+1 to all the voices loving this. These are really nice. Particularly impressive for a budget of just 1-2 hours per piece!

+++ LEVEL 50 +++ Went a little crazy with this one. But hey, I AM HALF WAY TO 100 LEVELS! Created from my love of LED cubes. This is a virtual 8x8x8 matrix. Want to make this a controller for and actual LED cube ( like this one http://www.lookingglassfactory.com/ ) , but I would need some programming help : D Hit me up if you are interested.

@SnakeCoiler Good ideas. I have kicked around the idea of not stopping at 100 levels, or adding secret levels, or other options. We will both have to wait and see what happens. I like going crazy with the levels. Yesterday I was able to go crazy with level 50 because I had the day off. I probably put 6 hours into that one instead of the usual 1 or 2. +++ LEVEL 51 +++

I think you should stick to your original idea of 100 mini levels and then put your effort into polish (sounds, nice looking introduction and options menu) so you can release it as a complete-feeling game.
Save the more ambitious goals for when you've got a healthy measure of feedback from the "original" and are ready to do a bigger sequel.

Alright, first of all, absolutely stunning work so far. I haven't been this floored by anything in a long time. Second: have you considered stopping visual updates from here on in? I looove all of the levels you've created so far, but I think it would be incredible to experience a lot of them by playing them for the first time, preserving that joy of exploration and discovery.

@SirNiko Thank you for the sage advice. I definitely want to do a sound and music pass on this once I am done. I will do a polish pass on this after 100 levels. I will probably just pour future ideas into my next game, in a much more designed manner. @FK in the Coffee and @SnakeCoiler Thank you both! Showing an image a day, and creating an imperfect level a day, and spending so little time on each level, and basically spoiling the game ( in low quality gifs ) all kind of go against my usual way of working. Forgotten Passages is an experiment of mine in many ways, pushing myself do things quick, every day, and putting it out there for everyone to see. My usual mode of working, is spending a long time on a project, perfecting small details, all while not showing anyone what I am working on. ( for example, I spent two and a half years working on Aisling http://aislinggame.com/ without showing it at all) Without the 2 hour limit I would easily spend days or even weeks on each of these levels, adding more detail, making them more complex etc. So for this project, I will keep posting every day until I reach 100 levels, or at least 99. It is also an experiment in social media, how does posting unique content every day affect my visibility? Feel free not to look at any more of these posts if you don't want spoilers. ( I won't even watch trailers for movies I plan to watch, so I understand) My next game won't be so out in the open, but it won't be hidden either ( also, much more polished ) Thanks for the thoughts. +++ LEVEL 52 +++

I love it. I really like how each level is very different. Im curious though? What do you do in these levels? Is there a puzzle to solve?

Watch you do... is walk through a small, surreal, almost purely visual level. You will find a portal that brings you to the next world when you are ready to leave. There will be 100 of these small zenscapes, of sorts. +++ LEVEL 57 +++
