Re: [Enigma-devel] level submission: minesweeper

[Brian Huffman]

Hello all,

I have attached an updated version of my minesweeper level.

I have added some features to make sure the level is solvable, and so  
that the player is never forced to resort to guessing.

- A check is done to make sure that all tiles are accessible from the  
boundary, without crossing any tiles with mines. No diagonal moves are  
necessary.

- Mines are never placed along the outer edge. This allows the player  
to uncover these tiles right away, which presents many more  
opportunities for locating mines by skill, rather than luck.  
Essentially this gives the player a lot more information at the start,  
which makes the level a lot easier; to compensate I have increased the  
number of mines.

- I have added a hidden area, which has a mechanism to give hints. You  
hit the st-timeswitch, it traps you behind a door for 10 seconds, then  
it uncovers a random tile and lets you out.
