Status: Complete. Potentially add slight changes to better represent the standard for fractions.
=====Map Level=====
=====Map Level=====
A map of the area is shown and the player must identify the coordinates where the tower is located.

Status: Complete. Possibly make it so times are only in increments of 5 minutes, to be slightly easier/less confusing

The player must find the "password" to the tower by solving math problems which are presented. The password consists of eight digits, and the questions specify which digits the answer should go in. Once each of the digits of the password are entered correctly the tower can be entered.

This is a platforming styled level where the main objective is to control the hero to climb up a tower. The hero is holding a number which is modified by hitting operations falling on the screen ("x2", "+5", etc), and each floor of the tower contains one or more "gaps" for the hero to travel through with numbers or mathematical problems on either side. You can only travel upwards when the number the hero is controlling is between the two values on either side of the gaps.

Status: Concept in works, not much coding done yet.
===Resources/References===
=====3D Maze Level=====
Explore a maze while answering questions, answer properly to go the right way
Status: Concept and some coding completed, needs graphics work.
=====Water Race Level=====
Race across the water, answering questions correctly increases your speed.
Status: Graphics engine mostly complete, math question aspect needs to be implemented.
