Hindu Head ScratcherMicGorbachev Set in India, this is a puzzler style platformer. Hi all. I have published my first level - Hindu Head Scratcher. And I am glad its finished. I can start returning to normal sleep patterns. I enjoyed playing the Myst games and have tried to incorporate that sort of puzzle solving into this. I am still not sure if intense puzzle solving works in a platform game. I suppose it comes down to how it is done. So I have "watered down" the puzzles from what I originally had, just to keep the level moving along at a good pace. Any feedback is appreciated. Thanx.

- Sensor switch a bit jarring in a temple, perhaps replace with something else (a lever?). I dunno. Visible logic might be a thing in the level.. + Cool character + no typos + humor = win in my book. - Decorations/stickers look a bit randomly placed. +- Cool puzzle thing. I guess it has a limited lifespan if it gets stuck? Would play better if it was infinite, and you just pulled the switch to emit a new one. - Pistons blocks below your name. Camera shouldn't move half way through. Keep it zoomed out until player reaches the end of the obstacle. - All that way to push a switch just to walk back from the way you came?? + Cool how the trunks move as you walk through. - Would be nice if there was a break in the thin layer fence on the left. I jumped and then had to go back over the elephants. - The elephants starts moving his truck because you dragged over a box? I would make the box look more like a food. A peanut or something? - The tree stickering has nice colours, but tidy it up. (tops of branches are green) - Layer switching after the elevator (you run up the frotn layer wall). Manually changing layers is not fun, breaks the flow imo. But this is a personal preference. - Layer switching again (jumping from first furnace to second sponge). + Nice bubble placement on the sponge elevator after the cart. - Corner edit the cut out triangles in the rocks/bridge section to make it more natural looking. + Nice character/puzzle/platforming (dude with arms). - Cutscene magic mouth stopping bubble combo. Another enjoyable level. Only got 10k in points though (half of top scorers), hope I didn't miss any sections. Creator heart for you. EDIT: Good man. You should add F4F in the title (edit op, then "go advanced") if you have the time, as your levels deserve more attention.

Again, thanks for giving such a detailed review Midnight Heist. I have made most of your recommendations, and once the server is back up and running, I will republish.
