TR Forge Advent Calendar 2009 - A Special Tutorial Level
Level by Soul
Walkthrough by Yoav
Go through the triangular opening, a few steps forward and jump from the right
side of the column pink. Next, stand with face SW, run and jump bypassing the
column, you should grab the ledge underneath, then make a monkey swing. Climb
the green wall until the upper ledge and follow it west and climb the flat
ledge. Stand position NE to the column pink and take a standing jump. Pull the
switch to raise two trapdoors and return back to the green ledge.
Go west again and jump from the corner over toward a south trapdoor. Down to a
crawl to the column pink SE and make a perfect crawling. Pull the switch to
open a tall trapdoor and return back to the green ledge. Keep climbing the
green wall, once on a ledge, stand close to the green pillar with face SE. Jump
up with right arrow press/hold, release jumping when half body stuck in the
pillar and find yourself on pillar top.
Reach the next pillar when facing the north wall and closer to corner. Turn NW,
crawl once, release and voila! find yourself on the top (with little patience
from you, it will work perfectly). From where you are standing take angled jump
to grab the upper ledge. Jump into a small pool and surface when facing the
west pillar wall and closer to NW corner. By pressing jump you are teleported
directly to the pillar top (when you're on the top pillar, press 'roll' to
avoid falling back to the pool).
Jump and hold the SW rope and swinging three times, when reaching the highest
point and swinging back jump off over toward the next rope. Locate the next
rope, when facing it turn a little bit left. Swinging and jump off when
reaching the highest point, hold the next rope and once again swinging and
jumping this time over toward the red square. A short flyby will show you three
purple squares to reach.
Right above Lara's head there is a rope. Facing the far south purple square,
jump up and press Ctrl with Backwards arrow as soon as Lara grasps the rope and
release. This will send Lara in high speed to the square and she will be
returned back immediately. Reaching the far west square will be more attractive
and worth it to try. When it's done, repeat action to reach the ledge above
(hold Ctrl little longer).
Once it's done, go toward a lake with several pink blocks, jump to the south
block and save. Facing west, hold shift, one step forward, release and press
jump to land on the next block, then reach the next block in the same way. Go
to the NW edge, then step back, take a running jump over toward the far block
(keep holding jump with forward arrow) land without grabbing (press 'roll' to
avoid falling). Next jump is more challenging. Go to the SW edge and step back,
take a running jump towards the highest point of the next sloped block (keep
holding forward) and Lara will hit the slope and reach the next block.
Jump to the south floating slope by jumping the next two slopes and grab the
red ledge. Shimmy left until the end and fall down onto a slope. Read the title
on your screen to make the headspring jump model (run/jump with jump and shift
pressing together). Lara will land in front of a green block without any
damage. Climb the block and take an angled running jump, grab the NE floating
ledge and pull up. As the title instructor, you have to make the next jump
perfectly. Go and stand at the west edge and take two steps forward, now run
and make headspring jumping one step before the edge, you should survive this
hard jumping without any damage.
Climb the green block to collect flares and drop east. Pull the switch and get
brief flyby of track you have to make by timed running. Run and jump toward the
NW lower steps, continue and climb up higher, slide and roll, hop back and drop
without grabbing the edge to land into a tunnel. Crawl into a crawlspace and
drop into another tunnel, run down, slide and jump forward to land on the
beginning ledge. Turn west and you see two electric islands you have to choose
from. When green is Try Timerun Again or red with Finish trigger.
