New Level (Adv) The Nick of Time *

I've been working on this one for awhile now.
The original had even more close calls & narrow escapes.
Using Janet Galle's hot Blast Furnace.

Have fun on the run!

I am all the way to the upper left with that box

I can see what I think needs to be done but just can't seem to get my timing right, I think I just tired.

The start was magnificent, with the kegs and cannon.
Then onto the boulder metal box and cube.

I was over thinking the metal box and cube, DOH! on that.
So there I am with that wood box.

Back tomorrow. Thanks for the level Mark.

Here's some help:

Be sure not to pause on your way to green gate.

Great level! It took me a lot of practicing to get the timing right, and it gave a lot of satisfaction to finish it!

Thanks for the fun!

Had the hardest time with that red button, finally got my fingers to work with me instead of against me and made it home with gold. Fantastic level all the way.

Got it my first go today, I just needed to sleep on that timing.

Perfect title Mark, cuz everything I did was just in the nick of time.

It was like the circle of life coming back to where it all started.

Very ingenious level, I too had alot of satisfaction when I jumped into the exit.

Thanks!

I would love to say how much I liked the opening but that would be lying...I found it so frustrating I was ready to give this up. But the rest made up for it when I finally got the timing right on the first part.

I'm a bit confused by your hint about the green gate though.

Anyhoo, thanks for the workout!

edit: Mark just explained the green gate move to me but I can't make it work so I have to stick with a slightly alternate method.

Exactly my feelings. Still stuck in the first room.
Haven't found the exact nanosecond to slide left yet

You should never slide left unless you have a death wish.

I sent both you and Bob a message.

Thanks to some help from Marinus and Mark I got past my frustration. It's so easy if you know how...

Getting the 3 buttons covered was relatively easy but then I needed lots of restarts again for red and white

But these have been fun because I got further step by step.
Brilliant puzzle, Mark. Thanks

Hey Mark,

May I please have that PM also for the beginning?

Hi Anne,

I sent you a PM, but I'm also posting it for anyone else:

In the first room, slide the first two barrels down as soon as they stop. As the cannon fires, run up and slide the third barrel down.

Got her done, but I don't like this quick timing.
