I won it with 2 flashes left over.
But this does look like a neat idea! I'll give it a try!
EDIT: Can I add space to have a 5x5 grid but make it Flash-safe?
EDIT2: Does the goal have to be to collect the star, or can we use other goals?
EDIT3: Sorry for so many questions, especially because I'll probably end up changing my mind about a lot of these ideas, but can we have objects on the edge that stick out, such as suction tubes?

I've got a completely mind-boggling level, now.
The level itself isn't too hard, but...
making it was one of the most painful recent Wonderland experiances I had.
It took me about two hours to complete.
Should I post it on here, or PM it to you?
P.S. I finished your level in shortly over a minute first try.

@ Wonderland King: Yes to all. Rules edited to mention those things. I took for granted the second two are allowed, but the first is a good point to raise. You CAN place extra walls for regular Flashing so long as that's
all tile 1,1 and the surrounding is used for.
And two Flashes left over? You must have found a more complex solution. I think mine is the simplest, but it's just an example anyway.
Jutomi: Yes, send that level!
EDIT: (PM is better, so other people can't try to copy your concepts.)

I finished it with two flash leftovers as well. As for the contest itself, looks interesting, definitely worth a shot.

im really not seeing the point of still trying to bring back the WA challenges

Because it could catch on again.

I think that challenges are a good way to get people back into making Wonderland levels with a specific goal at mind.
Take MNIK; He just disappeared from WA adventure making, for some reason.
I did a little, but that's mostly because of IWABMOIII and this secret level I'm working on.
The secret level's seriously just a normal adventure of mine that's taking an age for myself to figure out.
Any how, I actually have five Wonderland(Four WA, One RTW) things in progress, now; 2 are waiting as contest submissions, 1 is in testing, and 2 are in long term developement.
But, I obviously digress.
My point is that in addition to bringing Wonderlanders together to make adventures,
it also makes one think a bit....
differently, which is another reason why I like these so much.

I'm assuming by this contest-making's dead. Sammy_P, you were right.

I'm afraid so, sorry.

I did want to participate - I just didn't come up with much.

MNIK kinda got tired of adventure-making, though hopefully he'll remotivated for TMD. He's mentioned that sort of thing on the chat.
Anyways, I think I will do this challenge. Shouldn't take too long. We're just going for time, right?

Yaha, whatever puzzle takes the longest for him to accomplish.

You know, forget what I said earlier, I have an entry almost ready, if this contest is still running, I think it might live.
I'm going to pm my entry after testing, and I'm kinda proud how it turned out.

Alright, so I guess a bit of encouragement makes a difference after all. You guys can have as long as you want so long as you all finish.
@ MWM: Yeah, where is MNIK? I don't think I've seen him posting since I came back from my hiatus.

He's on the chat, generally latish at night. He got demotivated for WA again, and doesn't really have any reason to be getting on here in his opinion. A lot of people have started only checking pcpuzzle if they're informed of something interesting.

Where is the chat?

SS01 has a link in his topic in the Off-Topic New and Moderated subforum.
I just finished Yzfm's sub in an astounding 10 minutes and 38 seconds. I think he may win this.

Since I'm back for a short period of time, I thought doing some small puzzles wouldn't hurt. I've finished your example with 2 flashes left over:

Also, I wish I could have a submission for this, but I don't know if you'd wait 'til November.

At this rate of submission, yes.

Scratch that, actually--I don't wanna delay the release of the other levels, seeing that I shall be making myself scarce soon. Besides, I'm not too confident about whether I can make a satisfactory level when I return. If by some weird chance the contest hasn't ended in November then perhaps I would reconsider.

I am going on hiatus soon...any last calls for submissions before my week-long camping trip this Sunday?

tooncool's is in...it's not very likely to win though.

Just curious, how many more entries are you going to receive before announcing a winner?
Posted: Sun Aug 24, 2014 3:28 pm
by Wonderman109
I'd like at least 5 or so. MWM and Sammy_P, you're active right now. Why not try? (If this seriously stretches until samuelthx returns, I'm going to be laughing.)
