@evrimzone Yes, they do randomly take paths until they find a parking lot in some nearby node in the navigation graph, then it switches to A* pathfinding. What 'nearby' means, can be configured, or might even be influenced by placing signage pointing to your garage.

Hints to beat the level: - Kill Axolotls to obtain Water Arrows - Using the Water Arrows, kill the Fire enemies to cross the bridges - Once found, pick up the key, and take it back to the chest near the floating door. - Shoot a rainbow and walk across it to the exit door.

@Lucrecious_ Thanks. Not sure, maybe more like rogue-like-like. I implemented a mechanic where the player can only kill enemies with certain arrows, and killing enemies gives the player a new type of arrow. So I'd like to make the levels a bit puzzle-ish.
