McGill Well-Known Member Oct 31, 2008 707 0 0 Florida #2 McGill, Mar 1, 2009 I understand there are four levels, but how many different puzzles are there? Duael Member Feb 28, 2009 13 0 0 3D Graphics, Environment Lighting Washington State #3 Duael, Mar 1, 2009 There a 5 puzzles for each level. 20 total. But, each time you replay a game, the scrambled start state can be different....so there is more variety than 20 would suggest. Duael Ro® Palfince Well-Known Member Dec 30, 2008 1,817 0 0 England #4 Palfince, Mar 1, 2009 Are there going to be any more levels added or the ability to use your own pictures? Duael Member Feb 28, 2009 13 0 0 3D Graphics, Environment Lighting Washington State #5 Duael, Mar 1, 2009 Last edited: Mar 1, 2009 Added features We have talked about adding that obvious feature. But, we found during development that complex images can make even the simple puzzles almost impossible to solve. You can solve any of these puzzles by "brute force accident", rotating randomly until solved, but the current design uses controlled images that allow you to visualize the "Parent-Child" relationship between rotating rings. Those that choose to understand this relationship will be able to approach each puzzle with confidence, and they can then attempt to beat a previous score (time, and/or # moves). As for other levels. We are waiting to see the results from players as to how they fell about its current state of "repeat playability".

GatorDeb Well-Known Member Feb 1, 2009 2,404 0 0 Las Vegas, NV, USA #7 GatorDeb, Mar 3, 2009 I bought it but don't really understand it. Then again the puzzle games I don't understand at first tend to become my favorite ones Duael Member Feb 28, 2009 13 0 0 3D Graphics, Environment Lighting Washington State #8 Duael, Mar 7, 2009 Thank you for buying GatorDeb. This puzzle is based on a object hierarchy called the "Parent Child Relationship". That is to say, one objects movement (parent), causes another object (child), to follow.....but moving the child will not cause the parent to move. Add to this the act of + or - rotational values applied to the child (children). This relationship is a common working tool for 3d animators, a profession in which I work, and can be demonstrated here, in a movie file at our website. http://www.duael.com/ro/in_tip2.htm http://www.duael.com/ro We have used images that clearly show the angle (90, 180, 270, 0) of a given ring, so you can better plan a move(s), as in the movie file above. Hope this helps. Duael Member Feb 28, 2009 13 0 0 3D Graphics, Environment Lighting Washington State #9 Duael, Mar 7, 2009 Thank you for buying GatorDeb.
