test subject green

The latest puzzle platformer by Nitrome is here: after Test Subject Blue, meet Test Subject Green (who looks very blue to me).

A nice 2nd Part of this game, but loading takes sooooooo long :(

Carly said...

I'm stuck on level 8. The timer to turn off the transporter beams isn't long enough for me to get killed and then jump across to the finish. Anybody got any ideas how to beat level 8?

Joelle said...

Carly, you need to fall into the laser as you shoot the transporter beam switch. Then the bullet will hit the button as you are regenerating and you'll have time to get all the way across.

Level 24 is where it gets down to insane timing. Really fun up there.

Done, nice one.

@Bart- Test Subject Green is the green badguy, not the blue goodguy.

i dont know, ive loved nitromes games for a while, but since the icebreakers, the games on there just havent been as good

Carly said...

Thank you, Joelle. I had done that, but it didn't work. But I figured out if I jump right, turn and fire left, to get killed on the right side, it will give me enough time. To think of that only took me another 30 attempts. Jumping left didn't do it. Sigh.. onto the next level :)

I have a real problem with platformers wherein a can't readily make a jump because the platform above stops me from reaching the full height of my jump.

If that situation made the jump impossible, then, well, okay. That's just part of the maze. But when it makes the jump hard enough that I have to try it over and over, it's just annoying, not part of anything I call a "game."

Also, at the age of 52, my eyes aren't what they used to be, so reading the words on the clipboard was hard.

I give this one a grade of "C."

Carly said...

Finished with 56725, but didn't really watch the time. Good game overall :)

Yeah, the last set of levels rely on repetition. Baddies respawn immediately, no contol of switches, jumps have to be timed within 1/1000 of a second.

I hate being faster than the walkthrough geeks. I'm stuck on level 20 and I can't find any help online. I can't reach anything higher than the lowest 2 platforms. Where do I go from here? Anyone?

Megan said...

OOHH, never mind!! ha ha, the power of posting. I wasn't getting the "wrapping portal" idea.

Megan, time your jumps with the moving portal.

Niall said...

Level 8!!! Gaaaahhh!!!

Anonymous said...

lvl 8: get the key, stand at the 2nd highest platform..shoot the mirror to turn off portal and scram to the pod

Niall said...

Thanks. I don't know why I didn't see that.

Hector said...

Lvl 25? Seriously? I give up

Anonymous said...

level 25: My strategy was to at the beginning, crouch and quickly shoot at the copycat for at least three cycles of the platforms. That way when you start platform jumping the copycat is busy copying your shooting and you can leave him in the dust and do the platforms without him on your heels.

I can't do level 9! I always get hit at the end. Can someone help me?

Unknown said...

Hi Anonymous: It's a matter of being fast to outrun the guns. I just played it again, and got hit while lingering. When you jumped on the uppermost platform, you need to jump left immediately and start running, because the guns will have seen you by that time. You should be able to make it if you hustle. Good luck!.

level 24....please post a hint or two....

Anonymous said...

I don't think I understand level 9. I can't get off the ground.

Anonymous said...

hey if stuck on level 9 you have to jump on the lazer shooter thing to get up

Audrey said...

I finally beat this. So happy. I then proceeded to curse at the comp screen to show it who was boss.

midge said...

I'm up to level 29....how do you reach the center? I've already killed both slimes....going back and forth through the blue, and peach colors...hints please?

midge said...
