Hi
I wondered, why you got stuck there and I replayed the level and what happened? There was no key there. So I played it over and over and I have one solution. After jumping on the blue switch you have to be really fast with the teleport and jump down the stairs (rather than walk down) - Could be that. There is one other way to get the key, which also seems to work, use only the first green switch, get to the blue switch, jump down the stairs again go back all the way to kill the remaining hedgehogs. Anyway, I am not sure what the solution is, but that's, how it works. Greets

I had this problem. I think it's game problem. You just need to fall fast when you closing the key, but not yet see it because game acts only with object in some range around pekka, so hedgehog that are far enough from you are frozen. So is the key. If you got switch in range but not key switch will go up without key and when you fall one step more key will just fall because it has nothing under it. But if you fall fast switch will go up with key and key will not fall down. Maybe some aspects is wrong but idea is right. Just try to reach key fast

Yes, Centurion is right. Only sprites that are one screen left, right, up or down are active. What one screen means depend on the resolution. In retrospec I think I should have made the active area static, since now the levels behave differently with different resolutions.
Having all the sprites active all the time would slow down the game quite a bit.

Isn't it will better to make just option so when i press button game will check how this button operate with environment and if there is something on switch it will also add to process queue this item, not all items in level.
By the way some little programming mistakes are good soil to grow some triky things. I used some of them in my episode.
