I’m off to America on my holidays!
But I’ll leave you with Open Doors. All the best of luck there. You’ll not be getting any more work done today.
Mucho thanks to Sam for usual excellent tippage.

America, eh? Any chance you’ll be in Chicago? If so, look me up, I’ll buy you a drink.

Ooh, enjoy the lovely exchange rate!

Level 8 is hard. :<
report
I’m stuck on level 8, damn you mr walker, DAMN YOOOOUUU!
Also, nice find :P

Is it just me that saw the image above and immediately thought of TimeSplitters 2′s map maker? It looks identical!

SPOLIER 8: start your door-opening circuit of the inner ring under the cross
My mind starting hurting on 9 so I gave up.
report
Stuck on level 9… Can’t open the last door!
EDIT: Never mind :D
EDIT2: Curse you, level 11
report
Eight stuck me for a bit, then I went away and did something else and solved it right away when I went back to it.
report
But gah. 13′s a bitch; multiple doors on one space, doors slamming into OTHER doors and closing them . . . it’s awful.
report
Yeah I gave up somewhere around level 12, things were getting quite complicated. And there’s 25 levels! Sheesh..
Have a good vacation John! (and remember to bring us back some more compo prizes!)
report
Hmm don’t go to Connecticut, it’s a shithole.

It’s Philly. Well, just outside in New Hope and Newtown. If only it were Chicago, Michael. The best place on Earth. Sadly my Chi friends moved to PA, which very rudely messed up the free accommodation.
I saw Wanted the other night – Chicago porn. From now on I’m exclusively riding the L on the roof.
report
I got up to level 13 before I got distracted by something else. Things started to get pretty tricky considering that it’s only halfway through. Will need to finish it some other time, I love puzzles. Nice find.
report
Great game. Temporarily given up on lvl 13 aswell.
I’ve now been sitting for awhile trying to figure out how to reproduce this game in human torture maze form.
report
Enjoy the break dude. If you see Angelina, ask her for my socks.
report
I managed to complete it with infinite moves. After you beat it with infinite movies you have the option to go back and try to beat every puzzle with the minimum number of moves.
Some of these puzzles are essentially nightmare-inducing with minimal moves.
report
Gave up on level 13..
Great game all around. Very simple mechanics that can be grasped in a few seconds lead to highly complex problems. Good stuff.
report
Very nice, but it’s a pity that the programmer didn’t think of giving you a code to continue wherever you left it last time.
(or at least the version I played)
report
This is ridiculously addictive. I got to Level 18 yesterday lunchtime, but since then haven’t played it for fear of it affecting my work.
