Seems a little vague... the youtube video is kind of lame too. But, it seems interesting. Another British game, apparently! Boy, they're just getting more and more clever across the pond.
The "Escape" puzzle is easy up until level six... I'm stuck!

I'm going to go against custom for Puzzle Trails (which this seems to be) and post the solves for the first few stages as the video implies we're dealing with something at least passably ARG-ish. Sorry for the mess, I'll delete it if you want.
Oh, I think it's important to highlight something on the main page regarding the text mailbox he set up: "I am reminded to tell you that it will cost you 25p for each message you receive from me. The helpline for this service is 07005808577" . Just in case it wasn't obvious enough on the page.
Level One:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Click the "escape link to here
Level Two:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Click the black "escape" link to here
Level Three:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
In the third line, click "escape" to go here
Level Four:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
View the source to find the next page
Level Five:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Click the fourth line, first word to go here
Level Six:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Reversing refers to the atbash cipher: it tells you to go here
Level Seven:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Use the fake Google search, which takes you here
Level Eight:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Click on the second to last link to go here

I finally beat that stupid dirtbike game, you get a highscore window at the end, which I did not make it on to . I didn't see anything obvious there.
Also, you can skip around levels by pressing A, but I don't know if just beating the last level will get you to the highscore screen.

From past experiance, I thought it could possible be useful to note down the current tags on youtube:
help me tlemporary arg game forest bishop spixworth perplex city lost expierience unfiction death pain dying
Also, the youtube account can be found here:

Edit: But seriously, I need to know the answer to level 10, because its driving me mad!
Edited for mistakes.

where?! From the link I got from the clue, it only gave me a directory. With some empty folders in, and one single game.
Unless hes changed it
EDIT: Spysect your right!! The liquidstorm site has been updated, Looks like we are moving way to fast for this one! (or at the very least, a linked site dying mid puzzle, is a pain in the bum xD)
EDIT 2 - THE RETURN: You know, the clue:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
try swinging along a bit. We recommened you aviod any spikes.
Reminds me of games like pitfall
EDIT 3 - This time its serious: OMG I WAS RIGHT, I found the next link xD I R TEH WINNAR!!!!111!! /overly emotional
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The game you need to look for is Pendulemeca. There you will find a Game sponsers link
However, I compleated level 11, and I called the number. It doesnt work yet
Also on reflection, I cant believe I was playing the sodding bike game for hours xD

You and me both! I spent about ten minutes playing that stupid game and those are ten minutes I shan't be getting back. Not fair!
I found level 11 through google as well but I haven't tried calling the number yet because, well, I can't be bothered right now
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
level 11 quick way - google escape "level eleven"

I've called the number:
DON'T READ THE SPOILER AS PHONE NUMBER IS IN THERE!
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
07039400567
And in there was the worse 'Microsoft Sam's' Voice ever!
There were four options to choose from and I've recorded them all, plus without background distrubance as I've disabled my phone microphone and recorded at the same time on my trusty Sony Ericsson K800i!
And if you don't believe these are the whatchacallit lines, you can check them yourself!
As attached, start at 0 and count up as I've ordered them from 0 to 4.[/spoiler]

Wow. Those things are really creepy. I think those weird stutters were intentional.
