'Bates' Motel Mission Impossible' uploaded by mark. |

<mark> (SPOILER) Added speedrun: 175 moves (old: 180). I did not solve it this way, speedrun only came after seeing your solution. So I will throw a mod back your way. Ps the level was great thanks. |
