elarel download

v1.2
elarel 1.2 is now available for download. This version features four new fun levels as well as a large number of bug fixes. The game now has a total of 30 levels. Please, if you find any bug, or have any comments about a level, let us know on the game forums at campbelljc.com/elarel/forums. Thanks!
Full changes are as follows:
Levels
* Four new levels with new types of puzzles (levels 8, 9, 10 and 13).
* Replaced the bottom-right puzzle in level 21 (The Reflecting Rooms) with a better one, and made various changes throughout the level to make it less finicky.
* Reorganized levels for a better difficulty curve.
* Fixed a bug in level 24 (The Frozen Archipelago) that made it unsolvable (due to a change in mechanics from v1.1). (Thanks to Nisa.)
* Fixed a bug in level 26 (Steppin' out over the line) that made it unsolvable (due to a bug from v1.1). (Thanks to Nisa.)
* Fixed a bug in level 29 (Her Last Bow) that made it unsolvable (due to a bug from v1.1).
* An internal system was implemented to automatically ensure solvability of all levels and user levels before release.
* Small changes made to levels 30 (The Old Laboratory) and user level 12 (Tricks 'n Traps) to support the updated object mechanics of this version.
* Level 13 of previous version ("Gravity") moved to user level category.
* Five levels are now unlocked by default instead of four.
Object mechanics
* Objects can now be pushed onto rafts, and spiders can move onto them.
* Carts will now touch neighbouring balls, arrows, and balloons while moving past them.
* An object going through a conveyor belt will now try to push any object in its way in the belt.
* If there is an object at the exit of a conveyor belt, any object going through the belt will try once to push the object and any objects in front of that object.
* Blackballs can now be directed by fast-forwards even if they would move in a direction contrary to gravity (except exactly opposite).
* Carts can no longer fall down holes if the cart contains a treasure chest.
Graphics
* If a slanted wall is diagonally adjacent to a door, the tiles will now seamlessly connect.
* If a laser beam hits into a closed door, the beam will now continue until the edge of the door.
* Fixed a bug where a drawbridge would not face the proper direction, depending on neighbouring tiles.
* Fixed a bug where a dangling laser beam would remain if a laser was toggled and the new beam hit the player.
* Fixed a bug where a laser on a cart that is destroyed in a hole would not remove its associated laser beams.
* Updated some death animations in the Halloween tileset for a more consistent look.
* Objects being pushed by a conveyor belt or fast-forward and who are not in their initial object state will now always maintain their correct image during animation.
Misc. bug fixes
* The player will now correctly interact with the ground square after moving to pick up a chest or other board object.
* Conveyor belts can no longer be pushed offscreen.
* Fixed a bug on Windows where a 'not responding' dialog would temporarily display during long conveyor belt/fast-forward sequences.
* More accurate detection of infinite movement loops (fixed a false positive).
* Fixed a bug where clicking on an ice square would make the game unresponsive.
* Fixed a crash that occurred when a group of blackballs fell together with gravity horizontal.
* Fixed a rare bug that sometimes improperly loaded levels with object connections.
* Fixed several bugs with level solution loading.
* Fixed an improper memory handling issue that occurred when picking up a pickaxe.
Other
* Editor now has a wider toolbar to remove the need to scroll down to see more objects.
* The lever toggle sound will now only play if the player has toggled it.
* The 'bump' sound that plays when a player tries to move into something that can't be moved is now played more consistently.
