I don't think this has been posted, although I'm sure a video of it was.

Your link is pointing to something else.

Cool to see a playable for this. I think my kids are gonna love it. Thanks Rick.

Jeff Parrott

rollin

The music sounds a bit like Broken Social Scene.

Stuck on 11. UGH.

*got to 13 now. Can't get past this one.

lol, i just beat # 13 using 322 shapes. not very clean but i finally got up there :P

Rick Stirling

motives - I did the same thing on an earlier level. Brute Force works.

Cantilevers work very well too

Mark Dygert

yeah stuck on 13, I have an idea how to get it there but, holy crap its hard to test out an idea without having to redraw it. And Rick has a good tip, I've golf clubbed it, and teeter toddered it a few times, you can really get it moving.

EDIT: just passed 13 by creating hinges and deleting them, which forces the shape to move outside of its hinged parent, and eventually filled up the space pushing the ball up.

Thought it would be interesting to post up some of my less efficient victories:

Level 8 - 20 Shapes (Last Flag was a pain)



Level 10 - 35 Shapes (Didn't notice those two boxes moved until the end. . .)



Level 11 - 16 Shapes



And one of my MORE efficient victories
Level 13 - 6 Shapes




Stuck on 15 atm. Can't figure out how to move the box.

Eric Chadwick

That last one is elegant, nice job.

Tumerboy you are AWESOME!

Rick Stirling

How did you do the one with the box? i was thinking a series of cantilever lifts. But I failed.

Tulkamir

Damnit, that game is addicting. Haha, played it through all, wish there was more. Very fun.

Rick Stirling

You can put pins in the ball. Bum.

SideEffect

yea putting pins on the ball makes it really easy to cheat. If you just use a ton of hinges branching from the ball and over a ledge you can just keep adding weight to the other side to catapult it pretty much anywhere you want.
pretty cool game though
