I havent been able to find any videos that really show how to finish this dreaded level so I tried to make one that was a little easier to see what exactly you need to look for/do.

Please check it out and let me know your feedback on how bad it is, or how to improve it.

I am also thinking of making a very basic strategy video to help progress those players who are still stuck below 100k.

Thanks for your input!
 
jump,jump,jump,jump,jump,jump,jump,jump climb the ladder jump,jump climb the ladder run like hell then wait now run back and climb the last ladder. hope this helps ya:)
 
No improvement necessary. Perfect video. Way better than a crude drawing with a series of numbers. I just need to get off my ass and work on my game now. I'm stuck at the 3rd elevators myself.
 
Thanks guys, I was hoping for this response.

I noticed I put "its safe to climb the latter" instead of ladder....

oh well
 
thanks for posting that. i've passed that a few times, but i've never thought to stand on the edge of the platform like that. i'll have to try that.
 
The biggest challenge for me is recognizing when I have to go back if the next spring is the same. It all happens so fast there's just no time to second guess.

Nice vid Gonzo22! I might understand this alittle bit better now after watching that!
 
It's when you have to go back that's difficult. I usually just wait until I get two good springs in a row, and then I go on the second one (because what are the chances you'll get 3 in a row?) It usually works, but it's not a good as being able to back-track and may be keeping me from breaking 300,000.
 
Not to bash the OP, as it's a great video.

But vids and how-to's did pretty much dick-all for me when it came to execution.

It's all about practice. Just getting yer arse to level 2-3 and trying over and over and over again. There's a system to doing it. But how you go about applying it to your game needs to be learned by sheer trial and error.

Once getting it down on my own terms, it was much easier on the psyche. I wasn't worried if I was doing it "right" or "wrong". (Not implying that's what the OP is instructing... ;) )
