Couple of bugs to report. 1. When pushing a boulder to crush a monster it goes right through and you die, and 2. Because the game is so much slower than the original, the time limits for the levels are too short.
Bug 1) I thought I’d squashed that (excuse the pun). Evidently I hadn’t :( Oh well, will look at fixing that.
Bug 2) Spent so much time making sure that the timer went down at pretty much the same rate as the BBC version, I didn’t actually sit back and realise I had slowed the game down ! That’s my fault. The game can actually run twice as fast, but I felt that was just too fast to be just a simple laid back puzzle game. I can double the speed if you think that would improve it (personally I like the speed as is), but I`ll certainly change the speed decrease relative to the game play.
Hi, yeah I tested the monster thing a few times and it never worked. Dropping rocks worked well, but not pushing. That made level D quite a challenge, but luckily the monsters aren’t as aggressive as in the original so are easier to avoid. Also that makes sense about the timer - all 6 levels online are still possible (just about!) but C and F are really tight!! I like the restyled graphics though! Very nice :)
