Excellent level. Medium difficulty. Thanks a lot for it. I especially enjoyed the puzzles. Although I gotta admit that if DSpecht hadn't told me about the possibility to climb almost vertical walls I probably hadn't figured it out. Like always finding the hidden pyramids was the part that I liked best.

Really need to not put checkpoints in places you can get stuck if you didn't read the designer's mind a few rooms ago. That's obscenely obnoxious.

I see there´s an effort on making a challenging level design but sometimes it can get a bit frustrating. There´s no guidance needed, but some parts are a bit confusing because you don´t know if your next step will be possible or you´ll die again. In my opinion, for such a puzzle game, you shouldn´t rely on complicated moves at the limit of life or death (in game terms). Anyway, there´s also an effort on making a good architecture (I loved de inclined pillars) and a chalenging level as I said before. That´s why I think it would become a cool level with some fixes ;).

Part 1
I finally finished the level! I had no idea you could rotate the portal! The architecture is just wonderful. It is creative and stylized - definitely your best looking level yet.
I did have trouble, though, with all of the puzzles. They were really hard. I thought I had to race the platforms. I was able to skip the 2 cube door to the last building, and could not figure out how to Clijsters back out of that room. I wasn't able to build low enough.
You might work a little on clarity and guiding the player so they know what to do. That's pretty vague, but it comes down to limiting their options so there is only one thing that they CAN do, and it should be clear and not too difficult.

Part 2
If it is a new and difficult skill, it should be taught gradually. The way you did the room with the 2 platforms was good; there was only one solution, but it wasn't at all obvious and would have been better if the skill had been introduced earlier in an easier form, then repeated with the medium difficulty.
Let me know if you update anything! Thanks.

Wow ... the architecture is great! I like the first building a lot, though the secret would be better if the entrance wasn't right by the green cube. Maybe put its entrance out back or on the roof? I got stuck in the second building, and just couldn't figure out how to get into the second part. Maybe swap the blue cube access with the secrets - then we find the blue cubes and have to hunt for the secrets?

Let me know if you plan on making changes - great use of save stones and I REALLY like the Asian feel of the level. Just love those buildings and the slanted walls. It makes me want to build ... :)

Most of the time I had fun playing the level. Only when I had to find a way back to collect a forgotten blue cube I hated the Level. The four pyramids are nice.

You need 3 blue cubes to get through the door behind that door, make sure you never left a cube behind.

this is where I'm at.

I got stuck three times, then stopped playing.
First, I got stuck in the temple because I didn't collect the blue cube on top of it.
Still somehow managed to get through, didn't know I was supposed to have two blues there.
Got stuck a minute later.
Then I got stuck in the next building with two blues and four reds.
Then I got stuck in the same building with two blues and five reds.

I'll go play something else now.
