I did the same thing but for some reason added 2 rods to hold the ball at the top in a triangle shape. Probably served no purpose but at least then I wasnt totally copying! I think it only works if you make use of the slight lip at the bottom right!

Just spent all day playing this.

You made handling too hard though:

Has anyone stumped up the fiver for access to the user designed levels?

My entry for the sillyness competion...level one...which you can do by just putting the ball on the right hand side without any extra pieces...

Heh, I wish Id saved my handling solution...might have to remake it!

Here we go, its the same idea but not exactly the same as the last time I did it:

For big ball, did everyone else come up with something similar...accelerating the square?

I love that there are so different ways to approach the problems. Same level as above:

Junkyard cleaned out :)

Left and Right of Junkyard cleaned out (you need to hit back after it finishes the level to see the other side cleared out). Anyone any idea on how to get one underneath to clear that bit out?

Does anyone else remember that freeware multiplayer lego game?

Im strangely starting to crave building an uber high tower whilst watching one of you nutters build an uber pyramid again...
