Tbh, there should be a speedrun category, where you have premade bridges for all levels. The only goal would be to complete the levels as fast as possible.
That sounds like a lot of fun actually. I don't know if I'll do the full game, but maybe I'll try a few levels. Unfortunately, I think a lot of levels can be beat with spring cannons (compressed springs that expand once the level starts to launch the cars at mach 7) which makes a lot of levels trivial.
i'd be interesting to see a poly bridge campaign done as fast as possible, still with the budget and materials restrictions still on though, but with the same idea of the pre-made bridges for all the levels.
Like a week ago i tried searching stuff akin to overengineered poly bridge and found nothing. Im glad these channels are popping up and i hope the will of the algorithm is in favour
I can just imagine now: “Honey, why is there a giant hammer behind us?” “I don’t know.” “Oh, whatever. The boat is almost crossed.” “Uhhh.. dear?” “?” “The hammer is moving towards us.” “Oh no.”
Imagine you're driving down the road, the bridge ahead falls into the water and your car just gets lifted by a giant claw and brought to the other side.
This is really entertaining. It's explained in a way that makes me - someone who has never considered being an architect ever - understand everything, but then I look back at the bridge and it's crazy how you made a crane with the limitation of all hydraulics working simultaneously, in a game where things can and do collapse under their own strain, and it's able to lift a minivan.
"I cant wait 5 seconds, so I'll spend 10h making a stupid bridge" is the polybridge equivalent of 30 sec ad that you can skip after 5 sec VS 5 sec ads.

From simple to ultra super mega too complex crane Bridge thing and all of that for a van that just wait for a boat to pass by under the bridge. Amazing video dude, well done indeed and hilarious AF xD
Great video 👌 I am currently building my own 2D version of poly bridge (as a unity learning exercise) but I am at the stage where I find myself playing the game more than finishing the build 😅 this bridge building stuff is addictive 😁
New to the channel but enjoying the videos. These are exactly what I’m looking for in poly bridge. I’m so sick of seeing dangling roads and predictable designs. I absolutely love these weird challenges with no reason to do them besides “it sounded fun”
This is like if you took too long to get going on a green light and somebody behind you gots out of their car and started building a tow truck. I love it.
Reid, built a claw that carries the van to it destination before taking it back to the middle of the bridge and ultimately letting the claw unopen and let the van crash and sink to the bottom of the river. Hi Reid, I just started watching your videos, they are great!
imagine being a van on a bridge deciding to take a little rest when suddenly someone pops in a quarter and _the claw_ comes down to take you for a ride
imagine going through a bridge with a crane attached to it that lifts you to the other side halfway through only because the designer hates 10 second waits for boats

It's odd that Individual Level isn't that. You have to actually build the bridge as fast as possible.

Use a catapult ;)
It's not overengineering
It's being inpatient
ha ha now do that in budget
I don't think I could do it with a claw mechanism but maybe if I move the road underneath the van hahaha
@@ReidCaptain hey, you could make a challenge out of that. complete the level before the boat leaves the visible area but after it enters the game.
@@ReidCaptain you could make a conveyor belt type thing
Mad lad
It is in budget. It's unlimited.
I did it with 45000 dollars just by making a sledgehammer that slams into the van's rear when it stops
Lol imagine waiting for a boat to cross and seeing a big ass sledgehammer in the rear view
Ima do that
I can just imagine now:
“Honey, why is there a giant hammer behind us?”
“I don’t know.”
“Oh, whatever. The boat is almost crossed.”
“Uhhh.. dear?”

“The hammer is moving towards us.”
“Oh no.”

Ah yes. Being horribly impatient, probably spending multiple hours building the bridge. Absolutely loved it.
Earlier: "That's wasting my time."
Many many hours later: "Now it's not time consuming at all."
Being insanely patient to be insanely IMpatient. Love these types of videos, and yours is no exception.
