Here's my first Level... and not the last... don't get me wrong.. have been playing Wonderland for a long time... Special Thanks to Amadeus/Mark for all his wonderful levels... Enjoy!!! Le Marquis
Had few red herrings (Thanks to Mark and Bob)... This is the revised version!
After making the Red dragon and Ghost of the Carribeans levels.. I felt like this level should have had better textures and houses so I redid it! So that my collection is following a standard... The logic stayed the same... just the look! For the ones who like my collection, please redownload all the files.. thx

Hi Lemarquis
WELCOME TO LEVEL MAKING
I can see that you are a total expert, and this is a mind-blowing first level. Probably this is really your 101st level and you've finally decided it's hard enough to post.
At the moment I only got out of the first room 1 try in about 85, and then I immediately got shot by the red dude.
Will try again later.

Ain't it Mark himself?!

Anyway, it's a mindblowing level, especially if you are not Mark and it's your truly first level.
I can get out of the first room and past the red dude but after that...

I got the formula down for getting out of the first room, eliminating that chomp, going through the blue TP and starting the machine. But after that...
I'll try again later, my frustration level is hitting overload.
Sorry,

No everyone, this is not me!

Though I must say that I'm flattered since this beats anything I've ever done.

It does have a similar style to my Amadeus levels.

It took me a long time just to figure out that opening move.

Very complex and intricate with a few red herring.
Must confess to peeking with Alt + X at one point and was surprised at what I discovered.
If this is only your first level, I can only imagine what your next one will be like.

Okay, got it!
I'm not sure if I did it the way you intended because there's stuff left over (sadly, no chompers

)!
Thanks for the challenge,

Can't find a way to persuade the blue shadow on the timer OR inside the purple gate.
Help?
EDIT: Found it! Doing the rest of it now...
DOUBLE EDIT: OK, I'll rest for a little. My frustration is hitting overload...

I'm sorry, but your video wouldn't work for me.
I'll work for a little longer though.

Thank you for uploading the video.
Didn't know there was a limitation on posting URL's

Waaaaaaaaay too hard for me!

Looks great though!
Welcome To The Forum - cool name!
I'll look out for your next levels - hopefully there will be some I can complete!

I just watched the video and thought, "wow, that's a lot of work to go through!"
You can kill the chompers with the red dude by simply standing in front of the box and stepping quickly off and on the single tile just before the chomp crosses. Then push the box into the tp and the boulder in the water. now take the travelator up to the reflector and get that coin and then come back to the tramps and push one box bottom right to collect the hidden coin and one box top right to cross over and enter the tp push the hidden boulder in and then the one in front of the exit and you're done!
At least that's how I did it!
Of course now that I think about it, the red dude/chomper dance is kinda tricky

First, Welcome!
This level was REALLY DIFFICULT - so difficult that I could not complete it without finally (after 2 days) peeking at the level editor (what's that ALT-X business? it does nothing for me!). Once I did and saw the hidden bits, the rest was easy - much simpler than the video.
To begin with, the first room can be cleared so much faster and without such terrible risks.
The chomper from the first room is killed by moving down quickly in the next room.
The other 2 chompers are killed by the spikes.
The coin behind the gate is fetched with the shadow's aid.
The wooden box and prism are red-herrings, at least since there are no chompers to kill at home.
Finally, it is possible to complete this level without the trampolines, but this requires killing the bad red dude - then you can travel home by boat!
The easy way to kill that dude is by sacrificing one of the wooden boxes (one is enough). However, with very difficult timing I managed to kill that bad dude without sacrificing any piece of equipement: did anyone else manage to do it?

The revised version stumped me absolutely.

EDIT: Grrr!

I
think I have it all -- but forgot how to persuade the shadow to stand on the pink timer!!

Welcome to the forum! This sure is a tough level! I gave it numerous tries but had no success. Even after watching your video solution I think I will save it for a very rainy day! Hope to see more levels from you!

Thanks for posting the video, LeMarquis and Mark.
Just watching it made my head ache! How very difficult and complex.
I tried about a further 10 times but still can't do it, even with the solution.
LeMarquis - you are obviously another genius whose levels will challenge the élite puzzlers of the Forum.

Loof in Venice..

Also... "Between heaven and hell" was not up to my standards and will be replaced by a total new look and total new level... Same title! Coming soon... THX

Far too hard for me, I have given up, even after watching the video!
