You keep everyone alive (if sometimes out of sight or trapped for a while), as you need three pets to finish the level. The Hold This level has a big hint for one of the aspects of the pet level, though it's not quite the same. I may have made a few parts too convoluted to figure out, though there are hints scattered on the floor in a few places to help...dreriohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07539035654016019940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-252386957366868878.post-39156778201098950822016-04-07T20:53:34.077+01:002016-04-07T20:53:34.077+01:00I couldn't reproduce this but I had a go at fi...I couldn't reproduce this but I had a go at fixing it in the latest update.

It is kind of "jerky" and a bit awkward though (processing too much information maybe?). The size is like the maximum zoom out in the editor.

If your level is fully surrounded by walls, you'll get the terrain background, otherwise you'll get no background. Which terrain you get depends on the size of your level.<br /><br />Grilled — It was George Foreman!

And, pick up and drop on the slider tiles because I figured the code would allow it as long as you are not pushing the arrow/WASD buttons. Timing though has to be EXACT centre or you will not pick up! And, drerio, what the heck are we supposed to do with the fish once we get into the impossible level? One thing that would be nice Rob if you could make the game smaller so we can see more of the hidden stuff that some gamers like to hide. Go back to Blackshift one and see the game size. Plus, I would like to be able to control the background (out of play area) dynamics. I like the fact that you can turn the enemies - nice touch! Anyways, I am making a slider pickup and drop level with plenty of saves. I am basing it on some levels I made in Netshift. I will await the next update before I put up another Netshift level with the on/off switch for the grille! Can we have the Mike Tyson video show when you get grilled?

Not that it matters because you die if they touch you, but in some situations it lookes like they give you a little push: if you have a key and there's a lock on the opposite side, it opens; if there's a pushable box, it moves. Doesn't really interfere with gameplay or anything, I just thought it's funny.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16256988435079356478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-252386957366868878.post-57025458823626973632016-04-05T20:28:38.886+01:002016-04-05T20:28:38.886+01:00Another bug that happens on 5x5 is when you save w...Another bug that happens on 5x5 is when you save while a gun was shooting on a "rebound" tile. I don't know how it happen exactly, but when you restart from that save, the gun will shoot 2 bullets instead of one. That's maybe the reason why the save don't work, as this bullet is not supposed to exist.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01390710841578037531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-252386957366868878.post-74760443305540557902016-04-05T20:03:38.211+01:002016-04-05T20:03:38.211+01:00Good feedback, thanks.

If you move off the start square, collect the gem while quickly moving off so the boxes drop, it crashes every time right after that on my system. I can send logs or whatever if it would be helpful.<br />2) My first win on the new 5x5 level vanished. It was a clean win, but the 'done' disappeared and the win didn't stick. The second run looks like it did stick.<br />3) Still having the apparently random problem of saves sometimes sticking and sometimes not when you die and end up back on the main screen for a level pit level. It seems to be consistent within one running of the software (if it sticks on one level, it'll stick on all; if it vanishes on one it vanishes on all), but on the next start it may behave the opposite. Can't find any pattern to it yet.... <br />Thanks again for all the fun!<br />dreriodreriohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07539035654016019940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-252386957366868878.post-59732207817607310082016-04-04T22:55:30.513+01:002016-04-04T22:55:30.513+01:00Aah!
