Uses majic's 'MyCastle' texture, thanks!

What the !?! is right! How in the world did you get that to happen??

And how did the "you know what" disappear!

bob roest · Post by **bob roest** » Tue Feb 17, 2009 2:29 am

Neat eh!?

I know a glitch or two myself, but I don't use them very often.

In this case there's no where else to go, so hit the tramp and let it happen!

Glad you liked it!

I loved the title, loved the special effects, loved the level!

So creative, so twisted, so ingenious, and so fun!

Thanks Bob! I really, really, really enjoyed this!

What a fitting name for this level

It is a stinkeroonie though. Stinky made it to the red TP and don't know what to do next, he also doesn't know what to do with the third red sphere, but the glitch was awesome

And Loofie has his own problems

You guys are such brilliant mines, I bend in the dust for you

Salin · Post by **Salin** » Tue Feb 17, 2009 5:23 pm

I can make one to exit, but not both

I just don't see it

Marinus · Post by **Marinus** » Tue Feb 17, 2009 7:44 pm

Same problem here.

To get the coin in the green gate I've to jump on the conveyorbutton, so the conveyor is running again. Maybe I did more things wrong in the beginning, for I didn't use one sphere, and I've a woodbox in the open blue gate.

Please help.

So far I managed to exit Stinky. But he left a lot of coins and Loof behind

Is there any chance to reveal that glitch? I don't want to try every impossible move just to find it by accident

Marinus · Post by **Marinus** » Tue Feb 17, 2009 8:45 pm

Lutz, the glitch is:

When a sphere is on top where the Zbot was, and you travel up, you will automaticly push the boulder down and follow. The boulder will be destroyed, but you will travel down trought the lampposts to the green button

I hope this helps.

But I didn't make progress yet.

bob roest · Post by **bob roest** » Tue Feb 17, 2009 9:13 pm

To clear Stinky, get the coins off the two upper conveyors first then push the right red sphere up and step left. When the left sphere returns push it right. Grab the coins, push the right sphere up and the other one onto the red timer after the right one comes back down.

Now just send Stinky up onto the tramps, you don't have to do anything, the glitch will happen.

To free Loof, Stinky steps on the green timer, Loof waits a bit, pushes the boulder down then hits the ice. The green gate has to close behind him so he can make a third jump to the left and momentary safety.

Anyone needs more, let me know!

Marinus · Post by **Marinus** » Tue Feb 17, 2009 9:25 pm

Thanks, but I already did all that. (except that you have two sphere's rolling over the red and blue timers, and I had one)

But in the end:

One of them has to stand right of the woodbox in the blue gate as jumpstopper, so the other one can jump to the round conveyorbutton, to push the keg in the water. And then the conveyor starts to run again. So one can stand on that button and the other one can exit. But they can't exit both.

So apparantly I'm doing something wrong, but I don't know what.

Yo! I'm letting you know that I need more. Mark, my hat's off to you.

Salin · Post by **Salin** » Tue Feb 17, 2009 10:59 pm

I'm in the same position as Marinus

Marinus · Post by **Marinus** » Tue Feb 17, 2009 11:08 pm

Finally I did it, but I'm afraid it's not quite the intended way.

I pushed the green sphere against the gate, stepped on the timer, waited a while until the timer almost expired. Then pushed the sphere through the gate over the tramp, and went through the red TP (in the 0.5 second the gate was close) so I went from the upper TP to the left. (didn't need the two boxes)

Still curious about the intended way.

Anyhow, I liked the glitch.

Thanks for the fun!

I had got as far as your hint, it was tramps for Loof that was throwing me off.
I was thinking that one box needed to go up to the water by the square conveyor button.
Finally got the dynamic duo to the exit and collected another gold star.
Ingenious level Bob, Thanks!

bob roest · Post by **bob roest** » Wed Feb 18, 2009 1:45 am

One wood box goes in the waterhole to the left of the red sphere. The pink goober goes across to create a double block. The other wood box comes back down to create another double block so Stinky can hit the tramps 4 times and end up on the stop button freeing Loof, pushing the keg into the water and gathering the coin. Now Loof can push a wood box up and around, fill the waterhole to the right of the red sphere collect the coin and everyone exits happy.

I just realized, between this post and my last, I have written out a complete walkthrough for the entire level.

And I didn't think it was that difficult!

Marinus wrote:you have two sphere's rolling over the red and blue timers, and I had one

Yes, I know. If you haven't noticed by now, I like my levels to have a certain look. I'm aware that you don't need two spheres to roll over two timers that are side by side, but a sphere puzzle isn't much fun if there's only two of them! And most important, it helps with the misdirection factor.

I forgot to add that the glitch was a beauty, Loved the effect of travlating thru the floor and lights.

Marinus · Post by **Marinus** » Wed Feb 18, 2009 7:32 am

Thanks!

bob roest wrote:Yes, I know. If you haven't noticed by now, I like my levels to have a certain look.

Sure, and I like it. But sometimes it's also confusing to me, when I don't know what's for the puzzle and what for the look. Just what you say about the misdirection.

Also a level with more then one character is usually more difficult to me, for there are, or seem to be, more possibilities. In this case I was still thinking I needed 2 characters for that jump.

It's just difference between people and how they are thinking.

Salin · Post by **Salin** » Wed Feb 18, 2009 11:51 am

I finally made this too, Bob. Thanks to Marks and your help. I don't know why I did this more complicated than I needed

but I did.
Thanks Bob, for all the fun

annedanner · Post by **annedanner** » Wed Feb 18, 2009 1:44 pm

Hey Bob,

I'm so sorry, but I just haven't got it quite yet. I have Loof standing to the right of the wood box in the middle of the puzzle. Stinky has not yet pushed the green sphere down to keep the green timer going. Will you please tell me the next precise jumps for Stinky?

bob roest · Post by **bob roest** » Wed Feb 18, 2009 2:25 pm

Anne,

Push the green sphere down. Stinky pushes the box into the water, Loof pushes the other box down and ends up on the conveyors. Send Stinky up and follow the steps I laid out for the boxes and the goob. Then Stinky jumps D, U, L, R and lands on the stop button.

Good luck,
Bob

annedanner · Post by **annedanner** » Wed Feb 18, 2009 2:59 pm

Thanks, Bob. My error was in thinking that somebody would die if they landed on the conveyor belt. I enjoy playing your levels and enjoy opening them for the first time to see your colors and layouts.

Lutz · Post by **Lutz** » Wed Feb 18, 2009 10:13 pm

Picked up a hint here and there but did some parts on my own, too

So thanks for another fun one, Bob

marusita · Post by **marusita** » Fri Feb 27, 2009 5:25 pm

I'm afraid, I'm dummy, I can't find the way for go exit with loof in the first part.

I've enjoyed your levels but this level......It has left me without ideas.
Thanks for all levels

There are instructions for that already posted above.

He goes D, U, L.

marusita · Post by **marusita** » Sat Feb 28, 2009 1:42 am

I will try tomorrow, I hope finish the level

Thank you very much Bob

Love the glitch part, but in spite of your complete walkthrough I still can't do it Bob!

My brain is too disconnected at the moment to cope with extreme levels like this, but it's fun trying!

uneekrose · Post by **uneekrose** » Sat Feb 28, 2009 9:54 pm

Was finally able to do this one. I've gotten behind again, I'll catch up one of these days.

Took me awhile to see I was doing things a bit backwards so I had to come read all the hints and I still kept doing them backwards...

I liked the travelator move, that was pretty neat. I enjoyed the level Bob, thanks
