A game that certainly gets your brain working... very fun 5/5.
I recommand doing a break every 2-3 levels to rest your head...

I wish there was more. This is a really well thought out puzzle. The only bummer I have is my own fault. I failed to save any solutions except the very last two.

Also compare how to make a manipulator "wait" without wasting cycles:

,10,90,1,ucdrrorr;
Note how each manipulator has the exact same instruction set; the only difference is when the "close" instruction activates, and the initial position of the arms.

There are times when a function to simply toggle grip would be quite useful, especially when it comes down to you reaching your limit of actions for one arm. Btw, Truly amazing game 5/5.

5/5, absolutely magnificent. I've never played a game with a reward more satisfying than seeing the gears click into place when you've found a successful combination in here, and it's all set to a wonderful score which is both calming, inspiring, and keeping with the mood.

Looking at the all time high scores I see that the two best scores ever on level 1 are 11 cycles. How is that possible? The best I can figure is 13 cycles, and then I grab every water unit as they appear.

Oh God, I feel so stupid. I was stuck on level two forever! But then I realized you can use more than one manipulator. :D

This game (and its successor) are my favorite games on Kongregate. I'm annoyed that it's three years old now and still no badges... You guys have no taste. This game is brilliant, but it takes an intelligent mind to figure out how it works, so I guess I can see why some haven't given it badges yet. ;)

I don't get how people are getting 11 cycles on the first one. To do this you'd have to get an aqua in place in three cycles... I just don't see how this is possible.

Still one of my favorite games. It's amazing that I can come back 7-8 years after it was published and still marvel at the awesomeness of the gameplay. I really wish you guys would've considered making another sequel to it instead of trying those other 3D games at zachtronics. Especially if you'd made a mobile game like this, I'd play the hell out of that.

Great game! 5/5 instantly. Check on SpaceChem (not a flash game, that one). Main difference is that: here we have rotating manipulators, in SpaceChem we have moving manipulators. If you love that one, you will love the other.

Awesome music, 5/5 for being a math game.
And yeah, your programing should be at integer ratios I.E. 1:X on every single manipulator when compared to any other so stuff doesn't jam, the placement of stop cycles plays a key role as well, being at the begging as opposed to the end can determine the difference between finishing and jamming.

Just found this, played first level, 5/5 and favorited. Please add badges, make sequel, etc. I will now spend three weeks slowly chugging through these puzzles.
