8 BALL CORNER POCKET – Walkthrough Start with two gruntz. -Walk Barehanded (1) over the crumble bridge to the black one-time switch (BOTS) in the south, and then to the BOTS in the east. - Barehanded (2) goez over the crumble bridge to the northernmost dock. - SAVE and send both gruntz through the blue warpz. - Barehanded (1) landz on a yellow toggle switch (YTS) which sendz the 8 ballz in the north over the BOTS’. The first set of black pyramidz to your right should all go down. If they don’t, you can reset the toggle switch, or hit F8 and try again. When they’re all down, SAVE. - Barehanded (1) goez to the right to the next YTS. Immediately return to Barehanded (2) and start making your way through the rolling ballz to the YTS on the right. You have to make it there before the ball to south of #1 reachez the 2-way arrow by the BOTS’. The switch must point right in order to free you. (This is a matter of timing, screaming, timing, hitting the keyboard, timing, trial, and error. It is possible. If a 60 year old with arthritis can do, so can you!) Once you’re through, SAVE!!! You don’t want to do it again, do you? GooRoo's note: I went down, then diagonally down right, then right, then diagonally up right and finally right to the Yellow Toggle Switch. Difficult, but not impossible ... but wear a helmet to prevent hair loss. - Barehanded (2) then takez a walk to the left past the circling light, then right past the two enemy spongegunz and north to the small pool. Being careful of the enemy welderz to the east, get the coin and hit the BOTS, then hurry to the toobz and head into the larger pool. Dispatch the welderz and get the megaphone, which callz for gauntletz. (Save for your friend.) Proceed to the dock in the northeast. SAVE. Now make you way through the red pyramids to the BOTS in the south. _ Give the gauntletz to #1 and send him south to break the big dice. Cross the toggling bridge to the dock in the south. Get rid of the enemy spongegun and hit the blue toggle switch (BTS). Go back around the bridge to the left dock and step on the BTS over there. Go back around the bridge and come at the Coin from the right side, then exit again on the left dock. Now go across the crumble bridge in the south to get that Coin. Leave via the arrows and go south to get the Wingz. Fly to the right and get more Wingz. Then fly north to the Spongegun. Walk south to the Yellow Hold Switch (YHS). Step on and off the switch to work the rolling 8 ball around the 2-way arrowz until all the Black Pyramidz are down. Now go left and step on the BTS raising the bridge in the pool to the east. Walk to the right side of the pool and eliminate the enemy spongegun on the dock. Cross the bridge, getting rid of all the enemy spongegunz as you go, EXCEPT for the one by the BTS. Go back to the dock above the last enemy spongegun and shoot him to the BTS, but be quick as the switch will collapse the bridge you’re standing on. It will also flip the Red Bridge Tile (2 Red Chip Tilez in the modified version) by the dock to the west, which leads to the Coin on the Crumble Tile on the other end of the Toggling bridge. GO FOR IT and good luck! ( I believe this is impossible as the crumble chip crumblez the second you step on it.) GooRoo note: the Crumble Bridge Tile will hold long enough to acquire the Coin, but it is virtually impossible to return to safety. In the modified version, one Toggling Bridge Tile has been replaced with a Switchable Bridge Tile, changing the 'impossible' task to one that is merely extremely difficult. Now go to the north and shoot the enemy swordz off their chip islandz. - Toobz (2) now goes through the silver pyramidz and takez out the four enemy toobz in the triangular pool. You have a choice of fighting each of them (there’s lotz of Zap Cola ... none of it useful, because of where they are placed), or simply luring them to the silver pyramidz and watching them evaporate as you waltz through. Go back one more time for the coin. ( I think this is also impossible. You can’t pick up a coin unless you have something to stand on.) In the modified version, there is a Blue Toggle Switch that will raise a Bridge Tile under the Coin. SAVE! - Toobz (2) now hitz the secret switch and goes for the coin south of where the enemy swordz were. [Or send spongegun (1) to get it.] - Now both gruntz proceed to the bridge at the pool. Get rid of the remaining enemy spongegun. - On the other side of the pool is a coin behind a tree surrounded by two arrowz. Spongegun (1) should be able to shoot Toobz over the Arrow. If you do it, please let me know how. GooRoo note: SpongeGun shootz at the Arrow, and Toobz is moved onto the Arrow as the Sponge arrivez. - Toobz (2) now getz the Spongegun. Everyone now headz west (left) to the last pool. Along the way, you’ll find a conversion power-up. If you take it, you’ll die looking for someone to use it on. If you don’t take it, you can’t get a perfect. (Don’t take it, you can’t finish the level with only one grunt, and chancez are you won’t get a perfect anyway.) GooRoo note: in the modified version, this is now a Warp letter "W", so that the solver may not only achieve a perfect score, but receive the "PERFECT!" applause after bringing the Warpstone to the King. - Spongegun (1) goez to the lower dock on the right. SAVE! Go across the flipping bridge on the bottom and up to middle column to get the Bomb. Leave on the right chip and go to the dock in the east. This will open a Red Warp that your second spongegun (2) will go through. - Spongegun (2) goez through the Red Warp. As soon as you land, MOVE! Go to the dock on your right and get the Coin. Then work your way to the Coin in the northwest, then to the Coin in the northeast and finally to the Coin in the southeast and the Red Warp. When you come back, head off to get rid of the enemy on the northern island. - Bomb (1) now goez back to the southern dock, crossing up to land on it from the north side. He now goez to the lower dock on the left side and crossez the Toggling Bridge to use the Megaphone to call for Gauntletz. Give them to #2. SAVE!!! - We’re almost home now, but be quick here. You may have to run through this a few timez to get the timing down. Gauntletz (2) stepz on the Silver Timer Switch (STS). Immediately, Bomb (1) goez across the Silver Pyramid, where he has to step on another STS. Gauntletz (2) then stepz on the STS again and goez through the Silver Pyramidz and down to the dock. As he’s walking, Bomb (1) blowz up the Gold Brick. Gauntletz (2) crossez the Toggling Bridge and the (now down) Silver Pyramid, breakz the remaining Brick, pickz up the Warpstone, and givez it to the King. THE END There is a slight difference in the statisticz between the original and the modified version of the Custom Level. The PowerUp in the original is gone, and (since there is now a Warp Letter retrievable), the solver may be rewarded with "Perfect!" scrolling across the page from left to right. ;^)
