Hi,
From my "Grabbing Springs" sketches I've got inspired for a little game where the only movement is generated by attaching the actor to nearby springs. This project can potentially turn into a full-blown game, but right now it is only a 6-level beta sketch.

As I am in now way talented at music & sound and also not great in graphic & design I would be interested in cooperation. So, if you like the priniciple game idea and think that you would like to help me develop it, just drop me a PM. (I'd also need people to help out with further level design & development of a "story" behind the game.)

Oh, and of course I am generally interested in feedback.

Finally, let me introduce the hero of the game: Smiley  
When you click on the link, he will follow you...

Thanks for the encouragement. I'll let you know when I update.
(Actually, there is a time included already which I want to use for the final score, but I had not yet the time to include it.)

Reminds me alot of gravity hook. Great game though. I got the level 3 and got stuck, I would love to see this as a full blown game  

A bit of physics, one key : a great -but hard- game !

With a bit more of physics and keys you sould test this one :
String theory

Thanks for all the suggestions and comments.
Inspired by Cedrics comment, I've modified the game (just uploaded it) so that it can be played by up to 4 players simultaneously.
It now also gives you a score based on how quickly the level is solved.
I've also added a 7th (even more demanding) level and some startup-interface using the G4P library.

As for the general difficulty of the game: It becomes easier over time   I have to know, bet who played the levels XXX times to make sure they work (and to nudge things around)  
But if people would like to help me designing new levels, just drop me a line (or PM)...

@pwn monkey: I've never heard of a game called "gravity hook", could you point me to the proper place? I don't claim to have "invented" this game though, I think the ideas are pretty basic and might have been used in many other, older games (?).

@yelele_eu: Thanks for the link to "string theory". Haven't heard of that one before either. I like it's simplicity. Very inspiring.

2 things.

1. you have to change to leve 1 before you can start as the slider is set to 0 at the beginning.

ans second, did you change the control? its not controlable by mouse anymore ? and when playing with the space key, it doenst always react when i press the key.

edit: i see, you know about the slider problem

maybe it has something to do if you use mouseClicked, mouseReleased, to activate it... worked much better for me when using the mouse.
maybe you can add it again for the first player only.
no score so far as i wait for the updated version

hehe great, i spend about an hour playing that game.
my score is 187224 i believe its not that bad....

i really like it.
how do you programm the maps? do you hardcode them?
