Re: A fun online physics game

Fantastic Contraption is amazing, my roomate showed it to me, and now I play it all the time in class. It is easily one of the most fun games out there on the web.

Re: A fun online physics game

My hall is obsessed with this game.. we share designs, concepts, off-the-wall inventions, etc with each other all the time. If you haven't checked it out yet, it is definitely worth the addiction that it will no doubt bring.

No, I need to work on it. I meant to show all of them, I didn't know it was limited to that one level.

I had a few chapters to read and a debate case to write... I should have heeded this warning. Alas, now I shall be up later.

Where did you find a $20 pack? All I can find is the $10 to join.
