finally beat it. lots of shapes though, and without looking at youtube!!

Now that i look at youtube there's WAY easy ways to do it. You can use shapes to bump the ball up and stuff. Plus you can add wheels to the square!

man i did a great job at "thinking outside of the box" and beating some pretty hard ones with only a few shapes...but after watching some youtube videos, there are a few levels I thought WAY to hard on. Level 26 being one of them, never thought to give the square it's own wheel and cruise in with one shape

I was drunk and tired and ended up beating some of the last few with 20+ shapes.

There are engineers, good engineers, and SUPER DUPER HYPERENGINEERS.

I think you fall into the last category.


I would like to see that beast in action though

dweedle, on 12 one way is to think about swinging an arc through the target with the fulcrum at the "Xed" box

yeah 13 is a little tougher to do with minimal shapes, really easy if you just want to brute-force "push" it up to the flag. I did it my way with 5 shapes, but I learned on youtube afterwards there's a way to do with with one but it's by using a glitch in the engine

did you use the glitch to "pop" it to the other side then delete it to let it roll in?

beat it

never looked at any hints from anywhere

[Edited on April 19, 2008 at 3:08 AM. Reason : though i resorted to the bigger hammer approach several times]


now that i'm looking at youtube, i see that i was much more Rube Goldberg in my approach, rather than continually adding and erasing pieces once it was set it motion. i did that some, but more often built stuff that would work on its on after i simply set it into motion.

it's all about pins and hinges. most of the levels with a pin or hinge and a very large shape you can create a pivot or level to move it to the flag.
