      I really wanted to rate it 5 but...
      The push which was required after getting the ball in the hole worked once in 7 tries. It was hidden too...
      But overall it was a good level with few blocks but good logic;)

      @ADM I intended it to be a small level with non-trivial solution. I do really try in such cases to make the player exclude all other option, looking for the solution in hidden places, or through out of the box thinking. The first step is hidden, the latter out of the box (I hope). Thanks for the feedback!

      Nice misdirection. I did it same way as video and it works almost every time.

      Very clever with the misdirection. After reading @ADM's comment, I figured it was just not working for me but I wasn't doing it right. I needed the video but stopped it at 1 second and figured the rest out. Between the 2 pushes like @ADM said, my device wasn't stable.
      On the side push, more often than not, the mechanism would shoot out too far and on the B push you better push HARD.

      | The cactus is bluffing and it beat me for several times. I give it a plus one for being different, I mean out of the box. I really enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing :thumbsup:

      Less than 5 stars means "you're doing it wrong." :rotf: This is a great example of why Mekorama is so endlessly entertaining. :)

      With the little space, I couldn't fit an 'all speeds will do' mechanism, but I didn't mind that and liked the delicate vs. hard move combination.

      @Don G Rowe Thanks!

      Very smart and creative. I liked the scenery, simple but beautiful.

      Sneaky and simple. And fun. And five stars. And had no difficulty with the intended solution.

      Very intelligent level with great misdirection, but I am not fin of those kind of hidden things...
      Thanks!

      In my opinion, hidden things at this level are not annoying at all:oops:. When we discover them, they are very attractive:p. Thank you for this beautiful cactus:rolleyes:;)

      I do not know if I'm just like that or you're too. In the first step of solving a level, I'm looking for the shortcut and the weaknesses:oops:.

      @hadi
      No iam not looking for the shortcuts, when i tried that misdirected way and nothing happened then i found intended soln.after completing it, iam looking at design then i realised that he avoided that TOA trick to prevent shortcut:) [/SPOIL
