Can you all run this and time how long it takes you to get through it? I didn't draw this and I think the grid it's on is smaller than the one we will have but I want to get an idea of how difficult something like this is

I think what I would LIKE to do is have one path that goes through the teleportation spots, but ends at a dead end right before the exit, while having another one that DOESN'T use the teleportation panels that is the actual solution.

I like that as well, that is a double fake and it's great

I was thinking the same thing, but i think having a path from a teleporter that goes alll the way back to the start might work too. We need paths that slow down drawing

I won't be able to help much with Stage 1 but will probably be back in time for stage 2

What this does is mean you GET to the second transporter and you have to weasel your way all the way back to near the start. We should make this take AS long as possible, once they find the right path

Yes I agree 100%. My plan is to work on the maze tomorrow for a bit.

So my idea is the maze is three parts Green - intestinal - not hard, but they have to ZIG ZAG to the teleporter, with just a few wrong turns Yellow, intestinal with a few more paths Red, try to cram in LENGTH and fake paths as much as possible with remaining space

The teleporter then makes it hard to visualise a path trhough to the end. THe over goal is to make drawing the path as HARD as possible.

I'm going to be pretty useless in helping with the design stage I'm afraid. Apparently I've just picked the absolute worst weekend to be limited access.

Im going to try again. My first one is not hard enough

So this was my idea to have the paths weasel around a lot, but its left me with too few forks.

I really wish I could make the path spell out "PADDOCK SUX"

Does anyone know what the process for solving is? Is it like you click a timer on the form, solve, upload the completed one and then click submit? Or does the timer start as soon as you open the form or what?
