Topic, Game "BLockoban"

  Great job John! I will try to match your score on Gem Field 2 as soon as I have a bit of time. At the moment, I still have many levels to evaluate.

@Chris: a huge thank you for this tribute, I really appreciate it.

  Great job John, you should feel strong and proud of yourself!

And @nelson90: I made a level just for you. For being the best administrator ever. Maybe it all worked out that I lost my admin powers because now Blocokoban 2 is protected too. And hopefully it will stay that way. Take care guys, happy holidays.

  Hey nelson, found a new score for Gem Field 2. Maybe 20 is possible for someone? Not sure yet.

  I found Nelson's highscore in "RW Circles". It took an hour for me to find it. I had to do it in 20 different ways before finally finding the correct solution. Bravo to all pros here.

  Tied Nelson's score of 18 in Green Windmill. I tell you, it took a long time, about 1 whole month to discover the solution. I used trial and error and found different ways to start the level. And I eliminated my possibilities.

  Just cracked a huge highscore in "Berry Time 2". It's an old level from a little over 2 years ago. On Page 34.

  Tied for the highscore in Spread Snow II. Got 17 as well. Only took 3 attempts before earning my score. It seems like I've been getting better scores the past 2 months, which is good because I know my skills are leveling up rapidly.

  I found an even better score in, "White Beam 3". Can anyone find or get close to it? It's fun searching for highscores to beat for optimization purposes.

EDIT: I also matched Nelson's score of 28 in Colors Challenge 100.

  Hope everyone has a wonderful, safe, relaxing and enjoyable Christmas and New Year's holiday this year of 2024. Take care guys. Have fun and eat with your families and friends. I hope we get some snow this time.

  Nice job, John! I'm always happy when someone beats one of my highscores, it gives me a new challenge.

Level Edit Symbol (BLockoban) was really not fully optimized, I found a 15-move solution.

  Hey Jola, you should try SimonM's global pack. It features all the accepted and official levels. Over a 15 year period. So join us on this solving journey. It's up to you, and anyone else can hop in too. It's never too late for action-cutting fun solving puzzles and optimizing scores.

  Something amazing happened to me just now. I got the same score as Nelson in "Green-Yellow 6". It's really easy getting a score below 50. Fun level for people of all ages to play.

EDIT: Also, I found a newer solution in "Edit Symbol." 21 moves

Nelson got 22.

  Well I changed my mind, I'll still play games and keep doing what I'm doing here, I just won't be active as I used to. It's time for me to do different things and get my self-esteem up. I've been cooped up indoors for about 12 years ever since my health issues have progressed. I'll explain more about it later.

  Hi guys, I got my Playstation 5 delivered Monday afternoon, I'm gonna set it up this weekend so I'll be sidetracked and inactive for a while. However I'll still post on my phone/laptop and check in but I'm not doing any games, I need a break. I'm happy to say that I'm making progress, I've got 1,306 levels to go. I commented on some if you want to know which ones I've recently solved.

However I need a hint for these levels, I think Jos is a brilliant level designer with these secret tricks. Minimized and Missing Block

Don't know how he does it, and you guys are amazing too at your levels, it's what makes Blockoban a fun and interesting place. Take care guys and enjoy the holidays and Christmas cheer.

  Ok Ryan, scores are reset and your level is accepted.

Note: it wasn't necessary to change the design of the level (only the border) and the puzzle can be solved without the white icy. Anyway, I give you 5/5 for your first level.

  Ok, done. The scores will have to be reset because I added an icy block to help the blocks. It is a crucial part in solving the level. So, here is my fixed version of "Trapped Inside".

  Happy to welcome you Ryan! Thanks for your first submission.

Your first level is fine and fun to play. I have no remark on the level itself, only a cosmetic detail to be improved: the thick border doesn't look very nice and should be reduced. Please do it, then retake the thumbnail.

  Welcome to the BB club Ryan, you'll find many levels here to be fun and pleasant and can help you practice to improve your solving skills here. So, have fun and try to get the lowest scores possible.

  Hi, I am new to this site and I just submitted my first level. I hope it is sufficient enough and decent for any of you to play. I did my very best.

@Nelson: could you take a look at it today or tomorrow and let me know how it is and if I need to retake the thumbnail. Thank you.

  I'll let you guys know if I get anymore highscores so you all can improve your scores too, just for fun. We all have to do something fun in Blockoban to keep it going. Wow, this game is almost 17 years old. The very first post made here was 16 years ago. I can't believe it.

  Another challenge, I scored a 9 on "Coke Can 7". Can anyone match my score? Here's a hint, one of the white icy blocks can be useful for the red blocks.

  Matched it too, very nice challenge PuzzleFan! I also feel that 9 is probably not possible.

There are still 5 Suhangha's levels without score: Block Travel 7.3 (BLockoban), Block Travel 7.4 (BLockoban), Block Travel 7.8 (BLockoban), Block Travel 7.9 (BLockoban) and 107 Royal Sinkhole (BLockoban). I already asked him to prove that these levels are possible. I will give him a few more days, then I will be obliged to set them to be edited.

  Matched it! Very fun one to do in 10, not too sure if 9 is possible. I can't see it but this game isn't my strong suit.

  New challenge guys. I posted a score of 10 on Chris3000's level called, "Red Square II". Can you find and match my score, I don't think 9 moves would be possible there. But maybe someone can prove me wrong.

Also, there is still a score not shown on Block Travel 7.3. Is this level possible or not? I worked on it for an hour and found no solution.

  Link is OPEN!!! And I made easier version to anyone can solves. If @one solves, please capture and share the scene

Latest Version

Easier Version

  - The game board changed to bold
- Added undo function/button
- The outline can be customized with RGB color picker. Monochromatically. but not supposed an image background


Now, I just need to get the explanation, and then, the latest version will be finished.

  @chris - You are creating a lot of different sets of levels with more than 10 levels in them. I wonder if packs would be useful or necessary for each of these series to organise them. Also, I'm confused why some of these levels have seemingly unrelated A, B and so on versions. I assumed that A and B would be similar, but for example with Red-White 36A (BLockoban), Red-White 36B (BLockoban) and Red-White 36C (BLockoban), I struggle to see the similarities, particularly with C.

  not an error/a glitch in GGB, but the issue is that no features, suck:
the ability to upload image files to surface is there, but there is no function for line; can only Monochromatic line


UPDATE: Add undo buton

  V3 making...

  Good luck with your game. That sucks you can't edit the background. Is it a technical error or glitch?

And over 2,500 levels solved for this game!
