Surprisingly for such a small level, Forestidia's solution is a backroute (which might have made it more fiddly than necessary). I'll fix it by increasing the spawn interval a little and post an update. Nepster's solution is intended, modulo a minor difference which I don't care too much about.
Icho's solutions are the same as the Forestidia's and Nepster's solution.

I've solved Proxima's level. Wasn't immediately obvious (also, the fall looks a bit like a splat fall due to the large zoom), but I managed. Nice one. :)

Ah crap. It was so long I forgot what rule 2 was actually about. I will fix this.

Comment on your solution to my R1 level:

You got it totally wrong! (click to show/hide)

Do you have a replay for this other solution you're thinking of?
See attachment for a less perfectly optimized one that fails due to about 1-1,5 seconds.

Now the promised comments on the Rank 1 levels:

Flopsy (click to show/hide)

Well if you simply
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
then there wouldn't be timing issues.

But I think I simply pm you the replay. ;P

The levels are resolved. :)

I think I am a lot closer now in Nessy's levels and I really dig my found solutions, great levels. :thumbsup:

And I saved all on Flopsy's level now -- maybe change the intended way to my solution if it's more elegant. I did that quite a few times myself and here you won't have to deal with fixing in Rule 1 anymore. ;)
