Rocks and Diamonds : Conveyor Belt 2
So moving on with designing levels. This is a slightly more involved example of what is possible.
But it does show what is possible with a little planning etc.
Sometimes, it is useful to also sketch out what you would like from a level. This also helps with the design process.

Rocks and Diamonds : Conveyor Belt 1
A conveyor belt can be very useful, move objects towards you, or away for example. They are also a cool way to add a challenge your level.
A basic example
With a slightly more advanced example here
So you need to move the rocks to get to the key.

Rocks and Diamonds : Bombs
So by now you have got the general idea. To expand on Dynamite, there are also bombs. These explode when either dropped or have something dropped on them (e.g a rock)
So here I have already added some more wall and to add to the puzzle element you need to drop the rock on to the bomb. Timing here is important.
As with dynamite, a bomb will destroy the 8 squares around it when detonated.
As an extension to this, lets go the other way round and drop a rock on a bomb, see what happens and fix any issues that come from this.
From this, you see why testing is important. But also making sure you are not making it too easy for the player.

Rocks and Diamonds : Doors and Keys
So on to, doors and keys. In this video I add a wall, a door and a key.
As you can see you need the right key / door combination. So during testing I have found that
So had to go back and make a minor change to this
So this highlights why you need to keep testing. I have left this in, rather than creating the perfect video with no errors.
I also got killed by a falling gem, so again, left this in.
