strategy/puzzle game...1996/97 ?

Post by cucumber »

hello all!
i was playing on my computer today, when i suddenly had a flashback of a game a played quite some time ago (i think around 1996 1997 -give or take a few years) - and now i really want to play it.

The genre I would say is strategy/puzzle...
the main aim of the game is to arrange pieces, such as cogs, pulleys, ramps, rubber bands, springs and a variety of little gadgets to make the system? machine unit? work....

i think the aim was to get a ball(?) from point A to point B through the 'machine'....

i think when you press 'start' or 'ready' a bicycle starts (not quite sure if it was a bicycle...)..which in turn turns on the whole machine....

the graphics were 2D..though rather good (i don't DOS game - early windows probably, though i could be wrong)...and i remember the background was green/blue....(maybe that was custom choice?)

sorry if the description is a bit vague..but thats the best i can remember...i was i think about 9 or so when i played it...

thank you very much!!!
any help would be of great help :)
