I just can't do it
I keep dying in the Ice cream level. LAst time I took a double hit at once, an ice cream to the head and body, while I accidently jumped instead of shielding. I wish they had given us 2 levels to chose from, easy and hard, for different prizes.
When do you think the cut off will be? I wonder if it would be better to send a bad score, than no score at all?
I hear you.
But don't give up. I kept and kept and KEPT on dying in the ice cream level, but I've now managed to reach level 5 the last couple of times. Practice DOES help! You can do it.
I use the mouse to pick tools, and in the ice cream level I click-click-click on the shield unless I need to use something else. That way, I only need to worry about ice creams that fly past when I need to do something else like spring (in which case I wait for them) or the ones that are going to hit my head. Most seem to be aimed at Abigail's body.
That said, there ARE two levels of difficulty. It's just that they're both really hard. :p Playing as AAA, you need to spring over large hills in Turmac Roll, he moves faster (I think) and encounters more obstacles, and Scram is faster. I was going to try for a win with AAA in case it gives a better daily prize, but now I'm concentrating on Abigail... it's hard enough with her. I seriously hope players won't be cheated out of the Spifftastic prize for accepting Roo's challenge but not winning the game...
EDIT: If you're getting splatted with ice cream while trying to roll through the sticky, try normal-jumping instead of bubbling. Even if you land in the middle of the sticky ice cream, it only slows you down for a moment and you can quickly jump out of it again while still having your shield or helmet up.
