    Level 3.8 of The Misadventures of P.B. Winterbottom...  
     
    I've been at it for about 2 hours. Anyone have a solution for it?

    This one stumped me for a bit before I finally got. This level really (really) makes you use your head. I won't give it away completely, but it requires a loop in which you start by moving your recording through 3, then the others, then instant repeat. If this is a sign of things to come, this game will be impossible by the last level.

    Looks like I have to approach it from another angle. I had come up with some extremely overly detailed plan that I don't think I could even begin to describe.  
     
    Thanks for the help.  
     
    Nice icon, btw. Can't wait to see what happens with Raiden.  
     
    EDIT: Totally just got it. lol. Thanks again for the help. I waaaaaaaaay fuckin overcomplicated that one.

    If you figure out 3.9, drop some hints. I got stuck :(
     
    It didn't seem like it was gonna be that difficult, but the time restraints are killing me.

    If you haven't gotten it yet, it's weird. You approach the numbers in chronological order (not like 3.8 where you start the loop at #3). Then it's a matter using the see-saw to your advantage in tandem with good timing.

    That's what I was doing. I definitely just couldn't get the timing to work to my advantage, so I will I have to give it another go. Thanks!

    Just beat the game. In my opinion, there are only about 2 other levels up to the difficulty level of 3.8 and 3.9.

    Dammit I want to play this game... seeing threads like these, reminds me of Braid lol.  I enjoyed getting stuck on a level, and keeping at it, until "OOOH, I see what I need to do"... I love a good puzzle.

    @jtparsons54 I feel the same way. In it's entirety, there were only about 4 o5 5 that I REALLY got stuck on.  
     
    @Doubleshock It's not quite up to Braid's level of enjoyment, but it's still definitely a competent game that was worth about $10
