@frogandhat - you were being cunning with the club, but i think you need to follow the same sort of advice you gave to Meph... :wink:

I imagine you have to be pretty much pixel perfect, as I've tried every place I can find in all the areas that frogandhat mentions, and still no joy! :wall:

nahh you don't have to be. all the times i've tried it it's worked every time. and i've not even tried to be accurate! :tongue:

hmmm i dunno. i mean, it's only taken slider 38mins to complete the game! so to get part way shouldn't take all that long.

besides, as i said, you may think of things while you're doing that. :tongue:

my next game will have save 'points', that you can only save the game when you reach. mind you, it's MUCH better suited to that sort of thing than MSD... (ooo hint hint)

i know not having a save makes its harder but its just kills the fun having to re do everything.. let alone finding the time to do it in one go.. maybe a better solution would be having the save but ONE life (with energy) you would have to be really carful its still challenging.. but wouldn’t have to keep starting from scratch every day??? just an idea. it works for long and short games too.

I posted something similar a few days back the repetition when you get stuck of having to start from scatch again & redo, maybe for smaller games (although I note this is described as large still) of having limited saves, ie you have 3 saves like lives, just an idea.

I got zapped trying to find the main use of the golf club by the lightening, so stuck on that with no idea at present, got the bucket of bone oil, got rid of the thorn, dunno how to get past the now stationery goat, at a loss how to get the standing stone - can get to pick it up but cant get back out, no idea what to do with the rock that crumbles unless it similar to spellbound later in the game.

[/quote]

s'cuse me? the goat shouldn't still be there if you used the thorn. it runs away. or did you exit the room then re-enter as it was doing so?

[/quote]

you simply put it down on the larger stone, it rises you up, and you jump out.

it isn't used for anything else.... :tongue:

Oh blimey shouldnt it, ive spent ages & ages thinking I needed to use a 2nd item {yolkfolk}:tired: , even tried swinging the golf club on its hind to shift it out the way lol, it was just stood stationery facing the other way.

I may have gone of screen perhaps yes as you lose a life if it hits you so I did back up whilst testing the said item. Would this be a bug, suppose would be..mmm.. {yolkfolk}:scratch:

hmm yeah possibly. it resets it if you go off screen. so if youd used the item and it was running away, then you went off screen, it would re-set it. there's possibly a fix for that, but without looking i'm not sure how easy it would be. the best thing to do is to drop the item near to the center of the screen then move a small distance away from it.

save points sound like a good idea.
i dunno how slider did that in 30 odd minutes... {yolkfolk}:clap:

I can't seem to drop the Heavy Rock without it braking up, get to the Golf Club, get the Bones or go down the "Trap Door" in the West Chamber {yolkfolk}:scratch:

LDoY - yes. you're able to use the golf club on the main puzzle as soon as you get it (ooo hint hint) :smile:

Annie, if you've got past the bees then i think there are a few puzzles open to you, one of which isn't at all obvious until you do it!

Bees what Bees I haven't go past the part where you get the Golf Club from :cry:

:umm: have you managed to get past the reservoir yet?

actually, what items do you have?

[/quote]

Nope not been past the reservoir yet.

I have : A Log, Lumberjack Axe, Rain Coat, Sharp Knife, Stuttering Hamlet Book, Crowbar, Thorn, Branch, A Pickaxe & Rolled Up Newspaper.

Think im a bit below par on this golf club puzzle lol, tried all the safe areas I can see which may need actioning to progress, only other main puzzles that come to mind which have danger cos I keep losing lives are the lightening bolt which seems you need to do to get a star only which is prob later in the game & the eagle (edited to correct) on the exposed ledge.

Just cant see any other main puzzle, dunno if ive not done something prior that I need to do beforehand to let me use it {yolkfolk}:puzzled:

True dizzy gameplay, getting stuck and dizzying around trying to figure out the next move to progress {yolkfolk}:tongue:
