New Level -- Redefining Reflection II

Post by Muzozavr »

I finally got into the level-building mood when I actually had time to build a level. This one is fairly small, but the concept here... when you solve it, you'll see why I think it's beyond clever. It's a twist on a twist.

Have fun!

I have not solved it yet, but if the area was wider (as attached), then I can. I believe that the solution is along that line...

Wooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaah!!! That was WIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIDE!!! :shock: :o :shock:

Yes, the solution is along that line. Horizontal space does make a difference and yours is easier on the fingers... but mine is more elegant visually. :P

I remember that Mark used a similar move in a level he posted a few years back but I don't remember the name of the level. :(

Your variation certainly required more exact timing but still good fun to work out. :D

Thanks,

It was "Stratosphere", AFAIK. His misdirection was top-notch. Layers of it. It's kinda shameful, but I wasn't able to solve it, actually...

However, I did use the move itself before this level... before "Stratosphere" as well. In fact, I believe I was the first one to come up with it, though I can't be sure with the number of levels that are there on the forum.

This level also uses the move more than once, and the first time it's used in a very unconventional way. That's why I said it was a twist on a twist.

I'm glad you enjoyed it!

I have a bit an idea how to do this, but I don't see how exactly.
I think the left reflector should be pushed through a TP to the right side, and then through the other TP back to the left side. But then the right reflector is in the way.

Do I see this wrong, or how should I solve this?

About reflector positioning:
Take the top right clock without taking the top left one.
Push the right reflector two tiles up and leave it in the corner. Stinky himself will teleport to the other side, taking the other clock.
Now you're free to do whatever with the remaining reflector and the prism.

Hi Muzozavr
I've finally found the line of fire (and a way to stay outside of it...). :D
I enjoyed every minute spent with this ace puzzle. Thanks for the fun.
