I wasn't planning another level.
This one just sort-of happened.

Scrooge has trapped our Tiny Tim.
Help him sing his Christmas Carol.

Thanks to Andy for his festive "CloverBox". Amnon, this one is Peek-A-Boo Proof. :wink:

I will not repeat my previous mistake. I only looked at the editor because I was extremely short of time, as I am also right now. I will get to play this in a day or two, so I won't have to peek again.

Hey Mark,

Will you please tell me how to get into the cannon area?

Hi Anne,

Here's a general hint:
You need both the sphere and the steel box to access the cannon area.

What a workout this was!

Between the timing moves, the proper set-ups and the restarts I feel I definitely earned my gold star this time. :D

Thanks Mark, a fun challenge.

Sorry Bob :oops:

I made a practice level on the box-sphere collision.
Yes, I should have put a warning label on this one. :roll:

EDIT: I posted an update. The box-sphere puzzle is much easier now. :)
But I did remove a certain box to make another one more challenging. :wink:

Well due to the removal of boxes in the revised version, making it in time before the cannon shoots one box too many has become a matter of luck.

It's not a matter of luck, but waiting for the right moment.
Stand on the white button.
Tramp the cannon when it fires.
It works every time. :)
In fact, I even had time to spare. :wink:

But that's the very problem: you can't see when it fires!

But you can hear when it fires. :)

True, I didn't even think of that - my speakers are normally off!

Of course I can't get very far with this one either Mark :lol:

Yes, I see that Loof and the red sphere got separated, then there's no hope - they must go together!

Hi Mark

I couldn't figure out the moves with the red sphere on my own, so I needed your video again.
But the rest of the level was fun to play. Thanks again.

What an incredible level Mark.

I wouldn't have thought that move with the red sphere was possible, and it still isn't possible for me at the moment. I need more practice.

Thanks for another brilliant brain teaser. :piratesmile:
