EDIT: Wow I just found the single best method of robbing a shop, it doesn't even seem to get you flagged as an outlaw. How I hear you cry simple, get the boulder trap in world one to run into the shop, I had this happen accidently and the shopkeeper got demolished leaving his merchandise for me to pick up (Although he didn't seem to drop a shotgun or gold like he normally does.
Yeah, this gets them angry at me and they always survive and shoot at me. Every time.

Really? He didn't get angry at me just dead and I didn't see any of those vengeful shopkeepers that hang around at the exit when you kill someone either.

Oh yeah baby, you know you like it.  Now stop crying and get in my lungs.
Boil your penis. I'm convinced that's how it happened.

 The second part of that answers the first.

 You can't be angry when dead.

which way do you send the boulder in?  (Front, back) and is he on the ground, raised?

I usually get 'vandal' and attacked

Essentially it went like:
Code: [Select]


                   M     #
                   #     #
    BB                   #
    BB-----------        #
#################-  ###### <--- Impenetrable sidewall
#                 -      #
#S<----------------------#<-Boulder bounced back here
##########################
S = Ex shopkeeper
B = Boulder start point
M = Me (Safe)
- = Boulder path
Of course that is a sketchy version of what happened from my memory.

But don't shops normally have a one tile high entrance, only?  That would mean boulders would whack the sign and piss off Shoppy.  I could be badly misremembering.

Boulders demolish anything in their way, the only thing that can stop them is the edge of the map.

Hm. This is one of the first times I've played a game before seeing it here. Interesting.

Anyhow, I focused on getting all the shortcuts dug first, so now I have them all... And I've gotten to the end of the game once. And, of course, I was out of bombs. Note to self: one cannot, in practice, jump on top of the boss and ride it around. No matter how much of a good idea it seems like at the time.

The developer has implied that will be fixed by the next version.

 In other news, I said screw it all and stopped whipping pots. The next three pots I threw all had spiders. The second two pots were thrown in a vain attempt to kill the present spiders.

 I tell you, those things really, really hate you.
