I want to express my gratitude to all members of developers Pasta Games for excellent fun game, which gave a lot of positive emotions and gave a desire to write this modest guide.

This is my first manual in Steam, of course, is not without drawbacks. If you notice any error / inaccuracy ... or want to offer something new - please write in comments of guide, or send me a private message in the my user's profile.

I would also like to apologize for not too correct translation of the English version. Goggle Translate helped as best he could, but he was not much smarter than me: D

If you want to thank me for the work and also stimulate to further guides, here's my list of e-wallets:

louismax1 , although I have 100+ hours of this game , I do not consider myself a fan of pix arcade. Sometimes I had a lot of time to replay the same grid to succeed. So I would give only 3 small recommendations:
1. A good controller. This does not necessarily xbox360 gamepad (which, incidentally, found a problem with the response). The main thing that has been hard touch on pressing direction buttons.
2. Always look for new ways to pass grid faster and remember the sequence.
3. If you still have problems, try to watch walkthrough of other players. Some videos are already in this guide, other can be found on youtube.
Good luck with pix arcade! :pixegg: :pixduckling:
louismax1 3 Jul, 2015 @ 12:19pm 
Any recommendations for doing well on the arcade?
louismax1 3 Jul, 2015 @ 11:23am 
Oops sorry I looked at the wrong thing. Thanks!
Abionix  [author] 2 Jul, 2015 @ 10:57pm 
louismax1 , a sequence of 22 moves of Jailbreak 9 is written correctly, i checked it again. Perhaps you were not very attentive. However, if you have a combination of moves is less than 22, I'll be happy add it to this guide :pix:
louismax1 2 Jul, 2015 @ 3:15pm 
I think Jailbreak 9 is wrong as well

Lo-fi Longcat , thanks for help. Level Jailbreak 7 now corrected. I do not play this game for a long time, but if you find another errors in this guide, i will find time to check them and correct :pix:
