Hey Steve
Nothing from you for a few years and then bam! - 5 messages in just over an hour. Christmas must be coming.
Not much has been happening lately with regard to the "special" levels. The heyday of that is unfortunately past us and I'm sorry that I joined too late to take part in creating stupendously long levels. I did make a couple of binary adders and another that converted any 4 bit number from binary to unary (which was also playable), plus a couple of real-time clocks, a shape sorter, and a code-reader. I had plans to make a multiplier but never <s>finished</s> started it.
More recently I released some levels with an automatic binary "lock" which forces you to count from 00000 to 11111 before letting you thru. I have some other ideas but don't have as much time for LT as I used to. Maybe I can be inspired again.
