New Level (adv) - Pluto

Hi All

We've reached the end of the Solar System. Pluto.
The level uses the same spaceship1 texture as before and Popoplanets4, used in the last couple of levels. Thanks again Pauline for your wonderful work.

Some scientists have demoted Pluto and say it's not a planet. Others call it a dwarf planet. Here's one explanation I found. I like to think of Pluto as a dwarf planet, but I'm not an astrophysicist. I'll leave you to make up your own minds.

I'm enjoying your kids levels, Liz. With this one I didn't take the coins soon enough! Sheesh - between you and Kiki!

Bravo!! BRAVISSIMO!!! This series has been very fun to play!

You, know, I always thought of Wonderland as an entirely different planet...!

Although... I have some suggestions...

Before ending this series, if it's not too much trouble, I was wondering if a few more levels could be squeezed in?

For instance, there's actually an area in the solar system that is found outside of Pluto's orbit. It's called the Oort (pronounced ORT) Cloud, and it is home to THOUSANDS of comets. I think that would make for an interesting level, but that's just my opinion.

Also, what about the Asteroid Belt?

By using teleporters to hop from asteroid to asteroid, I think that would be pretty cool.

Again, these are just some suggestions. This was a WONDERFUL series! Thanks, Liz!

P.S.- 2010 is supposed to be the year when a spacecraft flies by Pluto and then onto the outskirts of the Solar System. It was launched in either 2004 or 2005, and it should be there soon!

Anne - glad you're enjoying the KidsLevels.

Gameboy - Thanks for the input.

I too think Wonderland is a completely different planet, but somehow our 4 heroes slipped through into a parallel universe.

Don't forget it's a long voyage back to Earth and I'm sure the crew will be visiting the OORT Cloud and the Asteroid Belt on the way home.

Then I guess they'll have to find that portal back into Wonderland!:stinkycool:

This one took a couple of restarts as I made some silly mistakes, another fun one Liz, thanks!

Love the info on what makes a planet compared to a dwarf planet.

Liz , can you post some of the levels of the solar system series? I cannot
find the levels at the beginning of the series. Can you please post them
here?

I like all your levels because they are fun to play. Do you mind sending
me a PM of all of your levels?

Hi Elvis - I'm afraid I can't send you anything by pm because I can't attach anything to my pms. I always get a message saying my attachment limit is reached even if I completely empty all my pm boxes.

I still have a couple of levels to do to finish the Solar System series, then I will try to put them all in a zip file, and all the models and textures in 2 other zip files. I'll post them on the kids levels for everyone.
