===================================DISCLAIMER==================================
I have decided not to allow websites other than Gamefaqs (www.gamefaqs.com),
IGN (faqs.ign.com) & Gamespot (www.gamespot.com) to host my FAQs from now on.
Please don't ask, because I will not grant permission. It's just that too many
sites don't keep their version of my FAQ up to date which makes for a lot of
hassle in my mailbox.
So if anyone sees this FAQ on any site other than those mentioned above, please
let me know and I will take care of the situation, thanks.
Just to make things crystal clear for some people, this FAQ is not to appear
anywhere at the following URLs:

(C) THE GAME
###############################################################################
Bricklayer J. Gastronomy
The game basically involves swinging to the top of a building without falling
to your death at the streets below. That's your goal for each stage of the
game. Every stage is identical except for a colour change and a few more
hazards along the way.
###############################################################################
(C-01) HAZARDS
###############################################################################
------
People
------
The first hazard that you need to deal with is people. If your web hits a
person before it hits part of the building, you will fall. So, always watch
for a person in your way before you shoot your web [or try shooting it in
another direction].
-----
Bombs
-----
These bombs sit and explode on their own. The only real danger is if your web
touches them, which causes you to fall.
----------
Hob-Goblin
----------
The Hob-Goblin flies back and forth near the top of the building [in the first
stage]. If he touches your web, you fall down. If he touches your body, you
will fall down. You pretty much want to climb up past him as fast as possible.
--------
Building
--------
The building itself is actually a hazard to you. You can ONLY land your web on
any part of the building that is the same colour as the building itself. If
you hit the windows, open air, or anything that's not the colour of the
building, you will fall. You can make this a bit easier by aiming your web
straight up, but this means that you can't swing.
----
Goal
----
Yes the goal at the top of the building is also a hazard. Although you want to
touch this with your body to end each stage, you DON'T want to hit it with your
web. If you nail the goal with your web, you're going to fall.
-------
Falling
-------
If you don't pay attention to any of the hazards mentioned above, you will
start to fall. If you don't react to falling, then you're going to hit the
streets and lose a life.
Once you start falling you need to quickly, but calmly shoot your web and land
it on part of the building to stop your fall. After you've done this you can
keep climbing.
-----
Timer
-----
There is also a time limit in each stage, which is represented by a red bar in
the bottom right corner. When this timer runs out, you lose a life. However,
if you swing into people in the windows, then you can restore a bit of the
timer.
###############################################################################
(C-02) TIPS
###############################################################################
------
Layout
------
The basic layout of the building itself never changes. It starts with windows
at the bottom that are easy to use your web around. The second part involves
some small squares and fine wires between them. The top part is a narrow
section with the goal on it.
------
Web Up
------
In almost all cases, it's easiest to simply aim straight up with your web and
climb it. It's easier to aim and you don't need to worry about swinging into
the Hob-Goblin.
------
People
------
Although you don't want to hit people with your webs, you can touch them with
your body to raise your time limit somewhat.

(D) EXPERIMENTAL
###############################################################################
For a little while now I've had a paypal link in all my FAQs at the very bottom
here. Mainly as a small experiment since a few other FAQ authors have also had
the same idea.
I had a few people email me before I put this link in because they wanted to
send money, so it's here for those people.
For the record I've received about $87 (which works out to a bit more in
Canadian lol) last I checked, so I've been getting cases of pop and making some
excellent progress on a few FAQs.
If you don't want to send money or can't then send me an email, it's nice to
hear what people thought about my work and there's always room for improvement.
My email address and paypal address for those that want to contribute are both

Many thanks, and I hope you continue to use my work!
