    Practice! They're all beatable. Once I managed to finish each level with my first ball along the fastest route I pretty much left it as that, I didn't exactly refine each run perfectly.

    I beat them all also, but I was usually 20 seconds behind ur time. Closest I got was 19 to your 11 on level 4 lol. U obviously put a lot of time into the levels and playing them, keep up the good work!

    Dude, Midian, your pack is killing me... Lmao, I can't even get past the first board. I mean, I've been trying it for the past hour. :(
    I suck at this game... lol

    You have to at least do the first level, cause the second one has your name on it!

    I know!!!! That's why I'm sticking to it! :) I'm going to finish this level before tonight is over, even if it kills me! :p Like, the level isn't aggravating hard, but like "I want to finish it cause it's fun" hard lol, does that make sense?

    Yeah that's why I like the classic levels, they can be hard without being frustrating. Some of the new ones just throw a million bumpers and cannons at you and it's more luck than anything... those get frustrating. I'd rather have to rely on my skills than get a lucky bounce.

    What part of the level is the hardest?

    Exactly how I feel! :)

    And, the half circle on the very right side of the level. Like, I feel like if I don't hurry through that, then I'll fall in the holes. But, if I hurry, I'll be going to fast to stop from falling in the holes in the top right of the level.

    Yes.

    bumpers frustrate me most when there are holes around. they just get annoying. not that it's a bad thing to include the game, it's a nice obstacle, but i'm glad to say that not putting them in your levels made them more fun :)

    Yeah you gotta be careful how you use those bumpers... if I ever stick two in a level I'll make sure there's a decent gap in between.

    That's the idea :) I always go underneath the first hole, then as soon as my ball rolls over the curved piece I try to straighten out the iPod quickly to stop it bouncing on the wood around those two holes.

    I actually moved that first hole a few places to the left just before I published, you had to go even faster before :p

    One of the trickiest maneuvers in the game is when you're forced to use speed and then instantly slow down afterwards... a couple of my levels do that with narrow passages, making you tilt the iPhone more and then having a hole right afterwards. I've played a few levels where people use cavities (those little dips in the floor) to do the same thing, and they always get me killed.

    ...so I'm thinking about using them soon :)

    Edit: another great trick that doesn't get used much... in some instances it's possible to have a hole that's impossible get over unless you bounce off a bit of wood first. Really cool cause it tricks you into thinking the level isn't able to be completed. Kinda hard to do those, but I'm gonna try and include one somewhere.
