Happy Acres
This is for Loirae's son, AJ.

I'm using a variation of his mysterious suicide glitch.

You'll need Lucky-Luc's colorful "flgcolor" texture.

Have fun!

Only Kiki could say this was easy!
I'm getting nowhere at all.
Fabulous start, which I got after a couple of goes, but then I'm trapped between a red and green sphere, or bouldered. Can't find a fake wall to hide in.
Will keep trying for a while though ...

AJ would be proud if he actually understood what a huge find a glitch can be. But with all the odd items he throws into his 5-year old levels, there's bound to be something going on sooner or later.
this was a great level. thanks!

Hi Liz,
Push the red sphere, wait for it to return, then back up one tile when it's two tiles away.
Peegue and the sphere will end up on the same square unharmed.

That's been fun. Liked the button puzzle most. When I first stood at the exit with all my coins I thought "done"... pop...pop...pop...

Found everything needed next time round. Great puzzler, thanks

I had a lot of fun at Happy Acres! I found this to be one of yor easier ones, too. My triumph of a gold star was short lived, when the exit proved to be elusive. Very neat design!
Thanks!

Same as the rest...lots of trouble with the end!
A little exploring proved the key!
Thanks again!

Great Level!
I had no problem with the end (I know how my fake walls look like

), but the red sphere was quite challenging. Not too hard, but very interessting and funny!
Thanks for this level!

I am glad you posted the help for the red sphere! I knew it had to be something like that but I couldn't get the timing right! Even when I knew the way it still took a lot of tires! Got caught in the ending loop too!

At last I've finished this one!
Thanks Mark, for the help with the red sphere. It still took me ages to find the right moment to move.
The box/button puzzle was very entertaining.
Then, along with everyone else I got caught in the exit!
Finally found the secret. Brilliant fun, thanks Mark.

Hi Mark!
I thought I'd dredge up another old one, since I just played it. Never completed this level on my first go-around but worked on it years later and solved it! I had no problem with the red boulder timing but the ending threw me off! Was the steel box generator a red herring? I tried forever to activate it but it turned out to be rather useless.
A very funny and entertaining level all around!

How could I possibly missed this one?
The steel box generator is used in the very beginning, so it is not used again.

Hi Theo,
When you push the steel box up into the water, it generates a box
on the blue button, allowing you to escape the rolling green sphere.
EDIT: BTW, a Facebook game was just released with the title: "Happy Acres"

Ah, I see. The beginning was so hectic that I wasn't really paying attention to the moving parts. That might have made my life easier though.
