Hawka, use control with the space bar.

Bets

OK thank you, will try that.

Using my game pad, it's space bar with left click as Bets says.

Easy to forget when you haven't played in a while.

Okay, how did you kill the Ninions on the other side of the gate?

First, use that Waters of Vigor to keep your health bubbles purple as long as possible. If I remember correctly, I used Sting and the jump attacks on the really big creepy thing. I'll have to play it again, but I think once you kill him the other ones quit spawning.

Wow, I'm gonna need all the help I can get.

It's a humdinger of a battle, that's for sure. The health mushrooms respawn, but they're awfully slow. Sometimes I just keep running around trying to dodge the shots coming at me until they pop up again. I can usually get the big thing down to half his health bar or less before the Waters of Vigor run out. You can always take out some of the blue guys to get more colored crystals for points. Let me know if you need a save!

Okay, I'll try again.

Edit: Not having good luck at all.

I think I need a saved game.

CYE!

Thanks Drac

Bets

Yeah, thanks Drac. Will try them tomorrow.

L4L, are you playing this?

No not right now--but I'm glad that as always our members provided the help I couldn't

Got the big spider.

Good! So that must have been the correct save I sent. That's one spider down and 2 more to go if you're where the dwarves are trussed up...

EEEEEK more spiders. It looks like they multiply, the bigger ones, that is. The save is by Balens belt.

Ohhhh..... So you haven't gotten to the REALLY big spiders, just the sort of big spiders...

Ooooo, you are evil. Tell me the best way to fight these devils.

When you get there, you'll know to stay up high as long as you can!

So how is the best way to fight the sorta big spiders?

If you're talking about all the spiders that come after you in droves, I used Sting and the jump attack. The staff doesn't do too bad either when you swing it around. My favorite if you can get up high is to pelt them with rocks.

Okay.

What kind of a mouse are you using? I think some of my problems is mine.

The last couple of times I played, I was using a Logitech wireless mouse. Right now I'm using a Razer Death Adder.

Is it faster then a regular mouse. I am using a G.E. optical cordless mouse. I'll try setting the speed up on it and see if that helps

I managed to get through the first spider web area but am having trouble where I pick up the freeze rocks.

When I played it last Fall I used a normal Logitech mouse and can't remember how I finally finished Flies and Spiders. Once you get out of there you will be in A Warm Welcome which gives you a breather from all the critters. Something to look forward to.

I will see if I can find Balens Belt save area in my saves later on.

Edit here: looked at a w/t and found there is one more chapter between Flies and Welcome called Barrels out of Bond. Meanwhile I am still stuck on the ramps, can move them, just not run fast enough to make it back to the opposite side.
