Fun puzzle!

here's my solution

http://kevan.org/rubicon/game.php?level=Fomidis

P.S.  How do you do a hyperlink that is just the name of the file?

[Lazyone]

duvuram is my solution

[jnz]

P.S.  How do you do a hyperlink that is just the name of the file?

There's an icon in the toolbar (the question mark crate) that will turn the name of a level into a link to that level.

[Daniel Nilsson]

My solution: cymudug

[Hand-E-Food]

That was a challenge.  You took away my pipes!  nupitox

[jf]

Those are great solutions, much different and more elegant than my original solution: vugygup. Now I'm back to the drawing board for a second creation.

[FL4WL3SS]

Here is my solution to KIRUFYD

samityb

-FL4WL3SS

[20eight]

cool solution, JF.  Here's mine (a lot like Lazyone): besexol

[jf]

Here is my second puzzle. I have been working for some time on a solution, and hit a dead end. But, I do have a solution for the left side, and since Daniel Nilsson's Key Communication puzzles have solutions (I have not had a chance to try those yet and have not actually seen any solutions), I am posting this before working out the entire solution myself. I'll be working on it after trying the Key Communication puzzles first.

Cleanroom ximacad

Solution to left side: ponid -- oops I seem to have left two letters out of the level name

[jf]

Cleanroom is solved! I just could not put it down. Yesterday I was driving behind a green-recycle dump truck on a small residential street. Looking at this big green square moving ahead of me, with diagonal pattern of flashing lights, all I could think of is Rubicon. Should I thank you or curse you for this great game? 

I would really like to hear of any attempts to solve Cleanroom -- IMHO it's a tough cookie. I created the puzzle first, with a general idea of how to solve it, debugged it a bit, and then, I went forward and attempted a solution. Some of the mechanisms just manage to squeeze into the available space, but I did not retrofit the puzzle to fit the solution.

Here is my solution, which took very hard work to find: harocod

[Lazyone]

VERY NICE!  i must say that is impressive in my opinion

[jnz]

Space is really at a premium in Cleanroom: zynetam

[jf]

Wow, jnz, very cool. You've made some very interesting tricks work in such a confined environment. Very nice, I should say, excellent.

[20eight]

Holy cow, cleanroom took me like seven hours.  Oddly enough, the right side was harder for me to work out (probably because my brain was fried by the time I finished the left side).

Awesome, awesome puzzle, JF.  Of the one's that I've completed, it was the most challeging/intriguing.  Cool solutions - both you and JNZ.
