The Escher Trap

Description
'Maurits Cornelis Escher' glared bright and bold on the ticket in your hands. Art Galleries were enchanting places full of vibrant colours and patterns that sucked the viewer into new realities, but this particular gallery seemed to call to you, the artist's glossed and silvery name staring back at you whenever you glanced down at the gaudy slip.
Escher's work dealt with worlds where typical physical rules didn't apply, where the real and unreal shuffled and danced alongside one-another. Though this gallery would only contain tribute work and replicas, you had to see it all for yourself; you had to be sucked into these worlds firsthand!

Although, having said that, you find that one particular submission seems to take such a metaphor far too literally.

Wow, you put sooooo much work into it. I created one relatively small room and the editor is so not user-friendly that you need to use strange tricks all the time to make it work one way or another so it took me like 40 hours to finish it. A room your size needed probably 500 hours or so? Wow, but you did a great job, very good and complex from A to Z. Original and long. Thanks for that!

Loved this game! I really liked how the puzzles were generally logic and/or able to be worked out within the puzzle itself.

The only one I needed help with was the mirror/chess room. I couldn't work out which elements were important to make it work, and I couldn't find the word with the mirror after getting the board sorted, either.

The rest of the puzzles were brilliant. Thanks very much!

Great Idea and grat concept. Some puzzles are great. ButtThe chess room wat not makeable due to i could't get close enough to see things properly in the crumbled room. Everything was to small. The mirror thing with the book wasn't seable for me even with the spoilers. And i couldn't move suddenly anymore during the keys and saves puzzle. I was somehow captured within a save door i guess. I had to quit the room unfortunately.
All in all a nice room, but it had its frustrating moments whinch could beimproved.

This room has major performance issues. I couldn't even start working on the first puzzle before it started slowing down on me.

@LEO ran into an issue where you can remove a key and still walk into the area where keys change its layout, and ended up locking myself in

@mefisto, which passcode isn't flipping correctly in a mirror? If you comment on the walkthrough with the issue, I can update it as needed.
mefisto57001 17 Jun, 2023 @ 4:30pm 
it is awful that the round key counts as one and not as zero

also the mirror should be installed in the different axis to flip the pass-code properly, give your players a chance!
