      Ball walking, claustrophobia, Hercules push
      There are actually two songs in the level title - "On the Road Again" is a country music song by Willie Nelson from his 1980 album "Honeysuckle Rose", and while I normally can't stand country music, I like this song... Willie is a rebel and a rocker. The song has been done by many others, but Willie's version is the best.
      It's also "Back on the Road Again", a song from REO Speedwagon, from their 1979 album "Nine Lives", and it is the closest thing they came to solid rock (aside from the live version of "Riding the Storm Out") - most of the rest of their stuff is too quiet for my tastes.

      A little easier than usual, but enough cool path design to hang up the fourth star. The last album Willie put out with Waylon Jennings has one of the all-time great titles ... "If We'd Known We'd Live This Long We'd Have Taken Better Care of Ourselves." :rotf::rotf::rotf:

      It's a 5 for me, :D:D! I enjoyed looking for a safe place for B to hide when Z was around, and the design is so good. Your levels are always inviting and B can't wait to get running around exploring, :thumbsup::D:thumbsup::D!

      I just got in from work, downloaded 3 levels to unwind, and B was determined we should play this one first, ;):rotf:!

      As a relatively new player, I see levels like this and just have no idea how they're even possible to complete. I'd love a video solution for this one, or is there somewhere where I can learn about things like the
      "Hercules push"
      ?

      @PloKoon Hercules push is a variation of autopilot. Get B on that double block lift, bring it up to the top, and tap the last grass block up there, but before B can get off the lift, yank it back down - B will try to get to that spot, and along the way he'll push the big metal blocks in front of him.

      Also, check out the Tutorials section of the site (https://mekoramaforum.com/media/categories/tutorials.2/) - lots of levels there to instruct new folk as to what not to do, and how to do certain tricks.

      @Ahnaf ZX I had to play with that a bit in order to get the right combination of blocks so that it was stable... but it works. :thumbsup:
    • D.S.Masters
      @Ray Aznable The red brick is a habit with me, because of the way I build a level - the red brick will always be at the 'top' of the level card.

      @Don G Rowe The 'Shoe' comic strip did something like that a few years ago - a reporter is talking to a mortician, asking about the excitement they had, and the mortician said that Keith Richards was brought in by accident again. :D
