This very fun online game was made using the flash port of Erin Catto's Box2D physics engine. (Which I also wrapped for DBPro)

You can find the game here: http://fantasticcontraption.com/

You can download the Box2D plugin for DBPro HERE. (It now has help files!)

Please post any interesting constructions you make here (you can share them by clicking the 'save' button after completing a level, and it will give you a link), and remember that there are a lot of different ways that you can complete each level

My construction for the 'tube' level:

This is like Armadillo Run.

And it still boots quicker than any other laptop I've seen.

Wow. I tried the 3 pieces one, but failed. v.v

Thanks, though. I couldn't see those until I did it.

Awash in 18 seconds - my best time on that level so far: http://FantasticContraption.com/?designId=363230

[EDIT]Forget that - one small tweak (can you spot it?) got it down to 12 seconds: http://FantasticContraption.com/?designId=363332

My most awesome contraption yet

See if you can tell how it works before you press 'play'. You'll never guess!

It's also on one of the hidden levels. If you click 'other players' contraptions' under 'over the hump', about half of them are contraptions for the hidden levels!

Yay, I solved the level "Unpossible":

I think there's a bug in the end though(the water rod goes through the ground).

This is a neat little game

Has anybody beat "Back and Forth"? I cant't seem to get it

Here's what I have so far (Link)

The idea is that the thing scoops it up, then the rollers going the other way pull and turn around, and then head into the winning box.

But it wont scoop it up.. lol

Yep. I made it to be crazy. Here's a more "professional" solution (though not nearly as efficient as yours).

How do I get to them?

Hardest level ever!
http://FantasticContraption.com/?designId=379836

Click 'other player's designs' for the 'Up The Hump' level.
About half of them are extra levels, especially the ones with odd names
