Material World (Part 1)

that's pretty impressive! i think when i got my personal best, i died twice. this is some serious platforming level. the majority of the challenges are all set up and tuned within the very edge of reason, one mis-step or hesitation and you're toast. and i find that most of the jumps you really have to hit the controls hard to be successful. that's why that electric star maze at the end is doubly difficult. not only is there barely any breathing room, but now all of a sudden, you're forced to be soft and delicate with the controls. it's so easy to die because of a nervous twitch!

hey edb, that sticker for this level, do you happen to know which level in the story mode that's from? i have a couple of friends who've tried the level but didn't have the necessary trigger sticker.

I think it's what you get from completing story mode... I might be wrong though

And for that matter, since I managed to get that far, I've never gotten that far again. Last time I tried I went to the... Ehm, what is it called... The vehicular thingies that bounce... Well, I let go too late and got toast.

hey, thanks! you miss out on some serious points if you don't have that trigger sticker!

are you restarting the game every time you die? cuz i did notice that when i was playing this the other day and got to the scoreboard, i didn't see any new names up there. i thought for sure if a player dies only once and finishes, he'd be in the top three.

Yes, I sadly restarted it, I shouldn't have done that, really, thinking of how close to the end I was. Maybe I shouldn't have done it. It could easily have been my highscore spot. I did have like 13-14k points or so. Maybe missed out on one or two secrets.

This reminds me of another time I tried to ace it, EDB, when the vehicles start going vertical, I got squished at the platform there due to the bouncy thing being stretched out, so to say. A possible fix here is to delete one or two small squares of the ground there so you can pass.

that's too bad that you restarted. 13-14k would have definitely gotten you to no. 2 (hey, my spot ) and i only have over 10,000 points (i think). edb has the no. 1 spot at over 15,000. next time, don't be such a perfectionist!

I swear that I will beat EDB's high score, some time I and he have the 2p highscore He showed me all secrets, so it's not that weird. One or two of them are dangerous to reach, however, so I skipped them whilst acing.

Anyways, I think it's time to start one of my acing sessions. I'll be back in a few hours.

secret areas? hmmm! must speak with edb! i have a hunch i know where one is but i've never given it a go (this level can be exhausting! so you just wanna get to the scoreboard!)

good luck trying to ace it! don't leave us too far behind in the dust!

ok i finally completed it. It was.....hard to say the least. The glass electric stars were so insanely hard to get by

Wow! It's so cool to have people enjoying my level this much! Thanks, guys! Just the fact that you're trying so hard to beat my score (I have the high score?! ) means a lot! As for some earlier comments...

@Dubster: I actually worked with that little sponge circle for a really long time. It seemed like, no matter what I did, the player was always either squished between the bouncy wagon thing and the circle, or they couldn't reach the circle. I tried getting it to the right size, but apparently it can still kill you... I'll try and fix that. Thanks!

@Nirvana: I'm not really sure where that sticker came from. I know you get it in Story Mode at some point... But, since it's just bonus points, it's not essential that the player has it. Regarding the "secret areas" Dubster mentioned - It's really just the tree. When I first started the level, I thought, "Hmm... I really like that tree. It actually looks pretty cool!" And so I added a secret point bubble emitter. So, if you go to the left from the very beginning of the level and grab the tree, you'll get extra points. Sort of a secret stash I made for myself, friends, and anyone who finds it. Um... Also, the sponge circle to the right of the Glass Soldier dude is hiding a secret circular cave with some points and a prize... I think that's it though.

I managed to finish this level just today with 5-6 deaths, I forgot about the secret behind that bubble at the glass fiend, though I still ended up with 13.5k points. I'll get you next time, EDB!
