Five balls and one mechanism. B needs to think hard in this B only level. Springboard stairs are used! Hopefully not too hidden and is enjoyable.

      @ohmytian, I only play B only levels, that's why I've not done any of your other levels, I used to play cooperative levels. But got fed up with herding etc. So I'll always play your B only levels. :thumbsup:
    • ohmytian
      @shaun Roberts Yeah, I understand because sometimes I also got bored by the long herding. But I will still give cooperative levels a try. B only levels are not easy to build as there's less options for B to do. So whenever I build a B only level I will include a mechanism inside.

      @ohmytian - Not seeing how to get B down for the ball on the far left in the thumbnail above. Didn't look at the video and I don't want to spend hours on this. BTW, I can get to that ball with some momentum auto pilots but that isn't right - getting back is easy.

      Lots of enjoyable gameplay in there although my ending was less complicated as B simply stayed on the budgeable. Liked the reuse of the ball at the end which was a pleasant surprise and the delayed delivery of a ball.

      B should do springboard stairs at the stair on the side of the level with the two fences beside.

      Thank you for playing, @ridgerunner ! Argh, I didn't spot your ending so didn't prevent it. But I quite liked that move, perhaps I shall make a level with it.

      Thanks for the hint - that made the game play all work out. Nice complex level with lots of options.

      EDIT - Forgot to mention - when you mention the hidden - I had to look with Mekostudio to see two things so yes a bit hidden.

      @Meko Guy Thank you for playing! I purposely build this level with lots of options regarding which side should the ball be pushed, which ball stays at where, etc. So it's a rather short but requires thinking. And about the hidden, there's no problem you look with MekoStudio as long as it helps you.

      @ohmytian -
      I must see the ending or the way to the ending in order to determine the game play. Without that, the level will have no purpose and I might as well skip it. I get no pleasure wondering how to win but executing the plan to win.
      In this level, three balls will be required to push the mech so B can pass or two balls push the mech and then B does a SBS over a ball at the end. When I set it up with Mekostudio, three balls didn't push the mech all the way so I figured it was the latter method but I wasn't going to work thru all that to find out my Mekostudio test failed. When I tested it again, the mech did push all the way thru so method one was possible. Retested to be sure as method two wasn't very practical but possible. The other thing I needed to see was if there was a rounded block on the mech as that could have been a BIG part of the game play. I had no idea if the last ball was going to fall and help out.

      Thank you for playing, @delator77 ! The ending you used was cool, which I liked and I already saved this move in another card so keep in mind you'll come across it in another level of mine.

      convincing fake paths :eek::eek::eek:
    • ohmytian
      @Ray Aznable In B only levels, I often include such kind of paths to provide options for which way the ball should go. Like this players only will think but not just tap here and there then win. Straightforward ones wasn't my style. Thanks for playing and commenting.
