Re: fun physics/engineering game
I got to the slingshot to mars thing and was just stumped on how to generate enough power to sling the thing.
so far, Ive been doing best with a track vehicle like concept.

ahhh, all the way around the ball and it wont fall, duh. It's so obvious I can't fathom how I didnt think of that. i was looking at how to sling it but never thought to just form a gear of sorts.
thanks!

It took me a little over an hour to get all the way through.
Pretty fun game.
Once you figure out you can move the pink piece it gets easier.
I did the same thing on my last one JR

don't even let me near this...this game circled around my office during my internship a couple of years ago and everyone was addicted to it. I finally beat the whole thing after I went back to school, and vowed never to open it again

Re: fun physics/engineering game
idaho...i made a track vehicle of sorts, but used the yellow balls with just a stick connecting them, (not acutal tracks, just looks like a damn tank) with the pink ball in the front as a "scoop" triangulated in place, with a stick as a wedge to help all the balls go over my vehicle.
edit
three tiers high, and i used the entire length of the work area to make my "horsepower".
Clear as mud?
