| A car?!? Hmm, that must have been interesting. So, I went back through and was happy with myself for getting every level to 8 or lower and most under 5 (like DPC scoring ;P). My total bricks used for all 26 levels was 121. So I sent in the score and was totally blown away that you'd have to beat 29 to get in the top 100 all time scores and the top three are at 26 (1 shape per level). My first thought is that some folks are cheating in those scores since only using 1 shape seems like an impossibility for some of those levels (like level 6 on up). Ah well, still fun. |

I suck at this and after getting stuck on level 9 watched the walkthrough and noticed that all the 'used' shapes were being erased - do they not get counted if erased? Thats the only way peeps could get such low shape usage.

I just tried that and it didn't work. I've gotten to 110 total (for the 26 levels). One odd and helpful glitch that works particularly well in level 11, pin or hinge the ball then draw a shape all the way around the platform the ball is on. If the shape is drawn mostly below the platform it will pop out below the platform and take the attached ball with it.
OK, perhaps I should go take pictures instead of playing games for a while ;P |

| Ahh, I hadn't thought of only using one shape. I got down to one on level 4. |

| Made it up to 23, but this one looks tough. Gonna work on it more later. My technique is not lite on shapes. I like to draw big triangle wedges between the ball and a box which fall to the side and push the ball where I want it to go. :) |

| Got it down to 67 with 13 levels using 1 shape and another 5 with 2 shapes. I just can't figure out how the multiple flag levels could be done with just 1. Enough of that for a while. It has been a fun waste of time ;) |

Well I only realized on level 24 that I could put hinges and pins on the ball or square itself. Maybe that's gonna make it a lot easier...
The high scores obviously look to be hacked. The best score for Magic Pen uses -200000 shapes? I don't think so. That makes all the high scores suspect. Who knows what a true low number would be.
