      To get B on R, tap on R body.

      Another superb level. Two in a row and the miss move close to the end was showcasing your design skills. I didn’t use that flamboyant move but simply let R walk clockwise back with the ball moved. I had another difference in that i used the opening move twice. Loved the use of the balls and the dilemma of how many are needed and when.
    • mastersifu
      @ridgerunner To be honest, that flamboyant move you mentioned wasn't part of the intended gameplay and instead this - "simply let R walk clockwise back with the ball moved" is. I think that move was done by accident as I move the ball too soon before R completely walks across. I'm always very glad when you commented as you always found alternative in my levels. Thanks for playing, commenting and rating! By the way, happy birthday!

      Clever level with the most annoying start (for me). Not a herding fan, but I liked that one.

      Thanks for sharing :thumbsup:

      @R 'oland Thanks for playing, commenting and rating! Yep, I knew it was going to be annoying to some players so I made it be the opening move.

      This is very, very difficult for me. Forgive me my friend.
      I figured out how to start - go through the zapper. But hitting the autopilot on the zapper's head and jumping on the wedge - I couldn't guess. I watched the video.
      I really like the star on the stick! You need to know this - the stick will become passable if there is a zapper head under it. I think this is a very cool move !!!

      I was able to push the ball over the stairs with B. I took your last star first. Using autopilot. B crashes out of the level and can be returned with BB.
      This is all that I managed)))). The level is very difficult for me.

      I can not understand!!!?? How the R in your video goes down from the grass block - 4-49??? How??
    • mastersifu
      @Denis Nazin Thanks for playing and leaving your reviews! I'm pleased that you like the elevated zapper move. Good for you to find your own way to get the star on stone pillar. And I want to clarify the last move at 4:49 here. It is not intended. The correct way should be like this - simply let R walk clockwise back with the ball moved. I think that move was done by accident as I move the ball too soon before R completely walks across. Thanks again for trying my levels. I very appreciate the effort you put into it.

      Tricky logic combined with some cool & unusual moves. Definitely taxes your knowledge of bot behavior (I came up short here, myself).

      I managed to figure out the first move on my own, but not whole lot else, I'm afraid, so I appreciated your solution video! Some tips & hints for other players:
      B can get past Z without getting zapped if Z is in the long-legs position. You can hold Z in this position by holding the nearby draggable. But this move can still fail if B moves when Z isn't in the highest long legs position -- I think that careful timing is the key. I got zapped many times even when I was doing it "right" b/c my timing was slightly off.
      It goes against one's instinct of self-preservation to tap on the head of a zapper bot, and yet this level has two ways to do it safely!
      There is a hidden Pillar R whose head you can just see. It's a little too low to walk on, but if you could get it to get into long legs mode...
      R can ride on Z. (I haven't seen too many levels where this happens.) B can ride on R with the right mounting block (e.g., a stair), or the "tap on head" hint in @mastersifu 's original post.

      @Buurmas Thanks for playing and providing some useful tips/hints! I like the spoiler - Conquer your fears. Not an obvious one which explained the moves indirectly but still very helpful! By the way,
      Is it not so common to ride a zapper bot? I saw a few players commented on it in another level too.

      Oof, the first step is too hard for me. I tried to do it for a long time, but it seems i won't be able to complete the level.
    • mastersifu
      @Br0K3N I'm so sorry to hear that. But I'm grateful to you as well for trying my level! Thank you! By the way, are you using a mouse to play? If yes, then it must be very frustrating to get the first move done as you'll have to move your cursor very fast to get that timing. Thanks for playing again!

      @Br0K3N, for me, the key to the first step is to realize that Z is kind of doing a double long-leg. Z goes up & then up some more. You have to wait to move B when Z is all the way up & then hold the draggable. The timing is more precise than I realized at first. If you tap when Z is only partway up, B might still get zapped. I am someone who knows this firsthand. :rotf: (Playing on an Android phone.)
    • Buurmas
      @mastersifu, I personally haven't seen R mounting Z that often, but that could just reflect my limited experience. It's a neat move, though! Re: "conquer your fears", see also this cpw level.
    • mastersifu
      @Buurmas To be honest, I can do the first move about 8/10 times so I thought it will be easy to master the timing after some restarts(That's why I put it as opening move). Perhaps you can observe Z's movement there and hold the draggable when it's at its highest position and kind of float in the air. That's when you let B out.
