Hey Lori, The robot won't stay out of your way. He, or perhaps she (I guess that'd make her a robette?) is pretty determined to catch you, so it's up to you to avoid that happening. The higher the level, the faster the robot comes after you.
Do the strange tones you're hearing come a few coins before you level up, as you're collecting up the last few coins on the grid? If they do, it's because earlier in that level you collected a bonus object which allows you to finish the level with a set number of coins still left by pressing space after you hear one of those tones. It's been a while since I played so I forget the exact name of the bonus object that makes this happen, but what I do remember is that if you choose to press space and finish the level early, you miss out on some of the standard bonuses. It's only really a good idea to level up early if you're having a really fast run through and think you can get one of the time bonuses by doing so. Bombs tick, so skirt around them, and wherever possible try to be where they're not. Sounds easy enough, but factor in the robot chasing you and it makes for some pretty wiggly movement until the bombs are all exploded. Hth, I found the game to be seriously addictive considering there was nothing to kill lol Scott On 10/31/10, Clement Chou <chou.clem...@gmail.com> wrote: > When you pick up coins you get a tone.
