Anne050 It Grows

I fleshed out the last level a bit and am more happy with it. I also changed the texture.

Both are below. Enjoy.

[Edit] I have uploaded a revised edition.

Hi Anne - nice level, it made me think a bit.

Inventory that wasn't used:

Two steel boxes, three boulders, a prism, a flame that was left alone, and a breaktile that wasn't stepped on.

Thanks!

That was a neat variation, and may I say that I used every single item that wasn't nailed down. :D

Thanks Anne,

BTW,

I'm trying to figure out how you got all the coins and still had this many items untouched...I can't see it. :?

Yes, the revised version covers up a LOT!!

However, I still didn't touch the two boulders next to the blue teleporter.

And BTW, Bob, are you playing the revised version? Because in the revised version, it is impossible to have that many things untouched. However, in the regular version, here is one trick I used:
I used the boxes to create a pathway for the transporter, then I rolled a boulder down the blue teleporter which extinguished the flames there. After that, I collected the coins in the blue teleporter room and exited.

When I came this was already revised, yet I made it without touching 3 of the boulders.

I'm curious. How did you do it?

Okay, I thought you were referring to the revised version. I can do that one and still leave a few items (like Amnon) but I couldn't leave as many as I thought you had left. :shock:

Of course, as I've said before, if there's stuff there, I'll use it! :D

Sorry, I tried for hours and couldn't make it again - I must have made a mistake and used another boulder.

If you want to leave three boulders untouched, for me, they are the two on the left and the one below the pink teleporter.

We seem to have hijacked your level Anne, I hope you don't mind too much. :)

The two on the left are needed for nothing, but have you actually managed to do without the one below the pink teleporter? I tried for hours to reconstruct my former claim, but failed.

Yes, you don't need the one below the pink.

Use one wood box to get to the raft, one to form a stopper, both prisms in, one box right into the pink teleporter, one box down into the black teleporter.

Now go on the raft, get the coin, use the boulders on the top left, follow, use the metal boxes...

The rest I know you can get on your own. :wink:

Yes Bob, this worked - what I missed... continually... is the fact that one stopper (the box, or it could in fact be a boulder), can have a DUAL USE!

(instead I was trying to have one stopper to enter into the left tunnel and another for the top-left quarter)

Is this what I did by chance in my very first try, about 9 hours ago, but could not repeat? I suppose I'll never know...

It happens...

I was once totally stumped by, I think a Liz Mayhew level, where I could not see a way out of a room, I had to ask for help.

The trampoline in the corner, which was in plain sight, was for some reason hidden to me. :roll:

Thanks for the fun level!
I still have: 3 boulders unused

I enjoyed reading all of the posts and looking at the ways a level can be solved. This logic stuff is fun, isn't it?

I noticed another level from Mark. Off to play.

Well, being a totally illogical person, I can't do this one yet.

It's causing me quite a lot of trouble. And how a metal box can be used is a mystery - apart from pushing it uselessly through the blue TP.

Back later. :roll:

Hey Liz,

You walked into one of the level loopholes. The way I designed the level you were supposed to use the metal boxes to put out the flames in the right-side blue TP - then use the left-side boulders to make it to the exit.

Thanks for the help Anne!

Made it this time! A very good development of the first idea. :D
