Puzzle 58 - Polycubeous 3

Hey, it's me, Polycubeous!  Remember me?

...so, I had this idea of making a two-layered Polycubeous puzzle a while ago, but when I started doing it I messed up really badly.  I recently decided to try again.  Now, I have created a masterpiece monster.  This puzzle is insanely hard.  I usually hate puzzles of this difficulty, but then I ended up making one by accident.  Oh well.

Oh yeah, also, the solid gray lines are there just as a reference when you're in the more middle parts of the grid.  They have no relevance to the actual puzzle whatsoever.  There are only two levels to this puzzle.

Puzzle 57 - Polyominous 12

I made this puzzle a little bit differently than usual for Polyominous.  I usually make the pattern of givens before the rest of the puzzle, but this time I just made things as I felt like then mirrored the rest to make it symmetrical, and out came this.  I might do this more often.

Edit: Well, looks like we're playing Spot the Asymmetry again.  Oh well.

Puzzle 56 - Slitherlink 10

Let's play checkers!

...again.

Puzzle 55 - Polyominous 11

Let's play Checkers!

Puzzle 54 - Logic of Life 3

Puzzle 53 - Straight and Arrow 5

Puzzle 52 - Room and Reason 5

I have to go to bed now, so the other two puzzles will wait until later.

Puzzle 51 - Process of Illumination 4

So, over a 10-hour car drive I made several puzzles...

First is a Process of Illuminati Illumination with a very specific theme.  Can you figure it out?

Puzzle 50 - Boxing Match 4

It's puzzle 50!  To celebrate, here's a really big Boxing Match.

I feel like this type puzzle has so much potential to be really great, but I'm not the best at making puzzles and since I've never actually solved any of these that others have made it's even harder.  There were a few parts in this one where I was thinking, "Why can't I always make these puzzles like this?"  Hopefully some others (who are actually good at this) will start making these.

Also, this puzzle is a lot harder than my other Boxing Matches.  Be warned.

Puzzle 49 - Logic of Life 2

 Making original types of logic puzzles is hard.  Because I have no experience solving these, I found a bunch of mistakes.  I had to test solve this thing four or five times before it was finally finished.

Hey, look at what puzzle number is next...  I wonder what type of puzzle it will be...

Puzzle 48 - Logic of Life 1

Once you wrap your mind around the rules, I think this puzzle type is actually really interesting.  I hope you do too.

Rules - Logic of Life

Logic of Life is an original logic puzzle I created.  It's name, for once, is original!  (even if it is just mixing up "logic puzzle" and "game of life"...)

1. Make each cell white or black.

2. No two black cells may share an edge.

3. All white cells must be connected to each other through their edges.

4. The completed puzzle will be generation 1 of a pattern in Conway's Game of Life, with black cells being live cells and white cells being dead cells.  The edges act like dead cells.

5. All cells with an O in it must be alive in generation 2.

6. All cells with an X in it must be dead in generation 2.

7. All cells with a ? in it must be different in generation 1 than in generation 2.

If you don't understand Conway's Game of Life, here's an alternate telling of the rules (when I mention the cells "around" another cell, I am talking about the eight cells orthogonally and diagonally adjacent to that cell):

1. Make each cell white or black.

2. No two black cells may share an edge.

3. All white cells must be connected to each other through their edges.

4. A white cell with an O must have three black cells around it.

5. A black cell with an O must have two or three black cells around it.

6. A white cell with an X must have zero, one, two, or four black cells around it.

7. A black cell with an X must have zero, one, or four black cells around it.

8. A white cell with a ? must have three black cells around it.

9. A black cell with a ? must have zero, one, or four black cells around it.
