Launchball. More addictive than crack. And it's educational.
sciencemuseum.org.uk — Beautifully designed, fantastically addictive, and with ambient music slung in as well. Launchball is a seriously classy interactive from the Science Museum in London. When you've completed existing levels you can build your own and share them with friends. Nice.

- a1532b, on 10/10/2007, -7/+3Here's a mirror...Well, I think it's the same thing.
- magusboy, on 10/10/2007, -1/+6i guess i should have been concentrating in physics lessons at school instead of discussing the relative merits of David Bowie records... this is cool though, proves i still have a few brain cells left!
- johnmorse, on 10/10/2007, -3/+5oooo

- Lapper, on 10/10/2007, -3/+3I've only played two levels and I can already tell this is going to be more addictive than crack.
- Perk, on 10/10/2007, -2/+5You killed it... Service Unavailable.

- ShatteredBlade, on 10/10/2007, -2/+5Physics. Damn this is addicting.
- rtfizzle, on 10/10/2007, -8/+4service unavailable ftw.
- vault, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Finally got past that and now it's ridiculously slow.
- CondawgNG, on 10/10/2007, -2/+1This game is freaking great. Thank you.
I'm gonna try and beat it, then make some levels... Making them will be freaking awesome. - RAEP, on 10/11/2007, -5/+51good job at ***** it up digg.
- solidad, on 10/10/2007, -6/+5awesome game indeed! although I have already played the "service unavailable" game quite a bit. gets a bit boring after awhile...
Any mirrors by chance? - aresgunther, on 10/10/2007, -13/+2mirror : http://tinyurl.com/2v6fnk
- aresgunther, on 10/10/2007, -1/+0dammit, my bad, doesn't seem to work.
- tpv2066, on 10/10/2007, -3/+1game rocks, but now dead. This is gonna be bookmarked.
- SonicBoom1000, on 10/10/2007, -18/+2mirror: http://www.sciencemuseum.org.uk/launchpad/launchba ...
- DolphinGL, on 10/10/2007, -11/+3Gee, I've never seen a flash game described as "addictive" on Digg before. It must be the best flash game ever.
/sarcasm - Sube6491, on 10/11/2007, -3/+30Damn you Digg. Tantalizing me with launchball and ambient music and whatnot, then giving me service unavailabe with no working mirror. Damn you to hell!
/rant - briantech, on 10/10/2007, -4/+1it keeps going unresponsive halfway through doing anything... damn you digg
- echinda, on 10/10/2007, -6/+1OK I'm stuck on switch bounce - any hints?
- echinda, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3Ignore me - I got it about 5 seconds after my edit time ran out on the above.
- tian2992, on 10/10/2007, -3/+3Oh my god, you killed Launchball...
- scottix, on 10/10/2007, -1/+5Connecting................................
- jamima69z, on 10/10/2007, -2/+20I like crack way better than this.
- sleeknerve, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4mirror anyone?
- fyrfyter, on 10/10/2007, -0/+15This reminds me of another great game.....Anyone ever play The Incredible Machine? I miss that game. It was really easy and really fun like this one............Sighh
- ohsin, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2crazy machines..bridge builder.........sigh :-)
- Campog, on 10/10/2007, -8/+7http://duggmirror.com/playable_web_games/Launchbal ...
Worked for me- cleric85, on 10/10/2007, -4/+1Works in Internet explorer
- JudgeMonkey, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4Works for me as well, I'm using firefox.
- rompom7, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Didn't work earlier in the week, but it is working for me now.
- numbnuts, on 10/10/2007, -7/+1LOL "Educational"... here is what I wish they had when I was in school ! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=etBpUcNGVlU --- very cool !
- debuggercll, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4That thing is retarded. Why do you need a 'smart board'? It's just the same thing as a monitor and keyboard, but your arm gets tired faster and there's an annoying shadow in the way.
- andburn1, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Yeah, those are at my school. They're actually pretty sick.
- debuggercll, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4That thing is retarded. Why do you need a 'smart board'? It's just the same thing as a monitor and keyboard, but your arm gets tired faster and there's an annoying shadow in the way.
- syroncoda, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4im playing it and being all happy and then the digg-effect kicks in and damn thing goes offline :P
good to see people enjoying education though. - zeroflake, on 10/17/2007, -3/+30its better than halo 3
- knetch, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4I haven't even touched Halo 3 since I found this!
- jonnyfatman, on 10/10/2007, -1/+8'Educational'!?
One of the little fact-bites just old me that electrical current was measured in Watts!- MakutaBloodlust, on 10/10/2007, -2/+4lol FAIL
nice spot
(current is amperes, watts are power)- OneLess, on 10/10/2007, -1/+2I thought current was in jiggawatts and power was in Hulks?
- MakutaBloodlust, on 10/10/2007, -2/+4lol FAIL
- Naryuu, on 10/10/2007, -0/+9cant play. digg is a website serial killer
- carl25, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4hmm, doesn't work in FF, but it works in my IE
- paulshannon, on 10/10/2007, -1/+12Stuck on "Connecting..." :(
- Arcage, on 10/10/2007, -9/+2Don't know exactly what this game looked like, but sounds like I game I found a while back, loads of fun and addictive...
http://www.armadillorun.com/- SixFeetUnder, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1You have to download/install something . . . thus fails.
- i4ybrid, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3That reminds me of this game at www.downloadmeimnotavirus.com
- malco, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0I loved Armadillo Run, that one was addictive enough for me to pay for it! a rare thing indeed if a bit of a shame. Web based armadillo run would be a great time waster.
- crabbit, on 10/10/2007, -2/+1*cries* I was almost done and you bastards made it die.
- colto, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2But did you REALLY cry?
- JonAce, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3Dugg for later...
- deuxdood, on 10/10/2007, -1/+6Well, neat. Now I'll have to go try some crack just to make sure...
- havesometea, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3Educational and broken apparently.
- xnviews, on 10/10/2007, -3/+2Where are the working mirrors? You'd think after 5 hours SOMETHING would be up. UGH. Come on. I've tried every mirror posted. NOTHING.
- dpknc84, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6There are no mirrors because the game has to contact the science museums website to load data. Since that's overloaded any possible mirror of the flash wouldn't work anyways.
- clickwir, on 10/10/2007, -5/+3Yay, yet another game that doesn't just load and you can play. Noooo it's got to connect to the server and keep scores and all this stupid bull *****. Just let people play damnit.
- Sukael, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3At this point, it seems like the only way this site will come back up is to bury the digg link entirely.
- davep69, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0Fantastic, well done guys
- Andyschism, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1I'm so mad at you guys . . . . . really mad.
- jtrowe, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1Gogo digg effect!
- mrshll, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2well, *****.
thanks, digg ¬¬- jermyang, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0seriously, almost finished the damn game and digg kills it.
- Xionn, on 10/20/2007, -0/+3it's been a whole freaking day... come on...
- briantech, on 10/10/2007, -4/+1Actually wasn't difficult at all. Most of them were insanely easy. Awesome potential, poor execution.
- willit32, on 10/10/2007, -1/+3Err... it's for children!?
- drcongo, on 10/10/2007, -2/+0What willit32 said.
- prehensile, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Make some levels of your own then.... when it's back up ;)
- willit32, on 10/10/2007, -1/+3Err... it's for children!?
