Skipping level 8 is for sissies.

Poor nerds :(

I went alone!

Nice interpretation, I think this is the first "go" in this definition that I've come across.

Well done, I had a good chuckle.

Hahahaha.

But yeah, I couldn't figure out level 8. =(

Take Thissa! brilliant.

Awesome! Tremendously funny and some clever level design!
My only gripe is that the game can be very unforgiving when you move between tiles, it has to fit the exact tile, even though it seems that you should be able to move.
I also got stuck in level 8, how do move the nerd to that last dude in the top left corener, goddamit?
So I skipped to level 9, I don't want to say anything, but it's well worth it...

Haha, great idea :)
And a solid puzzle game to boot. I however couldn't solve level 8 (delete doesn't work on earlier levels?).
Well done!

haha, thanks guys.
the collision really is awful - it was the last thing on the list to refine and i just couldn't get it done in time.

level 8 involves only using waiters and jenny to block the dbags, moving the nerd first out to the top left, then getting the meat, then going all the way back around bottom and getting jenny while the waiters block the top row of dbags(getting out of line of sight to right quickly) then proceeding back around to the exit.

i made that level way too hard but figured i'd allow it to be skipped. if i had more time and was more adept with game maker, i'd have made a level select/skip feature.
