Bird’s Nest

This level is going to have a woodlands theme with a large tree taking up the right edge of the screen. The tree trunk will act as a back edge to allow player to bounce items back onto the play field. Coming from the background will be a large branch near the top of the tree passing through the Plane Of Play, where there will be a minimal landing area consisting of several dots. Preferably on a 20 inch monitor this level will match a 1 to 1 scale with a real tree cross section, this will provide the feeling of being near the top of a large tree.

Occasionally a Robin will swoop through and interfere with objects in flight. There will being a variety of woodland distractions in the background, simple stuff like flowing leaves and animals to the occasional bigfoot sighting. This should be a highly detailed and more difficult level.

Throwables

The player will have a variety of smallish branches and twigs of minimal value to ‘build a nest’ with. There will also be several eggs with disproportionately high weight, that are likely to crash through a poorly built nest. The eggs will also have a higher value.

Landing Area

With be 3 to 5 dots that are positioned such that one could precariously balance the Throwable twigs between them. There is also a backup wall to make the level slightly easier.

In The Face

This level will be the side view of some guy holding his mouth open and head tilted upward. The nose should be at such an angle that the food is likely to roll from it to clear off the level. The guys head should bob back and forth slowly to add a small amount of uncertainty. This should be an easier level.

Throwables

Various food items, jello, Cupcakes, whatever… A mix of shapes varying rigid vs soft body as appropriate.

Landing Area

Get the food in the mouth. There should be plenty of space to accommodate all the food, since his cheeks will be opaque, the player will not be able to see the final resting place of the food,

Rope Bridge

This is going to be a very simple, and minimalistic level that will be moderately difficult. You will be given a piece of rope with weights on the ends and will be expected to use this to hold up a number of other Throwable items.

Throwables

The main item to be concerned about is a soft bodied length of rope that is about 10cm long with weighted ends, it is just large enough to span the landing area. There could also be some dense items to make keep the rope suspended more difficult. There should be at least a few circular items which are to be caught by the bridge the player contructs

Landing Area

The landing area is two 1 cm circles 6 to 8 cm apart. Ideally the weight rope will dangle the weight of either end.
