Pixel Flow Level 40 Walkthrough

This level features a classic desert succulent: a bright green cactus sitting in a brown and orange pot. The main challenge here isn't the cactus itself, but the weird "key locks" sitting on the left and right sides of the board. You have two vertical columns of blocks flanking the artwork.

  • Left Column: Orange on top, Green on bottom. Both have key icons.
  • Right Column: Green on top, Orange on bottom. Both have key icons.

These keyed blocks are essentially "must-clear" barriers. You cannot clear the deeper layers of the cactus until you manage the flow of pigs around these locked pillars. The rule to beat Pixel Flow Level 40 is simple but strict: prioritize clearing the white outline to expose the green and orange cores, but do not ignore those locked side pillars or your slots will jam. It is a very hard level because the game baits you into clearing the easy cactus blocks while neglecting the locks.

Pixel Flow Level 40 Overview

The artwork is a neat little voxel cactus. It has a thick white outline that acts as a shield for the inner colors. The cactus itself is a solid "trident" shape of green cubes. Beneath it is a pot with a brown rim and a bright orange center.

The asymmetry here is subtle but dangerous. The locked pillars on the sides are inverted mirrors of each other.

  • Left side: Orange over Green.
  • Right side: Green over Orange.

This means if a Green Pig comes down the belt, it might be useless for the Left-Top lock but perfect for the Right-Top lock. You have to watch which specific lock is exposed. The cactus sits comfortably in the middle, but those side pillars are the real threat. They don't just sit there; they block your pigs from hitting anything behind them if the angle is wrong, and they demand specific colors at specific times.

First Color Zone to Erase in Pixel Flow Level 40

I start by shaving off the White outline surrounding the cactus. This is the safest opening move for a few reasons.

First, the White blocks are the most abundant and accessible layer. By clearing the white cubes around the cactus arms and the pot, you expose the Green and Brown/Orange layers underneath. You need this surface area exposed. If you get a Green pig early and the green cactus body is still wrapped in white "insulation," that pig is dead weight. It will drop into your slot and clog up your board.

Second, ignore the locked pillars for the first 10 seconds. They are distractions. You need to open up the board so that when the game inevitably sends you a mix of Brown or Orange pigs, they have targets on the main artwork, not just the tiny locked pillars.

How to pass Pixel Flow Level 40 without power ups or boosters

Once the white outline is shredded, the picture looks messy. You'll see the raw green voxel flesh of the cactus and the brown rim of the pot. This is the mid-level danger zone.

Here is the trick: Match the Locked Pillars to the Cactus Body.

You will get Green and Orange pigs now. Do not just blindly tap them. Look at the side pillars.

  • If you have a Green Pig, check if the Right-Top lock (Green) or Left-Bottom lock (Green) is available. If yes, use the pig. If not, check the main cactus body.
  • If you have an Orange Pig, check the Left-Top lock or Right-Bottom lock.

The trap in Pixel Flow Level 40 is that the side pillars have very low ammo requirements (usually 1 or 2 hits), but the pigs often carry 5 or 10 ammo. If you hit a side pillar and destroy it, the pig still has 8 ammo left. It needs a secondary target. If you haven't exposed the inner orange of the pot or the green of the cactus, that pig sits in your waiting slot with 8 ammo and nowhere to go.

So, ensure you have exposed the Orange center of the pot before you attack the orange locks on the pillars. Ensure the Green cactus body is naked before you attack the green locks. This ensures your pigs can finish their clips.

Last Details You Clean Up in Pixel Flow Level 40

In the final few moves, the side pillars should be gone. You are likely left with the bottom rim of the pot (Brown) and perhaps a few stray Green blocks near the base of the cactus.

The Brown color is tricky because it only exists on the pot rim. There are no Brown locks on the side. This means Brown pigs are "high risk" because they have very few valid targets. Save a slot for them. Don't let your waiting area get full of Green/Orange pigs, or you won't have room to stash a Brown pig while you wait for the pot to rotate into view. Clear the Brown rim aggressively whenever a Brown pig appears to get them out of the rotation quickly.
