Those are some easy secret medals to get.

Someone said earlier that you get the secret medals by visiting the artists' pages via the flash. I couldn't find a place from which to do it.

Also, for level 24, you can just get each guy in the corner at their respective sides and bring them in from there. There's more than one viable path there.

Click on their names during the intro :D
Also, level 8 is making me rage.
I managed to make it to the last platform unharmed, but a stupid jumping mistake made me lose one of my plumbers >:

They've been up for a few hours now, but I was hoping to get a written guide to go with them before I posted the link. Not gonna happen, I'm afraid.

Levels 1-18
Levels 19-25

Argh!I beat the game, but I'm still struggling with level 8.
I can do everything perfectly apart from that jump.
My guys always end up too far from each other, so I always fail the next jump.

This is fucking impossible!
Every single time I post here about a specific medal that needs a lot of luck to be obtained, I get it the next time I try!

Skip them.

There isn't much skipping that can be done on that level though. It's very simple once you get it down. It only has one hard part, and that's lining up the bottom middle coin plumber.

I disagree, since I was able to skip the entire right side every time I played the level, and both coins in the bottom left under all the fire. You can theoretically finish the level only collecting 2 extra plumbers. I say 2 and not 3 because in one playthrough I was able to avoid getting that bottom coin entirely when I killed the ...let's call it a toadie... and if you can avoid it there you can avoid it on future jumps. So that means there's the first one on each of the two platforms at the top, and then you drop down to the bottom, duck the toadie coin, and you only collected 2 coins on the entire level.

I agree with your assessment of where the difficulty in the level lies though. That part alone infuriated me to no end. And then I had to do it again for my playthrough video. And then I had to do it a third time when my screen capture software bugged out on me and lost my gameplay video without saving it. ...fun times.

Ah, by the way, for whoever doesn't know what to do yet, you have to jump while he's coming at you, land IN FRONT of him while touching the coin, quickly jump again through the coin and in the meantime, make your clone jump on top of him and make him land (roughly) on top of you.
This happens in a nick of time, so you can't really plan it, just rush, jump and hope for the best.
I did it in a slightly different way which resulted in my guys still being a bit apart from each other, but they were close enough to allow me to complete the level without any problems...
(btw, could anyone be kind enough to upload a pic of the full map of Redder somewhere?I am having a bit of trouble with the secret areas..)

I propose a simpler alternative.

Instead of doing acrobatics and making sure the clone lands on top of the same guy, all within the space of roughly one second, I simply jumped, touched the coin and killed the....thing....then as you bounce back up move as far left in the air (so as the avoid the fireball) and land as far to the left edge of the platform as possible without falling off.

So now you have 2 guys spaced apart, but the distance separating them is just slightly larger than the gap between that platform and the next (the one with 4 enemies). So you can jump left such that you have one guy on the next platform, while the other guy now on the left edge of the same platform. Take your time killing the 4 enemies. To get the other guy over, jump straight up, and hold left as you are landing. From there on it's straightforward.

Might sound slightly complicated in words, but I found it much easier to do than the make-sure-the-guy-stacks-perfectly acrobatics.

I was going to go back through and fix the necessary items one, but it seems that you got it. What exactly did you do to get it because when I only click on the necessary things it doesn't seem to work for me. :P

I want to put an explanation of it in the description so people don't get confused. (look at this, the person's game asking for help from the people playing it. Don't you guys wish that happened more often?)

It looks like you're going by number of clicks. When it took me 11 clicks to get the necessary items, it worked. I'm just about done writing the walkthrough guide.

Yes, the same happened for me. I tried it a few times, but always misclicked at the desk (I clicked on the right of the screen when instead I had to click the bottom, to go one screen "back" and then I could turn right).
But once I got that right and only needed 11 clicks I got the medal.

Game has medals... They even work, sort of... There's no game page medal list for them, so you have to figure them out on your own. They do show show up on your page, and you do get points for them - there's just no brief descriptions you get for them like you get with your other medals.

..the heck?
I have to click the burning clouds a million times before they go away (I even used the mousepad click AND the mouse click at the same time) and most of the time the clouds make it to my plane anyway...am I doin it rong?

It's not about clicking a bunch of times. It's about clicking in the right spot. For example, the clouds move so fast that your click has to start on the cloud and end on the cloud. To do this you actually have to move your mouse a little bit because the cloud will have moved by the end of the click. If my girlfriends little sisters can beat this game then you can to. :P

Of course I can beat it, it was just that I needed to do it without failing..and, of course, I always fail to click the last cloud.
Anyway, I'm pretty sure I'll make it...in the meantime, I got most of the Ludo Vengeance medals..they are all part of the story apart from a very easy secret medal (you have to go somewhere), so it's aaaaaall goooood.

I also had some problems with that part. While, eventually, I can beat the game, it just seems it takes a lot of clicks on the cloud to get rid of them.
