"Did you do it? Did you solve all five levels? Did you find it easy? Would you like to design a level 6 puzzle for Transum? If so it should be a little harder than level 5 but the same size grid (the car park) and the same size cars. Look forward to hearing from you."

"Hi! I completed the five levels and do wish there was a sixth one. Have you seen the game Parking Panic? It is similar to this, but has all different sizes for the cars. Perhaps you could look into that. I also think you could designate the amount of moves you can make as an extra challenge in the upper levels.
Thanks for designing these AWESOME games!"

[Transum: Thanks very much for sharing Mrs Campbell. That is better than the solution I had. Keep up the good work Grade 8!]"
