Help with Tower of Oz?

Just started seriously doing tower of Oz today. Before today I kept giving up on floor 2, now I made it to floor 7 but ran out of time. Does anyone have any tips for me? I especially need help on floor 4, I don't understand it at all. Second run today I get there, and it tells me that I need to head to the right side immediately, so I go there, and by the time I get there and kill something it tells me the monsters are unbalanced and I need to go back to the left side right off the bat, I don't understand. I ended up starting with something like -200 balance points because of that.

Personally I used this thingy http://imgur.com/LJmPmhw, just jump every 0.3 seconds, and walk off without jumping if the platform is under you.
You will make it to the next platform as long as you are on the middle of the platform.

Personally I need a picture to look at, but audio wouldn't help me at all

I just can't do it that way, I always screw up. Maybe I'll try to make an audio for people

@Lecarde a picture isn't helpful though, I can't look at it whille I'm jumping, but if i had a sound file then i wouldnt have to think just press a button when i hear a sound

You just have to be lucky on floor 4 that it doesn't change side often, and don't fall when crossing the pit. (additional invincibility duration potential on top/overall helps alot in Tower of Oz)

Open alicia's hotline (or almost anything else w/ a text box) while falling into the pit-- you can just walk across, atk the monster above then use the hotline to teleport to the top of the map.

@ihatecatsongs: Too lazy to upload my picture to imgur, but here is a page in korean that lists every floor in the tower, along with a picture of the ledges in floor 2

could someone make a youtube video for the second floor, I can't memorize it and I was thinking if someone who can do it would like say start when they start holding right then make some kind of sound everytime you need to jump that would be a huge help for everyone.

Make a map of the height of each platform is on notepad for floor 2, then have the rhythm engraved into your muscle memory.

I don't [I]absolutely[/I] hate him, just like 97% hate lol but seriously I don't like pretentious people that much so his basil posts do get on my nerves. And thanks for the link, I had no idea that he had videos up, or that he had a youtube channel for that matter.

is that the balancing floor?
i usually kill slow.. that way it (almost) always stays balanced and i dont have to move back and forth to each side.
i guess its different if you are good at jumping, but i always fall so its faster for me that way

Just go in and door 1F then leave after you start the jq. Repeat it many times. Youll get a lot of points from the boxes over time. Then you can buy better pills to get further or more slots
