Qookie tries his hand at wild chomper training and finds out it can be dangerous to teach them to do what you want.

These wild chompers certainly ARE very hard to train; I've gotten through the first part, got the chompers where they're supposed to go in the second part; then I'm not fast enough - I keep getting zapped by the green gate. Once I master that part, I can see what's in store for me next! Yikes! I wonder if I exercise my fingers if they'd move faster.

I am going to stake the chomper to the green button, he doesn't stay put long

I will need to get my timing better.
Excellent use of chompers!
The boulder trick in the beginning is foxy! I used it to kill off my helpers before I realized that wasn't a good idea

A question for Majic1 and ol'Gramma that could be a spoiler for anyone that has not gotten to where they are:

POSSIBLE SLIGHT SPOILER

If you keep your finger on the right arrow as you go through the teleporter does the green gate still catch you? As you probably already know, you have to be careful about moving too far, but the timing is tight enough that I wondered if different computer with different processor speed or memory might not work.

Let me know. Thanks.

HA HA HA - I wish I could use that for an excuse. My son's business is in the computer area, and as he is a "speed freak" - he had to make sure his MOM WAS UP TO SPEED - a couple of months ago, he upgraded everything on my computer. So my only excuse is ME! I'll try this again (& probably again & again) - I WILL get it. I am VERY stubborn!!!

Majic, I have the same excuse as you!! It's the old gaming Granny's excuse.

I did complete this level, there is a certain timing. If I stood before the teleporter for just 2 seconds before I went in, the chomper didn't get out before I got thru. (Probably all in my head haha)

Your idea of re-instating the yellow bars was excellent.
You levels are all wonderful, Steve, and this one was great fun to figure out.
Thanks.

AH HA HA HA - I DID it!!! Whoopeee!!! The end wasn't as bad as I was anticipating! What a wonderful feeling when you complete a level like this one!! I'm anxious - and hesitant - to see your next!!!

a heart stoppingly great level.

I made it to the last chomper and then had to spend an hour screwing my courage up to run past him.

hugs angel

I love the name of this level... its so fitting.... I cannot get thru the green teleporter... sob..

... sob.... I think I am fast enough.. but I can't get the chompers to do what I want them to... Or am I looking at this all wrong??.... I really love the idea of this level tho...

... Good thinking level!

I cannot get thru the green teleporter

Welcome to the Gaming Granny club (see above), even if you are not a Granny!
Try keeping a shorter interval between you and the guys behind...so as you round the bottom corner, everybody lines up. That was the first mistake I made.
I agree....really clever level isn't it?

Finally I made it.... I got thru the teleporter once and the spikes got me... This really does take timing....

... Nice fun level steve... I loved the name... so fitting....

This level was fun--I was determined to finish it, even if it meant giving up my sleep--fun level. You should consider expanding it.

Terri -- I wanted to put more in it, but ran out of ideas. Feel free to take it and add on any new ideas you might have (or anyone else for that matter).

Trying to train ol'gramma's dogs was a massive challenge.

Patience was certainly needed here, something I don't normally possess.

Thanks for another fine level Steve.
