The (un)official Goo records threadtfk10/16/2008 - 14:37

News:
Ok, so Marius set the standards, let's see whether someone can beat him at something! Worlds 1 & 2 are updated, so look where no record was set yet for an easy entry or try better him somewhere!


Of course, there is this thread, but it's all a little bit mixed up there!
So here is an attempt to sum up all the records, I'll try to update it regularly and improve it if necessary (for example, add new sections)
It's under development, while you are reading this I may already have updated it!
If you have any suggestions, post them!
If you think you have a new record, post a picture of it and maybe state which level and what exactly is the record!
And, of course, if there's something else, just post a post  ;)

I think you forgot the deliverance level (after MOM's computer).

@ Marius: Yep, got it... I'll send them to you later today, am busy right now...

@ Yep, forgot it... it's so offside i didn't notice it when print-screening the level names  ;D but busy right now, i will add it later.

Got 18 goo's (and OCD) on "Infesty the worm" in Epilogue

Re: The (un)official Goo records threadlukipuk10/18/2008 - 15:06

so this is my current records on the end of the world
infesty: 18 (OCD)
weahter vane: 45 (OCD)
its far from optimum though...

Re: The (un)official Goo records threadmiloserus10/18/2008 - 15:13

I believe 18 is the optimal in "Infesty the Worm" at least.
If I didn't occur some unnotized gooey suesides. Sure those goo's love to jump off the cliff.

Re: The (un)official Goo records threadMarius10/18/2008 - 16:23

My Weather Vane is 49 (Not optimized) (Actually haven't put much effort in)
Horizontal Transportation Innovation Committee, on the other hand, I did put (some) effort in. 51 Gooballs.

Re: The (un)official Goo records threadThe0ldMan10/18/2008 - 19:27

I'm probably not the first to do this but the other day I got every goo ball available on Welcoming Unit (the one with the big chain and the freedom scraper 3000)  Its pretty easy actually.

Re: The (un)official Goo records threadRyunosuke10/20/2008 - 16:31

*shrug* True enough. But I don't mind, because I don't think anyone's gonna beat this one:


Also - Flying Machine in 2 moves:

I'd like to think that this is the lowest possible number of moves, but now that you've beaten Red Carpet in 0 moves, I don't know what to believe anymore...
