From Patrick Smith of VectorPark comes this incredibly mesmerizing Flash game of physics and balance. Levers is also an excellent example of a composition that balances art with technology.
Since part of the game is in the discovery, I won't say much more than that. I found myself in a peaceful state of being as I played due to the effective use of sound effects that serve to enhance the experience. The physics implementation in this game is especially amazing.
Once the giant head comes, what do you do? I have more objects than places to hang them.
I think you may have gotten farther than I have with it. =)
melt the snowman with the rock and put the hat on top of the whole thing (that lil circle at top)
ive lost the little jelly fish thing wot do i do??
this game was pretty easy, except for the final part... im wondering if theres anything to do after you get the little shining sun in the circle at the top....... anyway for you's that are stuck the last thing should be......
On the left side -> the big head, squid, b. ball
On the Right Side-> bird house, submarine, rock, and bucket of water with a tiny bit of water takin out so its almost full
On the top -> hat
I finally beat it;they should get rid of those @%*@^#$ birds!
The Point of the game is to keep everything out of the water. Good luck.
P.S. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. To heck with that Happy Holiday Crap!
Thanks, Patrick! =)
Is there anything else to do after you put the hat on the top of it?
Because when you put the hat, some king of sun thing appears on the circle of the top...
Do you think that sun thing means you've won the game? It might.
left: head + rock
right: all else
mm. how long does it take for the snowman to melt?
How do you melt the snow man?
well i beat it! only with one clue help and that was to put the hat on top! i had evrything leveled and then this extra hat! well it was fun! YAY FOR ME
just hold the snowman next to the rock when its hanging to melt it.
we did it we're awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What is that little thing that sometimes appears in the bucket of water
This game is hard and fun im stuck on it
Its not a rock - its a sponge.
I won by putting the head and the bucket on the left and all else on the other side. The damn birds kept getting in the way, so I leveled out the bucket.
i did it in ten minutes
i did it in 9 1/2 minutes!!! oooh
How do you beat it step by step?
It's a rock, a volcanic rock.
what is the green thing that is sometimes in the tank of water?
ive gotten the heads eyes open but now im stuck...
this game is so cool Thanks jay
I've got all the items and the hat on the very top. I can't get it to balance for the life of me, what do I do??
What a weird game.
stupid birds!!!!!!!!!!
This should be a screensaver of some sort. plus it's fun. I managed to make it so the birds were nothing to worry about.
Kind of disappointing when you beat it. It's so difficult to get there, and then there's no special ending. :/
I did it!!! W00T i had head and cup on one side and everything else on the other W00T im brilliant
hey this is a kool site
IM STUCK ON THE STUPID HEAD. This game is fun. But.... REALLY hard..Ive only beaten it once...lol
Anyone know what to do??? Because im putting the Bucket of water and the head only on the left side and everything else on the right and its not working.
And that squid is getting annoying
I give up ugh..
You can drain the bucket of water to make less weight by putting your arrow on the spout part.
I pulled the water tank out of water and a weired shape was in it, Oh well beat it none the less fun game :)
you can drown the birds one at a time by dropping the birdhouse in the water when one is inside
Rodney, this isn't working for me. Just drop the birdhouse in? Because I drop it in, take it out and that damned bird flies right back again!
to complete this game put the head and the water tank on one side and everything else on the other side, now just keep letting water out until it balances
Help with the birds!!!
You people aren't being very smart that "little green thing" in the bucket is a buddist man!
Ha ha! I won! You can kill the birds? Wish i new that before... Oh well, still did it!
haha cool game. I only got till one huge rock fell out of the sky then I couldn't get it balanced so I gave up.
I suspect there is no unique solution, since I solved it just by fooling around. And it is indeed possible to lose objects, by flinging them out of the frame!
you can also melt the snowman just by leaving him in the water...suddenly he was just a head!
when the circle at the top shows the sun thing does that mean you've done it???
Its not a rock its a sponge!! Thats why its dry when hanging and turns dark in the water, I beat it with the sponge and the head on one side (but I hate those birds)
ugh... STUPID BIRDS!!!!!
it's definitely not a sponge. have you ever seen a sponge melt a snowman? nope... but rocks get warmer & warmer with friction, which is why the rock turns colors after you either move your mouse or click it quickly... which then is why you can melt the snowman with it.
It's a sponge. Clicking it does nothing, if you just hang it it will change colors as it is drying. It doesn't melt the snowman, it absorbs the water (snow).
Want to give those birds a taste of their own medicine? Drop everything except one hanger. Only one bird can perch on each side of a hangar, so one bird will be left flapping in the air with no place to land.
i beat it without killing the birds with the head and bucket on one side and everything else on the other
how to kill birds
I FINALLY BEAT THIS GAME!
Oh gosh I had a tantrum because I could NOT figure out what to do. All I did was make the rock thing a little higher. Oh man am I happy now.
It's a volcanic rock, that's why it makes a sound when heating up and sizzles when it hits the water.
I'm out of hooks! I've got the head, but not enough places to hang everything. Did I do something wrong?
ah! nevermind. neat!
when the hat is on the thing at the top,when you take it off theres something on top of it!
What could it be?
So when you beat the game that thing starts spinning.....cause if so, im amazing...(took me like a whole hour though)
i think the birds help they got me the snowman.
okay im wrong those birds drive me $&#$ing nuts!!!!!!!!
On the left side, use a SHORT hanger.
Then put the head on one end of it.
On the other end, place another short hanger.
On the 2 free ends of the second short hanger, put on the full bucket and the rock.
On the right side, put up a long hanger. You should have 2 levers left.
Pair up the bowling ball with the squid on one hanger.
Put the birdhouse with the sub on the other.
Congratulations. Your prize is seeing a sun appear at the top and the eyes on the head light up. :)
beautiful =]
oh boy!!! i got it yayayayayayayayayayayayay!!!!
that's very exciting...whew...took me a while tho...lol
how long does it take to drown the birds
another fun thing is to get a bird to almost land on a hanger then the hanger around and the bird will follow it:p
This is one of the biggest digital wastes of time ever. It is, however very ammusing!

If it does not work try moving the birds.
COOL!!
I loved this game! It took two hours but I got it.There is this secret I found. If you drop everything into the water then put everything back on, the face of the snowman apears on the top where you put the hat. spooky.
hmmmmph;
finally did it.
without cheatng too.
after finishing i read the spoilers...
half of them are wrong.
WRONG WRONG WRONG!
HAHAHA! Those evil birds actually helped me. According to the spoilers I was completely wrong, but I was able to get it blanaced, and having 2 birds on one side, 1 on other actually made me win. Yay, cheating.
haha:]] i finally beat it. grrrr. i didnt know what spoilers were. and i wish i knew. but i wanted to make those birds die! they were bugging me.
but yayy:]] i beat it.
how do you play it?!
the bowling ball keeps falling in the water!lol!
Its so hard, ive got to the end but the scales go everywhere, can anyone help me!?
Stupid birds....
Amazing game!
um... all I must say is that... YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT THE GREEN THING IN THE BUCKET IS DO YOU?!WELL ITS A You.F.O!!! *calming down as if nothing happend* If you get to play park there are some trees with an odd shape and this is the same shape as the one in the bucket it is just different in colour.THANKYOU!!!
This game is cool it's really hard though. Those stupid birds are really annoying.
cool game. i like it. and i only used one cheat to put the hat on top.
This game wasted about twenty minutes of my time... IT WAS THE MOST PRODUCTIVE 20 MINS I HAVE EVER SPENT PLAYIN A GAME!!! IT WAS AWSSOME. i hope they make much more types of these games.. the only part that annoyed me the most were the birds and the sponge cuz i couldnt get the sponge to dry because of the bird on one side and so i droped everyting to balance the sponge. too much words? Sorry
Hey did anyone else got the Buddah looking thing in the bucket thing???
What does the squid do?
I finally beat it
I would have beaten it much sooner if the dang birds didn't fly off the one side a single second before I would have accomplished the feat. It happened a handful of times too
Whoops! Sorry, I submitted this game and I just realized it was already reviewed. I must have mispelled "Levers" on Google. My bad!
i must be really dumb because i cant get past the part when u get the birdhouse. nothing seems to balance!!!! HELP!
wait i figured it out nevermind
At the end it should look like the following-left-
Mediumish-smallish hanger and on the hanger the rock and the head the right should look like this small hanger and on it water and large hanger on the 2 medium hanger the medium hanger on the right should have the squid and the sub the hanger on the left should have bowling ball and the birdhouse no the big rock you hold while putting on the snowman until it melts and its hat is left then you take the hat anf put it on the circle at the top then has the colourful circles or the dial NOT AN THE ROCK OR THE HEAD!! The water should be full or pretty much full.
put the head and the FULL bucket on one side, other stuff on the other. Birds wont be a problem.
my thing is all full! i only have one thing left in the water and i cant put that anywhere please help me or just say i did a glitch please answer!!!!
I got the squid in the bucket of water
Tip:the water has to be at a certain level!
Yes i beat the game!! If your stuck in the end the squid should be able to go in the bucket of water but the water has to be at a certain level! Then you have to make everything stay out of the water for about 10 seconds and then the sun at the top will turn black and that means you have completed the game!!!!
I think that when the snow man appears, you have to quickly press the snowman, and you beat the game. The hat has to still be on though whilst you do it.
omg this is the wierdest game and once the first object that falls out of the sky, click it fast while its falling and you win. its a funny glitch
i sometimes have sth appear in the water bucket (like a poop or sth) what's that?
i found a bug
right click then click on back once you finish and the last object to appear diappears so if you keep doing it you get flying objects!!!
ah, and btw, the "rock" i think is a sponge
I sat there for five minutes after I won trying to work out what happens next...
When do you get the rock? And what do you do with the squid thing?
i beat it in like 3 mins its just the end that is hard you need to just keep the birds in the right place and pray they dont move and for the water if you move the mouse to the nozzle it drains the water
found a glitch if you grab an item and through it to the left you hear a splash and you cant get it back
Hah. It took me like twice as long as it should have to figure out the first part---I didn't know you could take the water out or the cooler! ^_^; I feel dumb.
The large rock heats up again after cooling off in the water. Thus it has an internal energy source which implies that it is RADIOACTIVE (not necessarily volcanic)! You can also hear geiger-counter clicking sound effects.
It's tough to be a science teacher these days.
And yes you can use it to melt the snow man.
those birds got so ANNOYING
I beat it! O.K. I could not melt the snowman fast at all then I found out you can hold the big (rock/sponge/volcanic-rock/whatever-else-it-could-be?) out of the water for about 30 seconds until it turns yellowish orange and then put it by the snowman it melts him in like 10 seconds then! i dont think its a spong i thing its a couch cushin*!!!!!!! HI CADEN!!:)
how do i melt the snowman, when do i get the "rock" and where do i put the squid thing?
"I got the squid in the bucket of water
Tip:the water has to be at a certain level!"
Posted by: Natasha
can you give me more tips natasha, ?
i dont have enough hooks for everything when i get to the head. what do i do?
how do i get the squid in the bucket?
AHEM. The reason why the clock turns into the snowman's head, is because you have to put the last UNUSED object on top of the snowman's head. THE HAT.
BTW, this walkthrough doesn't say anything about the squid until the very end. When do you actually get the squid? Also, it says to use the rock to melt the snowman, what it doesn't say is that you have to weight the mobile with the rock so that the snowman dips WAY down into the water in order to melt him. And it does not explain that you get the hat by melting the snowman.
yo that was a wicked game. took me 4 ever to figure out the hat thing!!!!!!
I completed it without using any of these spoilers (my son showed me this after id completed it) it took me three days (i think it's a hot rock, not a sponge or water would drip out of it!).
I won!!
o.k if anyone is wondering about what that green thing in the bucket is...its a U.F.O. go onto vectorpark when you cut down the trees there is one exactly the same only the one on this is green and the one in vectorpark is grey....must be a new kind of submariney U.F.O thing.
I might be able to explain part of the recent influx of levers players: I've been teaching an Australian grade 6 class about simple machines and used this game to supplement it. They continue to play it in their own time, and I think it's catching on (I've seen some grade 7's and even a teacher's aide playing as well!)
Hey all, once you balance it the GAME IS NOT OVER. there is a way to disappear all object by doing various things. THE APPLAUSE IS NOT THE END.
[Edit: Hmm. Sounds fishy to me. How about some proof or an example, or a screenshot? -Jay]
What a cool game! I think there are several ways to beat it though. Some people have the water and the head on one side, some people have put a squid in the bucket, some have the head and rock (come on people, it's not a sponge-it sizzles when it gets wet). But anyway, I had to use the walkthrough-stupid birds!
Definately a very creative and fun game...great challenge. :)
O.k., I don't understand this game. I flew through it until the last stage, then I used the walkthrough. But I don't see at all how to put the squid in the bucket. I did find, though, that when the squid was in the water, it made noise continuously. Maybe only when it was attached to a hanger when I put it in the water. I also didn't see any way to kill the birds. When one was in the birdhouse I tried dunking, dropping, dropping multiple times, leaving them in the water- nothing worked. Maybe these were glitches that got fixed. I definitely don't see any way to make anything disappear after the scale goes to a "sun" and the head's eyes open. I don't understand why the game was "finished" when I got the balance of items it wanted, but the arms weren't really level, and it didn't have anything to do with the birds, they were flying around like usual. The game doesn't seem finished somehow.
what do i do with the squid thing!plz give an answer a 6th grader would understand.
where do i get the rock to melt the snowman...after the snowman all i get is a squid...no rock! Please Help!
Be aware that you can "shoo" birds with your cursor.
OK people. Stop lying!
You cannot put the squid in the bucket
(and there's no need to, even if you could)
You cannot kill the birds, they're part of the challenge.
and
the eyes opening/sun appearing is the end. Check out Vectorpark's other stuff, they all end ambiguously. They're really more art than 'games'.
How do you hook the bird box onto the same hook as the sub???
Interesting thing: After you beat the game, if you take the hat off the sun and hang it back on the hooks it makes things lighter instead of heavier. It makes everything on that side of the hook weightless. And it looks like part of the hat stays on the sun. I'm not sure what the point of this is but whatever. It's a pointless game anyway.
Awesome game!
I'm gonna use it with my high school science students as a reward after they finish some of their more hardcore work on physics!
Game is ok. I could've enjoyed it much more if there were no birds. They are seriously annoying and sucked the fun out of it for me :(
I have put first bowling ball on hanger and it won't give me any more items. Help me
You have to put the hat on TOP of the round circle that times you... the walkthrough isn't clear.
The sun appearing in the timer and the statue head's eyes opening IS the end of the game, but you can still try different ways of balancing them. Also hanging the hat on one side of the hook makes that side weight less (after the sun has appeared)
How do you do Step 10, please?
Also, for Step 6, does the birdhouse go on the same hook or hanger as the sub?
For some reason, I cannot pick up the hooks. Anyone have a cure?
In the water tank, I got a little green dude. Also, I got the giant head. Once I finally balanced everything out, a sun appeared and the head glows. NOW WHAT?
I love this game. It is very well-done.
What the...??? I got this squiddy thingy... like a squid/octopus... idk whats happening! I got the... OMG WHAT IS THAT GUY DOING IN THE BUCKET? THAT BUDDHIST GUY? AAAAAAH!
The spoilers didnt work for me!
I worked out another way and, at the end I had-
On the right side-
1. Tiny hanger
2. Cup (full) on left of hanger
3. Large hanger on right of hanger
4. Tiny hanger on left of hanger
5. Sponge on right of hanger
6. Sub on left of tiny hanger
7. Squid on right of tiny hanger
On the left side-
1. Medium hanger
2. Head on left of hanger
3. Large hanger on right of hanger
4. Birdhouse on left of hanger
5. Bowling ball on right of hanger
If this doesn't work, use common sense and work out which side is heavier, then add or take away different things! x
Just as a reminder, the squid does NOT go in the bucket, the birds can NOT be killed, and the hat actually DOES make whatever side it's on weigh less after you finish the game. Also, it's a ROCK, people, not a sponge. I'm not sure why anyone is still debating this. I mean, how often does a sponge sizzle and darken when it's dropped into water? Even better, how much do you think sponges weigh, realistically? Not as much as the ROCK weighs, that's for sure.
Um... there isn't a head or a sponge. I'm playing this on the vectorpark website and neither of those dropped down.
Wait what? After level "11" in the walkthrough I get the rock.
And- yay! I did it!
