Section 8

[aquaMat]

Brell,
I must second Semi-Native's view.

I absolutely love your section, with all those strange bits and new ideas, but I really believe it's too hard for being NORMAL.....
(what with all those ladder jumps, belt / platform jumps etc ....).

On the other hand.... so what.... let's just call it

the hardest section of Catacombs

.

[brell]

Well, people have very different views on what is hard, normal, etc. IMO, many parts of the previous sections are much harder than anything in my section.

In my section there is only 1 (ONE!) ladderjump.

About the belts: I assume aquaMat means the room with a scorpion on one belt. If you get rid of that scorpion it is a very plain sailing, both up and down to the bottomfloor.

I agree with that. Semi-Native's vine jumps feel easy to me. Because I am pretty good in correcting jumps BEFORE landing. Since MMaM and HoW I am specialised in squirrel jumps, you know. But ... please don't remember me of Maniac's zapper beams in the 3rd section. Or one of the final rooms in Falcon Manor

EASY

. What a hell ... for ME.

And besides that. A part of a mansion may look

hard

at a first walkthrough and, without ever having been

normal

, the second time it is already

easy

... It is often harder to explain if a (part of a) mansion is hard or not, then to get through it! ;D

Mmmh... If I remember well, it was difficult only in its first version. Now you can switch them off before passing them, or at least passing through most of them.

I have trouble with red birds (even the harmless ones for some reason :-?) and, most of it, the fish [smiley=shocked.gif]

[suztours]

Toybox, I'm with you on those red birds! I think I've figured out the fish, generally, but I always get nervous when I see a red bird flying about - and usually get killed by at least one each time!

The room with the vines took some time and tries to sus out, Semi-native! I also had to cheat to find the last 50 money to get 40000. There was no indication to look there and I am a bit impatience to try and try again.

I found a bug!!! Jack can pass the first red door, room 15710, without the key! If he jumps while sinking on the brick he can somehow jump over the top of the door. He has done it several times.

When is the next section ready?????

[aquaMat]

Brell... I need your help !!

I simply can't continue in room # 15510, as I find NO WAY whatsoever to get to the blue key (among the gold coins on top of that ledge, below the big spider).... there is a moving platform.... but no matter from where I try to jump I end up dead (falling to death).
Now if this ain't HARD I don't know what is...... I just don't get it. 8-) :

How am I supposed to reach the blue key ????

[Mikee]

Where can I download the new version of Catacombs?

Maybe you should try something else, aquamat? Something not so obvious.

brell is away for a few days. But I am sure that his his replies may be expected soon.
