First impressions were :shock:

Then I played it for 30 mins and I can't see a non-pulley solution :(

Please tell me I'm wrong, because does anyone actually enjoy making pulleys?

Then again, maybe it's possible but damn, it's A league.

Maybe it's a little hard for A leaue, but it is very well possible to do without pulley.
Made my POC (without pulley) in about 30mins.

Hi votart. I did look at the level in editor, but to see any solutions I'm gonna have to play (or download) end1 to end40. No time for that atm.

v4ank, if you're still puzzled, there are 2 things that are not obvious at first but you should have noticed by now. Both are very helpfull to make a "clean" solution.

Why 2?

Because there are 2 things. One of them is the size. The whole spiral is only 2.5 by 2.5 barlengths (looks bigger because the dillo is smaller than original) The other thing you probably found already.

Your words strange :?:
To look any solution from levelset it is necessary to download it and to rename into the single level. :D

1 hours play, no solution. Game over for me.

I don't have time this week to fight just to get a POC. I can see the general idea about how to do it but I can't get it to work in the short time I have.

That's why you don't see me in the B league much either.

Found a solution, but I won't tweak it, it's so balanced...

Hi dudes!
As i see you r still getting armadillo run forum alive! Very good!
Very hard level for A league imho. But maybe your skills grown up significantly, or I forgot all my skills =)
P.S. Do you still remember me, guys? ;)

EDIT:
It took me 45 minutes to make dark 1192 PoC (with 3 timers and 1 compressed rubber). Skill is totally lost =)

EDIT 2:
15 minutes more to remove tensioned rubber and 1 timer. 1580 now =)
2 timers are awaiting removal =)

EDIT 3:
20 minutes more to remuve second timer. 1776 and 1 more timer to go.

EDIT 4:
Done. No timers, 1950+
