The coloured blocks in this room are just way to fast, Jack always falls thru them. There should be a save in this area.
Trying to go up from right to left is near impossible!
THE PROBLEM WITH THOSE COLOURED BRICKS IS THAT THEY ARE TO SHORT FOR FOR JUMPING.
Alright Missy, in hard mode most players have adapted to the strategy of using the jump key followed by the movement key instead of vise versa. This is the technique used here that is very useful, and is used in almost all hard type mansions.
You have to be quick and basically always be jumping. Again, jump then move (other then the gap from getting on the first block) works very nicely.
Also, there is a save point at the end of this section, which is the trend I like to follow for my mansions.
The save point cannot be accessed from the lower level UNLESS Jack goes all the way to the roof and back down again to open the grey panel door 1st.
I think that with the beta testers using
EXTRA LIFE, they have not realized yet, that Jack may NOT be able to do this part AFTER coming down from those yellow blocks in the sky area to the left of this manor. I can't remember where the last save was before entering this manor at the yellow door. You mentioned that your style is to put a save at the end of an area. Well, that would mean that there should be a save close by to the yellow door before entering this manor.
Oh well, I guess we will have to wait for beta 3 & just try to remember it then.
