Here we go: the 2007 Expansion Pack.

http://crystalshard.net/dls/expand.exe

First place: Maze of Madness, by The Stew Boy
Second place: Pipe Dream, by The Mystic
Third place: Grenade Bed, by Jeff Ray

The pack includes a handful of separate level files for SubTerra 2, since there weren't enough of those to create an expansion pack from.

Congratulations to the three above, and thanks everybody for participating!

---

Furthermore, as several people have requested this, let's start the official Hall of Fame for SubTerra II.

If you have a decent rank for ST2, please send me your player file, and I'll compile a proper listing.

If you're not on the SubTerra 1 Hall of Fame and you think you should be, likewise drop me a note. It is possible that I have lost a player file or two sent to me in the past, apologies for that.

Third place! Man, I can't believe it!

Well, I did expect the levels to be used in my very own levelset, but oh well... I guess it's fine with me.

Sure :)


Maze of Madness - out of a series of eight highly varied "maze" levels by Stew Boy, this one had the most ingenious puzzles and possible routes you could take through the level. Complex without being overwhelming, and deliberate without being random.

Pipe Dream - an interesting setup of small (in this case, tiny) rooms that are each individually trivial, yet when combined form an elaborate pattern. An emergent puzzle.

Grenade Bed - a combination of two rarely used puzzle features: teamwork between two players, and the fact that grenades can be moved with care to prevent them from blowing up. Both elegant and clever.

I'm level IX so guess that's high enough. I'll email you the save file though I'll probably send you an updated one once I complete the game (3 or 4 to go). Is that OK? I just haven't played for a while.

[EDIT]

Although PM's don't allow attachments, but the DROD email does. It's also never shown so worth enabling...

Wow... huge apologies. I really thought the email option allowed attachments (I haven't used it for a long while).

It seems it doesn't though (though it's probably worth keeping anyway). Not sure how best to proceed.

Maybe if I email you my email address via the forum?

I'll probably also attach my level V Subterra I player file unless that's not high enough?

Ah, I suppose you could just attach the two files right here in the forum.

If you're really paranoid about that, zip them with a password, and send me the password via PM.

Had I known that, I would've finished it sooner. That level had been sitting half-completed on my computer since 2002-2003 before I finally decided to finish it.

Sorry to double post, but nobody else has replied yet.

Two things: First, my "Got My Eye on Yous" level is misnamed; it should be "I've Got My Eye on Yous". I was forced to change the name because I couldn't attach a file with an apostrophe in its name.

Also, I found a minor design flaw in my "Sisyphus" level; if you drop the rock, it should be teleported back to the beginning, not get caught in a loop. Could you replace it with this version?

umm, this is a bit embarrassing! :

My level IX player is on a laptop that at the moment has a power supply problem.
when I can fix ( or at least power for a few minites ) I'll send it to you. :thumbsup
