That's what I do, but jumping out of the hole is difficult, and getting into them can also be difficult.

Jump into the hole when the spiky thing rolls at you and time it well, so you jump above it and land when it's already passed.
For me, timing is the hard part. Also, you don't have to aim like you do when you walk over the hole, just keep moving to the right and holding the jump key and you'll jump into the hole on your right.

I'll try that.  I get the strategy behind it, its just hard to execute.

Thats the biggest problem I have with the puzzles right now (or at least the ones released) Even though I can get the concept behind them, it takes near perfect precision to pull it off.  I think the puzzles should be more focused on logical and puzzle elements than pixel perfect precision

I have to agree with BuilderBoy actually. It's hard to make a level that's hard yet doesn't require pixel-perfectness. When I make levels I try to allow a little bit of leeway for the player, but it's often quite difficult to pull off.
Level three is an example of a level I didn't allow any leeway with. Levels one and two in the demo I consider reasonable, however, with level one a little less so than level two.

Exodus has very, very pixel perfect precision.  I guess it's just a basic game. ;)

I don't know if anyone has already mentioned this, but I found some "Glitches"

Watch the *very* long screenie, some levels, I can just get to the goal a bit too easily?  Maybe add a block or something to prevent it?

#1, that's the old demo.
#2, in most of those, the actual solutions are easy than the hackish ones.

#2 sounds like the same justification Valve used for some of the ninja solutions to Portal levels ;)

My favorite ninja solution in Portal was the one where the exit was right in front of the entrance, and by putting three portals you could solve the puzzle is less than 7 seconds xD

The hackish solutions would make a nice TAS of this game. :D  Kinda like those Portal ones. :D

Development is now confirmed on hiatus until I figure out how to compile this thing (It always gives me ERR: BLOCK, even though I got each and every source program and subprogram from leafiness0)

Development is now confirmed on hiatus until I figure out how every single function, subroutine, subprogram, and other stuff works.

Graviter is back under development. I fixed the problem - no idea how, though, but phenomist is now resuming completing the game.
