Description
This level represent to you the logic of the binary randomizer.
Of course it is not a real random, because the each results depends from each other. But it perfectly works for first press if player does not see the mechanism.

First room: the main mechanics from Geneosis's level ( http://cs2bus.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=75311321 ) , but it was improved a bit.
The weaknesses of this logic:
- You need one additional button for launch a ball into this system
- Ball can touch the buttons for a while. without activate the funnels.
- The blue ball can be unstable for a long time e.g. use it with the funnel or light bridge.

Second and trird rooms are more stable but it is not so random for repeated press

I like this. went thru kinda quick. will slow down and examine it later. might borrow some ideas if it's ok (giving credit of course). thanks for all the work getting it right. btw i had some trouble getting the jump just right also but made it with blue gel.

Another great design, and nicely done with making the thingies work.

I have really been too stupid. Thanks for the hints.

I tried it by myself and i may to say that is possible to solve lvl with any gel =)
With blue, like Geneosis wrote, you need to jump twice, and for orange you need to jump in the right moment after you get a high speed

Really strange... 2 squares is supposed to be the exact height of a blue gel bounce ^^"
cyron43 30 Jun, 2012 @ 1:15pm 
That's strange. I tried several times but it won't work for me. I experienced this with other chambers as well. Either I am too stupid to jump right or my computer glitches at calculating the physics. *shrugs*
Geneosis 30 Jun, 2012 @ 1:09pm 
Hmmm... The blue gel will work... You just have tou bounce at least 2 times on it to get enough height ^^
cyron43 30 Jun, 2012 @ 1:07pm 
Well I couldn't make it to the exit in the last chamber with neither of the gels. The jumps are always a bit too short. I know this is not really the goal of the demo but anyway it's somewhat frustrating.

I just rushed through this one because I run out of time. Looks great so far and I will explore the details tomorrow.
