I think this is quite hard. So far the only ways I found to destroy a certain item, also destroyed Loof. Are we supposed to push an item over the tramp with the flame? Will you give some hints please?

Thanks, but I'm afraid that I need a very big hint then, because all the hints you gave, I had already thought, but I see no way to do that.
The boulder is going over the TP to the right wall. If I want to stop the boulder below the conveyor button, I have to get the goob on the TP. To do that I think I need a bigger room with the green buttons to avoid the boomer. (I believe it's theoretically possible, pushing the goob up to that area and back down, but I can't do that without getting "boomed") But even if I make that room bigger in the editor, and have the goob on the TP to stop the boulder, then I must push the goob 2 places up to directly right of the conveyor. If I do so, I get killed by the boulders above the other TP.

I need a very big hint also because I have tried all that and I just can't do it either.

Thanks

This is another level I needed help with, I'm on a roll today. :roll: :lol:

It was a move with the boulder and the kaboom that I hadn't encountered before, at least I don't remember seeing it.

Great level bb and thanks for the help! :D

Interesting. Please tell us more about it. Or is help only available for those who PM? :wink:

Edit: Thanks for the PM. :D I will try it.

Thanks to those help I was finally able to finish the level. I had seen that,
if I'm right so called "connect the dots"
trick a few times before, but I didn't realize how it could be useful here. First I tried in the level where I had made the upper room bigger, but although I never expected, I was able to do the original one.

Great and challenging level! Thanks. :D

Finally made it - took me some days!

The first trick was obvious (Connect the dots) but the next move was something I've never seen before. Thanks a lot for this great challenge.
