Topic, Game "BLockoban 2"

  Good luck suhangha with creating more AltUniverZ levels, how far can this series go?

  @suhangha: no problem with the thumbnails of AltverZ 8.1, 8.2, 8.3 and 8.M, all of them were showing correctly. The reason why I haven’t evaluated your levels yet is that they were created a long time ago (maybe 2 years) and updated several times. It's difficult for me to know when they are ready for evaluation. I would suggest you to post a PM or a message in this thread when some levels are ready.

I have reset your score in 8.1, I will soon start evaluating them.

  Yes, it has been a while. About a year I think since you last published a AltverZ level here in Blockoban 2.

  Neon Mixtape Tour Time!
royal, bush, cold, and great... greatest hits of eighties!
'Great' levels AltverZ 8.1, 8.2, 8.3 and 8.M is ready! (Inspired by gameinsky, aniee, drstereos)


About 8.1: After quite a bit of testing and editing, I finally finished it. Much more challenging than 7.1. and it's the greatest level of the first row of the Matrix series

@nelson: please try to clear your browser cache and restart browser if images doesn't update.

Scored all. 8.1 should be removed my score. 11 moves.

  It's Auz 8.1, photo taken when it's unfinished. I made more challenging than the other N.1. honestly 7.1 also fun

  Just a few more highscores:

Colors Challenge 39A (BLockoban 2) - 19 (-1)
Red Ice III (BLockoban 2) - 11 (-1)
Pink Facility 3 (BLockoban 2) - 14 (-1)
Red Ice I (BLockoban 2) - 11 (-1)
RB Square II (BLockoban 2) - 9 (-1)

  Ok, I'll fix it asap. Thanks.

  @Chris: Please have a look on level RedWhiteBlue 11 (BLockoban 2). I have not found how to match 3 reds simultaneously on the bottom. If it is possible, please score on the level.

  From what I see on the Global Tournament scoreboard, you're off to a good start. You'll get the hang of the harder levels. Trust me.

  I just started playing this game yesterday, I really like it. JP did a great job organizing and creating this puzzle game. Some levels are hard even for the average solver/player. I haven't started making levels yet as I need to think about my puzzles and concepts.

Nelson is doing a fantastic job keeping up with his admin duties. I hope he can stay around for as long as possible.

  @nelson90: I fixed my "Yellow-Blue 8" level just now, I deleted the white block and added an extra yellow to make it possible. I also changed the thumbnail.

  Music 2 seems to be really hard for even amateurs to solve and complete. The links make it more difficult to learn the tricks necessary.

  @SimonM: Congrats, I tried a bit for an 11 and whilst it looked possible I never found one. Nice to see that it is possible and good to have something to aim for!

  I also finally solved AltverZ 7.M (BLockoban 2), AltverZ 5.9 (BLockoban 2) and Music 2 (BLockoban 2).

  Very well played Simon, excellent work!

  @Coolguy52: I managed to shave off 1 move from Green-Pink 15 (BLockoban 2).

  I submitted my "Pink Facility 3" level a few minutes ago. Can you look at it tomorrow or Saturday, @nelson90?

How is it?

  It's great to see you finally submitting levels here, welcome to the Blockoban 2 club! That's still around and alive/not inactive.

  I just submitted my first two levels on May 10th, 2025. Can you check it out the next day or two, @nelson90.

Thanks, I'm going on a out of town trip tomorrow night. So I'll be inactive for a good while.

  Thanks, I'll try to make time next weekend to see if I can beat your scores. Take care...happy Easter.

  Just thought I'd post some highscores I collected for you guys to challenge and beat!

YBR Rocks II (BLockoban 2) 17->16 - pretty fun one. I doubt this is maxed though.

Green-Pink 15 (BLockoban 2) 15->12 - there may be an 11 or even lower in there but this one seemed quite optimal.

Green-Pink 10A (BLockoban 2) 21->15 - I imagine that these are three initial scores, as mine was achieved fairly quickly. Maybe I got lucky with finding such a quick solution or maybe there's a lot lower lurking.

  Hey, there's about 300 levels I'm really stumped and clueless on. I feel stupid/dumb at times. Meaning I'm missing obvious moves and patterns needed to find the correct solution to certain puzzles. I still got a few lvls from xile that are killing my brain cells.

  Ok, I'll fix it as soon as I can, thank you for the reminder.

  @Chris: Please have a look on level Yellow-Blue 8 (BLockoban 2), it is not possible because the single white block cannot be matched. Please fix it and retake the thumbnail.

  Haven't made anymore levels here in a month. I wonder how xile is doing? He said he was in rehab for at least 7 years.

  Ok, I just updated the thumbnail, sorry for the delay. Oh, I see I had scored 5 on the original level, and when I changed the level the second time, my score was 22. Well the scores are reset now, thank you.

@nelson90

  It's not a bug, John. The scores aren't automatically reset when a level is updated. Thanks for fixing "Eight Yellow", it is much better now. I have reset the scores, you only have to retake the thumbnail and I will accept it.

  @nelson90 Hey, I fixed my "Eight Yellow" level and made it more compact and challenging. I adjusted the category to medium. I found a strange bug, I solved it in 26 moves and refreshed the scores page and it still showed my score of 5, and your score and CG52's score. The scores will have to be reset I suppose. Thank you.

  It's so tricky taking a thumbnail, sometimes I have to do it again because I lose my rhythm while pressing shift and the mouse to take the picture. It's all about trial and error, it can't be perfect all the time but I do my best for every level. I try to be as clean/neat as possible.
