Algodoo

Poor felix!


UPDATE

I grabbed my attack helicopter and chased the motorcycle and eventually fired a missile at it and the bike completely exploded and I think Felix might have been a little hurt.

Very cool!

I have serious sensory issues so I can't go to firework shows like most people, so I'm stuck at home myself trying to make similar stuff in Algodoo. xD

(actually wait I could just wear noise cancelling headphones... )

Nonetheless, happy birthday America! 🇺🇸

2: I guess I hadn't considered that

I guess I'll probably make my own Algodoo fireworks show in private?

3: Relatable

Hmm... you're right!

QUOTE: You are one of the all time great Algodoo scene makers.

Wait, do you really think so? O_O

I always kind of thought I was just an average user like anybody else-

Thank you...!


I will say though that I actually have a lot more scenes than it appears -- most of them are either not uploaded (I only upload scenes I'm somewhat confident about) or I have deleted them

Small note about the no motor thing (the Starfish Inertia Drive) -- the reason it flops around is because the back part is allowed to rotate -- try gluing that part to the background and it should work a bit better.

What on earth?

Nevermind, I figured it out! The bottom circle has a MaterialVelocity of -6, so that's how it drives the chain.

You had me stumped!

My memory of 2021 Algodoo is somewhat fuzzy but I remember it being somewhat similar to today -- maybe with a bit more BFDI in place of Numberblocks scenes though.


Also quote: "There is just one little detail that you missed: The bottom circle also has a motor that drives the circle in the opposite direction from the material velocity. It's mainly just to confuse people!"

I noticed it I just forgot to comment about it -- sorry


But yeah. Another important thing is, if I remember correctly, there used to be a lot more spam on Algobox -- in the past the 3-scene-per-day limit was only enforced via rules -- you *could* upload as many scenes as you want, you'd just get in trouble. Nowadays it physically won't let you upload more than 3 a day.


I was actually guilty of uploading 4 scenes a day once -- I had accidentally reuploaded one of my earliest scenes several times when I first shared it.

I'm not sure if this was before or after 2021 though. I vaguely remember a few users constantly uploading the same scene (with minor differences) 3 times a day though in the past, potentially for weeks on end.

Also in 2021 I was quite self-centered and didn't pay much attention to the rest of Algobox so that's probably a lot of why I don't remember '21 Doobox very well

(I'm so glad I'm not like that anymore >-<)

Can I put him in a cozy room full of other moths and lamps and maybe a fluffy blanket and some flowers?

They are

Quote: Let's see if we can get this scene to be the lowest rating on Algobox.

No problem!

QUOTE: are YOU going to check the tens of thousands of scene ratings in the Algobox archive in order to compare them to your scene rating?

It's actually quite simple -- just visit the last page of the Popular tab.

QUOTE: Im not very good with full body drawings (pretty obvious) so it looks a little.. bad.. eh, all of my drawings look bad so its whatever

Hey, we all start somewhere, and for what it's worth I really like the drawing.

I'm a professional artist (a lot of my possessions I use nowadays were bought with art money) but I started off making far worse stuff -- I promise.
Practice really does make progress, and even if you're not confident in your drawings, other people will like them -- and they will improve with time regardless.

And, for what it's worth, I really like this.
