I can't make it past the room with the rolling blades. What strategy should I use to pass this room?

Turn the brightness up on your monitor for this page!!!!!!!!!!!

The idea here is to stand in the space between the blades (it might not be but that's how I did it). In order to be between them, you have to know where to stand. Here's a demonstration below:


Firstly, you must be against the wall to live. I apologise about the darkness of the pictures (I was using a bright monitor at the time), but you should be able to see the yellow switch if you look closely.

Have a look at the position on the tiles in relation to the switch and you should be able to figure out where to stand (see the diagram "Positions" below). Note that the "bottom" refers to the side of the room you started.

Whether you do it from bottom-right to top-right or bottom-left to bottom-right etc. etc. etc, you'll need to cross the room. This involves jumping in-between the blades while they are coming towards you when you are standing on top of a slope. Sound confusing? Well here's a demonstration:



Core probably meant us to jump between the blades all the way through instead of using my tactic, but I'm catering for the less co-ordinated of us who always get the short end of the stick (although Core has given you a health/save crystal to use depending on which gaming platform you are using).
