Chain Doodle
Build your own Rube Goldberg machine chain reaction using dominoes, balls, bouncy platforms and more!
Submission to G-bits Game Jam.
How to play?
Using the provided pieces, create a chain reaction. It is NOT your goal to just get the starting ball to the end, but rather to create a chain reaction with dominoes, balls, bouncy platforms and more which starts at the starting ball and ends with a piece touching the finish flag.
Made by Jael137 with music by SleepyUFO.
Controls
Use the mouse to place, move and remove objects. The start button will start the chain reaction simulation. The stop button stops the simulation, for quick alterations. The Reset button resets all pieces, for a complete retry of the level.

This was really charming! I love the presentation and music!
Do the doodles do anything other than look adorable? I was hoping they would be an extra prize, or they would animate if you manage to reach them.
Thanks, the doodles are currently only as decoration. But they might play a bigger role if/when I update this game!
Damn nice game took me a while to do the level with 1 trampoline 3 sticks and 1 ball. It was really challenging good job.
Thanks glad you like the game!
So: "Get any black object to the flag" is a little mysterious, because I can put the vertical blocks (or on the level with the bee, the black ball) directly above the flag, hit play, and watch them fall down to the flag, but not win. There must be some more particular condition that I need to satisfy (and I did figure out roughly what that was on the first real level, at least), and I think that needs to be clearer; or you might want to put a "no putting things here" zone in the space above the flags.
The actual goal is to make a chain from the starting ball to the finish flag. You are right, I should have made this more clear. Glad you figured out what to do!
Unfortunately I can't edit the game while the jam is running, but I will try to take care of this after the jam's rating period.
