      Nice use of various new "features." There was some superfluous art and maybe not the prettiest design, but functional and playable (i.e. not buggy or otherwise problematic). Some more details behind this spoiler:
      - there are two ways to get down from the ball drop platform (at the top of the lift);
      - the noodly appendage sometimes comes out of its socket on its own;
      - it's quite hard to knock the second ball down;
      - I have no idea what the electrical bank is for;
      - although likely unavoidable, I prefer a game space that is contained, i.e. one where B does not need to walk off the set and come back from another side;
      - And on a positive note, I did like having to look for the hidden draggable (as frustrating as it was).
      Thank you for what was an involved and unique level!

      That wasn't exactly intended but I don't think it was necessarily harmful.
      There is no way around this without making it too difficult to unplug the noodle.
      From the right angle it's actually quite easy.
      You found a shortcut solution. The intended solution was to deal with the zapper block. That's one of the funnest parts of the level too. :) One can actually play the whole level without touching the floor.
      Given that the noodle eventually falls out, seeing that happen can a bit surprising.

      I'll be releasing a fixed version.

      Thanks for the feedback.

      Good level,i liked that every element has to be used more times. Sometimes the noodly appendage is really difficult and frustrating to move.I don't know if moving the ball with the noodly appendage is the intended solution

      Yes, the appendage should be used to knock of the balls in. From the right angle (looking diagonally across the level it's pretty easy to do. The thing certainly is temperamental though. :confused:

      OK my finger hurts now! Wow what a fight with the noodle, its got action. Very well done, not too hard to figure out but getting it done is hard!

      Very original logic/ability level...BTW
      I only push one ball with the noodle appendage...the second I push it using B...Am I missing something?
