Is this way possible? (W10L5)

OK, so basically we all remember the "ANOTHER WAY" level from RTW, huh?
Question: is it somehow possible to get four boxes out of the box-puzzle on the right?
If it is, then I know a high-scoring path. :wink: :lol: If not, then, sadly, my ability to get through the electro/spike combo at the bottom unharmed is for nothing. :(

You do know there's a TP in the middle of the boxes at the left near both UFO's don't you. You're not supposed to go across the spikes/electro tiles bit in the middle, you're supposed to go up top and go through the TP's.

I think the solution is to use 3 boxes to get up top, you'll have one left. Break two of the 3 boxes at the TP's. Go trough the top TP, push the box at the bottom through the TP. Follow through the TP. Push the box back over the bridge you made, so you have 2 boxes to use to get the coins. Then go back trough the TP to get to the exit. All while avoiding being shot at. :shock:

Good luck with it. I never managed to complete it. :D

I know how to do it the regular way, I can do it. Question is: is it possible to get FOUR boxes from the right side?!
OR build the bridges down with only three?
I know the regular way, but if you could get four boxes from there it'd be faster and more useful for highscores...

:D I'm not quite sure what you mean. Anyhow, there is another way, using 4 of those boxes. :D

In fact I had one box over (not the one on this picture below the TP) but I wasn't carefully enough pushing the box over the electro-tile and spike. :shock: 8)

I'm afraid I don't have the ability though. :lol: But I think you need 2 more boxes then, and I had only 1 box over, at least 1 could be used, the other 2 only can be pushed in the water.

How sad, I really wanted this to be a high-scoring path (the "direct" one). Oh well.

Well, you can make the same level with one more box, or make a level with only those difficult electro tiles and spikes. You know how the editor works! 8) :D

Well, it did take me quite some trial and error, but I did manage to copy the pattern, and I am going to pack it with some more action, so beware. :twisted: :lol:

Are you talking about this level?

I remember there were some quick manoeuvres avoiding the UFO's but not extremely. I don't think the CPU speed matters.

Also there are at least two ways to play this level. I think the official solution is different then I played. If you want me to write the way I played it, please let me know.
