[Fantastic Contraption] Earn my greatest FC respect

I’m disturbed by the solution count for my level “the Sword Trick,” because it’s zero. The problem isn’t that the level is impossible, merely difficult (both conceptually and practically). So I offer up this challenge to all you clever people:

Beat My Level (please?)

dude…. no way they will even fit in that box….. u cant make them lay down horizontal or stand verticle.

I’ll work on it whenever I take a break. I’ve already gotten a proof of concept design that almost gets one of the falling ones to where it needs to go.

All in all, very nice level. I’ll definitely have fun with it.

I got it. took way too long. This contraption relies far too much on the swaying motion it produces. I really should have thought more about the mechanism for pushing the top horizontal goal bar in…

Still, that was fun!

impressive win man… here’s your certificate:

RapteOfSuzaku has earned my greatest FC respect

I will print it and frame it.

Though that was a seriously nice level. I even used an on-screen ruler at one point.

Hey, thanks man, and good job to both of you. If you’re looking for more, you might want to try “Brain Teaser.” It has a similar feel to “Sword Trick,” but the challenge is different.

Brain Teaser was equally fun, but easier to solve. I just love how your levels feel. Most other levels give off a feeling of obviously having a solution (or of being garbage without a possible solution). Your levels only seem to offer theoretical solvability. They come off as being more open ended, which is really fun.

Kamelkoff:
As for people who rip off the designs of others, I don’t really care that much. If I were looking for lots of praise, then I’d at least be using my real name. (And I can always go flag their ripoff)

And I like your design for Sword Trick better! The way your design pushes back in the top horizontal bar is much better than mine. The design I posted may look quick, but it took way too much tweaking to get that bar to return at all. Even my bar feeding mechanism was tempermental.
