"Artists need to make money to eat and to continue to make art. Artists used to rely on middlemen to collect their money on their behalf, thereby rendering themselves innocent of cash-handling in the public eye. Artists will now be coming straight to you (yes YOU, you who want their music, their films, their books) for their paychecks. Please welcome them. Please help them. Please do not make them feel badly about asking you directly for money.” -Amanda Palmer

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 is pretty similar to yours.
