      @ohmytian - Thanks for the video - the opening B move missed the star so I auto piloted back up on the white space to try again and after 5 attempts and the star wasn't collected so I had to check and the video was helpful. B moved on and the ball at 27 seconds rolled inward and I seen no purpose for it. After many more attempts, the ball rolled inward every time so to the video - now I had a problem as the ball needs to stay put....

      Back to the opening move. After all those attempts, B can get the opening star in both directions. B had a better success going up the stairs but I assume (don't tell me) there is a better way.

      @Meko Guy The opening star isn't need to be collected at first, you can always try the jump moves whenever you want. If B missed the star and lands on the white space, no autopilot is needed as well as I added stair to the white. In the video I also needed two attempts for B to jump high enough. There's no other way to get that star. Trust B's jumping ability!

      The ball at 27 seconds. Do you mean that the ball roll inwards even though the slider is in place? The ball is to
      freeze and unfreeze R bot there

      @ohmytian - I didn't get that far yet... R is still up top. The ball at 27 rolls inward so B can't go around and get the other ball. The ball at 27 seconds will not go into the corner so B can pass. Again, I assume B must go around as I haven't watched the video any further than 30 seconds.

      Edit - Didn't answer your question...
      Yes - a bad roll I guess

      Impressive video with reuse of the obvious jump but i saw this level as a much simpler skill based level and had not a need to look for more complex gameplay .
      i took the highest star last by firstly dropping B off from the lever onto the curved rail. I then did the same with R landing on head of B. After taking the lowest star , used the low ceiling effect of the vertical lever to get in behind R after blocking so that R turns to the lever. A few moves then to squeeze R onto the lever and drop onto B for the aforementioned last star.

      @ridgerunner That was a clever use of the rotor which I didn't see. The shortcut can be closed pretty easily by just removing the curved rail. Thank you very much for playing!

      I considered going 4 stars as the fun factor was lost in this level and the 2nd highest star collection wasn't stable.

      My fun factor was lost as I had way too many restarts and you had some obscure moves that I didn't see. This level required 1½ hours to solve so you can imagine how many restarts we are talking.

      I seen the stationary eye above but didn't see getting the ball in place so didn't do that move. The move at 1:34 never happened if I was trying to get it. Assuming there must be a more stable way, I used R on B and that required a few attempts to get the stack but as long as R didn't go into the tunnel then a restart wasn't required.

      The move at 1:06 - I didn't do it so I used the rotor to get B on R - I sent you a conversation on that already so that wasn't very stable or fun either. I got the high star first and then the high ball. Getting B on the other side of R required a tap and miss as I didn't see the move at 3:30.
      The level was small with lots of moves crammed in. The possible options made for a complex and/or obscure level.

      Forgot to say how i got to the high ball without the fancy moves
      with the lever vertical and B having passed below the lever , up the step and as far as possible, tap the step and rotete the lever fully down and B will autopilot onto the lever.
    • ridgerunner
      @ohmytian .. the curved rail looked as if it had been placed specifically for that move.
    • ohmytian
      @Meko Guy Thank you very much for playing and for the full stars but I had to say rating isn't the reason I built. The 2nd high star - yes, it does took a few attempts for B to make that jump high enough but most importantly, it didn't force a restart. It's a pity you didn't see most of the moves as I thought they're pretty good. For example, I started the level with the B jump move to let the players know a ball on an eye can cause B to leap forward. Then it's up to the player to figure the move to get B onto R. Thanks again for playing and taking so much time on this level.

      @ridgerunner I didn't see the moves in your high ball spoiler as I was thinking all logic moves so didn't see the tricky ones. And the curved rail is just my design habit to put a rail wherever beside a ball. Never thought that it could be so misleading!

      @ohmytian .. I have been brainwashed by playing so many of @Meko Guy levels where everything has a purpose .
    • Meko Guy
      @ohmytian -
      I didn't see how to set the move up until I seen the nudge in the video let alone what the move was for.... Seeing the rotor bot drop onto another bot was easier to see and more common so that will hit most players first.

      As I did not see the...
      use of that ball to do B jumps
      my solution changed a bit but I won without using tricks... my ways involved a skill move but not very difficult...
      To put B on R I used the "rotor"- draggable :sneaky:
      thanks for sharing & for the fun @ohmytian ;)

      @delator77 Thank you for playing! Perhaps I should let the ball lies on the eye so the players won't have to nudge it. But I'm also glad that you found your own way for the stack!
    • Sun Eagle
      @ohmytian I agree. That ball need to lie on eye first or make it easy to push. I can see all gameplay but not sure push that ball is intended way.
