No laughing here. I'm finding these levels tricky. 2off so far here.
Edit: one month later. At last I've got it. I just kept on pushing trying to find different paths to pursue. Great first level.
Reach, thx! I was trying sooo hard. But new and new paths appeared, and I wanted a certain path to be the shortest.
I will have to change something, cause I just found there are TWO totally different 26 paths (and before that, there were 3 of them, and even one shorter ...). Making levels is quite a different skill to solving them, indeed.
Overall a great first level. I look forward to many more.
As a critique, I think you could improve this level by using space better. Try making false paths look more alluring to a player :)
