What a stinker. I'm still working on the sphere part in the end.

Is the right box supposed to be sunk in the waterwhole at he conveyor?

kiki · Post by **kiki** » Wed Jul 23, 2008 12:25 pm

The right box goes on the -

white button

That's how I do it anyway.

Ok if I ever finish this stinker I wanna know how that first part happens

Is that a glitch or just something I don't understand (gee whatta ya think) hehehe

kiki · Post by **kiki** » Wed Jul 23, 2008 1:59 pm

Sorry about the start, Yes I guess it is a glitch.
Something I noticed while playing Bob and Dizzy's last level.
I will post another version of the level with an alternative start.

I love that first part! It's really cool. I only get it about 1 in 5 tries but that's ok it's the beginning

I'm stuck on the red timer right now. I know what I want to do but can't figure out how yet. Still workin' on it though.

kiki · Post by **kiki** » Wed Jul 23, 2008 2:06 pm

Here is an alternate version with a different start.

Lutz · Post by **Lutz** » Wed Jul 23, 2008 4:04 pm

Ace fun, Kiki.
The start was

I also needed some time to set up the red timer.
And of course I noticed in the end that Qookie forgot to explore some of the caves

Thanks a lot

Ah haaaaaa finally got that red timer figured out. Silly me, taking a coin before its time! I should know better by now.

Finally got to the end with all the goodies only to get gated by that dangy gate that gave me so much trouble!

Great stuff Keekster! So how does that beginning work anyway? What do you have to do in the editor to control that lil stinker?

Oh and thanks for this as always

Kiki, I saw the word 'Beach' and I had to play.

I love everything about beaches.

I am stuck at the first kaboom area. The bottom, left corner. I can't jump in there with it! I cannot trap it and blow it up!

Anybody want to give me a hint?

annedanner · Post by **annedanner** » Wed Jul 23, 2008 6:28 pm

Hey Kiki,

Challenging level! Thanks for reposting without the rainbow fellow. I kept getting caught with one kaboom or another, but eventually made it to the end. Thanks!

annedanner · Post by **annedanner** » Wed Jul 23, 2008 6:30 pm

Here you go Emmy!

The first one you have to play dodge 'em. The second one you have to have pretty good timing and turn as soon as you land.

Dizzy1 · Post by **Dizzy1** » Wed Jul 23, 2008 7:05 pm

Ok, thanks Anne! I was killing the first kaboom!

And I meant to ask about the 2nd kaboom, so your hint should help.

I'll try it!

And thanks for the pm Lutz. Don't bother answering the 2nd one though.

Lutz · Post by **Lutz** » Wed Jul 23, 2008 7:14 pm

Too late

Dizzy1 · Post by **Dizzy1** » Wed Jul 23, 2008 7:23 pm

You know....when I saw the PM notification, logged into RTW, saw that you posted on this same level, I actually thought you would say, "Too late" and you did!

Weird huh?
I'm easily amused.

That first part was

especially when I zigged and he zagged and nailed me probably 9 times out of 10 but I was bound and determined to get that little sucker, especially when I saw he took care of himself

Then came the jump

I don't think I want to say were I wound up at one point.

But my favorite part was the boulder/box/sphere puzzle.

Funtastic level, thanks

Thanks so much for posting the one with the revised beginning! I was struggling so hard with that rainbow spirit and nothing I could do worked, especially as I'm so out of practice

The rest of the puzzle was quite enough - especially the timing with that second kaboom!

Anyway I got to the end twice without my gold star, so back to the beginning again and eventually I made it!

Excellent puzzle Keeks!

Great level Kiki!

I had some trouble with all parts, but especially with the blue spheres (as usual

).

Finally I reached the goal! Thanks for the fun!

uneekrose · Post by **uneekrose** » Sat Jul 26, 2008 6:47 pm

OK, help me past that spirit, I'm just not fast enough I guess, what are you supposed to do? help please

rescuefire · Post by **rescuefire** » Sat Jul 26, 2008 6:54 pm

Timing......

What I did was wait til the level completely loads, when the spirit went up I went up paused for half a second and then went back down and left and he went and blew up to the right.

It's hard to explain timing though. I sure hope that helps ya.

kiki · Post by **kiki** » Sat Jul 26, 2008 6:56 pm

First be at the left and wait til it just starts down then move right then step off and if your timing is right the spirit will travel right then up to get that coin.
Or you can download the alternate version above, No spirit to get past in that one.

uneekrose · Post by **uneekrose** » Sat Jul 26, 2008 7:16 pm

OK, thanks for the help. I did download the second version, still working on that also. That second boomer is giving me fits.

I'll try this again later, kind of burnt out on wonderland today.

uneekrose · Post by **uneekrose** » Sun Jul 27, 2008 12:42 am

Finally, man this one was evil

kiki. Once I got the spirit that part was easy, and I was able to get it on every restart I did...that second boomer was a real killer, Qookie's guts are splattered all over my monitor. I had to call the paramedics.

I worked on the second one first but messed up the spheres and the boulder. So for the heck of it I went back to the first, managed to finally get it figured out only to get to the end with a bonus coin missing.

You need to take those invisible walls out of your editor, next time thru I got the one I missed but forgot two others...sheesh

These were fun, The spirit part was pretty cool. I got all the tramping on my first try. Thanks Keeks.

Way to go Monica, Proud of you for sticking with it.

After I got nailed by the spirit a few times I remembered something odd happening when I was working on DIZBO2 and I thought I would try it here, nice to see you actually used it as a design element, although it is a little dodgy! Note the screen-shot!

My biggest problem with this one was trying to figure out how to move that box by the blue spheres, I just couldn't see it until the light finally came on.

Great stuff Kiki, thanks!

rescuefire · Post by **rescuefire** » Sun Jul 27, 2008 9:31 pm

LOL I was in that exact same spot numerous times! LOL great screen shot.

Ok ya have to share what you did to get the spirit to work that way boys

wonderfull · Post by **wonderfull** » Tue Jul 29, 2008 2:35 pm

Finally managed to get both of these treasures completed. My biggest challenge was the timing of the jump into the boomer pen; his cohurt kept sneaking up behind me and scaring the bejeebers outta me!

Great level Kiki, mucho gracias.

Amnon · Post by **Amnon** » Sat Aug 30, 2008 3:16 pm

It was hard, but a great level. I like the Devonbeach texture and caves, thanks!

(I played the original version)
