Chapter 1 walkthroughShinigami04/17/2008 - 15:36

Hi Goo-lovers (and the rest of you :) )
I have a proposal. Why don't we make a "perfect walkthrough of chapter 1? Can be posted as pictures showing completed levels or videos, pictures, explanations ect.
I have collected 193(right?) goo balls so far but I know its far from the limit (seen 203).
So I want to re-complete all levels and get the most I can get from it. But there is no "top score" other than my own so I don't know where I missed some balls.

I'd also LOVE to see some goo Tower designs, since my towers just keep falling apart when I run out of goos and try to take out a few (they either fall on the side or inside).

Pics, anyone?

Ok I made 12 videos that show how to complete chapter 1. Using shown walkthroughs you can get 200 goo balls (but I have 202 hehe).
Videos can be found here:

Sharing is caring  :)

ps: now contains all 12 levels.

Hm...it's a pretty good start, but I'd've liked it more if you'd've shown the actual /process/ of beating the levels. Still, thanks!

Okie, I'll add few more videos later, including (but not limited to) Ode to Bridge Builder.

These are cool, thanks! If you know how to set any records on the levels, please share. I'm particularly stuck on level 3 (Hang Low?). The records set on the leaderboard seem to be 6 moves and 22 balls. I can't get near that, it takes 3 moves just to get down to the sleepers. Help!?

Did you know: If you throw a gooball at a sleeping gooball, the sleeping gooball moves? ;) The harder you throw them, the more the sleeping ones move as well!

Re: Chapter 1 walkthroughJohnsinski05/31/2008 - 17:25

Thanks for the tip. I must be slow (or maybe it's my computer). I can't get them to bounce very high  :( . I think I got a couple of them up doing it that way but it's taking me forever! :o

I just noticed you competely Fisty's Bog without balloons! WOW! I can barely do it WITH Balloons. Dang.

By the way, where can I find the leaderboard?

Thanks! I'm afraid the videos posted show how to reach some of those records (same result from lots of users), and as soon as I post how to beat them, you'll see the exactly same number later in large quantity. But if I beat any, I'll surely post a video :)
And then maybe someone shows how to reach world's 100th highest tower ;D

Guys... How many balls are there in the game in total? In the first chapter preview that we play. 295?
