Fine. I won't put elevators in the middle of a map. Point taken Smile

Nice map! It's real fun to play.

The second energy pellet puzzle on Advanced is a little tricky though... I solved it by luck Very Happy

In the same room on advanced, I couldn't get the camera destroyed by it's fizzler in the middle of the puzzle. (so not the one on the end)

Very fun to play and I'm looking forward for more PMK's Very Happy

Thanks to everyone for the comments.

I will release a v1.1 soon with the following changes:

1. Adjust the fizzlers to include the cameras and fix any other fizzler problems I can spot.

2. Remove the middle elevator so the map is one continuous chamber (challenge targets will be adjusted to account for the change in layout)

and 3. Adjust the second energy pellet puzzle on advanced so that it can be solved with less luck but with a similar solution.

Please let us know if I should include changes 2 and 3 or if you'd rather not see those changes as you've already completed the map/challenges

At the second orb puzzle, with all the fizzlers, I decided to jump into the catcher to find out what would happen.

I went right in.

Don't forget to fix this.

I just played through version 1.1. Naturally, it's excellent; the only real difference I noticed was the removal of the elevator, which I like. I'm in favor of the "one map, one test chamber" idea, because it just seems to flow better. I haven't tried the new advanced map yet. As far as I'm concerned, it was fine how it was, but making it a bit simpler wouldn't hurt.

Keep up the great work.

the only major change to the advanced level is a slightly redesigned room for the second orb puzzle. Its now got a new repeatable solution that doesnt rely on luck.
