My first level (Hodge Podge)

#21 You cannot?

1:53.828 minutes. I made a small mistake, I guess I could've done sub 1:50.000 minutes too.

Tell me you are amazed when you see this time :)

#22 What format is the recording in? Also, is that time with the latest revision (available at the aforementioned Angelfire link)?

#23 Recording is using MBG. Unless you know of a site that has a very low recording size (eg, 5 mins is equal to 20 MBs), then I can do one.

Also, that time is with the latest version. The version before that I had a time of 1:43.944 minutes.

#24 Hehe, I improved my time so now I'm better than the time of the last version:

1:41.911 minutes.

#25 OK, Marble Boy, prove it. Go ahead and send the recording.

#26 Send the hodge podge to "luca.harris@gmail.com"

#27 It'll have to wait a few hours. I have school :P

Anyway, a recording made by Win XP won't be recognised by Mac. Platform section problem. I can show you a screenshot of my end time (I don't of the latest one, but I can give you one once I finish the level).

I will try and get a recording though, but be warned, it might be huge. (20Mbs).

#28 That's cool, 20 MB is fine.

#29 I've done a 31 MBs video (29 MBs after zipping) which is 2:17 minutes (for a 1:45.50 minutes run). I could've done better, again. Still, very nice!



Bobby, if you have MSN, I can send it to you.

Add me on MSN at:

#30 I beat my own record, I now have 1:36.534, but I also have a recording that shows the new trick and is for 1:38.456 minutes. The recording is bigger 32.5 MBs (31MBs after zipping) and is for 2:25 minutes.

I suggest getting the smaller one of the two, but if you want to see the 1:45.50 minutes run (of which I run into the block which stopped me for 2-3 seconds!), it's ok. If you want to see the new run (harder to make, because of the super new trick), then I'm fine. The size is up to you! I'm just telling the numbers:

So:

1:45.50 minutes run:
29 MBs download. Stuck in a blocker towards the end (lost 2-3 seconds off my time).

1:38.456 minutes run:
31 MBs download. New super hard trick. Around 10 seconds of introduction ("This is Matan, I'm going to play Hodge Podge by Bobby." etc :)).

#31 Matan, I don't have MSN, but I do have AIM... if you have AIM, my screen name is WeWachoviaMoney

Go ahead and send both, I'm not worried about size.

#32 I once had AIM but it was too annoying to use. You'd have to download MSN.
I'll try and upload them on YouTube and send you the link.

#33 Update!

Pathway 1 added! My super trick is gonna be uploaded next!

Post this in your address bar:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yWkrgEoKfHE

That is ~31MBs download.


Pathway 2 added! My super trick is revealed!

Post this in your address bar:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xJW_8esQBP0

This is ~32.5 MBs download. Has an introduction.

It's sub 1:40 minutes!


(Hmmm, seems like pathway 2 video doesn't work!?!)
Anyway, the new trick is:
You just do everything like I did, but when you get to the super jump towards the end, you jump and activate the super jump (while pressing W+D) and you should barely (VERY BARELY) make it to the top. We got away from the Super Speed part! Now get the gem on the left, then roll backwards, jump once or twice and get the gems normally!

#34 I couldn't get the video to work last night, but it works now!

#35 Just saw the video, matan... HOW do you get that marble to go so freakin fast?!? I can't even do 1/10th of those tricks you did!

#36 I rotated the camera to face the right as you saw, but I just press W+A all the time so that the camera was rotated just enough so it would go straight (as you saw) with the marble. Jump 5 times and after you land the fifth time, keep on pressing W+A and as you fall to the small incline (before you hit the incline and after falling down), hit the jump button so you get extra boost ;).

It's mostly W+D and W+A work. If you concentrate on my keyboard noises, it looks like I'm typing or something... lol. It's so fast!

#37 My reaction time is slooooow. I've tried that, and it always takes five seconds before I realize I'm going the wrong way, but by then it's too late. I've actually jumped out of my seat when I hit a bumper without knowing it on some levels.

#38 I've practiced this '2key' method w-a or w-d on Escher's Race. It works well.

#39 Second most best level. THIS LEVEL IS FREAKIN AWSOME!

#40 Send it to: yakkers_and_cheese@yahoo.com
