The Big Stick Truck, a monster truck with huge tyres, in the original Super Contraption, with the old on-screen buttons.
Then / Super Contraption
The same Big Stick Truck save loaded in Universe, on grass under trees.
Now / Universe

Familiar parts. Bigger possibilities.

Your old ideas have room to grow.

The four-wheel tank example from the original game, beside the boxy hills
Then / The tank example
The same tank save loaded in Universe, tracks wrapped around its four wheels
Now / The same save

Four wheels, one long frame, the same save file. It still rolls.

The Orbitor satellite with blue solar panels above the clouds in the original game
Then / Orbitor
The same Orbitor satellite in Universe, thrusters firing among the stars
Now / The same save

Your first satellite still flies. This time with real orbits underneath it.

Rockets fired from a launch frame at a shelf of explosives in the original game
Then / Rockets
The same rocket launcher and target shelf in Universe, a rocket in flight
Now / The same save

Same launcher, same target, same bad idea. Still very satisfying.

The wheeled catapult mid-throw in the original game, the ball flying off the top
Then / Catapult
The same catapult in Universe with a football loaded in its arm
Now / The same save

Springs, a wooden arm and one football. Some ideas never need changing.

These are the original save files, loaded in Universe. Many classic contraptions from the original games have been rebuilt this way.

Land, sea, air, space

How far can your next machine go?

Build for forest trails, open water or the climb to orbit. Boats, submarines, planes, helicopters and balloons are just the beginning.

Your ideas got stranger.

A sprung buggy with a rag-doll rider. A jet on pontoons. You had parts. You had plans.

Will my old contraptions be there?

Is it safe for kids?

There are no private messages between strangers. Kids under 13 need a parent’s OK to share, and everything shared has reporting and moderation.
