Level 3 1S1W seems to be impossible. Unless there's a secret wall I've not found, there's no way to get to the mothers before the tar next to the last checkpoint blocks the path, and since you've got two-square-wide passages down there, the tar's creating an overly effective wall between Beethro and his goal.

o_o I didn't mean to take out *that* many walls... Just one or two squares by the last checkpoint woulda done it ;)

OK, so on to the next irksome bug that needs squashing (sorry I'm not finding more of these all at once, but in order to not have to go over the same rooms multiple times, I just play beta holds start-to-finish, as if the warp rooms didn't exist). In L4 1S1W, you've got a spider stashed in an area right at the center of the south end of the room that is impossible to reach. This is irksome for two reasons. First, it's a *spider*, which means you have to search the whole room looking for what's keeping you from clearing it. Second, it's in a little four-square area that's, well... unreachable from the rest of the room.

I'm definitely liking this hold so far, in any case.

On level 4 the secret is unbeatable because there are no monsters in it. I can throw one in if you want!

Level seven, I have looked and looked, I found the secret, but I can only get 60% explored. And I know there are more rooms, I can look in the editor, but how do you get to them?

I'm terribly sorry, there is no way to get to the other 4 rooms of the level. It will be fixed soon! New version coming soon!!

Level 9, the secret room isn't beatable because of the queen in the top left corner.

Level 9 stairs end the hold.

Level 7, stairs behind the blue door end the hold. Given that there's a bug report for level 9, I think that's not supposed to be happening.

Also, most of those secret rooms on Level 7 *really* seem to be kinda pointless. One square into a room that's absolutely full of just rocks and nowhere to go but back? I'd honestly suggest you put *something* into those rooms to make them more worthwhile.

A major problem on Level 10 is that the passageway to get to the exit room is one-way... and can be entered before solving *any* rooms other than the entrance. Bad design there.

As far as I can tell, those're all that's left, though. I was able to finish the hold start-to-finish this time ^^

Level 5, 1S1E can't be completed, though it appears to not be required.

edit: Oh yeah, the scripts needs tweaking in a number of rooms. There really shouldn't be any speech or NPC's appearing after the rooms have been completed. Plus there's a number of spelling mistakes. Sorry, I never made a note of which rooms.
