Befuddle Quest 3: Love is a Four-Legged Word

So I'm making a MDF for the summer. This thing will be open starting now until the end of August. Multiple submissions are allowed (and encouraged!).

Welcome to Map Design Fun #10 - Befuddle Quest 3: Love is a Four-Legged Word, the third (and final?) installment of the collaborative puzzle/maze game community project. Using a specific product, RPG Maker 2003, we will each make a single map puzzle using RTP OR your own supplied graphics (that mesh with RTP) and I will link them together in a quest. Why RM2k3? Because it's accessible to the majority of people and because it's pretty easy to link maps together using it. Plus, I'm running the show and that's what I use (because I'm old). Also, that's what we used last time and it worked out okay. Plus, I need to lure GRS back to the darkside.

The twist in BQ3 is that YOU MAY SUBMIT MULTIPLE PUZZLES and IT WILL BE OPEN ALL SUMMER.

STORY ::..
Ah, Zack and Broomhilda are united at last. The happy Baron and Frau von Niddly have given the young happy couple their blessing, and everyone was happy. Happiness ensued.

...until the Duke of Earl showed up.

Duke Drake Marquis of Earl (a.k.a. "Drake the Rake") has arrived to claim the beautiful Broomhilda as his bride, as per the marriage arrangements made between the Baron and Drake's father Vlad (a.k.a. "Vlad the Cad") years and years ago. With the Niddlys powerless to stop the powerful Duke, Drake absconds with Broomhilda down a secret corridor in the Befuddling tower! Oh no!

Our beloved hero now must pursue the Dastardly Duke Drake the Rake through the tower once more and rescue his sweet sweetheart while completing confounding conundrums. Zack's puzzle solving skills will be put to the test once again!


SUBMISSION ::..
Before the deadline on August 23rd, 2009 @ Midnight, zip or rar up your project, upload it somewhere and send me a link to the file (either in a PM or here in this thread). Make as many puzzles as you like.

Please include with your submission:

• The RM2k3 project
  
• The coordinates of the ENTRANCE and EXIT points on the map
  
• Puzzle name
  
• A brief description of the puzzle
  
• A detailed walkthrough (in hide tags or in a PM)
  
• Puzzle difficulty
  
• Any special notes or issues you think I need to know to link the map into the game
  

I'm not opposed to using extra music, sounds, pictures, chipsets or charsets, as long as it fits with RTP (and they're included with the submission). If you have special tileset rules, let me know.


NOTES ::..
As before, this game will be about the puzzles, but feel free to take the story in bold new directions!

Also, feel free to use any variables or switches you like - I will reset them to 0/OFF between each puzzle.


Remember the deadline for your submission is August 23rd, 2009 @ Midnight!
