    Is it not possible to make it so that a) you can create 3 objectives in the level editor, even if it's just pre-selected from a drop-down list, and b) you can see what progress you've made on the levels that have been downloaded, that way it creates a bit more interest in downloading and actually completing the user levels, and you get something to show for it?

    I've reached the conclusion that Dragon's Teeth is impossible, so I'm giving up on it as I've clearly reached the threshold of what I'm capable of doing in this game. A shame that the difficulty should spike so badly at that point (230 restarts in 16 minutes before I finally gave up!) but there you go.

    I look forward to the next update and some hopefully less painful new levels to try (please, no more like Way of Sun!).

    230 restarts and 16 minutes -it's nothing, believe me! To get all 3 stars on Dragon's Teeth I spent minimum 1 hour. So keep practicing, don't give up!

    Yeah, I must agree with that. Just 230 restarts and 16 minutes really is nothing for extreme level. that's why it's called EXTREME! :) You can give up after 2 hours and 1000 restarts.. but I noticed the more I play the better I get as you muscles will memorise the pattern and you will keep getting better and better.. Don't give up ;)

    Just specially logged in to say this: thank you to whoever created The Verdict in hard! Most creative level I've ever played and exactly what I was looking for with this game!

    I don't think it's hard because of difficult obstacles. It just needs figuring out what to do. Hope the video helped!

    The spike you are talking about happens in the second last level. About time it got extreme, wouldn't you think so :). But once you do manage dragon's teeth, it's fairly easy to repeat the feat. So completing it the first time is a lot more difficult than 3-starring it. Trying looking at a youtube video.

    Now, I ask this in as grim a tone as possible, have you tried Joker Baron 4 yet?

    Just posting what I posted on facebook:

    Add the ability to put star objectives. There are anyways only a handful of options there. Coins, pumpkins, time limit, finishing, and no crash. The tricky part will be ensuring the objectives are achievable. So basically you will have to create a separate save slot kind of a thing for a test run which lets you have multiple tries for a level build where it will let sharing be possible only when the three objectives are met. BUt if you pull this off, you will really not need to give any updates in the game with the number of user levels out there.

    Oh and also... a way to manage downloaded levels. I have over 100 user levels downloaded and its a pain having to sort through them to play a specific one!

    Finished a new level theme today for the udpate:

    Notice the younger Gebetto with huge eyes, I think many of you were requesting that :) You can also see a glimpse of the eagle on Baron's jacket. The old Baron doesn't have it, it has worn off.

    To clarify, 2 weeks ago, I wrote the following...

    Believe me, I've tried. The 230 restarts/16 minutes of swearing was simply the straw that broke the camel's back

    I just can't see it happening. It's such a random section: I don't even understand what the game wants from me. :(

    Up to this point, I've 3 starred every level with Domovoi (don't get me started on the Baron!). The problem now is that I have literally nowhere else to go - Motherland is even worse for me - so I'd say the sudden spike is pretty jarring. I'm not asking for it to be changed; instead I'm merely acknowledging that I can't do it and just moving on to other games until some less punishing new levels appear.

    As for JB4... well, I can't pass 2 of the levels that are required to unlock it (let alone 3 star them), so that would be a no.

    Yeah, I completely get what you're saying. I know that feeling and thinking that I will never ever beat the level, as I could not even see how possibly I could get over the spikes. It felt very random, but I kept trying and then actually found a way how to get over the spikes very slowly one by one. It's very hard but doable. You kinda make sure the whole time to stay on your rear wheel and then get a bit of speed and jump on the next spike, wiggle around on top of it a bit to position your back wheel on the spike and get a bit of speed and jump onto the next one etc.

    Anyway, what I'm trying to say is that there is a system to every level how ot beat it, think about it almost as a puzzle ;) I understand if you don't want to play anymore, but you may as well keep trying until new levels arrive in the next update :)

    Still, congrats on 3 staring all the previous levels, that still requires some great skills!

    Been practicing motherland for the coming update. Down under 5 minutes now on a good run. What times are other people getting?
    When is the update coming?

    Under 5 minutes! That's brilliant. I had 6:40 when I eventually stopped playing the level waiting for the leaderboard fix. I have started playing it again, but keep crashing at the two wheelie tunnels. I simply can not fall out of the tunnel without crashing. At this point I am trying to recollect how I managed to do it on 6:40 run.

    Any help?

    No real help I guess. It is just such a long level, that I treat it as lots of small sections to try and better my times. But those 2 wheelie tunnels are poorly made in my opinion. Usually works for me around half the time
