if you get bored with simple or overkill, try solving the puzzles so that the object stays in the goal area!

I am finding alot of these can be solved with catapults


except that last one

^hahahahahaaha

The last one can be solved with a catapult. You just need a chain on the ball. I had a working one but accidentally clicked the "back to menu" button instead of the save button

It took like 12 wheels to get enough torque to fling the thing.

8/17/2008 2:36:58 PM

thats something I would like to see. Cause I tried. not with 12 wheels, but damn.

8/17/2008 2:43:31 PM

I tried but I couldn't get it working again. It needs about 4 or 5 links of chain. You have to fling it so the ball clears the ledge, but the chain gets caught.

8/17/2008 3:34:34 PM

this is my favorite thing in the world.

8/17/2008 3:41:34 PM

i'm going to go back and catapult everything... the first time i vehicled everything.

(although this isn't a true catapult.)

I only used one.

did anyone get a catapult to work for "up the hump?"

heh. actually that one doesn't stay forever. eventually it gets drug out of the pit.

8/17/2008 4:31:30 PM

I got a catapult built for the last level again, but it won't let me save anymore. When I try to save it locks up

8/17/2008 5:05:37 PM

^the save has been slow today.

8/17/2008 5:13:04 PM

Got a catapult for the over the hump one too. 8 wheels. Still won't save.

8/17/2008 5:18:19 PM

Mission to Mars with just one piece.

8/17/2008 5:21:52 PM

^very nice...i just never got the stick angled properly

8/17/2008 5:26:52 PM

I did it the first time through in almost the first try.

Of course it took me about 15 minutes to recreate it.

8/17/2008 5:33:54 PM

http://FantasticContraption.com/?designId=532757

this one was fun... rigged up a crane to extend the piece into the pink instead of shooting or carrying it over.

8/17/2008 5:50:52 PM

Dear Lord, that's amazing.

8/17/2008 5:58:43 PM

I made a similar one and used it as a wrecking ball...

you can catapult right over that one^

I think the basket is the best one posted so far.

8/17/2008 8:21:19 PM

I can't get past Four Balls.

8/17/2008 8:22:18 PM

You can build a conveyor or a flinger for that one.

8/17/2008 8:30:23 PM

fuck that

basket

8/17/2008 8:35:26 PM

yeah I was like... humm... I wonder if I could build something like a basket and get it to sit in there. I go the basket to sit in it, but the walls were too thick so the balls wouldn't all fit in the goal area. So I had to figure out how to get it up there and dump the load...

8/17/2008 8:37:43 PM

I built a bucket conveyor for that level. Worked out great.

all of these are amazing guys

i especially like the bike and the basket

8/17/2008 10:25:42 PM

^^ LOL! I didn't know you could destroy shit in this game.

8/18/2008 6:48:35 AM

my computer shits itself with anything more than about 10 objects on the screen...some of these creations you guys have make it run at ~3fps and it's impossible to build anything complex myself.

anyone know anything about flash or have any suggestions to devote more system resources to this game? i've closed out everything else possible that's using any significant processor or memory
