Sometimes I wish I still had a working copy of to Incredible Machine. That game was insanely hard sometimes but still awesome.

too much fun, hardcore timesink. it's really cool once you beat a level to look at other peoples' solutions and see what other minds have come up with.

i've got a bunch of saved solutions, post yours up and i'll post mine

Some of my creations in the later levels are just the saddest thing. All with a bunch of neutral wheels holding some sticks up.

i am pretty bad at figuring things out in this game, but it is fun as heck.

edit: actually, apparently I was just in an idiot mood yesterday where I wanted to randomly connect wheels and have that be the answer. This game is fun now that I'm thinking about it in the right way.

Sorry, I thought it would let you see the user-levels but not play them.

I highly recommend it -- it's worth the 10 bucks.

Hell of kudos and 1 tiny can for this.

Also, my  Back and Forth (http://FantasticContraption.com/?designId=308270) is pretty similar to yours.
