Wasn't this out in German but called something else?

Weird that you wait for one Incredible Machine style game and two come are around. The other is Mechanic Master, it looks better but this should tie me over.

Yes, it does have English. You really wouldn't be able to play it very well if it didn't because the Professor tells you what needs to happen in the puzzle for you to solve it.


I'm officially addicted to this game. THIS is how to use the touchscreen without making it seem like a gimmick or just tacked-on or forced. This basically IS Incredible Machine. As you play through it, more gadgets become available to use, so don't judge it by the first few puzzles. I've played it for over an hour now and I'm at only 15% into the puzzles. Me likey very much! it's pretty much exactly what I envisioned a TIM game for the DS to be. WOOT!

I like it, it is a bit hard to grab some parts, but whatever, I love this and will like mechanic master hopefully aswell. (woot !)

EDIT: I'm having trouble with the experiment in which I only got a wall and should have a ballon pop over a bellow to be able to have a bowling ball roll down and move a crate, any ideas ?

This game is really fun. I don't like the action experiments very much, though; I would've been happy with just the puzzles.


That being said, for as much as I call people dumbasses on this forum, I can't get past Experiment 10 in Puzzle Mode, where you have to move the domino to extinguish the candle and knock the weight into the green zone...I just can't figure out how to get the weight in there (I always knock it the other way and can't figure out how to knock it to the left).

The game is really fun and addicting. I'm at Puzzle mode 75, while the earlier puzzles can be solved in creative ways, the later ones have obvious "right answer." (But you can still manage to save a couple pieces.)

Some stages are badly designed, even if you get the concept nailed, one part placed one pixel off can cause your system to miserably fail. (And moving it by a single pixel solves the system.)

I haven't tried Action mode yet, but I assume there'll be about 50 levels in action mode. (If Puzzle mode goes up to 100)

I wish there'll be harder levels later on, as current chapter is still easy.

  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's always worth a shot
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @The Real Jdbye, I considered that, but i'll have to wait until i can get the eu version in the mail lol
  • I @ I-need-help-with-wup-wiiu:
    i need help with nusspli failed downloads, can someone respond to my thread? pretty please:wub:
