Nearly stumbling into the room you gain your balance and look around.....

Stage IV

The room is slightly colder than the others, the walls and celling are marked with vents.
Behind you, through the opened door the platform creaks.

.........Then there is a click and then a hissing sound..........

...better hurry

Check the door behind me. (is it closed?) Is there anything else on the wall behind me?

(damn work taking me out of town, I missed whole Stages!!!)

We're being gassed! I hold my breath, and examine the two grey lines on the floor...

Aside from the door, there is a vent.

Correct, shortly the CO2 will form a gaseous cloud and asphixiate you.
The lines are tiny grooves in the floor, that are not much deeper than an eighth of and inch

Strange, if there is a vent beside the door behind us, why isn't it reflected here?

In any case, how big is the vent, and does it look like the cover can be removed?

Hold my breath and try to push on the middle of the front wall, in case I could move it. If it doesn't work I try both sides.

I examine the floor closely.

...the two grey lines on the floor...

Is it just me or is there someone else who can just see a plain white floor?
With absolutely no lines at all...

Is my monitor beslubbered?

I take aa deep breath of fresh air and get to work by reaching into the slit in the floor and pulling trying to get it free.

I try to find a way to relock the axle from the previous room. Also, I breath calmly and feel each vent to see if gas is coming in or out of it.

did we get locked in?

Breath calmly

Examine sign press pull twist it etc.......

Then examine vents like Azore24

Firelord. · « **Reply #173 on:** March 30, 2009, 09:24:34 AM »

I try too push the grey wall, the one with the sticker, sign, whatever.

I also check what this sign really is. Paint? A metal sign? A paper?

I redress, for beeing naked is awkard for everybody.

I just noticed this right now. I think your monitor is beslubbered, LOL.

I examine the grey lines on the floor and determine if they lead under the wall in front of me with the sign or stop at it. If the grey lines top at the wall, I see if I can stomp in the area between the lines. Failing that, I push on that CO2 wall like Starky is doing.

They are there, just nearly impossible to see (I had to zoom in a lot to make them out).

I examine the walls afre they affected by force?

Grimfang · « **Reply #177 on:** March 30, 2009, 11:01:58 PM »

Talon Raven: The Walls are thick and the venting pipes are small

plus I'm trying to give you something on the "fourth wall" lol.

The vent like all the others is carved into the stone of the wall like slits, standing near them you feel light headed and feel cold gas seeping out of them.

Pushing and shoving on the walls yields nothing, each time you shove into them there is no movement and they feel solid and very thick.

Examining the floor you only find the two grooves, which begin a few feet from the door, and end at the bottom of the wall. Shoving, stomping, prying and pulling yield nothing, they are only groves about and 8th of an inch deep (very shallow)

The door to Stage IV stands at least twice your height from the glass platform below, the control mechanism is in the center of the room a number of lengths away. You cannot reach the mechanism by any means, unless you risk a jump.
Note: You CAN reach the control mechanism by risking a jump, however you also risk loosing the game by dying, either breaking your legs on the fall, breaking through the glass platform, missing the bar and tilting the platform allowing you to fall to your death, or some other means which would not allow you to escape. the choice is yours...

You ARE NOT locked in.

Quote from: From General Room Descriptions

The Sign does not remove.
For future reference NONE of the hazard signs are removable or move or have any critical part in escaping, they merely are there.

and there made of metal.

The Grooves in the floor (grey lines) were purposely drawn to be difficult to see, however searching the room would have yielded the discovery of the lines regardless of weather or not you could see them. Some monitors are set to different brightness and resolution than others, so nobody's monitor is messed up.

TIME UNTIL CO2 GAS SUFFOCATES YOU: 3

Trivia: One of the original play testers of this level took 45 Mins to Solve this room, it has since been changed and modified to be more challenging as the game is designed to get harder as the levels progress.

Trivia: Originally the room had no CO2 vents, and had a much simpler solution

Trivia: This room was originally the 2nd room but was shifted for continuity

Rules have been updated

Nothing left in my pockets...
Walls not seeming to move..
I stick a finger (that hopefully fits, so if my sausage index doesn't fit, I try my next smaller, and so forth) into each vent, in turn, from each wall and floor, then run it along the length of it to see if there is any hidden indentations, catches, switches, toggles, etc.

Grimfang · « **Reply #179 on:** March 30, 2009, 11:18:32 PM »

Reaching in with your fingers, you feel the cold gas flowing out of the vents gently,
feeling around as far as you can, searching each and every vent, you start feeling light headed, and dizzy, you search the same vent twice on accident.
There is nothing in the vents but the cold dark walls of metal.

TIME UNTIL CO2 GAS SUFFOCATES YOU: 2.5

I can almost taste the dramma
