Algodoo

A floating snake controlled by a circle with cables connected to it. Simply run the scene to make the snake move, or you can delete the orange circle to control it yourself with the green circle.

It's not very pretty, but really I just wanted to see if I could make it work mechanically. I may make another in the future that looks better, but I doubt it.

It's kind of jumpy, since I just used default algodoo chains which are made of boxes, but it was my first try at making something like this, and like I said, I just wanted to see if it'd work.

Runs @60Hz

RUNS VERY SLOWLY ON MY COMPUTER. IF YOU HAVE A POOR QUALITY COMPUTER, EXPECT LAG. IT RUNS AT ABOUT 15% REAL TIME ON MY PC, BUT I ONLY HAVE 2GB OF RAM..... SO MAYBE YOUR COMPUTER WILL DO BETTER.
