Despite taking by far the majority of my time, the optimization here is nothing to write home about. But the completion…my god, what a work of art. The amount of tiny little changes at every point in the level that determine whether or not you’re deadlocked down the road is ridiculous, and the construction is absurdly tight. Masterpiece TBH.
Neat solution, definitely requires a bit of *************************** to solve. :) Feels a little unplanned, but the solution that has arisen is at least nice.
Edit, over a year later: formerly 4.5 stars. This one gave me a lot of trouble when I first solved it, but coming back now I found it to go quite quickly. Still a very nice level. :)
Not a very difficult solution, and the level construction isn’t really doing it for me. It’s a little haphazard in some parts, and some of the others that feel more intentional are just not relevant at all. Not my favorite level.
What a bizarre solution. There’s only so many options here so brute forcing to find it doesn’t take too long, but the fact that that’s shorter is pretty crazy.
Really nice level. Always enjoyable when there’s no optimization needed, but the completion alone is actually quite tricky here. Fun maneuvering though.
