Title: free net games...
Post by: lee celtic on August 27, 2008, 20:47:45
Well I have completed the 20 free levels and it took nearly three days and I couldn't sleep properly because my mind was weeerrriiinnnggg all night trying to get them to work :roll:

however this is the best free game I have played on the net so far.

So for all you engineers and physics buffs or just the big hammer brigade I give you the anoying (but straingely fun)

Like Boss said, think outside the box man!
It wont be so satisfying if you copy someone elses. I was stuck on one and I showed the missus, she said 'why don't you just build something that does......' So thats what I built, and it worked! Not quite so satisfying when your shown a solution that is simple, you get to a point where the contraption just won't work no matter how much time you spend building it and you have to give up and think of another way.  Most can be solved using quite simple designs.
