Pushmo/Pullblox |OT| of pushing, pulling and QR codes

There is an actual updated version of the game in the eShop.

Oh. I did not know that!

Curious then that when I check for updates to my downloaded titles it says that there are none available. I haven't had a message about it either. How am I supposed to know unless I correspond with gamer nerds online?!

Thanks sir, I'll check it out :).

Surely that must be for the USA version only, because I sure as hell don't see any updates for Pullblox, the european version.

Pullblox, Freakyforms and Zen Pinball all got updates a week or two ago. I distinctively remember updating them manually from the DE store.

Two copies sold? That's not a bomb guys, stop trolling!!!
The challenge 194 is really frustrating me. I think I'm just near the solution, but every time I try, nothing! So challenging indeed! Helps? :D
 
Just cleared 175, and i'm feeling good about my skills & hitting the nasties in the 190's people are talking about! BRING IT ON!
Just shy of 12 hours game time too.. that's more than i've played SM3DL or MK7 and i've only had this 4 days. I wonder what that says about the value/price proposition of them all...
Doesn't look likely at this point, but i would have loved to read an Iwata Asks on this game!
 
Worked out the solution to 192 but I'd done it on the wrong half. :(

Wait no I didn't. What the hell?

Update: I had done it after all, but forgot the basics at the top.

When I unlocked the puzzle maker, my first thought was to make a phallus themed puzzle. I can't be the only one to have thought that? Right? :S
You have low aspirations. Once again: goatmo.cx (vaguely NSFW and all that, you know what to expect).

I've been told by a few that I forgot the ring. I'm sorry I'm not as intimately familiar with the picture as some of you may be.

To my fellows in the 19X puzzles, some hints:

1) Negative space. Learn how to see and how to use it.

2) Some blocks are better left unpushed.

3) Yes, you can do that jump.

Does anyone know how to solve this?

I'm also stuck here :(

I just figured this out a few days ago

Pull out the larger magenta block by 1
Pull out the the light pink block by 2
Side pull the inner magenta block by 3
Pull out the light blue block (either side is fine) by 1
Jump onto the inner magenta block and push the light pink block all the way back
Jump onto the larger magenta block and work your way to the top of the inner magenta block
Pull out the light pink block by 2

It's so...easy. I...I'm feeling so stupid right now :( I had the solution under my eyes, but no, nothing. And now, number 198, I'm all yours.

Does anybody else itch for a pushmo/pullblox sequel/spin-off featuring guest characters?

Well... I just solved it, but now I'll have to work out how.

I can tell you there are no tricks to it, and the last colour before black is

edit: full order:

I finally managed to grab this. Since I have a US 3DS and Nintendo have stopped allowing me to use my foreign credit card to purchase, had to go via ordering a digital credit 3DS thingy via play-asia. Curse you Nintendo!

Though I am very happy. Picross 3D might get notched off its lofty perch of being my favourite puzzler and Pushmo is replacing it. Mallmo is already one of my favourite characters Nintendo have created and he needs to star in everything.

Finished the main game! Had to check a walkthrough for one or two challenges, but all in all I managed better than I thought :) In the end it always was a jump I didn't notice I could make or something of the sort.

On to the bonus stages! (which are really easy so far).

Also just noticed I played this game longer than SM3DL and most other games I own, it's just so good >.>

Pushmo Smash Bros. Stage, where we are little and we can be trapped in the blocks. Think at the possibilities.
 
A question about creating Pushmo.....

I've had the game a bit longer than my boyfriend who just bought it and I tried creating a Pushmo for him to QR Code and play but it says he needs to power up his studio.

Now I knew this might happen so I used no ladders or any extra stuff and tried to make the Pushmo relatively small as I just unlocked the bigger canvas myself.

How can I make a Pushmo that he'll be able to download, I see no parameters as to what is a Pushmo that's too big.....

Thank you!

That's annoying, I'd wondered if there was a limitation like that.

This is only a guess but try starting a new one from a blank slot and select 'Copy', choose 'from Papa Blox', and place the flag on it.
If the default ones don't work then I am out of ideas! These are all maximum of 16x16 in the centre of the grid.

Downloaded this a couple days ago, I'm in love. It's just oozing with charm, and it's the best use of the 3D slider yet. I'm still working on the Pushmo park levels, and they're a blast, can't wait to check out the user levels in this thread afterwards. It's everything you want from a downloadable game, simple and easy to grasp but content rich and addictive.
 
I just finished 105. This game is wonderful! Some of the puzzles are so simple when you look at the pattern, but the ways it forces you to think somehow feels. It's more than just one "aha" moment, but many of them connected. I guess you could say portal has that sort of thing as well.
 
This game is so good and such great value, it's making me double-take on whether i should get PSVita when it's out (for Wipeout initially).
I mean, AU $9... versus $450-ish for Vita, memory card & a game i'm unlikely to get as much out of compared to this.
Sure a new console is an investment in multiple games over its life, but damn if it doesn't seem like i'd have to be insane to spend that much money when such awesome can be had for so much less. The plight of the devoted gamer addicted to new tech smell :(

The QR functionality is so impressive. I thought QR codes were a gimmick because they are only ever used for hotlinking to websites. But if you can store information to recreate custom levels instantly through a photo...damn. Bravo.
 
Ok, that's too bad, I thought there would be an algorithm which would do that for you.

EDIT : I was just messing with the puzzle editor, I created this, it's really easy, I figured I would just post it here :

Game is amazing and I am horrible at spacial thinking (like, bottom 80 percentile) but having a blast and can feel myself getting better and better.

At No 59 (Challenge 2-5) right now/
 
I think first you need to find a way to get the lowest 2x1 purple block out by 2.

Edit: actually there's another solution I just found which doesn't involve pulling out either of those 2x1 purple blocks.

Thanks! Did you finish it?
Yep. You've used some techniques found in the last segments of the game, and that makes it very enjoyable, while still not as stumping as some of those 190's. I thoroughly enjoyed it (moreover that I needed a break from a debug session).

Good to hear! I might try and make a few more then.
