New Level (Adv) Don't Try This At Home! *

Post by Mark » Sun May 27, 2007 4:00 am

Please don't try any of these stunts at home!
I can not take responsibility for the outcome. :shock:

You'll need Janet Galle's creative "Leafme" texture for this outing.

Be safe and have fun! :D


Hint: You don't need good timing for the conveyor.
Just go against the flow. :wink:

:D :D :D Most excellent misdirection Mark, You really have to think in the other direction so to speak with this one or your going nowhere fast. :lol:
The jump sequence was the hardest for me to even see at first.
You are the true Puzzle Smith of the forum. Brilliant work! Thanks bud and do carry on. :D :D :D

I DID IT! With a little guidance from the wizard, of course!
I'm a tad dizzy - from riding the ferris wheel!

I need some confetti! And a drink with an umbrella!
Excellent level!!! Great texture!
I concur with Kiki's kudos to you!

WOW


Next?!!!

This one has stumped me this morning. I have a feeling I will need a hint.

My problem is getting across the water square to the right. My hunch is what I'm supposed to do is set up a trampoline loop with the grey transporter. However, I am only able to get to the water square this way, and I don't have any idea how to get one square further. Is there some trick with the ice to push you once more into the grey transporter? With the ball perhaps?

I'm at a loss otherwise, because I think it is physically impossible to move anything into the water from the left because the trampoline is in the way.

Save that for later. First cover the blue, yellow and cyan buttons. :wink:

That was my problem too Mark :roll: - now that I've seen your hint, I'll try a different way. :wink:

ok one last seemingly insurmountable problem. i can get every other coin and get to the exit but still i can't get to the coins past that single water square. i would be able to solve it if i could get the ball that can be used to kill the fire on the grey transporter into that water square. but alas, i can't.

You can only reach the coins on the right side after you enter the room with the pink gate. :wink:

I can't believe I finally made it: 1000's of tries over a few days...

My main problem was to get that spirit locked up. I was just not fast enough, especially with my slow computer where the keyboard does not always respond fast enough when there are too many moving objects around. But of course I missed the ice-trick and tried to be faster without it... Once I discovered this cute trick, it still took many many tries to get the timings right, then my keyboard betrayed me again in the right-transporter section, well, after many failures I finally entered the gates of heaven!

Amnon, there are only two moving objects in my level, the Rainbow Spirit and the Zbot.
Did you try playing at a lower resolution, say 640 x 480 and setting the "Detail Level" in Options to "Low"?
You can also disable the "Music" and run the game is Window Mode.

If you have a slow computer, be sure to disable any active Anti-Virus Monitor.
And if you are low on RAM, restarting the computer will help.
Wonderland does not always release itself from memory.
After I exit the game, I often find "Wonderland.exe" still running in the "Task Manager" processes window.
It's also possible your keyboard may need to be replaced.
Speaking from experience, I've had to buy a few from playing this game. :wink:

"1000's of tries", I'm impressed! 8)
Thanks for hanging in there. Most players would have just given up.

Yes Mark, I have already done all the above - the problem is that my graphic card is old and cannot handle the game, and so it is done by the CPU, which is only 1GHz, so coins, gates, flames, conveyors, even the exit - all contribute to slowing down the keyboard response. Normally it is not a problem, it did not bother me lately on other levels, but when I need to dodge that spirit very quickly, it sometimes happens that a keystroke is too late.

I completely forgot to post on this one. I spent too much time trying to go right then realized success must lie to the west!

Unfortunately the rainbow spirit made me wonder if I was right :lol:

Excellent puzzle Mark!

Thanks for the fun,
bob
