Mansion Comments: Jasperlone Mountains

[VernJensen]

Post here for bugs / comments / suggestions for Jasperlone Mountains.

Remember to mention the room number (push Command-D to see it in the upper-left corner) and difficulty (Easy Normal, Hard) you are playing.

First off, I noticed the real name of the mansion is Jasperlane, not Jasperlone - so that should be corrected in the filename and the name of this board.

In room 14105, my Jack was on the middle level and jumped onto the yellow platform, which wasn't moving yet because he hadn't been to the bottom level yet to pull the lever. Then he went into the room to the right, but the gray door was closed. So he had to make a very difficult jump from the yellow platform to the bottom level where the lever is. It took several tries, so it's probably too hard for a Normal mansion.

I know that's not what you intended, but you know how it goes. Anything can happen.

Loving this mansion, by the way. It's huge and very good for exploring. Love the design, too.

I have no idea why I put Jasperlane in the mansion name box in the editor. It's Jasperlone, just to clarify. Oops.

The idea of in 14105 is that you turn on the platform before going over to the area with the grey doors. I didn't intend it to be possible to jump over to the platform with that conveyor belt. I was throwing ideas around in my head what to put here, and I guess I forgot to remove that conveyor belt.

However, I have decided the conveyor belt will stay for normal (and hard), just to make it a bit more fun to jump onto that platform.

I will fix this so you must activate the platform by making the platform start on the upper left part of it's track.

Finished Jasperlone Mts Normal with 100% secrets. Missed $75 and ended up with an extra yellow key, though. I looked at the map for an unopened yellow door but didn't see one.

For the most part, I think this is a Normal mansion, with the exceptions listed below which I feel are hard:

15305 - platform could be wider, it's a bit difficult as is

14504 - too many critters

14501 - platforms just a bit too difficult?

14297 - Jack jumped off the yellow platform to the lower left corner to see if there was a secret; then he had to sacrifice a life to get out, because he couldn't jump back onto the platform.

15097 - the jump from the yellow platform to the lower left is very difficult.

13900 - conveyor belts a bit too difficult combined with the skeleton fish

That's exactly the kind of feedback I'm looking for, along with the Jack-stucks Missy is finding, and the other problems mapman and others have found. You all are doing a GREAT job beta testing -- keep it up!!

Missy, the shield in 15099 will be picked up... eventually.

For 14300, use your troll on the bottom to pull levers.

You are a God Sent!  I aborted & started again, but I will check that feature out as soon as I get back up there. 
I guess I really should watch the tutorial!  lololol

But that Shield does not look like it can be p/u.  I will take your word for it.  lolololol
I will remove the post.

I just used the trolls.....way to coooool!!! Sure do have to keep your eyes open in this mansion. Awesome!!!
Thanks Again!

Normal:  Room 14898 & 14297

pic below 14989, the grey bat brick came from way, way above & just stays there, forcing Jack to go back up the long way. hmmmm,  I would have liked it if it would bounce back up after Jack collects the shield.

Room 14297, I agree with Semi-Native. Jack can't get out safely from the lever spot.

Thanks guys for your findings, glad you like the mansion.

I went over the things Semi said for too difficult -- I agree with just about all of them. Only thing is 14501 I can't really do much about that, it seems just fine to me for a normal mansion. Anything slower then 4 really is for an easy mansion, usually.

Oh, and in 15097, you're not meant to jump down there with the yellow platform!  I'll add some bricks to make it not possible.

Ah yes, Missy - I found that out yesterday, and discovered that one of the levers makes the action permanent, so the platforms are always moving ! They aren't meant to be moving when you come in on that grey bat platform.

If you're looking for a way to that shield, pay close attention to finding a grey bat platform behind some pillars, in the lower areas!

Oh and the extra yellow key, Semi -- I just remembered that the other day. I meant to have a secret near the end for you to use it, and forgot to add it. It shall be there next beta patch!

Normal: Room 15097

see pic. the lever on the lower right stops the moving grey brick. Why? then the lever is stuck. Jack has to leave the room to re-set??

I agree, the moving yellow brick is to short as bottom left level is recessed to much.
