Level 7 should be possible to finish, just try harder!


can ya gimi a clue? :) i suppose nobody has been to final lvl right?

PS: this message will is not abt quote but i dun wan to mess up creating 2 comments

kryptosuper: i saved replay 1 time and i cant save 2nd.. can i send screenshot? i dun edit screenshot trust me kita ^^

@ kryptosuper

This game is makable... i have solutions for ALL levels and more colours than this game wants to have XD. Just try harder.

I can only suggest you to try to find the "system" of this, use maths. I would normally give you a hint now but i dont know if Kitabatake agree that.

tell me secretly :D :D :grin::grin::thumbs_up::thumbs_up::thumbs_up::thumbs_up:

I can believe that. Most people that play this custom don't have enough patience, skill and determination so they leave

then only left superboyboy2 and me we tried solve lv 7 but i had to go so i cant finish it i reached lv 8 now ^^ btw i saw 1 error or maybe glitch, i run into portal but i dint get in but i tried 4th time then i got in i dunno why..
Hmmh a weird glitch indeed. I have never seen that happen myself.

Oh and the game is Updated to 1.04 version!
filesize is smaller and now the save/load glitch has been removed
...by making saving and loading impossible.


Oh and a couple of hints:
Level 1: Run it in a H shape
Level 2: Run it in a + shape several times

There we go, after forgetting to save the replay, I tried again with the knowledge I got from the first one. It still took me an hour to beat a second time though :p

Yep it is an interesting game, but It seems my 8th grade math was smart enough to figure it out. Actually the first few levels were harder then the rest of the game. It got easier as I went on. And it got really easy when I figure out you only had to repeat a few moves for each level, just the amount of each move changed with level. However, it was fun ^_^ I guess I have a brain :D

Wooooooo!

I did this with a friend and we beat all 10 levels.

I got through the first couple of levels with my friend the first time we played, but my friend couldn't see the colors, so we decided to remake when we reached level 6. So the replay attached is our second game, and we did the H and + hints as a shortcut to get back to where we left off. Spent a couple hours on this. Great puzzle.

IT's UNBELIEVEABLE! i passed all lvls and i saved the replay. the next morning when i opened the com i thought 'WTF' my com is being formatted. i know u wouldn't believe cuz its ridiculous but its true.I think my bro did the formatting last night when he came from his other house.well its ok anyway nice game anyway its my luck... u can say i'm a liar or anything but this is the truth u dun believe it i dun force u to believe it.


Expected thoughts from people "i think he's crazy or i think he gone nuts."

Anyway kitabatake, nice puzzle u got there.... make harder one :D

Great game! As I went on, I began to develop an algorithm that I realized could be used on every level, so the last few levels were a breeze for me! Although you probably don't want to spend time watching my replay, if you catch my drift. Overall 5/5. Fantastic!

Edit: Shitz /me tries to hides his post but gets spotted
 
I just beat the game. The first few levels were hardest. Then I started to count ;)

Congratulations and +rep!

Just made this account to say I beat it...
First time playing, I had to figure every thing out so I was stopped at level 8 but basically got to figure out the pattern.
The second time I played, I beat it.
I just used algorithm method and it wasn't too difficult.
Beat it in 21 minutes.
I made some little mistakes but now I think I could beat it under 15 minutes now.

I reached lvl 6 and can't go any further, although my friend passed it while I was afk :D
Just keep on trying!

Congratulations and +rep!

Hmm... maybe I should start making a highscore list...
 
The highscores are now listed on the map details and will be updated whenever I receive another replay.


Highscores (since v1.06)
Kill3rbeast8min 1sec
McNegro21min 49sec
- -
I will probably include the highscores in the actual map once I have at least 3 scores to display...

(Note: Only replays from map version 1.06 and up are qualified for the highscore listing)




Edit: Kill3rbeast has beaten the puzzle in 8 minutes and 1 second!

Congratulations and +rep for claiming the first position!

Nice puzzle like it alot, like your other maps :)
5/5
 
Wohoo I've beaten your puzzle :grin:

Oh damn. How did I not see your post earlier?
I can't watch the replay because it is made with the old version of wc3

Anyway, +rep and congratulations!
(I can't add you to the highscore list because I can't see the time from the replay)

The map is now open source for anyone to edit and improve!

Wow, I found an intriguing solution for level 2. Run diagonally from bottom left to top right across the squa- circles, then the top left, middle, and bottom right will all be green. From that point all you have to do is step twice on the bottom left and top right circles and POOF you're done.

I made this account just to post i eat the crap out off your game : ) . I think my time was 8:31 i hope i find my way to the records with it : ).

Ow yeah, if you want a decent time it's best to think with maths. It's also usefull to use symmetrical solutions, you'll find it alot easier and you can still solve everything (as I've proven).

Good luck everyone.

The first 2 levels are pretty easy, 3rd level is average difficulty, 4th level is hard, 5th level is very hard etc.. exponentially increasing difficulty level.

You must make all circles GREEN in order to pass the level

Have fun!


Oh and if you have played Aeroblyctos' campaign, you might have already seen the 3 first levels of this puzzle...

You really love Puzzle you even did it in The Chosen Ones
And I love it!!!:mwahaha::mwahaha:
