Subject: Re: The Time Hole

 

"Jump over the chute in "The Drop", walk left to
fall down it, and you'll see what I mean! I think this
can/could happen in the room "WE PRETTY" as well."

i
spotted this on one of my first goes too, but completely
forgot to tell you about it.

as a rule, i always
try the least obvious thing when playtesting - often
it leads to me modifying a room in one of two
ways:

1) to correct a mistake/bug i've discovered through
the experimentation

or

2) to force the
player to take the route i took in the experimentation
:)

for example i may have made it so you *had* to fall
down on the right side, by putting a nasty somewhere
on the left side.

i'm looking forwards to the
re-issue of the time hole, if it happens that is, since
i'm feeling confident enough to try it without the
cheat :)
