Subject: Re: "Holy Shit!!!" - some more problems

I am sorry to disappoint you, DrUnKeN mAsTeR!!!, but "Holy Shit!!!" is still not completable AFAICT. This is because of the item on the right-hand side of "Hells Bells" (29) - it cannot be reached. You
should shorten the conveyor by one block for that.

I know what happened here, I made a change to this room after I'd
already playtested it, and must have just overlooked the
conveyor......Silly me!!!

There are also two other serious problems I found in the rooms I
hadn't played before. Both in the same room, and both of the same
nature, actually: you have to sacrifice two lives in the room "A
little bit toasty" (27) - which is a lot for a game you start with
just two lives:

- after collecting the rightmost item you have no way of going back safely, because the crumbling floor is there no more.

- in order to collect the second-from-the-right item you have to
sacrifice a life, because there is no way to jump for it without
falling to your death.

To be honest unlike the other room I really have no idea how this
happened because I'm certain I'd played this room to completion?
Maybe I changed the layout slightly when I was boozed without even
realising?

So, three little fixes and the game will be just fine :-) . Holy
shit!!! :-)

Yes um! Third time lucky eh? Let's hope this will be the end of this
bugfixing malarkey for a while :)

Oh by the way the file is in the file section fixed again.
