started this episode on wednesday, which means i was two episodes behind due to being stuck on the previous episode for a very long time, only because i've been super adamant about not using boosters, not even one to pass levels i've been stuck on for a while. as a result, i have hundreds of boosters stacked up. in a stark contrast to the previous episode, i just finished this episode an hour ago. it was probably me being very lucky, but i was breezing through the episode, most of which i passed on the first try, until i hit a dead wall at level 2478, which i've been stuck on since wednesday and finally passed it earlier today. then came level 2480, which i thought i would also be stuck on for a while, but i surprisingly passed it on my third try. clearly the most difficult part is setting up the candies so that there's two candies of a matching color above in the columns before the ingredients go into the portals and a candy of a matching color immediately to the portals' left and right so that you can switch the ingredients once it comes up to that tile. even when you finally do get the correct setup, often times there's at least one matching color candy ahead of the ingredient on the belt, and so unless you can get rid of them before it destroys your perfect setup to switch the ingredients, it's often annoying to set it up once more. yet another problem is even when you do manage to switch the ingredients over, then you have to make sure you are able to get rid of the candies below the ingredients and in that one tile space at the top where the portals are. in my case, i got lucky with the candies at the top where i was able to keep making matches until the ingredients fell through. i think i had 4 moves left, nbu.
