I just made a gread discovery (after a wonderful start and awful end in hell) I died from a razor... anyway... The point is that I was with and it was my last life. I was wondering if I could kill the raspberry if it is flying in parts (maybe if I hit the eye?) so I jumped at it to kill it. It didn't die, but went straight through me without killing me!

I made another interesting discovery... I got on the empty level before the strawberries, and when I want in to fight them, they fell before I killed any of them.

Makes me wonder if that's how it works for all boss levels...

Hmm, this new discovery makes it appear that the process is as such:

If the level contains fruits (after you have picked up the fish), then when the letters have stopped appearing, the crystals fall.

And, of course: If the level contains no fruits (after you have picked up the fish), the crystals are saved for the next level.

Since boss levels do not contain letters (or items), the crystals fall immediately. The same is probably true for any level with fruits but no letters/items (e.g. 23.3 and 43.6).

I have just remembered one time when I grabbed a on 55, and the crystals fell immediately upon entering PD55. Therefore, I amend my theory by replacing the word "fruits" with "enemies," where an "enemy" can be either a fruit or spikes.

Another discovery: While CRISTAL makes everything harmful disappear (including fruits, weapons like seeds, and spikes; but for some reason, not saw-blades), any item that makes the fruits disappear does ONLY that. All spikes and weapons stay on-screen.

Or at least most items

for example makes the spikes disappear, and I think that does so too.

Two discoveries about the timing of bombs:

When a saw-blade hits your placed bomb out of its way, the bomb's timer is reset. This works on the same principle as when you kick a Baddybomb. Yesterday, my brother was on level 23.3, and the saw-blades just kept knocking away his bomb, so that it took several seconds longer than usual to explode.

When you "split" an already-placed bomb in two by kicking it with , the clone explodes at the same time as the original. (This is easily proven with black bombs.) The new bomb that is created is essentially just another copy of the same instance, so its timer starts not at zero but at wherever the original left off.

Also, whatever kind of bomb hits the razor, it's reset to the white bomb's timer. For example, you can use this on 54.6 (Pandora's Box) to make your black bombs explode a lot faster.

Did you know that in 2-P mode you can get the fake Candy Cane twice?

I saw video how the guy took it twice, single player mode

I wonder, why is it called "fake" if you can pick it up ?
