      Robo City, home town to B and his droid friends and, unfortunately, enemies. Collect stars to be able to afford to live in this throbbing metropolis.

      The spoiler video is an example path only.

      There are accidental perceived shortcuts but they could cost stars. I'm sure the ones I have missed will soon be picked up by eagle eyed forum members.

      There are two potential instabilities which have hopefully been minimised to odds of 1 in 20 or more.
      L or R droids carrying large loads are very finely balanced and can be 'derailed' by obstructions.
      The single ball drop in the level requires the ball to sit on a flat surface to remain in place during gameplay area expansion. This can result in failure to drop when nudged, but extensive testing indicates a low probability of this happening. However I am a great believer in Murphy's Law, "Anything that can possibly go wrong, does". If you are also a devotee of the Law it makes sense to tackle this task first to minimise time lost if a restart required to get the star.

      As always when piggybacking on a droid head, rather than flat surface, baby steps are advised. Spare provided.

      As with all my levels, not intellectually challenging but hopefully fun.

      An impressive massive construction with good dynamic soldiers.

      Great idea. Interesting gameplay. You already had gameplay based on the fact that - "B can't walk on blocks outside the level, but R-L can!". I like it.

      SUPER design as always. Robots and helicopters - loved it.:thumbsup:
    • MekoMole
      Thanks @ridgerunner for playing, kind comments and generous rating. I'm always impressed that you are usually first out of the starting blocks, just like a greyhound at Shawfield. I don't know where you find the time and energy to gobble up levels at the speed you do.
    • MekoMole
      Thanks @Denis Nazin for rating so highly. As you say I've used the fact that R-L can walk on blocks outside the level before. However it is possible for B to accidentally land on a block outside the level and this obviously causes problems as once there he is stuck.
      I'm glad that you like the design, I thought perhaps this one was a bit OTT, but as you know I like a big canvas. :)
      Finding it hard to keep up with your prodigous output these days but appreciating the variety of stuff you are discovering and creating. Your new persona as Metal Bunny sounds very Pop Culture.

      Impressive! Realistic! Super! I like how you put your name there:rotf: cute helicopters and robots. Thanks for the fun @MekoMole :thumbsup:
    • MekoMole
      Thanks @BLR for playing and such kind comments and most generous rating. It was a bit of self advertising putting in the name but I couldn't resist. It's very gratifing when someone goes through one's back catalogue and takes the trouble to post a review. Thank you.

      Thank you @Sammy 5 for kind comments and generous rating. It is a big area to cover so I'm glad you still found it fun to play. Thanks for playing.

      Yeppers, this had me flummoxed for a bit, but I got there. I watched VS after and I duped it step for step, except 3rd star...B did an autopilot to land on the platform.
      Very cool Robo City! My eyes widened when I saw those massive bots; they made me smile.:):D:thumbsup:
    • MekoMole
      Thank you very much MomoKeego for such positive and generous feedback. I'm glad the massive bots appealed to you, they can get a bit tempramental and run amok sometimes. I appreciate you browsing my back catalogue. It's good to know that the levels aren't lying dormant gatgering dust.
