If you choose to continue working on this one, I have an idea which you might want to consider: optional rules! E.g. add a rule 25 saying \"A must be next to B\" OR \"C must be next to D\" and the player can complete the level by adhering to one (or both) of them.","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":1000579,"author_name":"Jesse J.
