Well I'm glad to hear someone's in a similar situation.
I'd be glad to try your levels too!

I've got the level even closer to completion now, with just a few minor adjustments to item and enemy placement, and one pinball sequence left to go. I'll warn anybody who bothers to read this, my design style (which reflects my playing style) is far from heavy on puzzles, which seem to be popular with other designers. Just so everyone knows, this is a preference not a "flaw".
