I'm releasing this to coincide with my first audio story on YouTube.
It's narrated by Roger Melin also known on our forum as rmelin13.

Enjoy Both! :wink:

One of the easiest levels I have ever seen from you, Mark.

Thanks!!!

I didn't find this so easy; but, you're getting to know me. :roll:

I found this to be a very fine tributary level, Mark. :D

I could only get one bonus coin, though. :|

Hi Jutomi,
You were able to exit with only one bonus coin?
Or was there one coin you were not able to get?

How is this possible? It's all symmetric - you got the one, so you can get the other in the same way!

Reflecting again, Jutomi, you may not be aware of the following glitch: When jumping on a trampoline with a flame on for the second hop and beyond, you don't get killed!

I haven't been playing much RTW lately, so I've got quite rusty, but let me comment not on the level, but on the audio story...
narrated by Roger Melin
Is that seriously his real voice? No pitch editing at all to make it lower/deeper?

That's... quite impressive, actually. :shock:

I agree Muzo - Roger Melin has a marvellous voice for reading stories. I enjoyed it very much. Thanks for sharing it with us Mark.

As for the level, I don't think it's easy at all.
It seems to hinge on getting the correct buttons covered in the first 2 rooms and I can't do this.
All I can cover with the boulders are the white and green buttons.
So when you try to get one character through the gates to the black TP, it isn't possible.
Stuck! How unusual :lol:

Of course - two boulders can only cover two buttons, but boulders are not the only thing that can cover buttons - what else is around that can cover buttons?

That's Roger's real voice. It has the perfect resonance for reading. :)
Here's a link to Roger reading a full-length novel you can listen to:

Okey, so, evidently, I forgot about the other how many coins in the level. I meant that I just couldn't reach one! :lol:

Actually, before I joined up on the forums, I watched Inmrmenshow's entire playlist of Wonderland levels...
so, I know this glitch; I just don't know what I'm supposed to do about the springs. :oops:

Fun level Mark, a few miscues but teamwork prevailed. :D

Thanks,

Jump from the tramp by the tree to the tramp with the flame and down to the transporter.
Use the transporter to reach the break-tile and then transport to the bonus coin on the sign.
Finally transport up to exit using the box to extinguish the flame.

Thanks for the advice Amnon.
I can cover all the buttons but I then can't jump into the central corridor.
Or I can cover one button and have the other character jump and complete the level, but that leaves the first one stranded.
:roll: :lol: :roll:

There is one more way to cover buttons which you overlooked!

Oh, duh... :lol:

How did I miss that floor tile? :lol:

I finished listening to the short story...
I commented on it, if you're interested. :mrgreen:

Thank MiToJu and this guy named Ikaru for that name; Sad I don't know how to change stuff.

But, that's a seperate story.

It was my pleasure! :mrgreen:

Hi Mark
I like this kind of level: They seem to be totally symmetrical, but you have to figure out where the symmetry is or has to be cracked. :wink:
Thanks a lot for this perfect example.

Chip,

I thought about you when I made this level.
But nobody does symmetry better than you! :)

I still can't do this one Mark! Whatever the symmetrical secret is, it eludes me. :oops:

The only way I can see to jump into the central corridor is by putting a box in the water above one of the tramps. Then I have nothing left to put on a button to exit the last character.

But no button needs to pressed for the last character to exit!

Thanks so much for the video Mark!

My head is clearly in another space at the moment.
I just didn't see that final exit jump was possible.
What a dodo! :lol: :lol:

Excellent fun as ever my friend! :stinkycool:

Liz, please don't feel bad. I often miss the most obvious moves, as I complicate things. :roll:
You are a creative genius, and I love every one of your exquisite adventures. 8)
