LOL! Man, if we had a prize for trying to do things the hard way; you'd definately be the winner!. No wonder you had a hard time making the jumps! Congratulations though; you're the first one to send the right number to me. I PM'ed you back at OG.

Alright, I'm putting together an "Easy" version of the level. This version has no clue word to the Riddle, and no key to get into the secret room (and therefore instantly win the WII Pack). I'll upload it, and give a link to it when I can get to a high-speed site.

I think I may do this in the future as well; I kind of like the idea.

not now
I already have the word for the riddle. And if I locate that 'key on the rear end of table', I should be in the room too.
And now you release an easier version??

Just that I am at a friend's place and cant play the level right now.

Out of curiosity, are you making an easier level coz you dont see many people trying this time?
If yes, it could be because of the 2 contests already going on.

As far as the layout, the only difference is that there is now stairs where there was the elevator to get to the top; you also get 3 lives. Everyone still has to go through the same obstacles as the normal version. Except the Easy version has no clue word, and no key to the Secret Room. The only thing you'll get by completing the easy version is the contents of the final room (which will get you the Riddle when it's time).

I'm making an easier version, because we are offering the WWII Pack as an additional prize this month. We've had a significant number of downloads so far. This contest wouldn't really be affected too much by the other 2, because you're just playing through a short level in your spare time; instead of creating a level/game yourself.

ya, you should!
It was really well designed considering it was a FPS. I think more people should add these kind of obstacles in their game along with all the shooting and stuff.

Having something other than running around shooting each other adds more dimension to your level; IMO.

Why dont you make one yourself. If you do, we all will have twice the number of mazes to play in a month

I am sure all of us like solving puzzles and mazes (I for one do!)

You dont have to host a contest for that. Just make a level and put it up on the showcase for everyone to play it.

So can you tell me the time you will be sending out the emails?
So that I can be online at that time.

Cause if the riddle is not very tough, it might boil down to who reads the email first.

check ur email Keith.

btw, I woke up some 4 hours later than your riddle send-out time and just replied with what I thought was the answer.
Can I enter more answers? Or is it just 1 answer per person?
