Nothing changed, the map that is in the announcement is still the old one. I cannot find where a revised map has been sent to me, or a link to one posted in the thread. I can update the "View the map!' image and its ThumbNail once I have the current map image.

Maybe that's because I didn't put it in the thread but in a personal message. Anyway, I uploaded all the missing files again there: (link expired)

I am unable to open the Walkthrough doc file
I am stuck at the point where Shovelz digs up the SS. Do I go for SS after/before killing the enemy sword grunt nearby? Also neither my shovel or straw grunt have enough health left to encounter the sword enemy. They both die in one hit.

I think the DOC file might be broken... it for some reason opens up a text version of a website, instead of a walkthrough. rohit, do you have a screenshot of where exactly you are?

The file must have got corrupted somehow, because I am unable to open the downloaded version either. My copy of the document was working perfectly fine when I sent it, so I don't know what happened?
If you are talking about the last south-eastern island, then you should kill the enemy before pressing the QMS, or you won't be able to collect all coins. You must take the provided GunHat, which will be equipped by your Sponge Gun Grunt, after he teleports here of course.

Do you still have the working DOC file? I could then replace the corrupted one with it.

I'm afraid I deleted it months ago. Maybe GooRoo still has at least one version left on his computer (I sent it in more than one download link, though they are already expired) or else the only potential people that could have it would be you and Tomalla. Provided that someone actually looked at the walkthrough.

I do not have WORD, so could not actually view the Walk-through, but the link for it ... and for the download ... works.

I got past the SS and killed all the enemy Swords.
But I missed a lot of coins 1 in the center of a pool with green bridges. timing of bridge is too fast and only Spy can cross it but the Spy never gets to this area 1 next to a Cola and 3 bricks: red, black and brown. The Glovez never gets to this area 1 next to a Cola crate and a hole 1 in the end next to the King. The Bomber breaks one Red tile. How to blow up the brown and black tile.
Is it possible for you to email the proper doc Walkthrough?

GooRoo, you said you downloaded OpenOffice. How come you didn't open the document then? The download gives a broken 252kB file, and that isn't enough size to even save a picture that I put in it.
Rohit, from what I see you totally missed the first QMS. I can give you a tip that the Checkpoint Switchez on the first island are "empty" for a reason. And to get the last coin, you need to free up your Gauntletz Grunt.

Perhaps that download was on my previous computer ... the one that died. That was in mid-November, 2017 ... one month after the CL announcement was created (and, presumably, when the supporting files were submitted to me). I do not have it on this computer ... yet.
The file that I have on this computer is only 144KB, so it must be worse off than the one on the web host.

I believe that he might be referring to a QMS hidden in a mound near the starting point.

You can do this if you send the shovel grunt through the nearby empty checkpoint switch... while leading the gauntletz grunt through the checkpoint a bit below. It may seem like it would lead to a dead end, but it just requires some close examination...

I am using the Mozilla FireFox browser, and it is necessary (for me!) to use the refresh key (F5) to see the full image in the 3Mb range ... else it continues to show the 934Kb image.
Once you have refreshed the cache, you will continue to see the full image ... it will not revert to the smaller one.

Fun fact: If you change file extension of the map image from .png to .jpg, it will show the oldest version of the level without any changes.

There is now a video walkthrough of this level linked in the first post (and here), also recommended for those who don't plan to complete this map due to its difficulty (a lot more timing-based puzzles than in my later projects). I also have some speedruns of the first Standard Levelz on this YouTube channel. It's likely I'll record more gameplay videos over time, though I'm not sure which difficulty level should I set as the minimum if I were to record more walkthroughs of my own levels.
