The guide was completed years ago, but Ceegers (talk · contribs) has put the finishing touches on it. I think this one only needs a spit shine to make it into our elite. --Notmyhandle (talk contribs) 07:12, 31 July 2012 (UTC)

Thanks :) The advanced and challenges sections (Chambers 13-18) still need adjusting, which I will be getting to soon. I'm also thinking that an additional appendix page Advanced Techniques would be a good idea. In a game like this, it is absolutely impossible to describe every way to complete a puzzle, and the developers intended it as such, but advanced techniques could be an excellent place to describe methods that may help in various chambers. This could also include some general hints for how to decrease portals, steps, and time in the challenges. I'm also good friends with one of the glitch masters of this game, so I can get a ton of info on them, which could be included, but I am somewhat inclined to not include glitches (however... at what point something becomes a glitch as opposed to being part of the game is debatable in this case).

One last thought... looks like the guide's supposed to have no red links... which I guess means something would have to be created for Narbacular Drop and Portal (Commodore 64)? Seems like a weird requirement, since those really have nothing to do with this game... -- Ceegers (talk) 10:37, 31 July 2012 (UTC)

The red link requirement is for subpages, however, I saw those two and will probably fill them in today. --Notmyhandle (talk contribs) 15:06, 31 July 2012 (UTC)

I'll change to support once there are no more section stubs (Chambers 17 & 18) and the formatting problems are fixed. Also, you might want to include pictures of all the cameras/radios for people that have trouble interpreting the text versions. The Walkthrough page also needs pictures. My last (and most nitpicky) complaint is that the image names and pictures don't match in Escape 00 and Escape 01. Aside from that, it looks good. YoshiSoy (talk) 16:07, 31 July 2012 (UTC)

Yoshi, Walkthrough has been expanded, please review once more. As far as challenges 17 and 18 go, I agree that they need to be filled out. --Notmyhandle (talk contribs) 23:06, 31 July 2012 (UTC)
Radio pictures linked from achievement page. New Camera Shy achievement page added, with galleries of all the camera pictures. As nmh said, walkthrough expanded. Fixed image names from Escape pages.
Which leaves advanced/challenges, which as I mentioned, I'll get to, and formatting, which nmh seems to be doing. And as mentioned, maybe an Advanced Techniques page. -- Ceegers (talk) 06:39, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
It looks really good now YoshiSoy (talk) 13:09, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
