you are right, however on my first attempt at him I lost all but three lives because at first i kept jumping to the right. You can in fact get onto that platform first if you put your mind to it, but it doesn't work, because he never runs out of fireballs. Eventually i found i was jumping in the wrong direction.Careful (because i'm low on lives) TOTPD [This message has been edited by Cube_166 (edited 08-06-2003).]

I dont think i'll need any help for the rest of the game even though i missed some of the nibblers on bender & leela's levels (damn, i like those cutscenes)My verdict on the game: 8/10, its a good game but it can get frustrating sometimes (like on dr. zoidbergs level, i messed up about 10 times on it when i was doing well)
I'd still play the game again after completing it cause A) i need to get all the nibblers for the cutscenes & music
B) the game is funny
C) its Futurama!! im a fan!  ------------------

How does the game work? Do you have certain amount of lives? When you die do you go back to the start of the level or what? And what happens when you lose all your lives? Game over, back to the start? Or can you save your game whenever you want?

I got up to Leela and she is very hard to control but unfortunately I have to take the game back from blockbusters. I don't want to rent again, and was hoping to get it for my birthday along with PlayStation 2 next month.------------------

You have a set number of lives, and can get more by collecting your character's pick-up. When you die, you go back to the last checkpoint. If you lose all your lives, it's game over, obviously. Did you expect anything else?  You can only save the game at the end of each level.

the pillars are really hard any advice? also the rock creatures on Benders level are really easy. Just press A and then do it twice more. Their pretty easy. Are the exploding heads on Leelas level possible to get away from?

Yes davids.And SwanMan3000, the trick is just to learn the route, though at one point you have to jump sort of the "wrong" way to land on a pillar that is obscured slightly. I think if you jump on the first pillar to start the puzzle you can wait a while for the later pillar next to it to drop down to a height where you can jump on it, thereby missing out most of the puzzle.

Hey Bobby do you get anything special for all the nibblers? like an alternate ending or anything. If you don't then I don't think I'll bother.

Call me horrible, but I find the sewer level hard, even though I have realized you get better with practice and i've only played for 5 minutes. The cut scenes are great- they're funny! The animation is smooth, and the voices are perfect. I can already tell a ton of work was put into this. And the best part so far...the music! i LOVE the music! it's so awesome! greatest original music for a video game ever! excellent, excellent. must play more but i don't want to spend all my time playing- must...go...outside!

Some parts of the sewer are hard. There are pretty much a few bits like that within levels all the way through the game, except Bender's levels which really are pretty easy but great fun.And yes, you can tell that UDS really did their homework and took all of Matt and Co's thoughts on board. It's like a labour of love. [This message has been edited by Kazzahdrane (edited 08-17-2003).]

How? His shield blows off and hurts you. I haven't found a way to avoid that.

When you pick up the blue gem, stay on the pedestal you take it from until the shield has passed you, it shouldn't harm you if you do that.

You need all the nibblers to unlock all the video cutscenes and small scenes so that you can watch the full episode stright thru at the end. I restarted as I did 7 levels and only unlocked 1 vid after the first 3 they give you. NOw I got them all they are now unlocking.

I find any game where I have to aim and shoot a gun hard. It's not the type of game I like, but I do like hand to hand combat. When I got to the sewer level I freaked out and I'm just hoping to get to Leela & Bender's levels soon.

Yeah, aiming is really easy when you can just hold down R1. There are only two points in the game where first person view is required.

Nope, one is in the sewers, and one is on the last level. Maybe there's another on the last level that I've forgotten though.
