Just finished 21. Look at this mess. lol

Image

Ugh, 20, I made a mess of it, ddint save a scrren cap but I built and arch type bridge and supported the middle section by steel connectors from where the chest falls.

Then I made a triabgle of walkable wood on the brdge where the chest hits it so that when it breaks the guys can walk on the broken pieces and push them around, kinda like my 21 pic shows for one of them.

Here is my design for 20; sometimes it needs tweaking, esp. on the break-away but it stops the chest very well.

Levl 18 : HARD !
Lol I struggled the whole of yesterday evening with level 17
So softly , so perfect , seemingly sleepingly
But for you , sleep , forever will do
Wish only to fight the urge
Beaten senselessly for your basic need
Sunken eyes around me ,
sunken spirits is what I see
Children , old beyond their day

Go up top cuz the elephant wont fit through the bottom.



I went and redid some earlier maps to get more funs for the challenge rounds, level 14 really brought in the cash.

So I have a total of $12,353 now.

Wanna go back and redo a bunch...I like the most simplistic clean approach, Humby actually did his #9 similar to what I had. I had a very simply clean approach for 20 and 21 too. Just not in the mood to take the time to SS and post 'em.

YeOld . Ja most of mine was rather clean too , just that Level 18 one I gave up being neat on . Level 19 was easy . Built a "suspension bridge" as many of the people did here . Lol I am so curious to see what the other people say but I try not to see screenshots of levels I have not played yet , want to keep it fair to myself

Lol lol lol , I was thinking where to support this text that I have just written , no more gaming for me :) PS I'm a tad drunk after a batchelors party and it is late

You try it a few times right? sometimes it falls for me and other times it doesnt.

The angle of the bottom most base where the supports come out is very important.

With these multi-bridge levels....need a way to erase/scrap 1 bridge yet leave the others intact...because it's a pain deleting each beam 1 x 1 when you have a big bridge with like...50 links in it.

I did level 1 with no supports just 2 walks :)

you can select some joints and hit delete and it will delete all beams connected to that joint unless its a perm joint.

Should we start a competition within SG for the longest bridge?
