Editor Experimentation
Design a custom puzzle that incorporates at least three different state tokens and a moving conveyor. Playtest to ensure every tile remains reachable.
- Start with simple layouts before adding complex elements like state tokens.
- Test your custom level using the undo feature to ensure solvability.
