That was what I originally tried, but I couldn't figure out how to get the crate past the arrows while they were turned on, so I thought I had to do the second part with them turned off.

Ohhh...... I see it! The second time its not the ball that hits the orb. Thats what i get for overcomplicating things! Thanks, Gustavo.

PS: The new screenshot is looking good!

Level 4 3e1n has got me stuck. I'm sure it's something simple, but I can't see how to get a single roach out of there. Please, someone assure me that there's a way to do this.

It's possible. Try to get one roach out, ignoring the others - once you figure out the trick to getting roaches out, figuring out how to do so without trapping other roaches is easier.

I can't possible imagine a way to kill the roach to the left. (Have to admit though that I might be losing patience too early 'cause I suspect there's a room design bug).



Failed ideas that might be related to bugs:



Help please!

Edit: I just realise that almost certainly it's a bug (not room design but more important).

There is no bug in the L 15 2w.

There's a strange thing that looks like a bomb in 1W but doesn't seem to do anything. The boomerang doesn't affect it

Where exactly? (Press f12 and move the mouse over it to discover the tile coordinate).

It's just a single black tile. Notice the borders.

Play again l15 1w (from right to left, Bottom passage), this is suposed to be a mini tutorial about bombs x boomerang( I need a scroll to explain more about it). Anyway, how's your progress now?

I'll try to do that later. I'm almost certain that I didn't use the bomb effect to pass 1W or perhaps I didn't notice it. I'm at 1E now where I just noticed that you can exit the room (to the west) with the woman and come back to it and then have two of them in the room. This has also happened with the scientist in another level and I think it's a bug but I'm not going to look at it until I've finished the game. Mind you, it's all your fault 'cause your other post made me passionate to be the first to finish! (I feel I'm the best bet!)

I also think you're the best bet. You're surprising me.

Yes, it's a bug. Please don't forget to show me the scientist bug.

I'll do that later. Speaking of bugs, I'm still at 1E and I think that throwing the boomerang is very buggy. It doesn't behave well with character splitters at all. If you throw the boomerang and go on a character spliter square (so that you change the character to someone who is far away) very strange things may happen. Usually (I think that happens when characters have the same sword orientation) the boomerang appears in a completely different position, near the new character. Once, when I changed character, the boomerang didn't bother to return and went out of the screen. I'm not sure I can reproduce those, a level editor could help.

Edit: Did you check the orb hitting bug I mentioned earlier?
were the files I sent enough? (sorry, I realise it's the wrong thread now)

Edit: Also after the boomerang left the screen the aborigine remained weaponless and I have to press restart. Before i do that, I'll back up my player files to send you the information you need. Please tell me if the files I sent are enough. I want to continue playing!

Orb bug fixed.

Yep, good bug. That's the reason why when you do a tower-tower trip, the boomerang coordinate is re-initialized. I'll need to do the same when hero steps over the splitter.

Edit:The boomerang can exit the room, it's intended. (but it needs to come back!).

I'd really appreciate a hint on what you have to do in order to get manuever a roach out of the enclosure... I just can't seem to manipulate a roach to the arrow.

A couple people seem to have had trouble with this, but I don't really see that there's any trick to it so I can only give an explicit spoiler:

From the position in the attached image, .

The rest should be obvious.

Thanks. Seems pretty obvious now that I see it. I think my problem was that:

Move diagonally. There's an accessible orb elsewhere.
(the controls are intuitive enough, you won't need any guides to this... honest)

And try not to use .bmp files, they're a bit... massive. I know they're handiest with Paint around, but taking several extra seconds would make it easier for the forums

(I'm betting that you're asking something completely different)

Well, those little round things are orbs. If you hit them with your sword they open and close other doors. You have to turn your sword to hit them. I believe the default keys are z and x.

From the position in your attached image above, try following the blue path, and turning your sword to strike the orb at the end of it:
