My attempt at a catapult...

ROFL!
first try, it just falls apart at the seams... then I hit spacebar and it almost works.

This game reminds me of a 2d contraption type game I played when I was younger. Iv tried looking for it before but cant for the life of me remember what it was called.

You had an array of different objects like electric fans, bowling balls, fish bowels and even a cat and usually your objective was to make a certain sequence happen using the supplied house hold materials.

I kept trying to make a launcher/catapult of some sort to get through unpossible like everyone else but i just couldn't get it to launch something large enough. Then i said "%$$% this" and made my own way. It's a raising platform with a car attached :-).

indeed, that was rather nice.

And I tried to tweak my catapult for like hours last night, but i never could get it to work right. Especally when every time i changed something, it fell apart...

Finishing U-turn....The Other way!
Took four hours to get from "basic idea" to working design.

P.S: Design Simplified into only the necessary components (realized that the "pushbridge" to allow the machine to get a grip on the other side was no longer necessary).

P.P.S: Removed the "winch" as well. Final Design

I actually tried to do the same thing but with a launcher and a moving platform to bounce the goal ball off of, but it failed. le sigh....

I remember playing a similar game on the Amiga about 20 years ago... so the idea is not new. But these games are entertaining.

Looking through the other peoples designs, I found this.
I don't understand how this one works. Confused

I was finding this a bit easy so I came up with a challenge for myself. Try and do all the levels without using any moving wheels, only the power of gravity.

I tried to play this game but I don't have the patience for it. Does that mean I'm stupid? :(
