New Level (Adv) Inspector Gadget *

The title, level, and texture were inspired by one of our talented Wonderland crew.

Yes, you know who you are -- and I'm glad you're back.

Using Janet Galle's radiant RedTemple texture for the interior.

Great level Mark! Thanks.

Yeah, great level, Mark. Every room was a challenge, and I cannot believe that I actually made it

I had to use every thinking cap I've ever had

Thanks, buddy!!!

Hi Mark - what a lovely tribute to our Inspector Gadget, Lillie.

Great to play one of your mind-benders and no surprise that I can't complete it, out of practise as I am.

I loved the first box puzzle - absolutely ace. Then it took me a few tries to do the cannon/prism part. But now I'm stuck with the trampoline/sphere/boulder/goobie.

Still working on it.

Thank you so much, Liz!

I'm thrilled to see you playing again!

The puzzle in the SW corner is particularly difficult
Here is a walk-through for the first part:

Jump D, D and roll the sphere up so it lands on the pink button.
Tramp goob up, and roll boulder down against the coin.
Jump U, L to get the coin below the Goob.
Jump R, U and slide the Goob down one tile.
Jump D, L to roll boulder up against aqua gate.
Now the boulder is in the correct position to destroy the sphere.

Hey Mark,
This is a really fun puzzle. I had already finished the above part and am now stuck about where to go from here. May I have a hint as to what to do next?

I'm assuming that I have to jump above the boulder. If that's true, will you tell me the jumps?

[Edit] Hold up a minute, Mark. I have an idea. Be back soon!

[Edit] Got i! Yea! Thanks, again, Mark. This level was really fun and a great tribute to Lillie.

You're assuming wrong, annedanner

If Lillie's "Inspector Gadget" then your "The Gadgeteer Mark".
Love these levels with a little bit of everything from a fine box pushing puzzle to the spheres with a twist and a bot ta boot at the end.
Thanks for the level.

This was a very interesting level. The box puzzle was amazing, the prism area need some thinking, but that goob/sphere/boulder puzzle was incredible. Thanks for a great level.

Nice tribute to Lillie, Mark

First two rooms were pretty Lillie-ish. I found the goobie puzzle more Marky because I needed a lot of thinking and many restarts to pass it

(which doesn't mean the first rooms were easy to solve).
Did the final part with the bottie wrong my first time of course

Thanks for an ace level

Aha! Oho! Woohoo! I did it!

Loved the box puzzle and the next part (needed the save game option after those two parts though)

. Had to do some real thinking with the goob/sphere/boulder area but by golly I got it! More thinking was required (for me anyway) for the ending with the zbot. Loved it, loved it, loved it!

Great level and thanks for the fun!

Finally finished this one (with a lot of help of course

)

What a marvellous level Mark.

Very tricky moves needed in every bit of the level, and the ending was so clever. Thanks for the ace puzzlement.

I liked the box puzzle at the start, well at least the first 3 or 4 times I ran through it, after the 8th time I didn't need to see it anymore.

Tricky bits everywhere and good fun, thanks Mark.

I know exactly what you mean, Bob. I usually open up the editor and plop down Peegue in the next section.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who does that too, its a nice save feature.

Marinus · Post by **Marinus** » Sun Feb 15, 2009 7:04 pm

Finally the truth has been revealed. I always thought I was the only one who uses the editor as a help to play levels. And to find some hidden things.

kiki · Post by **kiki** » Sun Feb 15, 2009 7:20 pm

I don't do it all the time, I only do it when I restart in one spot a gazillion times.

Marinus · Post by **Marinus** » Sun Feb 15, 2009 7:26 pm

Of course. Me too, especially with big levels.

I would never, ever, never admit to doing something like that!

Of course, I'm not saying I wouldn't do it, I'm just not going to admit to it.

Me neither

I must say - this is my fave type of puzzle - moving from room to room instead of not having a clooooo where to go next! Each room was brilliant Markus - you have the most wonderful knack of being about to create mind-boggling puzzles using the minimum amount of objects - that is so very clever! The soko/box puzzle was fab (I must have done it about 30 times no joke

)! The simpleness of the travelator room was fab and the next room was class!

I was completely stumpoozled on the last part - then

Salin helped me

Ace from start to finish - I only wish I had used "less" gadgets in my orig!

Brilliant level Mark - muchos thanks

Great puzzle Mark. I got the boxes right off the bat but I sure needed the help with all those tramp moves.

I made so many mistakes with this one that my fingers knew how to do those boxes very well. I was really confused also with the end part so I just paused it and stared at it for a bit, then it hit me what had to happen.

Ace puzzle...enjoyed it. Thanx

Wow Mark this was truly awesome!

I was able to solve most of this on my own except the goobie area - drew a blank there

so I needed your hint, thanks for the nudge.

The rest fell into place now that you opened that box I was in.

Thanks for this brain strainer

Looked like a walk in the part - except for the humdinger of getting rid of the red sphere. Cool, Thanks!
