<wowei> Okay there are a lot of games, where there is the most fun in getting surprised because of some hidden information or where there is the main challenge in surviving random sceneries.

Personally I like Escape, just because it is _not_ one these, and thanks goodness, Tom7 didn't put in a timer or anything similar.

But hell, sometimes it is fun trying to hide something in here. And there have been many many approaches trying to do so. Some smart ones others not so much.

Look f.e. at noname's "Guesswork" (lev784), it is smart and fun and only solvable by using the editor. And now imagine other approaches, where there are a handful of 'good' panels surrounded with hundreds of 'wrong' ones and then judge for yourself!

Now here: Rotating the colours for a few tiles in a more or less randomly order sure can be fun, but imho the fun disappears all of a sudden, when there are dozens of them which feels almost like many hundreds.

<wowei> Carlin, why are you feeling attacked, when I'm telling you reasons, I don't like this level at all. I was hoping to see some more interesting and logical challenging levels by you again. And later on I was glad I could.

You've built many dozens of levels now. Some were really nice and others were boring only. And as always - and it already has been pointed out here so many times: It is a matter of taste only, some like this and others that.

Disrespect? Intolerance? Arrogance? Do you even know, what you are blubbering about? Please don't worry, I'll probably never think you have any potential at all to be a wise person.

hooray for hugbots v.2

<Carlin> Unitentionally to offend, but your comment is a fine candidate to be the worst comment ever. Maybe the more ridicule so far. Randomnes and tries of hiding the information dont subistitute a clear and nice concept, but it increases more options of possibilities of the Escape levels. You solved that in 2970 movements, and I solved in 2545 movements. That because I am not interested im participating in the speedroom in my own levels, for its leave then more competitive for the other users. I will play this level again, yes. Me not me stress and I not lose the patience whith great challenges, after all is the objective of games of that gender.
Will you be wiser in yours comments of here forward? I wait that yes.
I am of the good, and with good intentions. My objective is to collaborate creating levels and leave then available to the users of the Escape.
I request that you have more patience and tolerance with me. I will improve and I will create better levels with the time. I consider that a pastime.
Have more respect for me, and gratitude for the levels that you liked and played.
I want everything of good to you.

<Delvin> No. Wowei (and mm!) aren't alone. There's a recurring theme in many of your levels. More tedious than it needs to be. I get bored at this after arranging one corner. The same point could've been made with less than half the space used. As it is, this becomes a bit of a grind...
<Carlin> Wolwei, at first me thought that you seemed to have the potential to be a wise person, but I felt in your comment a certain disrespect, intolerance, arrogance, precipitation and ingratitude. Characteristics of who decided to follow the way of fools.
I hope you begin behaving as wise person.

God blessing you, and that you are happy.

(Difficulty: 2.0 Style: 1.6)
<Sulnudu> (SPOILER) Cook: Still possible to move directly from the bottom row to the top row, although you now have to shuffle a few stones in the corridors. No Towers of Hanoi operations needed at all, though.

<radiant> This is the first time I've found the "I" key to be useful in game.
<John Lewis> (SPOILER) Added speedrun: 2418 moves (old: 2880).
It's great to be back!

Find a set of 24 paths that combine to connect each of the non-trap tiles to its mate, without using any square more than once. When you're in the grid, the current tile's mate will be replaced by a teleport.

It turns out the original solution I had to this was considered a cook, leaving 12 squares untouched. A fixed version is available upstream, so I'll obligingly follow.

Find a set of 23 paths that combine to connect each tile (except traps and holes) to its mate without entering any square more than once. The teleport in the grid represents your next destination at any given time.
