Some Help with N

Post by Dr. Watson »

I've been playing N for several months now, unlocked a couple of flavor-thingie, etc.

I have come to level 35.3. And I have no idea how to beat it. :(

There's the level and my route that I take. The end of the red line is the extent I get to before the whopping 3 seconds runs out. :x Is there something I'm not seeing? I've played it a gazillion times and see no possible way to get to the top without some sort of time extension. Any N masters out there? ](*,)

Well on levels 0,1, and 2 you have to get more time. Your problem is that you don't get time on the previous levels. The time from your previous level carries over into your next level. That's your problem. Because the next level 35.4 is going to have .01 seconds.

I know, I was having trouble on like 27.4 because I had .5 seconds when I started and then I figured it out! \:D/

Btw: I need help on episode 29.3 I can't get past those 6 rockets....

Did you look at the high scores for that level? I usually find them the most effective way of learning how to beat any stage.

Then again, I've only gotten to episode 19 in all the three weeks I've played it so I might not be the best source of advice. :-#

Yeah, what he said. Just start the episode over and get more time.

And I'm bragging now, but I just got a new computer so I had to start N over; took 8 days to beat this time instead of 6 months \:D/

Thanks everyone, that advice worked perfectly. I finished it with no problem. Now I feel kind of dumb... #-o
