Hello friends, A continuation of the previous level. Introducing a simple but delicate machine to understand: the ball inverter. I hope you like it?! Notes. - 70 possibilities for the order of the balls.Only 1 arrangement will make you win. - The first balls that fall to the ground, when starting the level, are used for the initial configuration of the system
Brilliant! Loved it. Great mechanical logic level. I don't recall seeing another level quite like this before I think I played it wrong the first time and got all the stars , then correctly the 2nd time, which would have been harder if I'd not already known the formula A ball stuck once during one play, but that is forgiveable given the delicate balance of this unique level Thx
Spoiler: Warning Game Spoiler Spoiler: Play game before reading @Valentin you may want to consider resubmitting this level, with a locking mechanism on the ramp so it can't be force reset every ball
Love this! Again I took the pragmatic route and observed first by random order. Then the pattern was easy. You made me think about the number of orderings, as I wanted to understand the logic. 2^8 = 256 is the wrong answer. It's 8 choose 4, of course...
I love games which require programming like these. Unique gameplay, with integrated step through debugger
A very interesting second version of this idea. Mainly because at this level you added a completely new pendulum mechanism. I really like the pendulum mechanism on this level. Only for this mechanism you can already give 5! This is very cool. But the gameplay is also very interesting and original. Logic is also 5. By the way, it only took me 2 attempts, the second time I chose the correct combination and won. You just need to be very careful the first time and look very intently at the mechanism. And then on the second try you can win. Of course 5 my friend. Thank you!
@ArGee Yes it may happen that a ball remained blocked, I made plenty of draft designs, this one is my better option for a smooth experience … Thanks for finding the game spoiler. I forgot to put a lock mechanism for the ramp as I forgot to think about cheating ! Let’s assume it is a way to make an easy version of the level ?!
@delator77 Thank you for your comment @Block builder You method was the intended one, according to me, for a player discovering the level Some math because you mentioned it The number of different combinations is given by : C(8,4) = 8! / ((8-4)! 4!) = 70 (The previous level Order in balls had 252 combinations.)
@Meak Thank you for your comment. Your sharing of your own attempt to create a binary inverter, several months ago, was deeply encouraging ! @Denis Nazin Happy that you like this mech ! I didn’t know if people would look closely at their first try or would make some forecast calculations using binary logic. It depends on the player in the end. The point is I tried to keep it simple . Thanks !
Oops I forgot to see the tips and passed with trial and error method . But the gameplay is as much fascinating as the previous .
Every method that works is okay to me . I’m happy of your feedback because the previous level was built to prepare players to this one (that I made first)
My brain was feeling too lazy to do the maths, so I just watched and counted which balls went where, . Great fun idea, love it!
