VVVVVV Levels / Re: The RYB maze by endme

Updated again: missings spikes added, finale is less cruel (changed some destinations), no mid level credits page (instead, there's some help).

Thanks for the feedback, I really appreciate it! I'm taking notes for future levels.

Maybe it's just me, but iftrinketsless(number,script) doesn't seem to work.

Ok, let's see

- The mario rooms seemed a bit glitchy: I'm looking around in the editor to remind myself of where everything was, and I didn't realise there was a puzzle here at all when I played. I'm guessing I was supposed to take the bottom teleporter out in the mid level credits room, but I didn't feel like I had enough info to put that together!

7-4 is a tribute to Super Mario Bros. Bowser's castle where you were supposed to take the right route to get to the finish. In fact, it's exactly like the beginning of 7-4.

I realize, maybe it isn't clear at all. Adding some sad faces when you take the wrong route may help?

- A bigger problem is just walking off the screen on the left here leads to a big empty void! I continued playing from where I landed, but I can't help but feel like I did something wrong?

Bug. Those should warp. I'm sorry, at some point there were warplines, dunno where are they now.

About the die key: I'll put some spikes.

Last room: Mh, I was 100% sure that you could reread terminals, turns out I was wrong! Big problem here, I added a warning, but I don't know if there's other workaround...

Last room solving BIG SPOILER HERE:
You should already know that there are 9 warptokens, 4 destinations below you and

   9 8 7 6
      You
  1 2 3 4 5

3 warptokens that take you to the beginning
- Not in the corners,
- Surrounded by warptokens that won't harm you but won't take you to the exit.

1 that kills you
- It's below you (positions 1 to 5)

1 that takes you to the exit

'Some' that take you to '7-4'
- Not in positions 1, 2, 3, 5 or 8

1 that takes you to an unknown destination

Let's do it:
- There needs to be a destination repeated below you. '7-4' can't be, because the warptokens below you are numbered 1 to 5. So, there's 2 warptokens that take you to the beginning.

- These 2 warptokens can't take the positions 2 and 4, because they are surrounded by others that won't harm you, and the one that kills you is below you. So 2,3 and 3,4 left.

- If they took positions 3 and 4, the one that kills you would be 1. 2 warptokens left, positions 2 and 5. The one that saves you is a no go (can't be near the beginning ones), and '7-4' can't go as they're fibonacci numbers. So we're left with 2 positions and only one warptoken (the unknown). No way.

The only working combination is:
1 - Unknown  2 - Beginning  3 - Beginning  4 - '7-4'  5 - Killer

We're left with the one that goes to the exit, 2 '7-4' and another 'beginning' one. I won't develop this one, but as you'll find out the only possible combination is:
9 - '7-4'  8 - Beginning  7 - '7-4'  6 - Exit.

BIG SPOILER ENDS


PLEASE let me know if there's anything that can't be understood.

Updated with the 7-4 fix, the sad faces, some spikes and the warning.

VVVVVV Levels / The RYB maze by endme

Hello everyone, first post here, I wanted to share a small (6x6 with some unused rooms) and easy level I've created.

Why should you play this level? Well, it takes a different approach than most of the levels I've seen. Technical skill is not required. Logic is rewarded here. I've used lots of trinkets and some scripting to make it possible. Want to know more? Download the level!

Although it's a beta, this is probably it's final state. Besides bugfixing, I won't plan on doing any major changes. Instead, if people like it, I can focus on doing a real and bigger maze.

Please notice that I'm not a native English speaker, so there might be some spelling errors. If you notice one, let me know and I'll update the map :viridian:
