I love the way it just falls apart.
4-10 makes my braincells burst.
it doesn't even look complicated....
gonna stop for now. i'm always better when i only play a few levels and stop when i hit a wall and re try the next day.
it's definitly one of this games.
yes.
i've stopped getting the spotpass note after the sixth (?) time. thanks nintendo, you've shown me that your interwebs stuff works!

Just downloaded this... oh god the tutorial levels are tricky I'm very afraid of the main puzzles
I wrote a review, if anyone is interested.
Actually, I've been stumped to a similar degree on many different levels including early tutorial ones.
Usually it needs time and a Eureka moment and you feel stupid for missing it.

Who wants a challenge?
You mad genius! H..how did you make those? I mean how did you make them look like actual sprites but also solvable, with a real challenge?

pun intended?
An hour or so of free time? lol
Thanks for making me feel better (bad day)
I've only played your Super Mushroom level, but I thought it was pretty brilliant. It also took me around half an hour to solve, so I'm kind of scared to try your other levels

Only an hour?
It's going to take me at least half that time to solve it! Well written review as usual! Sums up perfectly my opinion of the game.
Here's my first very easy fallblox:
I can't even pass Challenge 5-10
So, yeah, three days later...
I GOT YOU NOW, MOTHERFUCKER (puzzle solution ahead).
The fucking blue box. I spent almost two hours wandering around that crashmo and didn't think of using the fucking blue block. A day after the last time I tried it, bam, I picked up the game and solved that shit in 2 minutes. Fuck.

Yeah, it's crazy how sometimes the easiest solution will be there and you refuse or don't think of trying it because THIS IS CRASHMO and it can't be that simple... yet it is!
Added all your QR codes to the OT guys. Keep 'em coming!

The next SpotPass puzzle is up. It's called "Challenge W-1"
oh haha, didn't even notice the Japanese version was posted in the OP already.
It's so easy.
for real, easier than some of the tutorials even
Getting better at the game now, even though I didn't do any of the optional tutorials yet. I sort of had an 'oh snap' moment where everything just sort of clicked and I started blowing through puzzles. I had a similar experience with Pushmo, where it just took a while for my brain to adapt.

I had a somewhat difficult time with the latter Pushmo puzzles, so I'm wary of picking this up based on the trailer.

Since the Pushmo OT is kinda dead i might as well ask this here:
Is it possible that those star ratings are not ALWAYS indicative of the level's ACTUAL difficulty?
Meaning this: I easily finished the first couple worlds' 2 star and even 3 star levels in a matter of seconds/minutes without breaking a sweat, however all of a sudden from Level 4-1 onwards (the world after Murals 2 actually) i have only beaten 2 so far and they were both 2 STAR levels, and i was stuck like an HOUR almost with each WTF?
I mean is it me or are these actually super tricky for 2 star levels? They FEEL like 4 stars to me

The stars basically indicate how hard the puzzles are in relation to how far you are in the game.

Dammit I'm terrible. I did all but the last two tutorial levels on my own, but sadly needed help on those. Now I can't do 1-1 or 1-2 without looking online. Ugh
If you need help, do the Training stages by selecting Granpa Mallo at the main menu, the levels there will show you how to solve them, and some of the no brainer moments helped in the main levels.

Thanks, I'll go through some of those as well.

The prototypes are interesting. Makes me feel Nintendo is looking at a larger adventure style game. They weren't good because of the camera but they'd make a fantastic game with the right set up.
oh my god, if Intelligent made some kind of Pushmo/Catherine/3D Dot Game hybrid I would shit my pants
Ugh. This one really has me by the balls. I don't think I've ever been this baffled before.
i'm working on a few actually, but they're just too easy right now
once i finish all my exams and stuff this week i'll have a lot more time to work on them
I feel you there... I wish I could play it more, but this game is hitting at a really rough time in my life, haha. SO much school work...

Wee Fallblox Puzzle from me:
Rant time: It's really bothering me how so many reviews keep mentioning camera control as some sort of massive improvement to the Pushmo/Crashmo gameplay. As if not being able to rotate the sandbox was a detriment to Pushmo -- it just doesn't make any sense for that game. I'll give you zooming, but rotating? Bloody hell.
Making puzzles in Crashmo is a lot tougher than in Pushmo.
It was really easy to just throw together some 2D pixel art and tweak it slightly until the puzzle was solvable in Pushmo. Crashmo demands actual planning...

This one is a direct copy of a Pushmo I made, except that the Pushmo requiring some ladders to complete:
This one is almost more of a logistical problem (where do I put all the pieces?) than a puzzle, lol.
