BO PEEP Lost One Offline Posts: 24 GREECE Gender:	Re: About Luris Reply #20 - 12.04.2009 at 02:11:26 I wonder if anyone has managed a fourth save. I seem to be unable to land on the top of the pedestal and keep sliding down the poles . Is this save just a 'trick'. Olle you have created a really fun mansion , well done and thanks. Bo Peep

I thought I consider myself a pretty accomplished player, but I really have to admit I'm having problems with Luris. Shocked

It's one of those mansions that is so hard that there's a great danger of me becoming disinterested before I even make a considerable progress.

Maybe you should have handed out a few extra lives (by including a lot of extra money bags) in the first room, so one doesn't have to restart that often before even getting to the first save.

That is an idea, [there's only 1375 to find before the first save] since (I think) it gets a bit easier after the first save.
[It would be a shame if people didn't want to play it....]

Good to get so much feedback too, one gets a bit blind after the 100th test of the first room... I sure know how to get to the first save without dying, but I've been trying and testing for almost half a year

I'm currently playing it through [a lot easier when I know what to do in each room before entering it...

] and it seems I have an excess of lives in the middle part, and after that it gets a bit harder again.
Not impossible, of course, just harder, mostly as in "think before you do anything"

well... not constantly...

but the embryo was formed last fall, with long periods of no building, and periods of small changes while beta testing were in progress

It takes time to be creative in each room... not that we've been in all of the rooms, but still

@josephine: What do you mean by multiple layer 6? Where did you see it?

Hey Olle- nevermind. I guess it's just the way the builder puts the sprites vs tiles and which row you put them. (I was referring to how the lever was hidden in the first room. My mistake, I thought they were in the same layer Tongue

)

In Room 13302;

Not sure if this is a JS, or my Jack has too much curiosity for his own good, but we could not get out of this little situation, and had to forfeit our progress and start again from the last save pedestal ! Embarrassed

This mansion has been well thought out with escape routes where ever needed, (maybe just hard to find), so I am thinking my Jack couldn't find it?

thanks,

SandyBean Smiley

PS: OTG and AK, thanks so much for building this mansion, it has been my 'afternoon treat' every day since you released it!
