It's a small turn for Beauty Goo, but a revolution for Gookind!
The level with too much space-time, and glowing Antigrav-Water-Goo!
- Level design: XDboy
- Graphics: Kyle Gabler, XDboy, Google, NASA
- Music: Cobalt Blue Sphere by PianoForte from newgrounds.com
Thanks to 2D Boy, David Croft, zark92, PianoForte and Elfe!
...the final frontier.
Ever since she was a little Goo Bally, she's dreaming of travelling to the Moon.
Now you have the opportunity to make her dream come true!
May the force of gravity be with you!
- the weightless Sign Painter
Once upon a time, i started a thread at 2D Boy's forum to get help to make this level better. Since then, not much has changed, it's still not perfect. But i finally came around to publish it anyway, since it's -even in the current form- not the lamest level around here. 
Known Bug:
Sometimes the ballbuster (the thing that blasts Beauty to pieces) doesn't work. Try moving Beauty Goo a bit. Most likely it will work when it touches her the next time, then.
There are 6 screenshots.

Really nice and long level with some good ideas. Too bad only the beauty balls are accepted as I didn't use the water goos, but OCD anyway. It just needs quite some patience (whether 18 or 19).

Thanks.
Yes, i'm a traditionalist that way: red pipes are for Beauty Goos only.
I'm aware of the flaws of this level, and also predicted that someone would point out that he could beat it without the antigrav water goo balls.
And I think Pavke can finish it with 0 Moves.
It would be cool if you guys could make youtube videos of those "hardcore player solutions", or other crazy stuff that you can do in this level. I'd put those up here in the videos section.

oh sorry, but no videos from me for a month. My Auto screen recorder trial period has passed. but I'll be reinstalling windows and installing ASR again in 3-4 weeks time and then I'll make you your videos.
oh and I didn't try this level yet... I'll do it now.
EDIT: you can see the videos that I have made so far http://www.youtube.com/user/dmanparttwo

Quote from XDBoy: "And I think Pavke can finish it with 0 Moves"
Well not 0. Can do it in 3 moves but I'm always missing one beauty goo,(when big beauty goo explodes one small goo alway flies to Earth and I'm stuck with 17 out of 18 goos and I have to spend 2 moves to get that lonely small beauty goo at the pipe.) 5 moves total.
So 3 moves can be done. I'll post a screenshot as soon as I got it.
EDIT; I forgot. I'm speechless about the level. Totally awesome. Beautiful music and everything, just some finishing touch needed otherwise.

with 3 moves your skills aren't that scary at all.

how about 2 moves, with OCD?
(now i have an idea what to do with that badge...)
1 move... i know you can push Beauty around like nobody else, but... 1 move... HOW?

2 moves OCD is very hard.. I have to attach ivy to black goo to get 19th beauty and detach, that is 2 moves.... except... ah it's long explanation but it is possible to get that beauty with 0 moves. So 2 moves OCD is very difficult even for me.
As for 1 move regular goal:
1. step: Kick Big Beauty to the Moon. We all know that.
2. step: hmmm... OK. Do you know how real space shuttle is launched? They don't go straight up, more like an elliptic curve. So I did that with that ivy line on Earth. It is very easy. Kick that line to the Moon and to the Galaxy and wake that sleeping goo and detach it. That is your one move. collect all small goos. (some you have to chase all over the galaxy) and put them on that ivy line. Now kick that line from the Moon(elliptic curve), kick it right and now it is "easy" to kick it to the pipe.
It isn't that hard but I always accidentally detach one goo and have to do it all over again.
EDIT: elliptic curve - i mean spiral curve

what is a gorb square? isnt the bueaty too heavy? i dont understand how to beat it.
98% of the teen population believes those "98% of ... if you are one of the 2% who don't copy this into your sig" sigs. copy and paste this into your sig if you are one of the 2% who don't believe them.

If you're not doing it pavke's way (
) you're supposed to use the antigrav-water-goos, and figure out a way to get Beauty up to the moon... and then the parts of her to the pipe.
The gravityfields of Earth, Moon, and the Exitzone are helping you to acomplish the goal. And Pokey. He's very useful, too.
What's a Gorb Square? Did you read the Title texts of the screenshots? (Do you know Star Trek? not that a Gorb Square would have anything to do with it...
)
@Pavke... well yeah, easy...

AGAIN!!!
seriously, though: no, it was mostly inspired by the nonexistent WoG Moon chapter.
and a bit by the GPU level. also science fiction. in general.

This is a _horrible_ level when trying to minimize moves (0) over and over and over again. o_O

So much has been said. I love the level.
It is a minor detail,but I love the glow of the Goos, the little stars in their wake. It would be a great mod to add these little effects in an effect mod. Shame I have so little time for this... anyone?
Thanks for superb level design.

@thB
if you have a screenshot or a video to post, let me know^^
also: Zero Moves? Still madness!
@OxymoronicPlant
Thank you!
An effect mod? hmmm... as in, just a collection of effects? or do you have something more complex in mind?
since "anyone?" means "davidc" most of the time around here...
@davidc
...how about an easy-to-use effects editor included in GooTool?

I wish I could solve this level
@XDboy ... Hmm that's pretty complicated. I remember the OGRE particle effect editor. I'm not sure I want to get into actually simulating graphics, because then I'd have to add proper graphic rendering (albeit 2D), and without the source of WoG itself it'd surely be "my best guess" and possibly far-off actual game rendition.
Mon, 08/03/2009 - 12:12
i know, it wasn't a serious question anyway.
hm, i guess if you can't solve it, i should've really put in more clues.
SPOILER:
Build a cage around Beauty Goo.
Make it reach the sleeping antigravity water Goo Balls.
Remember what water goo was good for.
Act on that and you should be able to (nearly) reach the Moon.
Ah crap. the Moon Gravity doesn't work in your favor, now.
Pokey wants to help.
Isn't it neat that the Moon is rotating?
Yay, you're on the Moon.
Don't let the Antigrav. Goos fly away.
Above the Moon, reach for the galaxy above Star Sign Beauty.
You should now be able to let her explode.
Leave most of the Ivy Goos behind.
Use the Antigrav. Goos to let the Beauty Goo Parts escape the Moon Gravity.
You can let them fall back to Earth, or try to fly directly to the pipe.
Ivy Goo Balls or Pokey are your motor
near the pipe is a strand of "Dark Matter Goo" you can hold on that if you need to.
Oh noes! The Gorb Square is blocking the exit.
I hope you remember the opening montage.
Crash!
Now you can somehow build to the pipe...
If you want OCD, build/fly to the lonely Beauty Goo part on the other black strand.
Congratulations.

You did it!

At last I solved the
Borg cubeGorb Square! I too appreciate the antigrav ghost tracks. Nice level.Imagination is more important than knowledge - Einstein
Thu, 09/17/2009 - 10:53
I almost felt really smart there, solving most of the level without reading your spoilers.
almost.
Anyway, I couldn't figure out how to get that asteroid thingee moving around. I tried Pavke-method (whack, whack, whack) but that didn't get anywhere (I've never been good at that), and I couldn't build it upward like a Beauty goo. I attatched the Pokey to it and sat there for a few minutes, confused. What am I supposed to do?

Use Pokey to whack, whack the asteroid to the Cube. The Pokey is by far the strongest goo.
My Gooish profile | Videos on YouTube | My WOG Mods
Mon, 09/21/2009 - 12:11
Yeah, I finally figured that out. Whew! a little tricky of a level, but boatloads of fun.
On an interesting side note, if you attatch Pokey to the asteroid, the physics simulations go haywire. It's pretty fun to watch...

the physics go so haywire that once a goo went though the asteroid

This level crashes my World of Goo in linux. Anyone else on linux able to play this level?
Tue, 07/06/2010 - 16:00
Well, I’m on Ubuntu 10.04 and this level works perfectly well !
Are you using the amd64 or the i386 version of World of Goo ?
It’s a very beautiful level by the way.
But I haven’t yet succeed this level...
I’m not Pavke !

I think OCD is not much harder than basic solving (Basic solving is very hard!). After many attepts I got 19 balls in 429 moves! It was the only time I have finnished this level.
It was some time ago, but I think I should post here:
It's the most beautiful level in WoG! And one of the most advenced addins ever...

Should have mentioned before, but I'm using the 64-bit version. Also using an nvidia card which may or may not be a problem.
Currently using Kubuntu 10.10, but have also tried under 10.04 ubuntu/kubuntu (all 64-bit). Tried disabling the composing (compiz/kde 3d effects) also but still crashed.
May boot up a 32-bit version of ubuntu live cd and try from there. I'm sure that would work.

It probably isn't your computers fault, the problem is in addin. It uses backslash "\" in levels xmls, with is only recognized in Windows.
Instead it should use forward slash "/" for windows and linux as well...
You could change it yourself or you could wait for some of us to do it...

I'm sorry, I just assumed that it was the backslash problem.
When someone with a different system then win is complaining on one level is 97% of the cases it's the backslash problem

Mind if I borrow these for my next mod? It's called "Night Sky" and changes the backgrounds to night and the images to darker ones. It would be cool if all of the balls had these effects as well!

AP:
Actually, please don't go too overboard on the particle effects!
I have a pretty lame graphics card, as do others on this forum, and it really bogs down in levels with tons of particles. ("Thank you for smoking" from TFR, for example)
XDboy's level here runs fine, and most other levels run fine, but PLEASE don't overwhelm a level with zillions of particle effects, or tons of types of balls with particle effects on each. Particle effects really should be used sparingly, for especially cool stuff (like these antigravity balls). Thanks.

The idea is to add the sparkles from this level to the original balls, as well as other stuff. How about a special download that does everything BUT the particles, for older systems?

AP: No, the problem is not an "older system", just a lame graphics card. (Windows Vista is not "old", at least not yet)
Also, my Windows 7 has a good graphics card, and it also bogs down a bit in a level I made with too many Pilot-like goos in it (I'll have to edit the goos a bit).
If you add particle effects to balls for their "falling" state, I have no problem with that, just please don't go overboard on particle effects on balls while attached, walking on strands, etc.
If you put a lot of always-active particle systems on the common balls, and fire up the TowerOfGoo level, I think you'll see what I mean. I doubt any graphics card can stand too many particles.
And, as I think I said before, this level (FHTTM) that XDboy made runs perfectly fine on both my computers. Just please don't go too overboard with particle effects, or else they won't be as impressive when you use them.
Thanks.
