The music really adds to the overall effect of feeling like I'm slowly going insane as I sit in my living room with the lights off directing a crudely-drawn elephant towards a button and a pipe opening over and over and over again.comment:www.metafilter.com,2010:site.89308-2955878Wed, 17 Feb 2010 23:24:36 -0800ORtheyBy: Nomiconic

Nomiconic, for level 23, think about the title of the level, and the way you can cause the last third of of that title to come true for you (since two already are).comment:www.metafilter.com,2010:site.89308-2955898Wed, 17 Feb 2010 23:57:57 -0800barnaclesBy: Captain Cardanthian!

Huh. Perusing the creator's profile on the Armor Games website shows two more elephant-related games, <a href="http://armorgames.com/play/1719/elephant-rav">elephant rave</a> and <a href="http://armorgames.com/play/3102/run-elephant-run">run elephant run</a>. If I had seen them before I made the post I would've included them, as well. Elephant rave in particular is quite fun.comment:www.metafilter.com,2010:site.89308-2955905Thu, 18 Feb 2010 00:14:04 -0800Captain Cardanthian!By: bicyclefish

Took me about 26 minutes, although a good amount of that was level 15, which I was reluctant to do the thing needed to finish it as a matter of principle.
The elephant from the title screen can be moved around. This is part of the solution of one of the puzzles, but also, if you go to the bottom right corner of the title screen and then jump behind the instruction card and hang left, there is a portal to a secret level. I have no idea how to solve that one though.comment:www.metafilter.com,2010:site.89308-2955963Thu, 18 Feb 2010 03:46:08 -0800JHarrisBy: elizardbits

<i>Pac Man has multiple maze layouts, and the gameplay in both Frogger and Pacman is always essentially the same.</i>
False. Aside from Pac-Man not having multiple mazes, Frogger requires sharp timing and an ability to finding spots where multiple timed sequences line up, while Pac-Man requires maneuvering to escape pursuers, an ability to see where the monsters will go in reaction to your movements, and ultimately, the memorization of patterns.comment:www.metafilter.com,2010:site.89308-2956722Thu, 18 Feb 2010 11:55:48 -0800JHarrisBy: caution live frogs

<em>False.</em>
You misunderstood me. I meant that the gameplay in each game does not vary much from level to level, not that the gameplay in Frogger is the same as the gameplay in Pac-Man.comment:www.metafilter.com,2010:site.89308-2956806Thu, 18 Feb 2010 12:17:19 -0800jedicusBy: prefpara

"Yes. Something that interested us yesterday when we saw it." "Where is she?" His lodgings were situated at the lower end of the town. The accommodation consisted[Pg 64] of a small bedroom, which he shared with a fellow clerk, and a place at table with the other inmates of the house. The street was very dirty, and Mrs. Flack's house alone presented some sign of decency and respectability. It was a two-storied red brick cottage. There was no front garden, and you entered directly into a living room through a door, upon which a brass plate was fixed that bore the following announcement:¡ª The woman by her side was slowly recovering herself. A minute later and she was her cold calm self again. As a rule, ornament should never be carried further than graceful proportions; the arrangement of framing should follow as nearly as possible the lines of strain. Extraneous decoration, such as detached filagree work of iron, or painting in colours, is [159] so repulsive to the taste of the true engineer and mechanic that it is unnecessary to speak against it. Dear Daddy, Schopenhauer for tomorrow. The professor doesn't seem to realize Down the middle of the Ganges a white bundle is being borne, and on it a crow pecking the body of a child wrapped in its winding-sheet. 53 The attention of the public was now again drawn to those unnatural feuds which disturbed the Royal Family. The exhibition of domestic discord and hatred in the House of Hanover had, from its first ascension of the throne, been most odious and revolting. The quarrels of the king and his son, like those of the first two Georges, had begun in Hanover, and had been imported along with them only to assume greater malignancy in foreign and richer soil. The Prince of Wales, whilst still in Germany, had formed a strong attachment to the Princess Royal of Prussia. George forbade the connection. The prince was instantly summoned to England, where he duly arrived in 1728. "But they've been arrested without due process of law. They've been arrested in violation of the Constitution and laws of the State of Indiana, which provide¡ª" "I know of Marvor and will take you to him. It is not far to where he stays." Reuben did not go to the Fair that autumn¡ªthere being no reason why he should and several why he shouldn't. He went instead to see Richard, who was down for a week's rest after a tiring case. Reuben thought a dignified aloofness the best attitude to maintain towards his son¡ªthere was no need for them to be on bad terms, but he did not want anyone to imagine that he approved of Richard or thought his success worth while. Richard, for his part, felt kindly disposed towards his father, and a little sorry for him in his isolation. He invited him to dinner once or twice, and, realising his picturesqueness, was not ashamed to show him to his friends. Stephen Holgrave ascended the marble steps, and proceeded on till he stood at the baron's feet.
