Windows game:
If you are interested, I have created a puzzle game with many type of objects:
-Rocks: pushable
-Ice Blocks: pushable, but still move until it reach a wall
-Keys and Doors: there are 4 colors
-Switchs: open or close some doors
-Switchs with a blue square: require an Ice Block for activate it
-Timed Switch: open or close some doors for a short periode of times
-Warps : teleport you to the corresponding number
-Yellow Arrows: let's you run in the direction of the arrow until you reach a wall
-Red Arrows: You can't go to the opposite direction
-Green Arrows: let's you jump over objects
-Green Blocks: breakable only if you run on it
-Fog: make some objects invisible
-Sight Limit (1 to 5 squares): you see at a certain limit like in Dragon Warrior 1 in caves
There are 23 Levels
The last one is very hard to complete
Some puzzles can take hours to solve.
The play time and the number of retries are displayed on the top of the window. The game save at every level and when you close the game.
Controls:
Arrows: move the ball
Numpad0: restart the current level
Esc: close the game

Please retry later if the link doesn't work.
I used Game Maker 6.1 to make it.
Other games I have created:
-Mario Kart 3D (Demo only)
-Super Mario Plus (Able to play 2 players at the same time) (Levels are randomly generated)
-Tetris Plus (my first creation)
-Master Mind (math game) (new concept)
All games work on Windows only.
Please everyone, tell me if you are interested to do a competition on this game and if you want to try my other games: I will publish them and create more if there are enough people interested.
If you are interested for the competition, I want to know who will be able to finish my game in first (a password is displayed at the end of the game: write it on this forum to be the winner), who will be the faster and who will complete it with the less number of retries. Please don't restart a new game until you finish it, because I want to know the first result of everyone.
EDIT: I changed the path of the link
Level 9 appears to be impossible, unless I'm missing something...
Start (what you can get immediately with no losses): 1G 1Y 1B
Gate A: 1Y in 1B out
Gate B: 1B in 1G 1Y out
Gate C: 1G in 1Y out
Gate D: 1Y in 1B out (unlocks Gate E)
Gate E: 1G in 2Y 1B out
Gate F: 1R in 1Y out
Gate G: 2G in 2R 1G out
To next area: 1R or 1G in 1G 1Y out
Gate H: 1R in 2B out
Gate I: 1Y in 2B out
Gate J: 1Y in 1B 1G out
Gate K: 2G in 2G 1B out
Gate L: 1Y in 1R out
(gates that gave the same key as their door weren't counted, nor was the long one)
Going by this:
Gate B. 2G 2Y
Gate G. 1G 2Y 2R
Next area. 2G 3Y 1R
Gate J. 3G 2Y 1B 1R
Gate K. 3G 2Y 2B 1R
All gates with green key profit have been taken! 3G out of 4G neccesary to reach the exit. Now what?
Problem: To get a red key for the left half I need to go through a door that takes two green keys (and gives one back). Either way I'm spending a green key.
I took the red key from mid-way through the door to the exit. Although this level is far from over at that point.
And damn you Genisto for making a simple fun addicting game for me to play! ;-)

I'm currently stuck on Level 13. I can get the first red key and a second one without getting trapped by doors
Any hints on how to get either a blue or green key without getting trapped by doors or stuck in an infinite arrow loop?
I liked the puzzle, though I hate memorizing the maps...
BTW, is it possible to play again past levels w/o having to delete the save file?
Also, wouldn't be a good idea to have a table score of each level to see who can pass it faster?
Tip for Level 12:
There is something to do with the first rock.
Tip for Level 13:
Try moving before getting stuck.
Answer of the first question:
You can do it by doing back up of the save. (Do a back up at the beginning of each Level)
Answer of the second question:
Yes, I can do it, but I must warn you all: if I do an update, your save will no longer work, because of some automatic process of Game Maker related to the script to save the game. If you are agree, I will create my own save game script, do the score table and do something to enable you to restart preview levels.
But don't forget, I would like to know the score of the first attempt of everyone to know who is the best puzzler.
Yeah, level 12 was rather difficult. Level 13 wasn't too bad once I closed every program I had running other than King of Puzzle. Level 18, however, makes me cry as I stare blankly at the screen (exaggeration).
Beat or restart the level, flagitious. The Level Number flashes on the screen when you first start a level.
(working on level 22 and getting dangerously close to the three-hour mark)

About Super Mario Plus: I will publish it soon: I want to do some update on it before.
About Super Mario 3 glitches run: I don't know what to do, because there are many random desynchro right now.
Mmm, I deleted the game 'cause I downloaded it at school, then I tried to run again & didn't worked anymore. So I'd tried to download it again, but it doesn't work anymore...
Note: It's really, really annoying that the game automatically overwrites the save when you don't resume the save.
It's also really, really annoying that the game defaults the resume save to "no"
I was on level 21 at 2:15. ;_;
