Awesome little game. Hours and hours of fun.

Armadillo Run

Sweet. I ended up at $424 on the demo. That's pretty cool.

I've had above $600 a few times.

Some people on another forum I visit that have had above $720.

I bought the game. If anyone else here does, it'd be neat to see the levels that are made.

I like these games. It is a lot like The Incredible Machine series from years ago.

Thats pretty good

I'm stuck at 540. Awesome game!

Stuck at 492

Edit 594

I just bought it too!

Ok someone help me with level 8

Here. Quite simple, really.

Damn, I can't buy it now. Server was taken down for a couple of days.

Hmmm doesn't seem to let me open it - just asks for my registration code and when I enter it theres a blank screen.

I didn't have any problems opening it. Did you rename the file to the proper name?

Stig

Oops

I didn't realise it had to replace the original file. I thought I could just open it.

Wow that is simple! I was waaaaaay over-complicating it. Thanks!

The sites been fine for me last night and today. Maybe try again?

The site is there, but you can't buy it at the moment.

Scheduled server maintenance - 1st May 2006
Armadillo Run will be unavailable to buy for the next couple of days while the web server is upgraded. Level and solution uploads will also be offline.

Ah ok, sorry for any confusion caused!

Its the only game like that that I've felt compelled to purchase so its worth waiting a couple of days for.

$700 on the demo? That's amazing to the point of incredulity. You only get a total of 1250 or something to begin with. I got to $586. Level 6, "Void 2" is the obvious candidate for optimization (I currently have $72 left of $250).

Currently, I have:

$40
$132
$92
$66
$184
$72

I am certain that my level 5 is optimal. I think it should be possible to do level 4 with $80 remaining, but I can't get the balance right. Still, that's only another $14. How are people making $700?

We should have an empeg collaboration on the demo. Take the best design for each level and see where we end up.

3…$100
4…$70
5…$192
6…$144

Just shows how differently people must see solutions. I'm way off Ricin's scores

The problem with the demo is that you can't share stuff. If you take a screenshot and show it it's only a representation. The physics change if you don't get pixel-perfect placing. ie. You wouldn't be able to replicate someone's design.

The way the physics works is pretty neat. Must have taken an age to create.

I got 188 and used one item, once. Not sure how 190 is acheived. Maybe a different item?

Hmmm I did that but cannot get it to 190 - only 188. ??
