New Level - Between a Rock and a Hot Place

Mark · Post by **Mark** » Thu May 25, 2006 2:38 am

Back to my old tricks... well, actually a new trick.

This one requires quick fingers.

Hint: You must choose between a rock and a hot place to slay your foe.

You are a stinker, This one is cleverly evil,

Sometimes I will take one for the team, Just to see what happens It paid off, Then on my way across the transporterI had another little scare,

But made it out OK and with one new gold star. I liked this level lots Mark, More More More, Thanks for the fun Bud.

Kiki, I knew you would solve this one!

Now others will know it's not impossible.

I've decided to implement the new "Stinker Warning" label
on my tiny monsters... which this most definetly is!

Yes, it's really not impossible! Great magic perfomance, I would say!

You need terrible quick fingers to solve this one! Very tricky!
Theo, you didn't try everything. At least, there's one thing you didn't try...

I was quite surprised when... you know what...

I love that stinker label, too!
Thanks for the fun!

It is solvable, mind you, there are some tricky bits

Thanks Mark,

Thanks for your hint Mark! Even though it confused me even more, it also helped me a little

I literally had tried everything except that one thing.
I figured out the solution after accidentally tramping onto the boulder

Great trickery!

Here's a poetic spoiler:

If rolling & bowiling brings no new progress,
Try bouncing & pouncing for true success!

Finally finished this magical stinker thanks to Mark's help! Even after he told me what to do, it took three tries! Thanks Mark!

Walk-Thru:

To solve this you must first position the boulder on the lower end of the middle sky island.
You can do this by using the two teleporters.
Next remove the lower coin and run to the top left corner with the red chomper following in pursuit.
Wait until the Chomper is at your heels, then quickly follow the border to the right clockwise and down and stop under the boulder. The chomper should stop just above the teleporter... two tiles above the trampoline.
Now push the boulder up and watch the fireworks.
The game will magically take over at this point.

Thanks for the walkthrough Mark, but this is as far as I can go! I cannot get on the transporter, suppose my fingers don`t work fast enough

I pretty much had this one figured out but thought I had done something wrong as I couldn't get on the moving sidewalk either, so had given up until I read the spoiler. Did a little finger workout to limber up my digits, and voila!. Of course I ran too fast and blocked myelf in, but didn't do that again a second time. A brilliant mind you have!

I don't know that I ever would have gotten this one on my own. I spent quite some time on this one, but I am very behind on levels, so came looking for help.

So, my question is, is this another glitch, and would the boulder have exploded with another enemy? Is this a trampoline only thing?

Very clever, whatever the answers! Thanks for the challenge!

I think this is a trampoline only thing.

Don't believe it was intentional, so most-likely a glitch...
though I could be wrong.

Only Patrick knows.

Well, I wanted to give up but saw all the advices here that it is doable,
but I still couldn't do it, so finally I took a hint from the level-editor and from there on it was more-or-less a smooth ride.

Thank you for this genious idea.

Phew!!! I wish I had known the walkthrough was on here earlier - like a week ago. Because that is how long I have been coming back to this one

I was so close to solving this myself - or so I thought

I've been walking the walk with the chomp, trying to get him to pass the TP in the middle island at the same time as me on the right island

No wonder I couldn't do it

Just completed it with your spoiler - but I just wanted you to know how hard I tried on my own!

Thanks Mark - excellent stinker
