YAY! (he comes out of the woodwork just for these special occasions)
Hello folks!

[nin_man]

Howdy.

So, secrets. The game itself is pretty easy (I managed to finish without a walkthrough, so it may actually be designed for children), but those secrets are proving elusive. I've found a whopping two.

One is in the second world, upper level, all the way to the left, sort of in the background. It's a little green speck, instead of the little red specks that were secrets in the last game.

and

Take the hammer to the hidden underground room in world 3, the one you can't get to from within world 3. It's got a small domed statue in the middle and roots coming down from the ceiling. That one. Anyway, hit the dome with the hammer and you'll get the second secret.

Anyone found any others?

YAY!!! A new Submachine!!!

OMG!!! I rarely play games nowadays but this is one of them!

I am on it in about a hour.

You don't need a hammer for that second one.


edit: I got a bug in level 6. I can't put one of the beamer arms back into my inventory and now it's stuck on my cursor and I can't do anything. Restarting tomorrow.

Weird, I couldn't get it until I had the hammer. Either way, I think we can agree that hitting everything with a hammer is way more fun than not hitting everything with a hammer.

Anybody else get the HD version? Now I'm mad that all the other Submachines weren't full-screen.

Didn't find the hammer, got to all 7 levels, though.

Finally finished, with help from Sarah Brown at EG24. Never found all the secrets or the hammer, though.

Hammer:

When you find the valve in the lower-right-most screen on level 7, come all the way back to the left and use the valve on the post with the triangular button. Go back to level 1, climb up the rope, then back to level 7, then a screen to the right and that yellow box has an opened panel that contains the hammer.

Which is a lot of work for an item you don't even need to finish the game.

Thanks, Nin_Man. I finally got the hammer. I also found all 5 secrets, thanks to Bronte Cakes at EG24.

Secrets

1 click on the floor tile just left of the round circle thingy on level 3
2 after you have placed the little cog on level 3 go back to level 1 go right, move the long lever across further to the right, then go back to where you placed the little cog and the secret will be there.
3 when you get the hammer go to the secret room with the red dome and smash it for another secret.
4 on level 5 smash the cat with the hammer, place the stone pin in the plinth, use the glowing orb to light up the letters in the plinth, then push the button for the secret.
5 on level 6 where you picked up the button for the NSEW puzzle in level 2 there are 2 flat discs to the right, smash them and find the final secret.

I hope this helps. (and makes sense)

I have a cog! Been ages since one of these games and I had a rough time getting started due to forgetting how he plans his games.
Not sure how you all are couting levels.
4 white lights on control, 2 secrets, and a wire/metal arc (piece of a circle?) - need knob for drawer.

We count them on the head piece you get. The first place you are is level one, and it goes from L->R (the buttons on the left side are odd #s, and the ones on the right side are even. I hope this helps.
