How to Solve Jelly Busters Level 1 — Full Solution
- Tap yellow 50 from the opening pair and let it travel from the lower-left entry across the bottom and up the right side.
- Tap purple 50 next so it works through the upper-left side while the yellow Jelly continues around the loop.
- Put yellow 8 into buffer slot 1, then select that same yellow Jelly again when the tutorial says it has remaining hits.
- Take the visible yellow 40 and purple 40 choices, allowing the Jellies to use the lower, right, top, and left rail segments.
- Continue with the visible 30 and 20 color pairs and reuse any Jelly that still has a number instead of filling the buffer with unfinished pieces.
- Clear the last purple and yellow pixels to reach the SPECTACULAR! victory screen.
Colors in this level:
Purple, Yellow
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Treating yellow 8 in buffer slot 1 as spent and selecting a new yellow before reusing it.
- Filling all five orange slots while the purple and yellow Jellies still show remaining hits on the rail.
Quick Tips for Jelly Busters Level 1 (spoiler-free)
- Select yellow 50 before purple 50 so the right and lower picture opens first.
- A non-zero Jelly in buffer slot 1 is unfinished; reuse yellow 8 before spending the next color pair.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- The board is a large purple-and-yellow circular yin-yang-like picture. Purple fills the upper-left and left side, yellow fills the lower-right and right side, and a yellow cross plus purple center opening sit inside the picture. The rail enters at the lower-left and loops across the bottom, up the right, across the top, and down the left; five orange buffer slots sit below it.
- Goal
- Clear both color regions of the circular picture. Yellow is the first exposed right/lower target, while the purple upper-left mass remains for the second large Jelly and its follow-ons.
- Opening
- The opening tray shows purple 50 and yellow 50. The recorded run selects yellow 50 first, purple 50 second, reuses yellow 8 from buffer slot 1, and then follows the visible yellow/purple 40 pair before the later 30/20 pairs.
- Danger Zone
- Around the first 7–9 seconds, yellow 8 is held in buffer slot 1 while purple 40 travels on the right/top rail. Reusing the unfinished yellow is the move that stabilizes the five-slot tray.
- Mechanics
- Level 1 explicitly teaches that a Jelly with remaining hits must be used again. The tutorial text appears while yellow 8 is in buffer slot 1, and the video ends with the SPECTACULAR! victory screen.
