Lol, we will see...

Rob, You need to know that I have more than 2880?
2882+ :lms:
But for the same reason of the dark score I won't go on raising... maybe tomorrow! :D


Ok, I'll set the new score to 2890+ :lms: and wait patiently.......

Hi Mark, it took me 4 bars and a few bits of rope to open the gate so I think you are closer to the right track than I am, if there is an easier way nobody will tell you until after the contest. A few weeks ago I don't think I could have got inside this one never mind getting into the portal, this game is a case of do your best and patiently follow a learning curve. :)

I am now at 2965 :dms: (not likely to improve :( ) and yet again will be learning more when the solutions are revealed, adding to the knowledge to score more in the next one :wink: This is the first one I have played and not been able to get a half decent Light solution, I have to admit I cannot see any Light way into the portal, I had to use some demolition for my Dark one to work :?

I'd have 3000+ :dms: if I knew how to avoid that timer. I like the metallic effect this level casts when rotating the camera (shift+ctrl)

Ioncorpse: He probably used a timer to release the mechanism that raises the dillo in the portal.

Overlord: If you get the dillo near the portal pretty quick you can create a cheap timer using a metal bar that is almost straight up. If it takes a bit longer you have to use a trigger (break a strategicaly placed item with the weight of the dillo) wich is usualy a little more expensive and a lot harder to make.

Thanks for the advice, but my brain is just not capable of making up a trigger... I need just that ONE timer for the portal, can't avoid it :|

3140+ :dms:
Funny thing - I have two solutions with same score, but they can be merged into one, which is 10$ less expensive. :mrgreen: If i'll have access to :armadillo: tomorrow - I definitely will tweak it. :wink:

P.S. How do you think Cresta, is it possible (theoretically) to break through :dms: 3187?

I'm only at 2893 :lms: but I have an almost working 2900+
Kinda depends on the weather how much time I'll have to tweak that but I doubt if I'll be able to raise you another 10 Cresta.
