The extra door (stocking) on the calendar for this week has been deleted. Sponge's profile on the 12/24 entry has also deleted a reference to this. There is no explanation given as to why this has occurred.

The author gallery on the calendar lists an entry called "Surprise!" by Sponge on (epiphany/12). Does this mean that something is coming from Sponge next week on January 6?

Thanks Leeloo. Now I have the final secret.

Where is the starfish that goes in the slot on the back of the statue in the room with the 3 moveable red, green and blue blocks, and where the 2 keys are also used?

Thanks.

Are there any secrets in the "Ruined City" level (third level)?

This may be the wrong thread, but I don't know where to post the following:

How does one play the new level "A (not so) peaceful Christmas" (Advent Calendar December 11) on a PC with a keyboard?

The game just won't do any in-game movements or such with a keyboard, and there is no apparent way to change the controls to use ONLY a keyboard.

If it MUST be played on a Playstation (or a PC with a game controller), then that should have been stated in the readme file!!!

The author stated that he set the game up to force the player to play the game the way he wants it played; and, thus, this game was deliberately not made to be player-friendly!

Any ideas?

For the third coin, kick a machine on the right in the arcade game room.

I also cannot turn the electricity off in the power room, but maybe it is not supposed to be turned off.

I have a score of 2900 with 3 rabbits (secrets) and 19 airplanes (one of which I purchased with the 3 coins).

I hope someone posts a list of the locations of the 20 airplanes because I can't do anything else.

Nad,

1. Did you get the key on the floor behind the counter in the McDonalds restaurant? I couldn't get to it.

2. Can you save the game. I cannot.

Thanks.

That is a minor bug that may have been corrected in the later versions.

You should pull the switch and then save the game to a new slot. Now reload that new save and the game should work again (I tested your save in version 4).

This bug has also happened in some TR4 customlevels.

Some players may miss the final pickup of the game -- the fragment of the crawling chaos.

There is a place in the water in front of Lara, and I think slightly to her left where she can stand in the water. There is a slope there that Lara can run and jump onto. Then immediately backflip to the slope behind that and jump forward with a right curve onto the ledge in front of the cave with the emerald dragon.

Go to the back wall right side cave building. You reach this either by the underwater cave gate entrance or by going behind the pagoda building's garden and through the ancient building corridors to get to the inside cave. Go to the back wall cave doorway entrance, and the place for the figurine is there. Then the level ends.

It is a raising block. The switch is on the other side of the quicksand. Use the bamboo poles to get there.

Nad, your post #9 is nonsense! You completely misunderstood my post about the 2 phases (maybe a translation error).

Phase 1 is the flying demon. Phase 2 is the crawling bug. I merely mentioned which weapons worked best for me. Any weapon can be used. My discussion of 2 phases had absolutely NOTHING to do with the 2 endings. I merely wrote all of my comment in that same post at that time. Those comments were not linked in meaning.

Going through the doors is the suicide ending of Lovecraft's poem, but the valley ending matches the cat's dialogues and the title of the level.

Here is a save with Lara in the boat at the keyhole ledge.

I hope this works. The first save from "Sarkomand" is an 8 MB zipfile.

savegame.zip

The real clue is that the one to shoot has 2 black square eyes. The others have red and black square eyes.

Lefrik,

Where exactly in the "Cold Waste" level did you stop playing? I may be able to send you a zipped save from just before that place. I played version 9.

It is not possible to share saves after level 2 due to their size.

Neltharion just doesn't know when to quit making revisions.

He just uploaded version 11 of the game to TR Customs, and again without any explanation as to why.

Version 11 still uses TEN engine 1.9.1.0. It makes changes or bug fixes in 8 of the 15 levels from version 10.

No, you would just be wasting valuable ammo needed for the later levels. Just keep going up to the trapdoor and ladder that leads to the palace. There will be a battle there with centaurs and probably that guy also. He is up there in version 9, but I don't think he showed up there when I played version 3 first.

You do not need to kill every enemy in this game unless that gives you pleasure.
