Yup guys! Hairy43, you get +50 for middle balances. It's because in earlier Perfect Balance games people just tried to drop everything very fast and hope that the result would stabilize. Here we want to reward you for keeping the pile stable as much as possible. ;) More stable more often is better...
Terp101, if you pick up smaller shapes then the mouse cursor hides a big part of the shape graphics. If you want to do pixel perfect placement (like those real pros want, I've heard) then hiding the mouse cursor helps a lot.
MelikaneL32, thanks for the great review! And yes, we hoped to add replayability to the game with those diamonds. Come back later to a puzzle you've already solved and you might find a better solution for all those diamonds. ;)
flkings, I just got back home, and now the cursor is fixed - if you press r to reset the level the mouse cursor will appear again. It's still autohided when you pick up a shape, because people requested such feature so they can place the shapes with greater accuracy as the mouse doesn't hide the shape graphics any more.
Oops, sorry guys, don't restart the level while you are moving a shape. I'm on the move so cannot fix that bug until I get back home. Please wait for four hours...
brenm666, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diamond - Color: Typically yellow, brown or gray to colorless. Less often blue, green, black, translucent white, pink, violet, orange, purple and red. ;)
Gozo, your solutions are then superior. When I first played through the game I got something like 350 diamonds... ;) And yes, packs C+ are harder than A & B.
Thanks, urmelhelble! ;) Still the game might be a bit too difficult for some of the players, but at least we tried. And it's fun to see people getting better solutions to levels than we makers of the game could imagine.
