This is a level you will either love or hate. Most advanced players that enjoy an actual challenge should like it. Bubble happy platformers will throw in the towel the first minute, if not earlier, give it one star then turn around and rate a H4H level 5 stars Here is a video of a run I did today. Do not jump in this level, having not flown the hovercraft, and expect to breeze through it. Hover around first and learn smooth control before attempting to set a score.

Man, this game is HARD! The first time I played I thought it was about impossible to control, but the 2nd time I got it. The first time I did somehow manage to open the gate to finish the level by only using 4 out of 5 of the objects. I THINK I landed on it and pushed it down while it was falling throught the chute so it pushed the basket down too far. Great job! 5 stars and a heart from me. I loved it. I have a feeling you will get a lot of "frustrating" tags - but these are probably the people who needed the milk and cookies on the way out.

Hehehe.. yeah the milk and cookies are for just they group. The balance only requires 4 blocks to open but only if you place them correctly. If you accidentallly drop one or two and they land in the right side of the basket, the 5th block is necessary. Yes I think the frustrating and annoying tag are the most used on that level. Oh well. I make what I make and there are some that enjoy it so thats good for me. Also the ones that master this will be ready for upcoming levels that use this craft. Thanks

Got to say that I love it too. (Aside from nearly throwing my controller across the room at first ) Last time I played it the high score was like 27600 or something. I have had nearly flawless runs with 4 blocks and still have only managed like 26000+. Kratos is the man when it comes to flying that machine. I aint givin up Edit: Wow I just watched the video. That was an awesome run! It will take a super duper run to compete with that score.

Really got lucky because when coming back for another block I just happened to be lined up just right on two blocks and didnt need any correction. I have the level modified and going up today. You choose if you want moving blocks (the way it is now). If you choose that option a spotlight triggers a turret that shoots bubbles. If your timing is right going up or coming back in you can get hit a quite a few times. I need you to hook up with me online MrJoeyMan and give me your input on it before I post.

Yeah the timing is so crucial in this game. If you stutter at all, you may as well crack the cookie and lick off the icing right then, lol. Hmmm, I played around 5 pm eastern time and set a new high for me on the game but didnt have that new choice yet. I will be online in the am, so I'd love to see it!

I posted the updated level today. By default its in normal mode. The blocks shift and you have bubbles being fired at you while your flying. Easy mode is activated by placing a sticker before the race. In easy mode the blocks are stationary and you have no bubbles. The bubbles really add another challenge. For them to make a big difference in your score you need to string some good multiples but then you cannot neglect the other part of the game so you have to do both to get the most out of it. A few things I covered.. You cannot finish race then double back for bubbles You cannot start in easy mode then enable bubbles later. You must be in the HC for bubbles to be dispensed. A second player will do little to no good thanks to "require all". Still the main tags for the level are annoying and frustrating, which I expected. Just not that many players out there that enjoy this much challeng. Its a shame though because once you get the technique down, its very hard to stop playing and trying to better your own score.

I wondered what "require all" meant. And yes it is addictive. I will give it a go when I get home.

I see you already improved your score Let me know if you run into any weird gate situations. One comment said 4 blocks in , gate when down but he could not get through. I think thats just that he dropped 4 but not all to the one side so the basket went down partially. This is why added the lower portion of the gate and also moved the task complete sound trigger higher. So anyone playing this level... 4 blocks to lift if you position those blocks mostly to the left. The basket works by weight, not switches. Also do not abandon craft and head for gate unless you know its going to go all they way down. Waiting for task complete sound will be a definite sign.

Also do not abandon craft and head for gate unless you know its going to go all they way down. Waiting for task complete sound will be a definite sign. Its actually a brilliant setup I think. You definitely have to make sure that the four blocks are dropped to the right of the funnel so they will slide to the left side of the basket or you aint gettin out. I would have topped 29000 I think if it didnt have to be this way. I got some perfect runs but then I would be standing at the gate and it wouldnt go up. Talk about ****** !!! I really like the bubbles added. I dont wait around to gather them, I just try to get the fastest time I can and hope they will hit me in multiplier fashion. It is possible to gather like a 1000 points before you even trigger the gate with bubbles, but it doesnt help the score any. I got my high score by just hustling as fast as possible and getting hit a few times with some bubbles while doing so. The only thing I dont like about it is when you are in such a hurry to get to the finish line, sometimes you hit the fire and it subtracts points from your already frantically gained score Its definitely a 10 out of 10 level still. I look forward to playing it every day, and looking for more enhancements too. (by the way did you write off the swinging RR idea?) Im trying to think of more.

No I have not forgotten about that idea. I have just been messing with this so much.

Just posted a training level that should help some learn more control. Its short and simple. Focuses on getting the player to hover in one spot to advance to next part also hovering near center of focus point gives bubbles. The next step is the same concept execept the focus point is moving up and down and travels. After that you land in four locations, activate switches and then finish.
