I am working on multiple levels right now, but the one I am having the best time with is a puzzle level based on getting to and grabbing a cookie. There are multiple puzzles, starting out simple, and eventually getting progressively difficult. So far things are going smoothly, but I have to ask some questions: Should I post a demo version of the level? It may be a little while before the puzzles are complete, and then I'll do additional detail/bug fixing, which would take a while longer. Also, if I do post a demo, how many of the puzzles should I put into it? I was think maybe the first three or four, but I would like opinions, as I don't want to spoil the level if it doesn't end up much longer (the thermometer might become a problem), but I don't want it to be too short. All feedback is appreciated.

Personally, i'd only post a demo if you think A) Its going to gather more interest or B) You think it would be a good way to judge peoples reactions to the level. If you're going to publish a demo, be sure to give the player enough to get the hang of the concept, and maybe leave them wanting more. The problem with a lot of puzzle levels is taht the thermo monster ends up eating up a lot of the ideas, so you may wish to keep them all secret until your release either way, look forward to it.

Well, thanks for the feedback. I'm usually okay at conserving the thermometer space, but it's half full, and there's not as much as I'd like in the level for a halfway point. I don't know if I'll post a demo, but if the actual level goes well, I may make a part two. Here's hoping no problems occur! I'll notify you when I publish it.
