Well, I lied. I said that version 1.2 would be it, and that any additional levels would go into a new set.
Version 1.4 adds a level, "Pistons of Pain". There's the first lie, but I'm sure very few people will complain. But 1.4 also brings the Playground into the current state-of-the-art for Avara levels. In other words, I figured out or was helped to figure out win teleporters and bubble teleporters (you know, when you start to run far, far away and are pulled back in...)
These are levels that are meant to be played with Ambrosia's game, Avara. Of course, you probably knew that already.
There are three levels; the original playground, complete with sandbox, UFOs and a second incarnator that really works this time. I promise, Ian! <grin>
The second level is called "Take Your Pills!" and was an experiment with pillboxes. I hope you find it as delightful as I...
The third level is the "Industrial Park". There are boxes to be slung at your opponents, along with a working elevator platform and windows that you can break. I'm especially proud of them. <grin>
The fourth level is "Pistons of Pain". This level was based on a conversation with Ian. (you can find him off my main home page) Anyway, we wondered aloud what would happen if you balanced one free solid on top of another and then shot out the bottom one...and then perhaps put a force field under the whole works so that you would have a magic bouncing object. Isn't physics wonderful?
