New Levels (adv) - The 'No' series

I've been home for the last two days with a wicked cold. All better now but I ended up with all these levels I made. So I'm putting them out as a series...try not to get me confused with Lakeowl

.
I don't think they're terribly hard but I hope they're fun. No.107 is my favourite.
Here are the texture makers, popo, Lucky-Luc and Loirae, thank-you! All levels seem to just
pop a little more if the texture works with it!
I couldn't add popo's 'piazza' texture to this post because of the space allotments but I know you all have it.
As always, if you need any help...just give a holler'.
Edit: I'm sorry I uploaded a version of no.5 that was the wrong one. I think it's fixed. Hey!...you think it's easy posting a series, you do one!

Three fun and tricky levels, Bob.
105: Some quick moves needed. Found the item for yellow by accident.
106: Finished the first part, still struggling with the 2nd one. Either the Z-bot is shot too early, or it kills me, or it activates the timer in the wrong moment when I'm standing in the line of fire
107: No problems at all except with that darn electro tile

Got my gold after several restarts.
Thanks a lot and get well soon

A certain hidden item to cross the gate once. But in the end the button was uncovered

Bobster - your cold has certainly twisted your brain!
I can't do 105 at all. Will have to revisit it after a few stiff gin and tonics!
Just completed 106

This is how Stinky felt about that cannon after the 543rd try.
Now off to try 107.
Thanks for the fun. Hope you feel better.

My sentiments exactly!!!
I finally had some sticktoitiveness and finished 107 as well - It was a riot! I loved how everything fell into place so easily. But figuring out the direction to go after landing safely on the electrotile was my first of many restarts then realizing that I just had to run to get to the killer balls! Great level Bob! Can't wait to figure out the others!

Loved 107 but really need some assistance on 105 perty please Mr. Fuzzy

Robbyn, I need more than that, where do you need assistance?
Oh and 107 is set-up so that you don't have to land on the electro-tile.

Re 107: The only other place I could see to land was right in the middle of the Rainbow Gang!
Anyway, I managed to land on the electro-tile when it was switched off about 1 try in 3 so that wasn't too bad. Once I'd figured out the right alley everything went smoothly.
I really enjoyed this one Bob! Thanks.
Re 105: I think I'm doing it wrong from the start because there's a Catch 22 situation with the 2 step bridge tile, the coins and the sphere for the white button. Either I can get the 2 coins in the middle or I can get the white button covered. I can't do both. So at the moment I go for getting the spheres sunk and rolling over the timers and covering the white button. Thought I could get the coins later but I can't.
Then I can't cover the green button either. Very confused Mr Warm & Fuzzy!

Yep what Lizzie said
I can do several things but none of them seems to be right cuz I can't ever leave LOL! I can get some coins going one way first and then can't get others, then if I go the other way I can't get those coins by the first tramps UGH I'm lost hehehe

107: after you push the boulder up it lands in the water-hole beside the electrotile (there is already a metal box in the water), now step on the conveyor and you end up in the metal box, from there slide right and tramp R, L, R.
105: forget the coins in the middle, you get them later with the middle raft on the left side, just follow the red sphere down and push it left then up, clear the white button and make your way left.
Hope that helps.

You've been a busy Bobster in the Editor!
Very tricky levels mateypants!
I got number 107 after a gazillion restarts - didn't see that safe jump to miss the electro at all until I came here to post - what a dork I am!

I was trying to work out a convoluted tramp sequence - what was that tramp for by the barrel?

Anyway, got this one finally - great fun!

My children loved the rainbow playground

They saw a lot of it as I had so many restarts much to their glee
I also got number 106 but not with the bonus coin in the dark blue gate - how on earhth do you keep the timer open please?

Nice generator action in this one Action Man Bob!
Can't do number 105 - how on earth you girlies are getting something on the white button is beyond my peabrain

Help please right from the start - I get the spheres to roll left and some are keeping the timers open - then I am stuffed
Thanks Action Man - muchos clever and muchos funola!

Ah-ha...got all three of these.
105..I was doing it right to begin with but wasn't getting the desired results, then I had a brainstorm and thought maybe that second barrel was meant for the yellow button and discovered something that made more sense, after that the rest came together quite nicely.
106..The end made no sense to me till I realized I was killing off what I needed for the timer and stepping on a breaktile to soon , so I couldn't get to the exit. I only used the one prism in this one.
107..I was playing with that tramp and trying different jumps, I knew you couldn't be that mean to us. Found the right solution, took out the spirits and headed home.
So it was yes, yes, and again yes. Tricky and fun levels Bob, I enjoyed them....thank you.

105: Lillie, after you push the red sphere left just wait a bit until it's safe to step down and send the first red one back up. Two reds keep the timers going and the first comes back to land on the white button.
106: You keep the blue gate open by trapping the bottie using the two reflectors and a prism
107: That tramp was for the other yellow sphere.

If I push the red it goes up into the water at the start or smashes the rolling ones - should that breaktile still be intact so it rolls back onto the white whilst ALSO trying to get it to not smash the rolling ones?

Could you just please tell me the first moves if you wouldn't mind coz I think I am doing it all wrong
Cheers big ears!
PS: Just got the bonus coin using the bottie on t'other level - thanks

That is me holding the Stanley Cup - I put this up in honour of the Detroit Red Wings! I got to hold the cup because the law firm I was working at did the Steve Stavro/Bill Ballard takeover of Maple Leaf Gardens, and anyone who worked on the transaction got to have their picture taken with the Stanley Cup - usually it was a big formal dinner - this was better!!!

So cool Andy!!! Those Red Wings ROCKED DA HOUSE!!! I'm a bit of a Hockey fan and am sooooo jealous!

Edit: Never mind I got it. These were GREAT Bobster, now I see you have another up!!!! Yipppieeeeeee
Thanks Fuzzy

Finally did 105 - and I think that's my favourite. I spent enough time there to get really familiar with it!

Order is absolutely vital with this one, and it took me ages to suss out the right way.
Excellent fun all three of them. Thanks so much Bobster!

Just now finished all three of these!

Marinus and I, played them at the same time and talked via IM's (chat in google), so I sorta had a little help.
105: This was my favorite one. Loved the way to cover yellow. When we were playing, I said to Marinus, "I just can't see how to cover the yellow button!" He said, "LOL, that's the name of the level!"

Anyway, I actually figured out how to cover it, by myself....so I'm very proud.
106: Probably the most difficult for me. I had to be,
walked through, almost the entire level.

Very tricky indeedy doody.
107: So much fun!

It seemed so easy at first, but I was either: electro-tiled, red-sphered, bouldered or spirited, no matter where I was!

Loved it!
Loved all three of these. Sorry it took so long to finish them.

You da clever one you are!
Thanks for the FUN, Bob!
...and I'm off to a Wedding Shower now...

(not so much fun as your levels)

This was real fun!

Three times fun and for we played these together it was six times fun.
#105 Dizzy told me: I've yellow covered. You have to do this with the yellow sphere and this travelator such and the other so... I thought: What yellow spere? Never seen a yellow sphere

But after that everything came almost automaticly on the right place.
#106 The first part was funny, almost automatic.

But I had some problems to save the bot. To keep it prisoned I also only needed the 2 reflectors, so I didn't need one of the prisms. And I wonder what for the conveyor/button/blue man were
#107 I didn't think good enough about the jumps so I also landed on the electrics. To pass those red spheres was a little problem too but finally the exit was in sight. Then there was some problem with the engine, the red gate was closed.
But as I said: It was fun. real fun. Very creative and genius stuff Bob! Thanks!
And Dizzy Dear, it was a pleasure to me Thanks!
