Days Of Cosmic Encounters 22
Once upon a time in a nice cottage on Vulcan. There lived the only boy
in the galaxy who said the words LEGO and LOGO before the word MAMA.
Meet him and have fun!

First hints.
1. The best approach to this level is to 'read' it backwards:
2. You have to reach the cellar with all heroes.
3. To do so, you have to block the lower red TP.
4. But there aren't enough obstacles around.
5. So you have to produce two new obstacles...
6. ...with the goober generator...
7. ...and by blocking its central output.
Good luck!

Chip, I've been working on this one for days on end and have got all four friends on the rafts without using the hints.
Now I have Loof gone home having opened the red gate, Qookie standing on the cyan button, Stinky and Peegue stranded on the lava. I'm stumped.

Hi Krishiv
Thanks for playing and welcome to the crew.
Hi Liz
Thank you for insisting on the level.
Here's the passage from the pantry to the cellar:
1. Stinky gets on the top raft and waits there.
2. Loof gets on the next raft (second from top) and steers it R.
3. Qookie gets on the next raft (third from top), steering it one tile U.
4. Loof and Qookie let collide their rafts, so that Loof can get onto the cyan button.
5. Peegue gets on the last raft, steering it two tiles U.
6. Now you have Loof on the cyan button and the other heroes can reach the left side of the cellar. They have to exit on different buttons to open the central gates for Loof. Reaching the red and the pink button is no problem. Reaching the white button is the final puzzle of the level.
Good luck!

Thanks for the help Chip! Quite simple when you know how of course
I was just tying myself in knots with that raft puzzle.
What a fantastic puzzle. I think I need a little lie down now.

I wasn't able to unravel this one, but thank you for posting the solution!
There's many a clever move here. Especially liked the two transporters coming together. Very well though out, Chip!

Well Chip, I don't know how those buttons stayed pressed for you when the pink cubes were joined together. Whenever I did that, the button would be un-pressed (I was going to say de-pressed but that was me!)
So I used all the pink cubes in the shadow area to trap Loof's shadow on the green button, and then juggled Qookie and Peegue to get them all through the gates. A much more complicated process!

I've just watched the solution: he FIRST presses the button, THEN joins the cubes.

Then the button stays pressed.
If you're trying to press the button AS you're joining the cubes, it won't work. The game sticks the cubes together
before it realizes there's a button underneath one of them.
But if the button was pressed
before the cubes stick together, there's no reason for the game to UNpress the button, either.
