So both of the Gruntz in Space levels are number 29 or is that an inadvertence?

I also find it interesting how the creator managed to do that many puzzles in just a 20x20 space.

I think I can become the Beta-Tester, at least for the ones in Gruntz in Space, because I know the EyeCandy stuff for this tileset now and I won't have problems in editing if something needs to be changed.

The set seems to have started out as 1 puzzle for each 32 areas, but something happened along the way, and the source templates were not used at some time. The maps dictated what I put in the Announcements.

I completed the level, but I wasn't able to figure out how to get the coin below the fortress. It doesn't seem like there's a secret switch anywhere, so I'm inclined to believe that the coin's placement might be a mistake.

Also, one huge problem is the fact that the starting area has a combination of an enemy boomerang grunt who cannot be defeated in any way other than tediously whittling him down with fists, and the fact that there's an UFO passing over the spot where the player gruntz spawn. If the UFO was passing only over the bridges and the fortress area, and one of the starting gruntz was equipped with boxing gloves, this level would be a lot better.

[Wedrikul]

Well...
Below the fortress there's no coin, i just checked, we might not be talking about the same level...? 
For the boomerang, you can blow him up 
And there are few places where the UFO cant cast the deadray

There really is a coin below the fortress, floating above the void. Maybe you sent GooRoo an old version of the puzzle?

Also, in my opinion the level number in World Properties should be changed to "30" instead of "29", since the level uses the second Warpstone piece and the A letter.

[Wedrikul]

So... Well...
First of all I must admit I had NO IDEA how much work you are putting into those levels, GooRoo...
You are replacing every playable object in the game to fit exactly on the top-left corner of tiles. But there you made a mistake.

The coin we are talking about should be on the breaking-bridge tile (or how is it called) in the bottom right corner.

And I see what you are doing there (probably all the time...) making every shore not that straight... 

I wanted to send comparing PNG image but ProBoards refused to accept it... 

[swietymiki]

That's quite... Surprising?

You can put your image on an external hosting and send a link like I do.

That must be an omitted digit (58, instead of 528), when I was searching for objects. I will fix that.

The corrected version has been uploaded to the web host. Sorry for the error, caused by Gruntz unplayable on this Windows 10 computer, and my attempt to make it playable on the XP computer.

This level definitely deserves an Easy rating. After the fix I was able to get the perfect score: files.fm/u/qv55rr3k/ (statz image)

It's only the beginning part with the boomerang that I found annoying because of his high range and hard to avoid attacks.

I just captured your Statz Page image, and will get it uploaded to the web host shortly. I really would like to have a "View the map!" image as well, if at all possible.
