Interesting... (Parallel Pandemonium)
DD0 is beatable without problems...
well... at least theoretically

DD1 is a fusion of level 98 and PD0: Very hard to kill the fruits there and a lot of fruits... Impossible to survive without losing a life (but you wanted to make it difficult )

DD2... Interesting, evil... But possible to solve^^

DD3: Funny... A really hard jump o_O

DD4: How do you kill the pineapples? The rest of the level is quite cool, especially if the raspberry comes to your place and gets killed by the spikes But I think the pineapples are impossible to hit even with the red bombs, because the bombs are too weak to kick the pineapples out through the wall.

DD5: You had to do that

DD4: just before the explosion, kick the bomb.

Why are all razors upside-down?
About DD1 - fruits 3/6/7/8/9/10/11 are going to die by themselves. What's the deal here?
DD2 - the same with all three fruits.
DD3 - ......................
DD4 is impossible to beat.

So PD rate - 2 from 10.

DD1: electriczax is right

DD2: No. They don't find a "landing place" below them, so they have to stay on the 1x1 squares and don't die.

DD4: You could place a blue bomb changer where the "2" for the second fruit is, between the two ledges there... Would make it beatable

I will close my eyes and act like you haven't got the and you are not in HoF, thus I will explain.

When a fruit is on 1x1 square it can do only 2 things - jump if there is a place to jump at (lvl 47) or fall (all other levels with 1x1 squares (the last level in PD13 is a good example for suicidal apple and it also may happen at lvl 33). They don't think. The lemons at the bottom can't say "oh, there are spikes, I won't go that way", they will simply go there and die.

GAH! Shows how much I know... I could have sworn the enemies avoided spikes cause I never saw a enemy fall into a spike before. And how is Level 4 impossible? You dodge and wait for the Leapers to kill them selfs the then you kill the raspberry and use Red bombs to kill the Pineapples? How will that not work?

The Razors are faced down because I couldn't tell the difference if they're faced up or not...I made those Levels thinking the enemies will avoid the spikes.

Level 4 might be impossible because you can't kill the pineapples. To hit them, you need to explode a red bomb next to a wall, but that might not be close enough to get the pineapple out of its square. Pineapples are heavier than other enemies, which means that bombs don't push them as far as other enemies (and they fall to the bottom of the screen faster as well meaning they will die before other enemies killed by the same blue bomb, potentially making the order harder to get). I can't recall ever seeing red bombs and pineapples in the same level, so I'm not sure it's actually impossible, but it probably requires luck.

About assuming enemies don't walk into spikes, it is a reasonable assumption, but there are a couple of levels in the game where some enemies regularly kill themselves on spikes quickly. I don't know why though, I would have thought that would be noticed while testing the levels. It doesn't seem intended.

Sorry for double posting, but I wanted to comment on what electriczax said, and forgot. I'm not sure that you are right about that. Yes, when enemies stop on a 1 square platform they sometimes move off it onto a platform below. But if there isn't a platform to go on, I don't think they will move off. I have seen a lemon stop on the rightmost square on level 44 and it stays there until I throw a bomb at it.

electriczax: pigletto is right.
Enemies don't "see" spikes, so they just run into them (level 33). But they do see the void below them. They only go down from 1x1 squares when there is a ledge below (when it contains spikes, they use it though; that's right). Of course, fruits that can jump from places that are not 1x1 don't jump into the void either

Okay, so half of those things are true . All the fruits at DD1 are still dying.

And you have to blow a bomb in the pineapples to get them out of there. It won't work through the wall. That's why it's impossible.
