That would be cool! I would be OK with it not saving high scores, etc when
it was standalone, and requiring all scoring record attempts to be while
connected (to prevent hacks).
We were connected to the LEGO website for many hours yesterday, doing
nothing else... so presumably there was SOME cost to LEGO (for maintaining
our session) even though we were presumably running from our local cache of
shockwave pages once we had viewed one particular puzzle the first time (or
maybe from the get go since there was a substantial delay to start the game
the first time, and almost none the second time)
One feedback to Tomas on the delay is that it might be nice to let the user
know that is what is going on more explicitly than with the gray brick
pileup. We were at the "try moving bricks before you play" for a long time
trying to figure out why we couldn't go on... until it dawned on me that it
was downloading and we just had to wait.
