I know you guys love these things so I can't wait to see some of your replays (id suggest not viewing my replays until you play a few levels that way you build your contraptions based on your interpretation of physics rule sets instead of someone elses): http://fantasticcontraption.com/

PS: Once you get into this game you may lose a lot of time that day.

Heh, I played this a few days ago. Fun game. I didn't create an account though so none of my replays are saved. Good job on the Big Ball solution... I think I just made a wedge and wedged mine underneath it.

I've been tinkering with designs that unfold into larger contraptions after launching. Here's my version of the one Shoruk3n just posted:

And another minor unfolding guy. I like the fact that it folds up it's back wheel again as it drives off the screen:

This one I was trying to implement a ball-shooter concept. I think it could be done a little better.

I wish I saved my Mission to Mars, because it was a quite simple unfolding design. So far I've never built a tank tread, which seems to be a popular solution for conveyer belts and tanks. I only played the first 14 though.

I was super proud of myself after making a treaded vehicle. Then I saw that 23412562305 other people did a better job at it before me.

I was messing around today trying to come up with new ways of clearing some levels other than super tanks/cars and catapults.

I got this idea for square/crucfix wheels for the step level but i accidently moved an inside wheel out of place and decided to run it. And it bugged out and went insane! So i copied the same error on to the front wheel and came up with this piece of awesome:
