What is unique about Level 495?

A visible lock gate delays the nested rainbow layers, so the inner mouth colors become available in stages.

What is the late capacity test?

The final yellow, cyan, red, teal, orange, blue, white, and magenta fragments arrive after the lock-gated layers.

Clear the nested rainbow mouth from the cream frame through the locked magenta, red, orange, yellow, cyan, and purple layers.

If the player asks you to sign in, open the video on YouTube instead.

Clear yellow 14, charcoal 34, cyan 10, orange 3, and cream 25; leave the lock-gated row untouched until an outer group releases.
Follow cream 40, charcoal 30, magenta 25, yellow 20, orange 30, red 30, and the next cream family in source order.
Strip the cream/rainbow frame and outer purple/magenta rings before loading deeper red, orange, yellow, or cyan mouth colors.
As the inner smile opens, use later yellow/cyan/red/teal values and orange/blue/white/magenta rows; falling values are active remainders.
Finish yellow 5, cyan 3, red 25, teal 1, yellow 10, orange 30, blue 23, white 14, and magenta 35 families, then wait for every final fragment.

Colors in this level:

Cream, Blue, Cyan, Yellow, Orange, Magenta, Purple, Charcoal, Red, White, Teal

Clear yellow 14, charcoal 34, cyan 10, orange 3, and cream 25 before forcing the lock.
Track cream/orange 30 families by source position.
Reserve a slot for the post-unlock inner ring.

Board notes 5 details

Layout: A nested rainbow mouth or smiling face contains cream outer bands, blue/cyan and yellow/orange corners, magenta/purple rings, charcoal side blocks, red/orange inner bands, and a cyan-white mouth.
Goal: Open the outer frame and lock-gated inner rings, then clear mouth, inner bands, and scattered final fragments until the frame is empty.
Opening: The first frame shows yellow 14, charcoal 34, cyan 10, orange 3, and cream 25; lower rows include a lock, cream 40, charcoal 30, magenta 25, yellow 20, orange 30, red 30, cream 40/30/25, and orange 21.
Danger Zone: The lock and repeated cream/orange 30 lanes can fill all five slots before the inner rings release; keep capacity for the post-unlock colors.
Mechanics: A visible lock gate delays the inner rainbow layers and the picture reveals from concentric frame to mouth and final multi-color pixels.
