I think we all get a little bit distracted from the main topicstarter's theme

My good friend Ryan_K92 has downloaded the Home Theme and managed to get to be a Beta Tester, i've owned one of the first PS3's in Europe and i am also a big user but I only found out about the Home Theme download AFTER it just went offline.

Usually not paid. What you're looking for are "Quality Assurance" jobs for those that pay any decent amount. Search monster.com, computerjobs.com, etc.

Hey, jarp53 -

Can you tell me what operating system you're using?  Windows 7?  Like you, I don't like Steam to load at startup, so I disabled it from the Steam menu at Settings -> Interface -> Uncheck "Run Steam when my computer starts".  I then launch Steam any time I play a game that I purchased from Steam.

I know that the Steam guys are always trying to make it easier for players to move around icons and play the game when Steam isn't active, but it sounds like they still have some progress to make.  If you had Steam create an icon for Cogs on your desktop when you first installed it, you should be able to move that shortcut to a new location without any problems.  This worked for me with no problems in Windows XP.  If you look at the details of the shortcut, it should appear to be a Web shortcut with the following URL: steam://rungameid/26500

I'm not using Windows 7, but my understanding is that there is a separate games browser.  I don't know if Steam supports adding games to this list, but you can definitely add a shortcut to your start menu.

If you created a shortcut in your start menu or on your desktop and you want to delete it, you should be able to delete it just like any other file -- by pressing the delete key or dragging it to the trash.

There are some big advantages to buying from Steam -- your games are always up-to-date with the latest patch and they'll follow you seamlessly to any computer where you login to your Steam account.  But if you don't want to deal with Steam, you can also purchase the game DRM-free from Direct2Drive, GamersGate or Impulse.

Nice job, I'm glad to see my editor get some use.  I was thinking I had spent all that effort on nothing!

Your first level is great, but your second is a little annoying because of how many moves you have to make when you want to rotate everything around the center, and how crowded it is.  It's really good for a start though.  I look forward to more

If you have any questions about the editor, feel free to ask.

[Edit:]

As Notgreat did, I'm starting this topic to upload and update my levels. These are the first two. Actually I didn't include my very first level because I think it's too easy. They have been scrambled for all modes and I think I've made they more or less challenging.

Thanks to Notgreat for his editor, it was very helpful for doing this puzzles.

To install the pack extract it to data folder.

Edit:
Now there is one more in the pack.

Intel is lobbying me pretty hard to produce a netbook version.  So it's in the queue.  But since I'm just one guy, I suspect it's still at least six months away from becoming a reality unless I can hire another programmer to do the work.  Between my consulting work, updates to the iPhone/iPad versions and work on my new game concept, it just doesn't leave enough time in the day.

Hey,

I'll add my two cents. When I saw the teaser video I was hooked. I downloaded the demo and tried to run the game. I've got an Eee PC 1005. The game opened, but I couldn't get past the menu screen before it froze.

It'd be nice if I could play the game, it looks really awesome.
