This level teaches you about the way that boxes interact with each other when sliding on ice. Includes built-in density tester!
Small hint:

(If you're watching the video soon after this was posted, bear in mind that YouTube may not have processed higher qualities yet. You should be able to get a maximum of 720p.)
Now that I've actually attached the level like a sane person, please enjoy!

This was fun, thanks!
I had 1:13 minutes left.

So presumably you found some tasty cheese, because there's no way you were 30 seconds faster taking the same route as my video.
Did you have any extra items in the top section left over after using your route?

Well I didn't look at the video - now that I did, I can see that I pushed a different sequence of items and also that I had one barrel unused because there was no need to kill this poor kaboom.

...alright then, how did you get the bonus coins without killing the Kaboom?

I just went in and picked them up - they were just lying there and there were no obstacles.

Hi cloud
Loof mastered the different densities.
Like Amnon I didn't harm the boomer. Thanks for the clever puzzles.

Oh. I am so stupid. You can just go onto the ice and get the coins. Whoops. I intended to use the exploding barrel to kill the Kaboom, meaning you had to not use it while solving the top area. Oh well.

And indeed one barrel was left unused, so it doesn't affect the top-area solution.

What I meant was, if you used both barrels solving the main puzzle, I intended for you to
not be able to access the bonus coins. The way I intended, you can only get the bonus coins if you have a leftover barrel to kill the Kaboom with. So to get gold you would need to solve the puzzle "perfectly", that is, only use one barrel. I hope that clarified things.

But why would I need a second barrel in the "main" puzzle? I cannot see how this could ease the situation - on the contrary, it would only destroy too many precious objects!

Bah, whatever. Early in development, I was using a solution which involved using both barrels before I found I only needed one. I guess changing the available boxes meant that route was not longer possible.
