Here's my second-ever custom level...

[Gaby]

interesting puzzlez... keep on the good work... got the perfect...

[uni]

oh please... anyone who would just give me a hint how to start? Since days Im trying to start, but just cant see the solution?!

[oldone]

Try jumping on the tops of trees.

[uni]

rofl Thank you soooo much!!! :-)))
feeling like a monkey now...

[Gaby]

and when you do so don't forget to jump to the west too (a very well hidden coin is there)...

[uni]

Thank you Gaby, I got the perfect ;-)

[Carmen]

This is the only level I could download thanks to the link in the post....I still can open any of the other images or levels? The server still not working?

Anyway, I am stuck at the first CPS, I seem to need the shovel and the spring at the other CPS but I can't do that as the shovel is needed to close the 2 holes to be able to get to his CPS....I am confused, please help, there is NO WAY I can get either of my gruntz to cross where the Rolling ball is.
Thank you

Did you noticed that the CPS haves no Toolz associated whit them? In that case, There should be a way to exchange your two gruntz of row . Look closely every possibilitiez and you'll find... Sometimez thingz aren't what they seemz to be... You know what I mean?

EDIT: I corrected my spelling mistake in the word "exange"
REEDIT: In that post, i assume that "CPS" meanz Checkpoint Switch. Is that the correct meaning?

[Carmen]

Good morning Mandew! I am not sure about the time difference from Spain and Canada, so have patience with me.

Yes CPS means Check Point Switch according to the list I have.

I am old and very dense but I still can not see a way out of the CPS, I have tried every tile for the Barehand gruntz or the others to move out of the rooling rock but no luck so far...... Any other bit of help for me, please?

Thank you

Carmen

[Mandew]

Ok... When you arrive at the CPS, you should have the Spring Grunt in the Nothern row, and the Shovel in the Southern row. Then the Shovel Grunt Openz the Hole Beneath the RR'z track, and The RR fallz in the hole.

Now to have the two Gruntz at the correct CPS, you must switch thier places... For this, make one of your Grunt go above the Purple Switches (where a tree is), and you'll notice that it is a safe tile. You can use this to switch the placez of the Gruntz.

[Carmen]

Thanks very much, I am off to try this.

Sorry Mandew,

If I have the Spring on the North row and the Shovel on the South row, the Spring is not able to jump over 2 holes to get to the CPS!

I still cannot find any "safe" tile to move to!!!

[Carmen]

Sorry Mandew, I hope you can understand this, I forgot how to do "quotes"

[Mandew]

Err ok... I'll try to write this step-by-step:

1. Shovel grunt step into the Green Teleporter, and go on the upper row, on the purple switch;
2. Springz step into the GT and go on the southern row;
3. BH go on the green switch;
4. Shovel grunt close one of the holez to his left, return on the purple switches, and go one tile north;
5. BH step off the GS;
6. Spring grunt go 2 tilez north, on the northern purple switch;
7. BH step on the GS;
8. Spring go to the northern Purple Switch;
9. Bh step off the GS;
10. Shovel grunt go on the southern switch;
11. Bh step on the GS;
12. Shovel Grunt close the hole and go on the southern CPS.

I hope that helped.

to make a quote you just press the botton "quote" in the message you like to quote that'll open a new reply with the quote in it...
about the CL... while shovelz is in the lower row he closes the hole and then change placez with springz...

[Carmen]

thanks for your patience, I feel a right idiot.

I was so sure I had click on EVERY tile around that area.

I am off now, when I come back I'll try to give the toys to the enemy and get into the wormhole

[Gaby]

you do not need to do that... dig out some arrowz, lure the enemy (one at a time) to the arrow pointing north and kill them (one at a time)...

[Mandew]

OMG! I forgot that detail ... The Arrowz were pointing for coinz, initially... And I forgot that use of arrowz...

Well, make sure to pick-up the toyz anyway, because you need to pick them up if you want the
PERFECT!
