Yes. I know I should have reworked that section but the developers want to make sure that there is no randomness with how the objects can interact with each other, which would make puzzles harder than they need to be based on chance. I guess I found a bug and the developers should be notified. I like the idea I tried to make happen here. I don't feel like changing it to work around a bug.

Does that mean that even the correct solution doesn't work every time you run it? If so, you really should have tried to replace that section with something less random.

Actually, Milton is not consistent. This isn't a bug in the contraption. This is likely a bug in the game. Play this contraption a dozen times or so without moving any parts around. Miltons trajectory varies sometimes.

Unless I'm missing something, getting Milton through all the bouncepads at the start is complete trial-and-error of putting parts (particularly the cheese) in exactly the right spot so the physics will propel him somewhere useful. Does the puzzle actually require perfect positioning of the cheese or am I nuts?

Other than that this seems like a very well-made puzzle, with some good ideas and generally exploit-free.

Oh really? I thought that would be pretty silly. I saw that Tim falls through a hole that leads to the trampolines so I just thought he was the one that went through that maze. :steammocking:

Probably should've tried more locations to place the cheese.

Tim bouncing around had nothing to do with the solution. It was just some weird quirk that happened as I was placing trapolines. Milton is the one to go through that maze.

I couldn't figure out the second half. It looked like Tim was suppose to bounce his way onto the seesaw above him but I couldn't get him enough height.

either way It was good that I managed to figure out how the contraption runs. Giving the player a good idea on where the start is really helps. :steamhappy:

Oh, I meant that he will be the dessert. :steammocking: I have nothing in the contraption that could remotely resemble dessert (blender isn't there for one immediately I can think of).

How funny. I totally misread that. I thought you said Milton will *prepare* a great dessert and I didn't quite get it.
