It's pretty strange, but I beat it eventually.

Dangit. I was on level 4 when Internet Explorere decided to crash on me.

Posted by Mr.Funny (Member # 4467) on :

Really weird. A bit like Myst in some ways though.

Posted by Fitz (Member # 4803) on :

Yay! I was hoping for a more spectacular ending.

Posted by Raia (Member # 4700) on :

Are we going to say what it is?

[Monkeys]

Stupid little man. I can make the flowers grow and the bees come out of their hole, and the lightbulb head man come out, and the carriage to go up, but the little man will not get in it and go down!! He just sits and shakes him arm at me! [No No]

Umm...are there directions somewhere?

I don't seem to be getting the concept.

[Embarrassed]

Posted by Emperor Palpatine (Member # 3544) on :

Wow. That was not a game I should have played right after waking up.

[Sleep]

Posted by Feyd Baron (Member # 1407) on :

ludosti, you might try pushing the door knob... just a little FYI

Posted by ludosti (Member # 1772) on :

[Hail]

Thank you Feyd - I was going to tear my hear out from all the bee buzzing. I'd looked everywhere for something other than the snail and the man and the tree button....

Vana - it's all about the clicking!! [Evil]

this game is fun!

Posted by Raia (Member # 4700) on :

Is there a LINK??

Posted by Feyd Baron (Member # 1407) on :

Yes, the first smilely might or might not be a link.

And what ever this person was smoking when they made this, I want some. I love the singing laamas.

Feyd Baron, DoC

Posted by Strider (Member # 1807) on :

i totally can't figure out the anteater level..

Posted by Feyd Baron (Member # 1407) on :

As for the ending, all I can say is...

"And there was much rejoicing. yay"

Feyd Baron, DoC

Posted by DeathofBees (Member # 3862) on :

I think they were singing billy-goats.

The only thing I've figured out about the anteater level is that the lever allows the ants (or are they spiders?) to crawl over to where the eater is. And you can click on the flying bugs to make them chirp, but I don't think you can control their movements.

What next???

Posted by ludosti (Member # 1772) on :

Strider - you just have to be button boy!

Posted by ludosti (Member # 1772) on :

Where is your little man?

Posted by Strider (Member # 1807) on :

up by the door now. i've gotten that weird lock thingy to come out.

Posted by ludosti (Member # 1772) on :

Time to push all those lovely little buttons it gives you! More than once if necessary...

Posted by DeathofBees (Member # 3862) on :

OK, past the anteater. No luck with the smoke-blowing engine, though.

Posted by DeathofBees (Member # 3862) on :

What an amazing ending! Wow!

Posted by Strider (Member # 1807) on :

yeah...the clapping really did it for me..

Posted by Frisco (Member # 3765) on :

I'm still scratching my head.

Posted by Strider (Member # 1807) on :

how is that different from normal?

btw, welcome back Frisco. [Wave]

Posted by Vána (Member # 3262) on :

heeheehee...that was fun!

Posted by advice for robots (Member # 2544) on :

Crazy.

Posted by Jon Boy (Member # 4284) on :

Anyone want to give me a hint in the steam room?

Never mind. Somehow, in my random combinations of clicking, I got it.

Posted by asQmh (Member # 4590) on :

argh. I have randomly clicked the buttons fifty-eleventy-billion times. HELP.

urgh.

<mutters> am not obsessive compulsive. am not am not am not.</mutter>

Posted by Vána (Member # 3262) on :

Which buttons, Q? Which scene are you in?

Posted by asQmh (Member # 4590) on :

The room with the big steam-thingy. *sniff* I know that pushing - makes it go down and + makes it go up. Problem is, I'm not sure if I'm supposed to line the arrows up or what or if I'm supposed to make the pressure increase? I haven't got a clue.

I have a feeling it's something random which is why no method is working. *sigh*

Q.

[ August 01, 2003, 05:07 PM: Message edited by: asQmh ]

Posted by Vána (Member # 3262) on :

Hmm...not sure if there's a method or not...just keep pressing those buttons, I guess.

Posted by jeniwren (Member # 2002) on :

Okay, I give up. I can't figure out the steam room. What am I doing wrong?

Posted by asQmh (Member # 4590) on :

Other than the pressure being at 50 and just pressing the button a bjillion times, no, there's apparently no method.

*sigh*

but I have SEEN the promised land. I have finished the game, stayed the course, and . . . uh. . . defeated the singing llamas?

Q.

Posted by jeniwren (Member # 2002) on :

Nevermind. I don't know that there was a method to it, but I got to the end. What a weird game.

Any applause will do, I suppose. [Smile]

Posted by Dan_raven (Member # 3383) on :

Steam level. After playing with the buttons, I turned off the lights and hit the buttons. I worked for me with just one hit.

Posted by Human (Member # 2985) on :

[Wall Bash]

I can't even figure out the first level. I got the pipe/key thing...and I know what the red button does...but what the heck is next? How do I get outta this?

Posted by Head Ditch Digger (Member # 5085) on :

Look for the arrow.

Just finished.

Posted by ludosti (Member # 1772) on :

Human - time to make the ski lift work so the man can ski away

Am I just evil for making the llamas sing and then making them scram and fall in the hole? [Evil]

Time to work my way back to the infuriating steam room.... [Wall Bash]

Awww I love the music the squirrel with the lady face plays on her phonograph...

Posted by ludosti (Member # 1772) on :

Yay!! I did it! [The Wave]

You have to love the triumphal fanfare our little hero receives.

Posted by Leonide (Member # 4157) on :

there's no reason i shouldn't be able to play this, right? it just loads as a blank page for me [Frown]

Posted by Ryuko (Member # 5125) on :

I think it's just down...

Posted by Toes (Member # 4603) on :

For the life of me I can't get by the anteater. How in blazin hades do you get past it? Mushrooms? Ants? Flies? I'm confuseled! [Grumble]

Posted by ludosti (Member # 1772) on :

You have to run past while he's munching on an ant. Flip the lever to make them run past him.

Posted by Toes (Member # 4603) on :

Oh i got it...thank you guys...now onto the steam room. [Big Grin]
