fantastic contraption

[finboz]

every now and again the internets deliver something which is so good you dedicate hours of your life to it, with this in mind dont click the link if you have anything important to do today

you were warned

20 levels, 3 wheels, 2 types of joining rods. A move/edit tool and a delete tool.
Looks quite simple but it can be very complex.

The aim is to make a contraption to carry a shape to the red goal 'area'

That is the coolest game ever made and I'm on level 10 or so "mission to mars" and I'm stuck but I won't leave work... thanks buddy.

I just did Mission to Mars. Here's a huge hint. The game understands centripetal acceleration (centrifugal force).

Geeez! I hate you! I just stayed 35 extra minutes at work without realizing it!

Nice and addictive!!! Thanks! (I think!) :rof:

Oh thanks. last I checked my kids all lived at home and I had two dogs, now I only one kid is home and one dog

Physics "crack"

Damn thats challenging/addicting

You guys are some creative mofos I got to Mission to Mars and was like f- this LOL...

I got mars done and a few more last night, I used a swinging arm to toss the red thing in there. Stuck on the big ball right now and contemplating a separate vehicle to push the ball out, it's a cluster though

Here's another one from a while back, really similar and equally hard to stop playing:

Physics games are sooooooo addicting.

that is a bit too fun for a "nerdy game" thanks!!!

I got through that one after MANY tries.... I'm stuck on the Tube now. Truly puzzling!

 

[AJ_rider]

This looks like it might be dangerous, I've got too many projects to work on right now...I'll have to bookmark it for when I have some free time! :thumbup:

Also it reminds me of a game I used to play when I was younger, Incredible Machine or something like that.

Thanks, I haven't gotten anything done at work today. I'm hooked... On the other hand our design programs have been glitching and locking up all day, so I've had some time...

OK, I have to brag on this one, as I spent two hours on it.

This is for the Down Under level. It launches the ball, and then hauls it back in after hitting the target!

once it scores, hit Back and keep watching.

Wow! That's an engineering feat! Show's your creative mind at work! Mine was a lot simpler with a counter weight over one edge and a wheel to push the object over the other edge with enough links to swing it into place.

Very cool that you actually pulled it back in!!! Now show me how you engineer the Tube! I am SOOOO stuck!

 

[FZ1inNH]

GOT IT!!! :steve:

The Tube has been defeated!
