Ceilings Fan 2

B is going on another low ceiling adventure. More info in the comments. UPDATE: I posted an alternate version of this level in the first comment. The new version removes a few potential shortcuts.

      The only trick required is Low Ceilings (aka Claustrophobia). If B steps under something right above B's head, B will keep moving to a spot with more headroom.

      If you start B on a low ceiling path, B will try to continue on that original path even if you change what's in front of B.

      The low ceiling trick won't work if there isn't anywhere B can go to get out from under the low ceiling.

      UPDATE: Here's an alternate version of the level with a few potential shortcuts removed:

      I think this is low ceiling + autopilot trick.
      Nice level and I always like low ceiling trick. I didn't use the slope slider and the mechanism on the ground. I used a weird way to collect the star on the curved rail. The other four stars are fun.
    • MekaSage
      @mastersifu - I was wondering what kind of shortcuts people would find. It seems like the more sliders there are the more likely it is that there will be shortcuts.

      Thanks for playing and commenting!

      @MekaSage I can do a video if you want to see how I done it.
    • MekaSage
      @mastersifu - after you mentioned you found a different way to get the star on the curved rail I did find a shortcut to that star. I would be curious to see your method if you have time to make a video. (But if you're busy, no need).
    • MekaSage
      I also found a way to get the star on top of the center platform without using R (although I wouldn't call it a shortcut, because it was more challenging!).
    • mastersifu
      @MekaSage Here's my walkthrough of the level. Sorry as it's a bit long as I forgot some of the moves, so I was recalling the moves while recording. You can fast forward to the final minute for the star on curved rail.
      I just played your 2.1 and I used the same gameplay as shown in the video.

      I didn't use the bottom gear either. I wonder why he is?)). I'd love to watch your video walkthrough - if you do.

      I didn't use autopilot, and I followed your rules - only use low ceiling! It seems to me that only the lowest hidden star I accidentally took with auto-plotting. But the rest of the stars - I diligently built a low ceiling! It was very interesting and challenging. Therefore, even without using the lower mechanism, for me it is 5! Thanks. ;)
    • MekaSage
      @mastersifu - thanks for the video! Many of your moves were different from mine, which is cool. I like the fact that there are multiple solutions (as long as there's still some challenge...I don't mind shortcuts so much when they still take some creativity and thought).

      The way I solved it only used R for the 2 stars on the center platform. For the other 3 I used low ceilings autopilot (and no traditional autopilots).
    • Denis Nazin
      I watched the video @mastersifu , my gameplay is completely different! Completely different. Only the top star which is taken by B from the head of R is the same for me. The rest is different)))). I have a lot more low ceiling). I realized that there are a lot of options at your level! But the lower mechanism was not useful to anyone :rotf:;)
    • mastersifu
      @MekaSage So what's the use of the mechanism there? And I just noticed there's a horizontal slider in mid air. Didn't use it too.
    • MekaSage
      @mastersifu and @Denis Nazin - I spent so much time making that mechanism, then missed an easy shortcut making it unnecessary, lolo_O:eek:. I'll record a video of the intended play when I get a chance. In the meantime, I made another update to the level that patches that shortcut in case you're interested.
