Agh, I was going to fix that and I forgot.

If any of you want to fix it, go ahead, otherwise, I probably <s>won't</s> will.

Also, there isn't an empty board that just has the engine and the stick men, so I accidently erased it and now I have to unzip all over again. =(

I may do something...If I feel like it.

I'll just make a few hard-ass levels and laugh at the people who can't solve them! :agh:

I'll try and get something done soon, however I am not promising anything.

Stak, would it be alright if I made a few levels with an intertwining story line and an alteration of the engine for an end boss?

ANNOUNCEMENT!

Disregard whatever level guidelines I had in the file. Do whatever the hell you want to with your levels. Just <a href="mailto:stakremix@hotmail.com">send 'em to me</a> when you're done.

i'm almost done. but altering the engine is too hard, without messing things up.

I may start eventually...

Just give me a due date and I'll make a few the day before...

Well, I just got around to downloading it (I'm a busy man =() and let me tell you, this concept is (for lack of a better term) fucking awesome.

Seriously, I actually had fun going through the demo level, which I can rarely say as ZZT engines are concerned. When I get around to it I am so making a level.

Stak this will rock <3

Other than completely agreeing with everything Moose said, I would like to mention that is is a little bit hard to make a level, well, difficult.

Homz: yeah, unless you restrain one of the Stick Dudes, it's hard to make a difficult level... you could, say, put the blue (building) one in a cell by hisself, then put the green (smashing) one in a yellow box, while leaving the red one to fend for himself. Possibilities include having to kill enemies to open doors/activate things to release the other two, and getting to the Vortex could require the talents of all three.

I included, in one board only accessible by the editor, a basic switch object; it (along with the Vortex Button) can be activated not only by placing something (a Stick Dude, a brick, etc) on top of it, but also by shooting it, as well.

Moose: THX <3

Yes, the level I've started designing involves freeing two of the three dudes.

I must say, Stak, you've done an amazing job. I really do love this game.

This game is wicked. But I think it would be even COOLER if touching the switch object alternated between the three rather than producing a menu.

But it's 2 late now!

oof: Originally, the "Switch Stick Dude" button was going to alternate between them, but I decided against it and made it open a menu instead. Now, it also acts like a pause menu, so if you have to pee in the middle of a game, you can, n'stuff.

Okay, I was just lazy, so eh.
