As-of about 11:40AM today (Saturday, June 23rd, 2007) I am testing (verifying) this CL to see if it is ready for release. Every CL that I am able to verify today will be sent out after the baseball game is over, probably around eleven hourz from now.

Well, I am giving up on this one ... as least for today. Too many Blue Wormholez with no clue as to which Gruntz goez through to the unknown destinationz. And too many tight timing mini-puzzlez stacked together. And after about a dozen triez, I was totally unable to get past TWO SuicideBomber Gruntz, one from the north and one from the west, with no 'maneuvering' space. Those guyz travel at three timez the speed of the solver's Grunt, and while I was able to dodge away from one kamikaze blast, there was no way for me to make it four spacez to safety from the other one ... I couldn't even make it to the corner before #2 ran into me.  Perhapz a Grunt with Spy Gear might solve this one, but GooberStraw certainly could not ... and I still needed one more Goo Puddle to bake another (needed) Grunt, so without avoiding those two kamikaze craziez, I could not make it to the BLue Wormhole that might have taken me to the fourth Goo Puddle. I did manage to find the first(?) Secret that allowed me to gather up three Coinz. (Of course, I may have missed a Secret before I got to the one I actually found.) |

I have beta-tested this level and nearly gotten a PERFECT, but I missed a red warp, I had an idea of where it was, but had no clue how to trigger it. As for those bomberz, you can suck up the puddle from your intial landing. Attract the bomber north of you dodge his attack at near the last second. Now the west one is attacking you, you should have enough time to get away from him too.  Just a swift movement. Edit: there is one puddle.  |

I have beta-tested this level and nearly gotten a PERFECT, but I missed a red warp, I had an idea of where it was, but had no clue how to trigger it. As I mentioned, I found one ... no telling how many there are, since I was unable to get even close to bringing the Warpstone to the King. There was only one Goo Puddle in the SuicideBomber area, that I could see.Much too tight timing for these old fingerz ... a dozen attemptz without rounding the corner to avoid the second kamikaze run. Several timez I avoided the first run, only to be exploded out of the game two squarez away from the corner ... and I needed two squarez around the corner to safety. The western SuicideBomber Grunt needz a reduction in the "seez an enemy" value, so that the solve can eliminate one enemy at a time. There are still a few other CLz I can try that I have a much better chance of verifying than this one. It is on my 'back burner' for now. |

I'm sorry for these puzzlez.... this is a bit old level, and, you know, I'm not a good designer like BattlezM, Gamer, ILoveGruntz etc., and I didn't have much puzzle ideaz when I first designed this level.
So, you may forgot this level, and, if you have time, try other level from me (such as MiniGolf) that do not have so tight timing puzzlez.

I'm going to re-Design this level once I finish my current High on Sweetz project.  Don't worry GooRoo, it won't have tight timing puzzlez. This is a level I don't want to delete completely, so I'll keep some puzzlez (As I did in Tropical Danger, re-design of an old and bad level, I kept a great puzzle), which are not only timing. |

I made my way to get the perfect on this custom level  I didn't have that much trouble with the suicide bombers, but had have a hard time at the end of the level figuring out what to do with the goober plate Thanks a lot SwordGrunt for this challenging level  |

Are you serious? I thought it wasn't a good level. I'm glad you liked it. LavaRiver2 is still in progress, along with some other CLZ (SnowyAdventure, SP Gamma, MagicalCasino, ToyLandVI, TropicalDanger and a lot other not-started yet CL ideaz ). It will be similar to the original but with more challenging puzzlez.  |

I'm at the part where my straw hits the switchez for the ball to roll to the BO switch. Then I get gauntletz and start breaking the brickz and killing the bricklayerz while avoiding the bird. After breaking the last brick, I am stuck. I have 2 gruntz in the oven but no where for them to go. I see a lot of straw checkpointz, but no strawz anywhere. What did I do wrong??  |

Isn't there a wormhole out off of an isolated plateau with a creation point? |

But remember you're not going to use that creation point more than once. Now to where to get that Goober Straw. IIRC, you should get two megaphonez; gauntletz and gooberz. Give gauntletz to your Sword Grunt (not to me ) and gooberz when he finishez all the breaking stuff. |

I'm confused. After I hit the sword checkpoint and my straw and gauntlet stand on the PS's to let the sword pass the purple pyramid, I get the megaphone which calls for a straw. I have a gauntlet and straw for tools, but no gruntz in the oven. Don't I have to get the straw to suck up the goo of the 6 gruntz standing there?? Then I lose the straw for another grunt to get. |

You can get a straw from a thief grunt. |

Don't suck the goo from the 6 gruntz; just kill them. You would suck only 6 puddlez and that isn't enough. Straw and gauntletz will get smashed in order for the Sword Grunt to proceed. (if I left the "Author:" field blank this might be a clue to who designed the level. ) |

I got the PERFECT. I really got fooled by all that goo that was available and gave in to temptation, which is what got me into trouble. Thank you for the great level.  |

Perhapz a Grunt with Spy Gear might solve this one, but GooberStraw certainly could not ... and I still needed one more Goo Puddle to bake another (needed) Grunt, so without avoiding those two kamikaze craziez, I could not make it to the BLue Wormhole that might have taken me to the fourth Goo Puddle.
