New Level - The Bobster!

I borrowed Bob's fantastical clinical texture - so I named the level after him!

Thanks Bobster!

Have fun

I'm already stumped on the first of your next 250! I cannot get past the beginning! I will keep working on it, but may come back for help!

Good heavens! I'm flattered Lillie, I'm also stuck with the boulders at the beginning! I'll keep trying but I may need a little clue as well.

You shamed me into it...now to finish the rest!

I have tried everyway possible to get the first part done, but I have made it as far as getting the boulders in the water and having nothing to put on the button because I can't get back to my metal box it is stuck in the corner, so I know I am not doing something right. I am gonna need a hint on this

Fun one, Lillie

Somehow I started the generator and all was fine

Clever and tricky level, thanks

Tough and tricky level, Lillie! Had the hardest time getting the first part right! Once I figured that part out I could do it pretty fast! The next part took another eon to figure out! The first time the generator started I jumped out of my skin! Finally figured out the right way so I could use the boulder. Very nice use of Bob's texture!

I actually figured out the first part relatively quickly (for me!) but took awhile to get the rest all coordinated (had to move quickly to get everything in place). Nice level, lots of fun.

Sorry everyone

I honestly thought this was would be a piece of cake and that my Enter The Dragon level was really tricky and hard

See how different we all are - brilliant

OK - move Stinky down - only possible way! As soon as he can, push the boulder that stopped right into top puddle. Wait in same spot because another boulder will stop in the same place - push right into puddle again. Now walk down and when you can, go past metal box and stand below it and push it up one square ready to push over the middle conveyor. Once the remaining boulders have looped the loop two more times push metal box onto conveyor and up to stop the boulders (see screenshot). Then move metal box to the right and over the middle conveyor and place it at blue square to block the two boulders as you push them down to go into bottom puddle!

Hope that helps

Isn't that remarkable - I found this such a Stinka

Couldn't have done it without your hint Lillie - been tearing my hair out in large handfuls

Despite the mental blockage - it was a joy to complete and is really rather clever too. Perhaps I can sleep tonight now ... Tragic Confession Alert - I got back up at 2:20 this morning to have another go - it was driving me mad

Thanks for the fun hon

ok, girlfriend...this took me forever and a day, even with the hint..i finally managed to get the boulda bit right, then messed up on the other side, and guess what???omg, had to go do it all over again..took me another 100 gazillion times to get the boulda right again..i actually got it that time..i had so much sweat on my brow, and my palms were sweaty, by the time i finished...great looking level, nice tribute for bob..i really needed some

wonderlandlover · Post by **wonderlandlover** » Mon Jan 30, 2006 11:06 pm

For me, this was way harder than #250! I had to use your walk through, and then just like ohbehave, it took even longer on the other side!

For the life of me, I could not fill the water, so I could roll the sphere. I was just about to throw in the towel, then I looked around some more, and Ah-ha! It should have been obvious to check for that, when your brain isn't mush!

This was a great level...even with the difficulty. Thanks!

I was able to figure out the very first part before your hint, but the second part with the metal box was what I needed. Once inside the right room, your fake tramps also got me! After a few more mistakes, Stinky finally made it through and had a fun ride through the exit. Thanks for the help, challenge and fun, Lillie!

Chickie · Post by **Chickie** » Tue Jan 31, 2006 12:55 am

I knew I was going to have to give myself a dope slap for that one. I could not for the life of me figure out the first section and then after reading your spoiler I just knew it was probably simple it just wasn't coming to me. Brain Fart. Anyway great level, very very tricky.

Amadeus! · Post by **Amadeus!** » Tue Jan 31, 2006 5:18 am

Lillie,

What a wild and tricky ride!
This was a great dedication to Bob, who himself, a very creative craftsman.
First part took me the longest, but I solved it without any hints.
Now, looking at your picture, I see that my solution is exactly the same.
So, I think we can be sure there's only one solution to this level.

And like a few others, I found this much more perplexing than "Enter the Dragon".

Two Enthusiastic Thumbs Up!!!

EDIT: My above comment about " only one solution" refers to the first section with the four boulders.

Finally success. The first part was a real humdinger, Amadeus said it, It was a wild ride (alas without the toad) " I kept destroying a vital piece of the puzzle, Eventually got it sorted and made off with another gold star. Thanks. Three thumbs way up,

Loirae · Post by **Loirae** » Tue Jan 31, 2006 8:52 am

ARGH!!!! I find the boulder part easy peasy. had that down after a couple tries. But I just cannot get to the exit. I got the gats open. I got the water filled. I can get all the coins. But that fire! Obvously there's only one thing that can put them out, but I can't get it going! The coin always blasts it. And if I move the coin, then I can't get other things in there so that the thing can do it's bit. I've searched for hidden walls, but can't find any of those to help, either.

HELP!!!!!!

EDIT:DerDOY! Thanks Keeks.

got the gold!

WRONG!!!!

Malc already pm'd me to tell me he didn't use the metal box at all

My new name is Inspector Gadget because I always put too many gadgets in my levels - FACT

Thanks everyone for your comments - sorry it was such a stinker. If anyone else needs help please don't hesitate to ask

PS: You can all blame Bob the Bobster for the fake trampo tiles

Yours sincerely,

Inspector Gadget

Loirae · Post by **Loirae** » Tue Jan 31, 2006 10:10 am

I didn't use the metal box either. I got rid of it on purpose becaue it was in my way.

Liz Mayhew · Post by **Liz Mayhew** » Tue Jan 31, 2006 12:35 pm

Sorry Lillie - but even with the walkthrough I still can't do the first part. I have been doing exactly as you say, but I'm left with 2 boulders together at the top, so they can't be pushed downwards.

Will keep trying though and get back to you next year!

Lillian · Post by **Lillian** » Tue Jan 31, 2006 12:42 pm

You must be pushing the metal box up too late Lizzie - push it up one loop before you are at the mo and the boulders should end up like in my screenshot - one tile apart from each other

Hope that helps

amy25 · Post by **amy25** » Sun Feb 12, 2006 4:00 am

I can get the first part done. Getting the 2nd part done is where I am having the problem. I have let the kaboom loose to be killed by the one keg but then when I try to get the zbot to hit the hidden keg, I can't get him to go. Then I get stuck trying to figure out how to get the boulder to go how it needs to so the fire balls can be put out. Help!

Lillian · Post by **Lillian** » Sun Feb 12, 2006 4:18 pm

Amy - the kaboom needs to go left into the first boulder room (hidden keg should sort him out). You need to get the z-bot into the top room (where the kaboom was). But first get the coins in there. I used the grey box to direct the z-bot in there - but Malc says that apparently the generator directs him in there. You must do this before the kaboom dies and before the generator starts.

Hope that helps - if not, I'll do you a screenshot sweetie

Liz Mayhew · Post by **Liz Mayhew** » Sun Feb 12, 2006 5:21 pm

At last - thanks to help from the Bobster himself - I've managed to complete this one. My total hang-up was those last 2 boulders at the beginning.

Once I got over the other side I was in more familiar Lillie territory, and everything fell into place very nicely.

This is such a brilliant and original puzzle Lillie - definitely one of my all-time favourites now!

Lillie...maybe not as lemon squeezy as you thought (?)

Lillian · Post by **Lillian** » Sun Feb 12, 2006 9:00 pm

You are really funny Bobster - I look forward to your funny posts and piccies

amy25 · Post by **amy25** » Sun Feb 12, 2006 9:29 pm

Finally got it! Took some timing to get the kaboom and the zbot to work like I wanted them to but I got the job done! Great level!
