    I didn't get an answer...

    I just decided to try it again, and it wasn't currently under maintenance...

    It looks like the answer is "you can technically share levels and play them more than once, but only by skipping every single level until you get [back] to the level in question."

    As far as I can see, the level sharing really is limited to that one "play the next level in the list of all player levels" button. :confused:

    I also tested skipping a level, and there was no apparent way to replay the previous level.

    I don't see another option to share levels with friends, or to replay custom levels.
    You implied there was more to it than that one button. Is that it? Did I miss something? :eek:

    You're right, there is no way to quickly jump back to a level unless you have the link. This is by design.

    How often does one want to play a level they were previously on? Our guess is that's a very low use case. If you want to come back to a level you can save the link. Or, don't skip a level until you are finished with it. There are thousands of levels for you to play, and there is little need to get hung up on any given level. We feel that the way we have it designed is very low friction and allows for good gameplay flow, and also gives all builders a fair chance at their levels getting played. We use an algorithm that shuffles levels so that new levels get played and evaluated - if a level is rated highly, it will get precedence over others.

    I don't see a link, and I don't see where to enter a link. :confused:

    When you share a level you get a URL. Tapping on that URL opens King Rabbit and the level.

    Love King Rabbit, but an issue for me is that there is no way to progress if you're stuck on a level. It would be nice if all the levels in a world were open.
    (Been stuck on Ice Adventures 14-3 for a month...)

    I see...


    And...
    ...I see this is available after clearing the level.
    Now I know how it works.


    I tap the share button, then tap Copy and I get something like this to paste:
    It's not even copying only the link to paste it somewhere to save. I get tweet text. That's just weird; I'd expect to just receive the level link.


    This whole thing is very unintuitive.
    At first glance, there's seemingly no option at all except to play the next level.
    I never would have guessed I would have to put a URL in a web browser (outside the game!) as a replacement for a level select menu. :confused:

    With the way it works now, there should be a help screen with an explanation for how level sharing works.

    Like I said, there's seemingly only that one option to play levels.
    You can enter a URL, but in a web browser; normally menu options are found in the game itself... so this is very odd. :eek:

    Another thing: The method to get the level link is with a "share" icon.
    From what I've seen, that sort of button usually saves screenshots and/or opens a link to post to Twitter or something like that...
    I don't use these share buttons. People like me might never find the option to save a URL without being told it exists.
    So it really needs an explanation.

    Level 22-11 is currently broken. That's my bad. I accidentally moved the rabbit when curating the levels and adding diamonds. Will be fixed with the next update!

    Best,

    Hey, loved the apps you guys make since Furdemption!

    So, I feel like a moron for asking, but is 21-13 broken? I've been at it and it seems unsolvable. Also, it seems bugged; hitting the button that pushes over the wood and metal boxes often causes them to move in glitchy ways that doesn't seem to be appropriate.

    It is solvable! I'm not seeing the glitch. Can it be replicated? Could you share a screen recording (hit pause in King Rabbit and you'll see the red record button) and then share a dropbox link? That would be awesome.

    Best,
    Brian

    Thanks for the screenshots, we are aware of this bug but its been a real challenge to track down. For the recording, you should see buttons on the top right, which I see you don't have. If you want this feature I believe all you need to do is update your version of iOS.

    Thanks!

    Well that helps, I was stuck on that level... :rolleyes:

    Ever figure it out? That's the only level (excluding un-purchased Sapphire expansion) that I haven't beaten. Does it have something to do with the switches on the little moving platforms to the right?

    Anyone have any hints for 25-6 in the Emerald Expansion? I've got every other diamond in the game but I can't all of them on this level....
