Well it is unbeatable if you don't know/figure out the trick :P

I believe I also beat it at once but its been a long time.

I beat "A Puzzle" by circulating around a bit until the parts were sort of tangled up, then just moving up and down the left side while firing at the cross end of the core. It was tedious, but it worked, so I didn't try figuring out if there was a more clever trick to it.
"Ultimate defense 2" on the other hand has me completely stumped. What am I missing? Could you give me a hint? Message me if you don't want to say it in public.
Also, how in the world did you do that resizing level? Is there some sort of undocumented z-axis rotation feature or something? I wish I had more time to play with the editor, especially now that MD gave us the features I'd been asking for. Seems like some of you all have been doing some really slick stuff with it lately.

I can give you the "source code" of the resizing level. It is in the tutorial category after all.
You can do other stuff with that one too. For example you could make the parts move any way you want.

Well, since Mouzi revealed the secret, I'll post a level that further demonstrates the mechanics going on:

According to the statistics, Ultimate Defence 2 has only been beat one time. And I'm guessing that was by Mouzi. Care to share the trick? I've poked and prodded it for 10 minutes and don't see any signs of a vulnerability. Whatever the trick is, it's a really good oneMouzi wrote:Well it is unbeatable if you don't know/figure out the trick
On a different note, In reference to the expanding cores, I noticed a difference between the functionality of Mouzi's Resizing (example) and Sethum's Scale and Sprites. When I examine Mouzi's level, I get killed if I touch ANY part of the core. In Sethum's level, I can safely move inside most areas of the expanding cores, and don't get whacked until I move to the right side of the "head". Just an observation.

It's because of the "sprite trick". If the counterparts are offscreen they become solid. If they are all visible you can go through.
