New Level (advanced) - Brixham

Liz Mayhew · Post by **Liz Mayhew** » Wed Aug 09, 2006 1:41 pm

Brixham (pronounced Brixum). More from South Devon, but this time it's a harbour town, not a beach.

I'm using Mette's Wood2 texture which most of you probably have already. Thanks Mette!

EDIT: I forgot to put in a pale blue (aqua) gate on this level. I've posted the revised edition lower down the page.

Lovely little town at the sea. But very tricky to find a way out. The boxes room was

Got it sorted after a lot of tries and am looking forward for the next beach - need some relaxing

P.S.: Was the green timer just a red herring

Hi Lutzie

No, the green timer was not a red herring!

The entrance to Peegue's boat has a green gate.
(I hope!

- better go and check!)

But now I come to think about it, you don't need to go in that way ...
Oh well!

You found the Loopity Loophole! Congrats Lutz.

EDIT: Just replayed it, trying to use the other entrance, and it doesn't work that way. The exit would be cut off.

Fabulous looking fisherman's wharf, The texture was perfect, Wonderfully intricate puzzle Liz, The one bonus coin was devilish to get to, Until I had a big DUH! moment,

I too went the way that lutz took. I enjoyed working this beauty out. Thanks for a wonderful seaside series.

OK, OK, I've messed up here.

Lutz - I left out the aqua (or pale blue) gate. Maybe you call it green?

So for the perfectionists amongst you, here's the revised edition, with the aqua gate on the z-bot boat.

Apologies folks!

No apologies necessary Liz, this level was a heck of a fine challenge, Light blue gate or not.

Lillie · Post by **Lillie** » Thu Aug 10, 2006 7:05 pm

Lizzie - help please with the z-bot room! I have been in that room for what seems like hours, and I just can't seem to work out where to put the box to keep them going over the timer without them dying in the gaps of water

Cheers me dear!

PS: Wonderful atmospheric level - to think I was sitting at that very same harbour two weeks ago eating a pistachio icecream

I think this has to be one of the hardest of your levels I've played.

Light blue gate missing

never even noticed.

I was too busy trying to unstuck Peegue. Thanks for the help there.

Jeepers what a brain strain this one was. Can't tell you how many times I had to redo the boulders when one would

at the wrong time

Happy to report I got my gold

I really enjoy these "boat" levels you do! I was stuck in the zbot room for ages, also. In the end, I solved it without the green gate, too, because I couldn't see any other way to keep the zbots on the button, and get Stinky (?) to the exit.

The only way I could see to get Stinky to the exit was to push the cannon in the water, creating a stop, which in turn let the zbots go in the water.

I will try your revised version, and see how that goes! Thanks!

Liz, this level was elegant!

You are a gifted artist and architect to bring a fishing village and pier to life!
The puzzle elements were all challenging and fun!
I especially had the dickens of a time collecting that one isolated bonus coin.

PS. I played your revised version.

I'm embarrassed

to say how long this level has taken me. The Kaboom kept blowing up the boulder, then the zbots gave me absolute fits & when I did gt as far as Peegue's boat kept stepping on the wrong tiles. Then I'd start over & get one part but muck up another. Have to agree that this is absolutely one of the most difficult puzzles you have made. It wasn't so much that the puzzle was hard to figure out it was just that there was so much room for error. Magnificant job, Lizzie

I CAN FINALLY

Lillie · Post by **Lillie** » Fri Aug 11, 2006 8:59 pm

I DID IT!! In fact I did both of them and I didn't have to get the z-bots going over the green timer in the end

Perhaps I was making it harder that it was hon?

Loved this cracker - fab to look at and even more fab to pla and complete! You really are a wizz with those travelator puzzles

Loved it - many thanks Lizzie. I brought you back a pressie from Brixham

Please don't eat me - I want to be your pet!

These were fun levels, Liz! The aqua gate in the second one was no problem. The Peegue/box part was where I had trouble. With your help, I found that Qookie was making one wrong move. Straightened that out and both went home happy. Thanks for all that!

Loirae · Post by **Loirae** » Sat Aug 12, 2006 4:36 am

This took me forever to figure out! But I did it and I'm glad to say Peedue got rescued before the boat when all the way to the bottom.

Liz Mayhew · Post by **Liz Mayhew** » Sat Aug 12, 2006 6:53 am

I'm fascinated by the different ways people seem to have gone about this one.

Tasha - how weird that the kaboom kept blowing up the boulder. I thought he'd be gone before the boulder went there.

Lillie and several others seem to have done it without having the green gate open. I don't understand that at all.

Anyway, thanks for playing it everyone.

If anyone else needs help or screenshots, let me know and I'll post them here.

TASHA · Post by **TASHA** » Sat Aug 12, 2006 12:17 pm

Lizzie, when you say you thought the Kaboomie would be gone do you mean wandering around in the top section or killed with the boxes instead of a boulder?

Liz Mayhew · Post by **Liz Mayhew** » Sun Aug 13, 2006 7:45 am

Tasha - my intention was to squash the kaboom with the boxes, get the coin, and then push the boulder onto the button.

You don't need the green gate to enter the area. You put some fake walls there - remember?

Lucky-Luc · Post by **Lucky-Luc** » Sun Aug 13, 2006 12:47 pm

Finally solved this stinker! (and opened the green gate)

Excellent puzzle! I needed ages to figure the Z-Bot Part out (though I wouldn't have needed it)!
Thanks for the great challenge!

This one took quite a bit of trial and error for me before everything fell into place! I liked the way the level looked and enjoyed figuring it out!

rescuefire · Post by **rescuefire** » Tue Apr 22, 2008 11:32 pm

I stood there thinkin' how the bloody hell do you get outta here!!!

Silly me. Loved this one too Lizzie. I did both versions and both worked great! Still didn't need to mess with those zbots and that green timer

Off to more golden oldies, thanks Lizzie!
