Quite good, just too bad that level 12 is unsolveable (just like level 10, until I solved it of course ;)

Added an optional background image and fixed the Sound On/Off.

Here is pack of 52 puzzles... only 3 boxes in each but still rather tricky, put the file in the PPack folder:

52 piece puzzle pack

Heres the solution to Level 12:

they are all solvable..honest. :)

I believe you, but don't spoil it.

Started out on a pack of my own, nothing really hard so far though, by the way, what's level 15 about?

yeah level 15 I solved and then saved over it... a quick fix ;)

I can post the editor if you like.

Ah, you got a real editor, probably more comfortable than messing with text files :) Though those 52 took some of confidence.

Heres the Jimmy Sokoban editor put it in the main folder:

I'v thought about doing a fun wee game liks this for a while now, as a little side project, but I was wondering how you manage to work out the levels.

I know some of them only have one possible way of completing them, so how do you go about working that out.

Do a search for a program called rbox its a program that will generate sokoban puzzles, you give a solved puzzle and it will try and solve it if it can be solved or you dont run out of memory.

I created a few with that, but a quick search on the net for "sokoban levels" turns up 1000's of em.

Just look for puzzles that have no restritions on using the puzzles and then write a little bit-o code to convert them into a format you want to use.

Simple. ;)

Yeah me to i just solved puzzle 10 :D

Rbox can be found on the downloads page of this site: http://www.sokomind.de/index.html

What no bug report Perturbatio? ;)

If you insist... :)

Bug#1: When loading a puzzle pack, if you click cancel, it loads it anyway.

Bug#2: The export solution button doesn't appear to work.

Also, it would be nice to get a context menu for copy/paste in the solution manager.

Bug#3: sometimes the z-order of the game window is set to be the bottom most, it happens when loading (or even cancelling the loading of) a puzzle pack.

Bug#4: if you look at a solution in the solution manager, then load another puzzle pack and look at the solution manager, the old solution is still there until you select a level.

Hehe! I knew you would find something.

I'll see to all your points.

It's a gift I have ;)

Turning the sound off via the menu did not appear to work, and faced with the threat of listening to the terrible sound effects for the duration of the game, I quit. Definitely a bug you want to fix!

He fixed that and re-uploaded. Sound on/off works fine for me.

Yes!

This game is great! I liked Sokoban in the earlier days and now this wonderful little remake! :) Perfect for playing inbetween and when you don't know what to do!

My sister likes it too! ;)

Now we are at the bug reports, if you solve a level, and edit it, it will still be registered as solved, try cheking if the solution is actually a solution.

Or better yet, just reset the solution once the puzzle has been edited.

Where are the online scores?

More bugs.. im on it.

No online scores yet, need to build the website first.
