      Very nice first level that was fairly obscure and didn't require any tricks albeit the over the stairs momentum move could be classified as one. I dropped a star for two reasons, 1. the mechanism often blocked B from proceeding and 2. the high ball rested on a flat surface and was still spinning as R walked over causing R to become unstable. A wedge under all R balls is highly recommended to prevent this. Good level - thanks for sharing.

      Hi & welcome...very FUN first level,nice logic behind to be the first one...I drop a star because I had @Meko Guy same issue with the mech that blocked B path(On my mobile it worked half the time, it is a very low percentage ... we could say that this step is unstable)...Anyway,good job ,is your first one,you'll learn:rolleyes:... Thanks for sharing @Patrick Bechamel ;)

      very promising debut and its great to see ambitious levels. I liked the wee shake to move R to the fence.

      — Is this your first level? I'm not convinced :joy: Good level.
      The budgeable blocks the way after being pushed out of the gamespace. The previous comments prove that the problem is consistent across different devices. However, as you receive feedback from different players you can learn how to fix and improve the level design.

      I saw your comment on a level with tricks and I can say that you don't like them. I recommend you to learn some of these tricks.

      Welcome to the madhouse. I'll have to agree with everyone else - some parts are just a little too hidden for convenience (that mover next to where B starts, for example), and it is far too easy for B to fall off the level; most players don't like using the white space as part of the play area. Easy enough to see how it's supposed to be done, but I didn't bother finishing it.
      I'll agree with @Meko Guy on something: when you drop a ball and have R walk over it, use a wedge under the ball instead of a flat block; that stops the ball from spinning. On some devices R can walk over a ball on a flat surface, but on others it is unstable, so a wedge should be used for any ball that R needs to walk on. B can usually walk across a ball on a flat surface, but again, a wedge is recommended.
      Interesting design, though, and an interesting finish... though the motor isn't actually needed for any of the bots to hit the win. Keep building, and if you don't know, ask - we're pretty friendly around here.

      ...
      beautiful design
      and creative way to put those
      all the mechanism and paths around
      yggdrasil tree...

      even if there is a shortcut,
      because this is your first level,
      4 stars + 1 for ur encouragement.
      thanks for sharing.
    • Patrick Bechamel
      @Ray Aznable Thank you for your review. :thumbsup:
      As a newbie, I appreciate the warnings on potential shortcuts but I've already spent time and effort and money just to publish the level and I won't regret not adding a fixed rail or slider to prevent a random tripping here or there. :)
      I am friendly. :) Sorry if I sound pretty impolite.

      i forgot to add more sentence in my review,
      "hopefully this information might help you
      to prevent this shortcut in your next level"


      I dont expect you nor commanding you
      to delete your level...
      its ur level, im just your neighboor in this forum,
      who innitiatively sharing this extra info,
      cuz I see ur potential as a good level maker.
      (notice, i set the color of my sentence in pink)

      I understand that, my internet datas also limited.
    • Patrick Bechamel
      @Ray Aznable Thank you for your support. Sorry if I read your intentions the wrong way because English is not my native language. But tripping here or there is not good way to solve a level that was designed without tricks.
      You can send me a message if you want to discuss it in private so that we can't send unnecessary notifications to other reviewers. :)

      You already caused me to feel bad about my level but I don't want to delete it. $$$ :thumbsup:
