New Level - St George's Day

Liz Mayhew · Post by **Liz Mayhew** » Sat Apr 23, 2005 2:50 pm

It's 23 April and it's St George's Day. He is patron saint of England, and reputed to be a dragon slayer, so he's a mythical figure really. This level is based on the English flag.

Good luck.

This is such a fun level, Liz. Haven't finished it yet -- have restarted about 10 times, but will keep plugging along til the

comes on

Liz, this is really a wicked level! I must have been blown up at least 100 times.

Those dang kabooms and cannons! But, I must say even though I had a hard time with them, it was fun and very rewarding to finally get it right. The first time, I made it to the exit as Qookie was counting down. The second time, I made it with time to spare.

GREAT fun and very rewarding! Thanks!

Well, Liz, I've been shot at & kaboomed at least a "million"

times, but finally made it -- what a great feeling

Thanks for a truly challenging & enjoyable puzzle.

Do not mess with dragons, for thou art crunchy & good with ketchup!

What a tasty level. Tricky as can be, yet such wide open spaces.
I enjoyed it very much.
Here's to St. George. Pip Pip

Very good level Liz. I did one last year based on the flag too.

Even though I mucked up with the boxes at the start, I still managed to salvage enough to do the job and St. George got his reward for slaying the dragons.

Popo - I didn't realise you'd done a level based on the flag too!

This was before I joined the forum. I'll find the level and give it a go.

And O/G - I did get fried very crispy when play testing this level.

Hey Popo - I found your St George's day level. That was fun smashing up all those chompers. Got my steel box pushed too far a couple of times, so had to start over. Great.

BTW I saw that I'd never completed your Sheffield level (more like didn't know how to start)

So gave that a go, and WHOOPEE I did it. That's quite a sokoban puzzle in itself getting the steel boxes where you wanted them.

Glad you enjoyed it Liz.

I've been looking at my old levels today, and I'm ashamed to say I couldn't do some of them.

Funny how we forget so easily.

Another couple of hours dedicated to a Liz Creation ... unlike the last one I could see exactly what to do but got whipped many times trying !

Great challenge

Thanks

This is a fun level Liz, although it took me a while to finally finish! Trying to do it without getting zapped was not easy (for ME!). Thanks for the fun!

This is hysterical to me because I've done the same thing - looked at a level I made a year ago and couldn't figure out how to do it or what it was I thinking. HA!

This is a brilliant level Lizzie - but I can't bl**dy do it!!!!!!!! My kabooms keep exploding into each other

No hints yet please as I am really enjoying trying to work it out

Yippeeeeeeee!

I DID IT - FINALLY!!!!!! Golly Lizzie - this was really hard - maybe I was doing it the wrong way? I needed 4 kabooms to smash the boxes to get the coins - is that right? I gave up on trying to get the kabooms in the first section to "walk the walk" down towards the coins and just used one of them, then built a bridge to the other kaboom section and used them?

Brilliant level and looked fab too

If anyone's interested, there's a website that's taking votes to get St. George's Day made a public holiday in England. They need as many votes as possible to get Tony Blair to take notice.

If you want it as a holiday then go to this link......

I've done my bit.

Lillie said "I needed 4 kabooms to smash the boxes to get the coins - is that right?"

Actually Lillie you only need 3 kabooms to get to the coins. Don't know where you needed the 4th one?

Popo - let's look forward to a holiday for next year!
