Journey of R

Superb level but I got a big fright at the end when the bot twice declined to step onto the pushed high ball. I did something and not sure if that had any bearing on success in the third approach. It was only after I had been playing for quite a while that I spotted a vital appendage of one of the draggables that allowed me finish. Some devilish traps too.

Have just fine tuned my gameplay but it is still over 11 minutes. Wonder if it could be shorter.

@cimarronline Thank you

It's my bad that I forgot to write this tip. When you let PR get onto the pillar in the end, make it go in this direction so that it may stay on it for enough time and you can drag the draggable. The whole gameplay is truly long. So glad you like it

@EinaUdi.. That was one of the few parts of the level that i found straightforward. Never approached it directly. By the way the image is not viewable. And i did enjoy the ride up .

@EinaUdi I'm so glad to see you back on the forum and see a new level from you!! I REALLY love your levels and the complex logic for experienced players. Your levels are awesome! But unfortunately, I don't have time to play very long levels; I don't have enough time. A level is about 10 minutes long, then taking into account traps (I always fall into them) and restarts (I think at least 5-6 restarts), it will be more than an hour and more. That's a lot for one level, since I don't have enough time. Please excuse me!! I'll wait for your next level

I'm sure the level is cool, please forgive me. If there's a shorter level, I'll definitely play it.

@Denis Nazin Thanks! I completely understand the problem you met since this is a long and complex level. Next time I will try to make something simple and relaxing

Supurb level! Wonderful environment, big challenging logic adventure, great challenge. I finished with the bots swapped, but I think thats the one part of the level where the bot order does not matter. For quite some time I had not seen a vital detail, probably the same as @ridgerunner.

It's that the rounded metal under the little house inside the cave goes up and down with the slider that also allows access to the two balls next to the house. Actually now that I think about it, I had also missed the slider in the little house on top for a while.

But with that knowledge it was still not easy. Is it used to go up or down? Which bot? Then I figured out that it was nessecary to...

push the beam three times.

And that requires a lot of path logic and some timing and/or freezing. Some initial ideas proved impossible. You can't control one bot through a long path while keeping the other frozen. Alternatives where managable, but you have to plan carefully.

Then one bot walked straight to the win. Then turned. "Oh no, is my bot order wrong? " But no, it just took a bit more turning.

Have not timed my gameplay, but certainly felt like 7+ minutes. Counting in focus and sense of time, 11min could be the actual time.

@Block builder.. yes that was the same slider. I wondered about what bot to use at the finish but didn’t think they would both work. Interesting. Here is my gameplay. So long that i forgot what to do next once.

@ridgerunner My gameplay was shorter but I did two stupid things.

Spoiler

1. I sent regular R up early on to push a ball and dropped him from the top house. He avoided the ball in the cave with star, but I was lucky. This saved time but is a very unsafe strategy.
2. I had not realized you can freeze a bot up to the beam and just wait for the top bot to arrive. That's much easier than freezeing the top bot by holding the beam until the lower bot is in place.
