1000 Heroz for iphone/ipad - Custom League: ILX

I really really hope they add the Trials HD killer app: video replays of the top runs.

fck this game

~restarts~

See yesterday's I understood, it was just about hitting that squidgy rubber ball at the right angle so you got a boost over the next part of the level. Didn't manage to actually do it (without then fucking up something else minor) but at least I understood it. Today though? No idea, it's just a straight run with a few annoying pebbles to dodge, isn't it?

its all about landing the last springy branch in between the mound and the bridge

unless you can somehow clear that mound?

top bitches

no one, this one is all about the momentum you get as you climb the hill after the first bridge and fall into the breezy cave zone. i've only been able to nail it a few times, but that was when i jumped ahead of most of you suckas

fck this game

~restarts~

OTM

question related to this map - and this is a question that i believe was first asked by aristotle - do you guys do a little jump off of the first rock and land on the right edge of the second set of rocks, giving you momentum to slide across the bridge and work your way up the first hill? or do you just run over the first rock, run over the second set of rocks (no jumps), and then land on the other side of the bridge before heading up the first hill?

I was doing walk, walk, and then pull off the gas a little bit so I land right next to the bridge rather than right at the base of the hill in order to get a bit of momentum, but once or twice I had runs where I actually landed to the left of the bridge and somehow got across the bridge without slowing down (maybe because I slightly hopped without realizing it?) and got even more speed. But I couldn't duplicate that at all whereas I could reliably redo the first strategy.

I do the first, z s

dat momentum

aw man, just been practising with just running no jumping, and sometimes you land on the bridge and stop when you hit the end; sometimes you go too far and land on the uphill; but sometimes you hit the sweet flat bit jsut after and keep on going. so you get different results doing exactly the same thing? fuk dat,

due to some sort of bug (maybe?) in the game, the first time you do it, you're really slow and you don't make it across the bridge, but all subsequent attempts, you do. Weird. But if you just hold right as soon as the clock starts, you should get very similar results from run #2 on

hmmmmmm if i hold right *before* the clock starts, which is the only sure-fire way to get the same timing every time, then i go too far. but that is consistent i guess. still means that timing yr start makes a difference which is a bit grrr.

just had an epic run with 2 minutes left. #1 ILXOR FEVER

xpost to ledge

i should have added that in the middle of the leap across the bridge, you need to let up for a split second so you don't go too far

ffffffffuuuuuuuuuuuuu

F U

you know, i ended up really really really hating that level

when does the next level go live?

The beautiful thing about this game is that there's always a new level tomorrow.

when does the next level go live?

Are these gamecentre names btw? Going to start farming you all if so.

FU25

you've got 993 other days to be heroz, cozen!

so, I just joined another custom league with a few friends of mine. But now I realized you can only be in one custom league at a time. Can anyone check and see if i still show up in the ILX league, even though I have another custom league entered right now in the Options? (I'm ZS25)

if you finished the latest one, then no, you're not showing up

Dang, that's a bummer. I'll switch back to ilx league :). Thanks for checking

just collected 5000 *s in an attempt to regain my throne, no joy ;_;

okay, i'm in

is it poss to leap the boulder from the ledge, just after the springy twig and before the mound of rocks, to land on the right of the spring? (near the end)

think I have a good line but just cant execute it

that sounds impossible. might make a landing on the boulder at best?

feel there would be too much airtime even if you did make it.

how are we doing this level then

I've been doing two small hops, delayed jump off the first spring, miss the second short and then jump over it, jump off the crest of the downhill, run and jump miss the twig and land on the plateau just before the mound of rocks... don't have a line from there

should I be trying to hit that second spring?

game really needs ~replays~

that's my basic strategy. then run over mound, jump onto and off of boulder, then just run.

what do i know though, i'm fifth (or worse)

i've had hundreds of horrible runs, and one miracle accident run that got me to 18.04. i have no idea how it happened, but i managed to hit the sweet spot on just about every spring (including the second one)

sond's time is unholy

I don't like what this game is doing to us all.

I feel...so...cold

damming I know sond's time is beatable. gotma really slow first section on my ghost

they should release trials ON IPAD

that would destroy my life (if i bought an ipad)

local maxima are a big problem in this game.

I feel like I should be more into this game than I am, but once I have what I consider a respectable score I stop playing. I think the fact that you only have one day to get your score actually prevents me from obsessing too much over it.

Kind of feel like that, except "what I consider a respectable score" is starting to mean "as long as I'm inside the ilx top ten". Really am getting almost zero enjoyment from it though. When I finally manage a half decent run I never think "woah, nailed it", it's always just "well that was a slippery lucky mess".

:) close one!

cozen, were you hitting that second spring? because that sounds like madness to me

another downside is if you get busy, you miss out on all the runs and there's no way to get back in the leaderboards!
Always tomorrow though...

Wow, thirteen person league, huh?

This was cute:
