Star Penguin

Cottage Roof

A small cottage, surrounded by a rising lake... Help B and R reach the chimney to send off a distress signal - perhaps they will be rescued before the water rises any higher!

      A few hints:
      R has trouble pushing the ball if he is on stairs because his posture is too low. But if his brother B is behind him he may stand up straight.
      B and R used to take diving lessons! Both sides of the roof can be used to dive into the water... or perhaps onto something else.

      Water doesn't rise in mekorama, so I don't get the urgency. :rolleyes: The double use got me for a while, nice puzzle.

      Not often a fall off a roof is enjoyable. Nice design.

      FRUSTRATED :mad: but happy it's over :). I used the hints as I couldn't get R out. You and your hidden stuff!!
      My problem was, R wouldn't dive on the side that I wanted. B even went up to force it but nothing. After 5 restarts, B tried another push and that worked but B missed landing on R. Another restart and this time the 2nd ball wouldn't fall, B was there but R wouldn't extend legs??, another restart, same, another restart, this time a two LUCKY DIVEs to the win.

      I think you were trying to get R to dive toward the front of the level in the screenshot? R is supposed to dive off the back onto B, and he'll walk to the other side. Then B can dive off the front onto R.

      Once you understand how the trick affects each robot the solution is pretty obvious. Very nice logic level. Thanks!
      The trick to push R with B to have him stand straight and push the ball isn't always consistent, however, sometimes R pushes it without help so it's not a big deal.

      Exquisite level where everything is used perfectly.
    • meko
      And it's just my personal opinion,
      Those blocks at the corners give an unpleasant effect to water.
    • gmacpro
      @Star Penguin - No B pushed R off and then leaped onto R and walked up to the win. That I guess wasn't the intended way?
    • Star Penguin
      @meko I've been going back and forth trying to decide between sideways stairs and sideways wedges to make the corners of the level inaccessible. :D I guess you would prefer wedges to stairs? ;)

      @gmacpro No, that wasn't the intended way. The trick only works for each bot in one direction, although apparently you can make it work in both directions with a bit of luck. ;)

      I had a lot of pleasure to solve it. The symmetric path is nicely done. Thanks!
