Puzzle, logic game, mirrors, lasers... [Hubie]

Post by hitman247 »

Hey, I've been torturing myself but I can't remember the name of this old puzzle game.

It is level based and there were several elements in it like fans, lasers, mirrors, magnets, fire, wood, vines, balloons and maybe more.

You had to control a little brown "thing" not sure if person or something else who could blow the balloons and rotate the mirrors etc.

I even remember some sounds but not the name :cry:

PLEASE HELP!

Sounds like Dweep, except the thing isn't brown but purple.

Sorry guys, but neither is the one. I think that the game is much older than these. Maybe something beginning with R or V, but I'm not sure.

There were also some sort of minecarts in it which could transport wood and other stuff. You could burn wood to get coal I think, and there were vines which could also be burned. Then lasers and mirrors and fans and balloons were also part of some levels. The graphics were somewhat like in Supaplex, but not as colorful.

I'm really trying to list the main features which I remember, but my memory is awfully blurry when it comes to this game. I found it once in some sort of a collection I think.

Reading the title, I thought Incredible Machine as well, but the rest of the description does not really fit the game.
