Time Waster: The Telescope Game

JeeberD · 01-12-2004, 12:20 AM

So far I'm up to Level 7. Pretty addictive...

Linky

NYFAN · 01-12-2004, 12:34 AM

I'm on 12, but 11 was tricky. I like it

JeeberD · 01-12-2004, 12:40 AM

I'm a little stuck on 15 right now...

Edit: Nevermind, just beat it...

JeeberD · 01-12-2004, 12:48 AM

Dola-

Damn, 18 is tough...

Pumpy Tudors · 01-12-2004, 12:54 AM

Finished the first 15 levels. It gives a link to a bunch more levels once you complete the first 15. Nice.

JeeberD · 01-12-2004, 12:56 AM

Up to level 21 now...

mauchow · 01-12-2004, 02:21 AM

Yay, I'm so proud of myself.. I beat it

Good night, only took me a half hour... I love these kind of games, thank you whoever brought it upon us.

McSweeny · 01-12-2004, 02:34 AM

level 24 is killing me right now

McSweeny · 01-12-2004, 02:39 AM

McSweeny · 01-12-2004, 02:44 AM

woot woot! beat all 25 regular levels and it's not even 3 am! i'd do the master levels if it wasn't going blind

Groundhog · 01-12-2004, 04:38 AM

Level 23 is sapping away my will to live...

detroit_fan · 01-12-2004, 07:48 AM

Groundhog · 01-12-2004, 12:10 PM

I can't for the life of me beat 25.

cincyreds · 01-12-2004, 12:18 PM

I quit on level 10.

MJ4H · 01-12-2004, 12:56 PM

i am stuk on levul 1

mauchow · 01-12-2004, 04:23 PM

*Sigh* Level 4 was tough!!!!!!

In the Grandmaster level... I couldn't figure it out, but you have to take it logically, move this to move this, then you can move that, then this to there, then you can finally get it in.

Level 5 looks impossible. So I think I'm gonna quit here ! LOL

tucker342 · 01-12-2004, 05:16 PM

I'm on level 11 right now... fun game

Turd Ferguson · 01-12-2004, 06:36 PM

Made it to level 4 on the Grandmaster puzzles. Pretty tough.

DeToxRox · 01-12-2004, 07:31 PM

SOMEONE EXPLAIN THE MADNESS OF LEVEL 11!

DeToxRox · 01-12-2004, 07:38 PM

i think #11 is the bane of my existance.

SackAttack · 01-12-2004, 07:44 PM

If you're talking about the first #11, that one is ridiculously easy. Just remember that you can also use the telescopes to prevent other telescopes from fully extending.

DeToxRox · 01-12-2004, 07:50 PM

i have prevented these other blasted telescopes from fully extending, and it's only now causing my middle finger to fully extend.

SackAttack · 01-12-2004, 07:55 PM

If you really want/need help with it, drop me a line on AIM (Hadagal) and I'll walk ya through it. This IS #11 from the link posted above, right?

Barkeep49 · 01-12-2004, 08:32 PM

I can't figure out Grandmaster level 1... I whizzed through all the others (both 1-25 plus the Christmas, transport, and other version) and so I'm quite frustrated at not even knowing which of the four tubes should be my first move

Groundhog · 01-12-2004, 08:33 PM

Level 11... I found that dead easy.

Click the top pipe once, then the right pipe once, then the top pipe once, then the left pipe once and then the top pipe once.

SackAttack · 01-12-2004, 08:35 PM

Yeah, that's the solution I came up with, but I didn't want to spoil it for anybody who might be a) reading the thread, b) interested in playing, and c) still on one of the earlier levels.

Level 23 killed me last night. I need to go back and figure that bastard out...

McSweeny · 01-13-2004, 12:14 AM

the grandmaster levels are nasty! took me forever to get past the first two...

damn this is addictive!

finkenst · 01-13-2004, 12:16 AM

i hate you guys.

finkenst · 01-13-2004, 12:17 AM

dola,

and i mean that in that nicest way possible.

tucker342 · 01-13-2004, 12:38 AM

I'm stuck on level 25 right now(obviously I haven't been playing it since 4:00.

Barkeep49 · 01-13-2004, 11:08 AM

Tucker do you want some help on 25?

Right now I'm stuck on grandmaster 4. Perhaps some time off will do me good like it did when I got stuck on grandmaster 1

tucker342 · 01-13-2004, 11:29 AM

I finally beat it!

cuervo72 · 01-13-2004, 11:36 AM

This is pretty cool, I just started and I'm up to level 14.

Bah 4 was easy compared to 5...

Blade6119 · 01-13-2004, 12:06 PM

stuck on 15...

Fido · 01-13-2004, 12:27 PM

Has anyone managed to get par (or even tried to) on the first set of 15? I just can't seem to figure out the faster way to do 13 and 14 than my 9(+2) and 14(+4).

Blade6119 · 01-13-2004, 01:03 PM

The first 6 moves set up the last 5.

Wasabiak · 01-13-2004, 02:58 PM

Yeah, i've spent the last 30 mins off and on trying to figure out level 25. Now i have a bitchin headache. =/

Blade · 01-13-2004, 03:48 PM

A lot of fun indeed! Though, I was playing it as a way to avoid work, but it was more brain-draining than the work I was avoiding!

Barkeep49 · 01-13-2004, 05:28 PM

Here's a clue for people stuck on 25:

Your first seven moves should to get a green, red, and purple telescope into the right place to stop the ball later on. Only then should you use the telescope the ball is attached to.

Barkeep49 · 01-24-2004, 02:53 PM

There are type of levels (block levels) up. They're about as challenging as the transporter levels, although I found them less fun.
