If anyone needs help with the sphere puzzle there's a sign top right.

Uses popo's 'piazza' texture, thank-you!

Hey Bob,

Thanks for the level. I'm having difficulty with the blue spheres even with your instructions. Will you please double check them to make sure they are accurate. Thanks so much!

Some work to decipher the sign but finally got past that only to struggle with the blue dudes and the upper left room.
Great level and way easier than the one before (still working that one)
Thanks Bob!

I'm having difficulty with the blue spheres even with your instructions.

I checked them a few times before I made the sign, they should be correct. After you push the first sphere of the group of three up, the rest of the instructions refer only to the sphere on the left.

I'll try to make time to post a walkthrough for the spheres later today, I'm afraid I got carried away trying to make it trciky, sorry.

Knowing that the instructions refer to the left sphere really helps. Thanks, Bob. Tricky is good!

Well Bob, this was very tricky, but I actually managed it - am I surprised!

I did the the blue sphere bit completely differently to your way because I tried your instructions and they didn't work for me. My way is easier but needs quick fingers.

Loved the shadow dudes bit. No problem with them.

Great ending too!

Thanks for the fun Bob

Hey Liz,

Will you please PM with the way you did it?

Here's my walkthrough for the evil sphere puzzle.

-push right sphere up, middle sphere left then up into tp
-down onto blue timer, remove coin when stopped, step on ice pushing sphere left, then down
-walk up over break-tiles and enter top tp
-push sphere right onto ice and follow (not too close)
-sphere down, then go back up and through top tp again
-sphere right onto ice, when stopped remove coin
-sphere left onto conveyor
-push sphere down into tp just as the bottom sphere touches the lower blue timer
-prepare to enter top tp when the left sphere at the bottom comes to a stop, that bottom sphere should come up and land against the wall
-collect the final coin in that area and push sphere left
-and watch where you stand through all this!

Good luck.

OK, I figured out the blue spheres another way, also. I'm off to play the rest now. What fun, Bob

[Edit] Got 'er finished. Fun and challenging level, Bob. I especially liked the "blue men group" and the ending with the GREEN sphere!

Here's what I did with the blue spheres:

Push left.
Take leftmost coin and go left into bottom blue TP.
Push left sphere down to smash barrel/boxes.
Go to dark blue timer (be careful to leave the coin left of that)
The next steps have to be done fairly quickly to avoid losing the right side sphere.
Step on timer, take coin left of sphere, push sphere left, step on timer again and up, right, out of the way.
Take coin left of blue timer, push sphere down and step up, right, out of the way.
One sphere is now circulating and activating the timers.
Walk down to the bottom sphere and push it right, step up. Sphere goes on white button.
