After deliberation and lots of nearly-smashing-the-keyboard moments... CaSTL and I picked six levels to win the Bond Builder Contest.

Check them out here.

I'll note again - all the levels were really neat, and it's a huge pleasure for me to be surprised by my own game... something that each of the levels did. And of course, *all* the levels are being posted in the user-made menu of the game, where there is plenty of room for more!

Random, on the topic of rating the level difficulty by Skill vs. Puzzle: I like that idea a lot. There are such different types of levels out there (Electronmaku, for instance, that is supremely hard, but not too intellectual... and on the other side something like A-Maze-Ing, which is a slow, thoughtful level.) Of course, this is all crazy subjective anyway, but I think I'll give that a go... and see if I can organize the levels a bit more sane-ly that way.

For the moment, I've left the 1-5 star ranking, and will put newer levels towards the front. But as we've all found out, the difficulty ratings shouldn't be taken too seriously. (I'm looking at you, everyone-who-beat-prison-break-easily!)

Long story short, for the next week, you can create and share levels... and CaSTL and my favorites will get put in the official Bond Breaker game. What's the coolest, hardest, funnest, science-y-est, punny-est level you can make? Share your NCW levels below to enter. (Or you can post in the other thread, just mention the NCW challenge when you do so I'll know to enter it.)

Finally, this is mainly for fun -- so play each other's levels, give feedback, change and resubmit levels, challenge me to beat your extremely hard level, whatever!
Hello guys,

Is there going to be the nest event at CaSTL? Where can I submit my creations? I have more than 20 puzzles now. What format should it be?

Thanks,
Terry

No more events planned, Terry -- so if you've got levels, the best place to share them would be in this thread: viewtopic.php?f=11&t=222&start=10

Looking forward to checking them out!

Hey...The first one is easy in 3.0-Electrons released after H3 explodes turn the lazy proton into an atom
