Here's one inspired by Muzozavr - so this one is for you buddy!
I've used one of your tricky little tricks which I couldn't do without help.
The way to stop the transporter is the same, but using a different method.
This level uses my Lizspace1 texture which has been used a few times before.

Oh well, I think I know the way of stopping the transporter -- but I am stuck!
I have to use three boulders for this -- that leaves me with ONE boulder to cover FOUR buttons!!!
For now, I will try myself though, but you're quite a trickster too, ain't ya.

EDIT: Ahem, that was a generator.
I now know completely how to solve the level but I keep messing up with the actual bowling.

Frustrating (love it!) little level! I'm not sure what the yellow boulder generator is useful for...not sure what will come out of the other generator. Got the keg generator to stop and got down to collect the goodies on that side but UGH! I'm so stuck at the beginning part.....small hint maybe?
Love the texture too. I don't think I've played a level with that one before.

Liz,
I enjoyed this one. There was a learning curve in my bowling skills but once I got that down, I was 'Bowling for Dollars'

That was an old TV show we used to have when I was younger---much younger
Thanks,
Michelle

I bowled so many gutter balls I almost had to hand in my shoes before getting into the flow of the thing!
This was a very cool manipulation of the transporter glitch!
Thanks for the fun Lizzie

When the barrel transports to your side, launch the boulder into it -- CRAAAAAASH! Now watch the transporter stop.

Muz, I'm not sure what good that does me

When I smash a boulder into the barrel the yellow spheres come out and another barrel comes back etc. All that does is keep smashing boulders that I don't have for any buttons then. Aside from the fact that I can only smash three boulders.....I'm still confused.

When that another barrel comes back, smash it in midway and the transporter will stop!

Thanks Lizzie...sorry to be so stupid but that transporter stopping is really no big deal. Ok so a yellow sphere goes across, blows up, brings another barrel back. I can get the barrel generator to stop, I can get to the right side of the puzzle and get all the goodies. I can't figure out how to get to the coins by the spikes in the middle and on the right.....I'm totally missing something and your hints Muz aren't helping me......must be a blind spot for me.
Edit: WELL DUH!!!!! Found my blind spot

got out with my gold, thanks Muz and Lizzie no need for a spoiler for this DUH girl

Here as promised is a complete Walkthrough:
WALKTHROUGH – 327LIZM – BOWLING FOR COINS
Note that if you miss, the generator will produce more boulders for you. To get 4 new boulders to cover the buttons, just destroy unwanted boulders either with more barrels or on the spikes at the bottom left.
1. First get your boulders into position ready to bowl – see screenshot 1.
2. Push boulder 1 up to smash barrel, which activates the yellow sphere generator and sends the transporter left to collect another barrel.
3. Stand below boulder 2. Watch for the barrel coming from the right. As soon as it passes the edge of the wall marked 2, shove the boulder quickly. If you’ve timed it right the transporter will stop below the second aisle. Go and collect the coin.
4. Ride the transporter left and pick up the coin from the 1st aisle. Push the yellow sphere right onto the transporter to send it back for another barrel.
5. Stand below boulder 3, and as soon as the barrel passes the edge of the yellow aisle marked 3, shove the boulder quickly. Go collect that coin.
6. Repeat the process for the last coin, shoving boulder 4 as soon as the barrel passes the edge of the yellow section 4. Collect that coin and LEAVE THE TRANSPORTER WHERE IT IS FOR NOW.
7. Cover the buttons with the boulders as shown in screenshot 2. Boulders 1 and 2 are pushed up, then push #1 from the left. It stops on the green button and sends #2 on to the yellow button.
8. Get on the transporter and ride it left, push another yellow sphere on and wait for a new barrel to arrive. Push it into the corridor out of the way to disable the barrel generator.
9. Ride the transporter all the way right and down. Collect all the bonus coins in the right corridor, squashing the coilies.
10. There are many ways to collect all the coins in this area, and a screenshot just looks like spaghetti junction, so here are simple directions from the bonus area:
L, U, R, D
L, U, D, R, U, L
U, R, U, L, D
R (get bonus coin), U, D, R, D
L, U, L, D, all the way L
EXIT.

Wow those are amazing directions! So clear.....although I didn't complete this level that way. I went about it a WAY longer way LOL
Thanks sweetums!

This was one of those amazing levels, that awed me with the creativity! It was so cool, even if mildly frustrating!
Thanks so much for this jewel!
