Under rating threshold (show) So... First 40 coins buy you upgrades. Something should be available after the last 20... Walk on lava or pick up a ladder... something pointless to mess with when the game's done. And then obviously you'd need access to levels you have done already.

Under rating threshold (show) hint that will hopefully help those who got the ladder upgrade first: You have time to set a ladder when standing on top of the falling boxes.

Under rating threshold (show) This was a nice little diversion. I would comment that at some point I stopped getting all the gem messages at the end of levels; also after finishing the last level (also the last thing for 100%) it dumped me immediately to the main menu (probably similar bug to not seeing gem messages). I hit play again, and I was standing on the door already open, so I went through it and then saw the game ending message. (I feel I also have to point out it was a bit lame of an ending, but what are you gonna do I guess.)

Under rating threshold (show) Note: it is COMPLETELY possible to win with starting with either upgrade (seriously, it's a puzzle game, I switched to start with super hand strength after the save erase!). Also, in the sequel it needs a new ability: intelligence, learn the ability to smash enemies with your mace.

Under rating threshold (show) I just sarted playing, and it seems like this could be fun, but there is one thing annoying me. Why isn't the character centered at all times? This would make it a lot easier to get a picture of the maze you're in. Now you hae to go to the boarders of the screen to see whats there, it just gets a little annoying that's all.

Under rating threshold (show) ok so i see the main issue is people keep grabing the super strength first which grabs the ladder and keep getting stuck well i know where you are getting stuck and i was there for a while too and i am here to assure you that there is a alternate way to beat that level i am now about to beat the game with everyting collected so just keep trying. like this to keep it on top

Under rating threshold (show) I made the mistake of buying the ladder power-up first, so I reset my progress to restart and buy the edge climbing power-up. When I did the levels reset but I still have the ladder power-up, this makes things much easier but I believe that is a bug in the code.

Under rating threshold (show) Excellent game! 5/5. Yes, you are forced to run through levels again with almost nothing new, but that would be hard to avoid here. I picked the second ability first, because I figured the game would otherwise be much easier. That was a challenge with no coin left to barely get the next upgrade. If Tenacity -> Spiderman is possible, that confirms how easy the Ledge-first path must be...but getting the Super Strength then sounds like another challenge. Now I need to look for the previous games. --- The bottom level that you reach through Tenacity is strangely easy. The game is not entirely on a curve. --- That one room has a separate ladder embedded in the rock for no good reason. Slipped in the editor?

Under rating threshold (show) Holy crap - that was annoying. Finally figured out how to do it with Super-Strength first. Hint: on the annoying box level (why don't these rooms have names?), build ladders every other space. That can get you back up to the top to use the shovels.

Under rating threshold (show) Ok for the people who are stuck with ladder grab on what I'm assuming is the top right level with the middle drop. As you're dropping down you should lay ladders down but stagger them. That way you can get back up. Climb up the first ladder in the level to get the hammer then go to your right and get the 2 ladders and the shovel. Go back to the middle drop and drop down. As soon as you drop down use a ladder and grab it to climb back up so you're in the first area. Climb up again and go to your left so you can get the ladder there by using the shovel. Then head back down the center drop staggering your ladders every other drop. When you get to the bottom head to your left grab the shovels and ladders then go back to the center drop put a ladder down climb up and then grab and climb your way to the first area. Go to your right and bust the bricks with the shovels you just got. Grab the key then stand on the crate on the right and you're golden.

Under rating threshold (show) The people asking why he has a mace actually have a point. I think it would have been really cool to have either had a few enemies that the mace could deal with, or maybe make it the other way where it was designed so that the mace destroyed blocks but you needed something special to destroy enemies or something, with the mace not requiring any pickups or anything...or even if there were another two learnable skills that allow the mace to replace the pickaxe and shovel pickups, or a third to be able to use it on enemies...but of course that would have required the game to have been designed completely differently, so I guess that's just a recommendation for the future.

Under rating threshold (show) If you're ever stuck try ask yourself some questions. Can you stand on top of the ladder to reach a ledge? Can you run sideways across ladders and leap off the end to reach a ledge? Maybe you should do something on top of the box before it falls away? Tenacity is for climbing cliffs and hanging off ledges. Can you hang off the bottom rung of a ladder to grab that key/item? Do you only need half the number of ladders because you can place a ladder as the boxes fall? Strength is for reaching ladders but also for hanging off them. Can you save that pick/shovel for later and not grab the first key/coin you see? You can go around? Maybe there's another order to use your items. When are around, timing is crucial, don't miss out on your window. Pickaxes go from the side and shovels from the top, but they both break the same thing, so direction is important. Ladders are bridges vertically and horizontally. And lastly, you can save items if you get the key/coin on your way out.

Under rating threshold (show) Ok, so I bought the ladder thing because in the hub i needed it to get new levels, but now I can't get enough coins to buy the ledge grab thing, which is apparently what I should have bought first, and there's no reset progress option. This is a pretty glaring flaw.

Under rating threshold (show) Guys - It is not impossible to beat based on what upgrade you select first, only very tricky. There are exactly enough gems to get either of the 10 point upgrades first, but it involves revisiting levels 2-3 times each...
