Quantum Bridge

Professor Qubit is building a quantum computer. He's enlisted the help of a robot to help run the experiments should anything seriously go wrong... like maybe getting entangled with the Win block.

      Ah, looks like we were both working on ghost blocks last night! Very nice usage.

      This is essentially the same mechanism used in my Tiny Jump Demo level but with a horizontal slider rather than a vertical one. The interesting thing is that bot behaves differently on each arm of the slider depending on which draggable is selected. For example, when moving the draggable closest to the Win block, the bot sticks to the non-motor arm as he normally does, but the arm with motor is slippery to him. Yet, if draggable above the motor is used, the the non-motor side becomes slippery too. Note how easily it is for the bot to slip off the motor arm when it's slippery.

      @retrograde They are some interesting behavior of the arms. The non-selected arm is slippery I noticed, as you mention. And the arm with motor seems can pass thought almost everthing no matter its size when it is not seleted. Spins smoothly too.But the thing is I still can't exlpain the reason Why can't make B slip off the motor arm. He stays where he is at and doesn't follow the moving force i feel like.

      This is the trickiest part. Put the bot on the end of the non-motor arm and move it into position. Move the draggable on the motor arm back to make the bot slip off then quickly forward to push him onto the lower platform as he falls. The motor draggable is a bit unresponsive, but it does move, and the bot will slip onto the arm.

      Very interesting and creative. My only problem was that I kept making a mistake whenever I was close to winning (sometimes I accidently pushed the bot off the level, and sometimes I forgot to put the platform in place when I push the ball)... But its great! I loved the scientific look.

      @retrograde Very creative level! Interesting effects of the two arms, the way B slips or sticks on each.
      I struggled to get B to fall onto the low platform. In the end I was able to win differently than I think was your intended path. After B knocked the ball down I kept the low platform turned in against the ball. I left B on the end of the slippery motor arm and very slowly moved it forward (using the draggable on the non-motor arm) toward the sideways pillar blocks where the ball was. As B started to go over the top of the pillar blocks I moved more quickly and he went all the way over and fell down toward the win path. It's not easy to reproduce and I was really a bit lucky the first time.

      Love how you put such anomaly into good use :)
