Interesting! Not hard, it would be great to see the feature trick as part of a bigger puzzle - just a few red herrings here would amplify the cleverness of it. It would also be great to know why it works in this one!

The slider obviously changes the dynamic affecting the claustrophobia effect - but how exactly?

It is actually in another of my levels, which hasn't had a lot of people posting about solving it yet. That's the problem with new ideas... even if something is in plain sight, someone will miss its significance if they don't know to look for it.

Yes, this level is easy once someone finds the solution. It's finding the solution though which apparently is the challenge.

I understand your dilemma. So do you think it might encourage people to look deeper, if you posted a clue of some sort with the puzzles that seem overlooked?

Also - you said you used this effect in another puzzle, but haven't mentioned which one or (even better) provided a link to it. If you did, do you think that might make a difference? Cos I know I for one would instantly go and check it out.

@trids, and others who might be interested...

Two other levels which incorporate the same mechanism are mystery island and incomplete.
