1490+ Agh, It cost so much money to pay for a catcher at the end. :wink:

!700+L...
Catcher costs 184. Someone should be able to do much much better.

Hey, that's a good start. I'm sure with more tweaking you will get the cost down.

Yes the catcher at the end is going to cost some money. There is no cheap trick to it.

Take a look here viewtopic.php?f=8&t=1650&p=18805&hilit=reach#p18805 at the results for ideas on how to bridge that gap.
That competition was an extreme version of the end of this level and should give you some ideas at least.

$1700+ L done. :)

I will keep tweaking as I'm expecting CN to come in with a $1800 soon!

Is the level entertaining to play?

I actually made four new ones during the last week and chose this one because I thought it offered the most freedom for different solutions.

I've just been having a go at it myself. My first solution is looking at around 1730 if I tweaked the catch. So I think 1750+ should be possible with some time. Don't quote me on that though. It's a fairly wild guess.

1750+ without major tweaking :wink:
So i guess the winner one should be somewhere near 18 K

Come on ddavex, I'm rooting for you to win. :D

Nothing from CN yet, this is his type of level. Not to mention Cresta and TSchultz who are both capable of coming in with a crazy score.

Nice work too ToonyMan. As you learn the tricks you will soon be slicing off those $$$$ in big chunks.

Hmm...
Don't count on me, I am not actually so good with this kind of catchers... I like very much the first part, but I get stuck on the second.. :(

For those of you that know me, I'm back.
And for those that don't, I'm the forums biggest loser (at the time) and I'm back.

as for my score, 1570+-, and not likely to improve.

The catcher's tough.
