DoraThis is the Only Level 3Throw your trunks in the air like you just don't care! Except in this case you do, my little pachyderm enthusiasts, because your favourite little blue buddy is back in the puzzle platformer This is the Only Level 3. Created by jmtb02 with the artistic stylings of JIMP and the Machiavellian designs of Tasselfoot, it's another silly, clever, and maddening assortment of levels to get past... or, rather, just one. That's right, there's really only one level in this game, just like the other installments.

Best of Casual Gameplay 2011Use the [WASD] or [arrow] keys to guide the elephant to the exit pipe on the other side of the screen... provided you can figure out how to get there, of course, since the longer you play the more oddball the playing field becomes. The level title will usually give you a clue as to what you should be doing, but you can expect it to become more and more cryptic as you go. Just remember that you've got other keys on your keyboard, mouse buttons, and a big, beautiful brain that lets you think outside the box. (But can you think inside a chimney?)

You'll definitely need to put your thinking cap on for this one, but you'll also need a little bit of platforming prowess too. While figuring out what the level title is trying to tell you makes up the lion's (or rather elephant's) share of the challenge, there are a few levels where you'll need to be fast on your feet to stay alive. Especially since dying resets any stage progress you've made. Armed with JIMP's gorgeous signature style and some genuinely smart level design by Tasselfoot, the game excels both at making you feel like a real smarty pants for figuring it out, and at the same time like a lummox for taking so long to grasp the solution. Despite the plucky banjo soundtrack, which can slowly drive you to Jack Torrance levels of madness if you don't mute it, This is the Only Level 3 is another great rowdy little game that will confound and frustrate you in all the right ways.

This is an interesting but a bit more frustrating than its predecessors. It also feels a bit odd in comparison. Not a good type of odd IMHO. Maybe it's the doors.

I can't get past Stage 1, Level 22:

How do you get past that bleepity-blank cage trap in front of the pipe?

Reply

P.O.P. goes the weasel. Should've tried the simplest solution:

Mash left & right and bust the cage open through sheer pachyderm violence!

I'm so glad I was by myself this morning when I came to jayisgames. I saw this and let out the loudest, growliest "Yeeeeeeeeeeeeessss!!!".

Seemed easier than the last two. At least I didn't have to edit the registry to re-enable caps lock this time.

where's lvl 6 secret?

May sound stupid, but can't get past stage 7. game wont let me right click anywhere, at least when I do right click it doesnt do anything.

@Jack

The easter egg on level 6 is:

Instead of "friend" type "mellon". That's the Elven word for friend from Lord of the Rings that the level title is a reference to.

Reply

Stage 22 is driving me nuts.

Reply

Guys, I really need help on stage 31: Unidentified. Anybody have a clue what to do?

You reach stage 31 by clicking on the elephant at the title screen a bunch of times.

wildflower12 December 30, 2011 1:49 AM

Oops, I mean level 27. Anyone else stuck on a loading screen?

Reply

i had that problem too, with the highscores not loading. when that happens,just refresh the page. also, make sure that the high scores will load right before you complete stage 30, because you wont be able to submit your time if they dont load. refreshing the page seemed to work for me.

I do what im supposed to on level fifteen and nothing works. HELP!

Reply

to complete level 15 you click to change the colour of the elephant to match the balls. Blue elephant dies touching black dots. Red elephant dies touching white. P.S there is a walk through

Reply

Not getting level 29, the walkthrough doesn't make any sense to me

Reply

Nevermind, just got it. You have to drag the door.

Level 12 does not seem to work for me on my MacBook.

I don't have a numpad on it, so no distinct addition and subtraction buttons. But no matter how much I press the "normal" + or - keys, nothing happens to the gate.

Anon 1029374 January 21, 2012 5:22 PM

Actually it's 3.14159265, not 3.14152965, for stage 25.

Reply

For level 12 on Macbook:

You have to do alt+ "+"-key! Then the door will open

Reply

Is level 16 not working for anyone else? I make a new window, copy the link, and all that happens is that I get a new game. No giant lever or anything.

Reply

Shame, was enjoying that, but on level 27, after

completing the snake game in the high scores screen (and also, on reload, the login screen), there doesn't seem to be a way of getting back to the game. Clicking the x to remove the window doesn't restore focus to the game :(

and unless I've missed something, this renders the game unplayable any further on my machine.

Silverwolf February 3, 2012 11:39 AM

Yup, level 16 doesn't work for me either :( aww..

How do you get the easter egg for level 27?

Reply

I didn't realize until I read through the comments [after beating the game twice] that you can change the color of the elephant on level 15. I just avoided the red dots. D: That would have been so much easier if I'd known.

Reply

Hey! About level 31, THAT LEVEL IS UNBEATABLE. Also I found out that there is a level 31 in This is the only level 1 as well!

Reply

There is an error in the walk through.

On stage 25 it should be

3.14159265 instead of 3.14152965 for pi

[Fixed. -Mod.]

The key to Invisible Mode is the Elvish word for 'Friend' ;)
