Recommendations Levels good enough to tweak

It was great to see a new level by @Fendi today. Recently someone mentioned that another nice level of his, Wile, is no longer winnable because of the updates to mekorama. So I tried to update it, then started having ideas. Fendi is perhaps my favorite level builder, so I hope the changes are up to his high standards.

A while back I noticed a great looking little village in Island of Memory, by (fittingly enough) @Great. It inspired an idea for a little mekorama romance:

B doesn't have a fancy boat to catch her eye, but maybe he can get to R to show her how he feels about her? He just needs to pass the four enchanted gates...

The avatar of @97 NinetySeven (above) shows another of his brilliant creations, which appeared in The Long Haul 2. It seems almost impossible that he fit that beautiful tractor trailer into 16x16x16. And when I saw it roll out, the gears immediately started turning in my head...

Here's another amazing invention by @97 NinetySeven, from Subtle Control 4. When I saw the beautiful, realistic, maneuverable helicopter, I felt inspired to send it on a new mission. Maybe some R agents have stolen four power-stars to energize their new secret weapon? Can B stop them before they get away?

When I saw an interesting little "push sensor" by @Mekob_123, it inspired a funny idea...

(Later I remembered that @meko had put the same sensor in Boxer Tree)

 

This was inspired by a nice-looking little level from a while back, Never by @IWentTooFast. I really appreciate a good Escher-esque design (here's another). The mekorama updates broke my first edit of this level, so I tried again and I think this one is better...

I came across a beautiful and ingenious level by @Jóh recently, Dungeon (no longer in the forum). With surprising, fun mechanisms. I tried to close a shortcut, then was inspired with a few ideas for new gameplay.

The other day I was asked to try to update a few classic levels so they could be played with the newer version of Mekorama. One of them was a favorite of mine, Flexuous by @PvB. Nice logic with one of the most wild and surprising B moves I've ever seen. This version seems to work again, with almost the same gameplay:

@Sun Eagle Sorry, I missed that possibility! It should be fixed now.

 

Maybe here is a good place to thank @RZK for finding some great classic levels that needed an update to work with the newer versions of Mekorama (and for testing my fixes). Ten more levels have been updated recently, including @richardfu_'s Expedition, Side Entrance, and Last Mission, @Chuckthulhu's Juggler and Wall-3, @vince's Collide and Square One II, @Frince's 11x11, @XSHY's Team Work, and @Vicious Circle's Patch Forge.

I'll share that last one here, just because I like it and the little fix was interesting. Usually R-moves on rotating pieces are very tricky, but I got lucky this time and just needed to reverse the spin on the last rotor. I found it can be done by anchoring the motor to a slider:

The other day I saw another great level, Turret, on @Fendi's youtube channel. Not too difficult, with some fun surprises (like the beginning!). As I was watching the ending, a little idea came to mind. Then I wondered what the level would be like without the stars, and a had couple more ideas to try.

Some more levels are updated for newer versions of Mekorama (in collaboration with @RZK). They include @Logo's 4U, @shZ's Back To Home, @Bedrock's Diorite, @Squid Ward's Sector Six, and @BCTSNTY's Actuga, Lot Spill, and Nih Nat. I'll share the update for the last one, because of the fun P moves:

Here's a fun R-only level from @Fendi's youtube channel, Selasar, with a surprising P move. Some previous experiments while updating levels gave me an idea for a new ending, and I made the gameplay a little longer.

I was asked to try to update another great classic level by @vince, Caveman. Unfortunately the most impressive move of the level, a diagonal R walk, no longer works with the newer versions of Mekorama. But I tried my best to make it a little surprising and in the fun spirit of the original.

Another couple little updates for levels broken by the Mekorama updates. These have to do with the effects of R attached to metal blocks. The classic Revolt III by richardfu had a disappearing metal piece (attached to a hidden R) that no longer disappeared, so I just removed that piece. And in one of my levels, Four Combats, the win is attached to an R attached to a motor, and after the update the R-win would take off and float away! Here's the fixed version:
