Can you beat EVERY Polybridge game without Hydraulics? ⁽ᵒʳ ˢᵖʳⁱⁿᵍˢ ᵒʳ ᶠᵒᵘⁿᵈᵃᵗⁱᵒⁿ ᵒʳ ʳᵒᵖᵉ⁾

[@Y2J-Youtube]

FAQ (includes some spoilers, so open at your own risk): How do I see all of the levels? The video linked in the description goes through every single level in every game if you are dying to see more levels, or just confirm that we didn’t lie to you about finishing. Or if you want, join the Poly Bridge discord and ask about them there: discord.gg/4kQEZEZA Why did it take so long to finish the challenge? First of all did you watch the video? There are some stupid hard levels, and also with us being the main drivers behind attempting to finish the challenge, it doesn’t help that we suck at the game. Why didn’t you show [insert level here] in the video? There are no shortage of really cool levels that were done because of this challenge, but we just couldn’t include all of them. We had to prioritize showing levels that meshed with what we were talking about at the time, or the absolute cream of the crop. You weren’t actually that bad at the game in the beginning were you? We absolutely were. Most of what it means to “get good” in Poly Bridge is just accumulating knowledge and strategies of how to tackle certain types of levels, which we now have in abundance. We still are not incredibly talented or anything, but we could easily fly through a lot of the early levels that gave us trouble at the start. When did the last level actually get finished? Actually both Week 84 and RTA 13 were both finished during the production of the video! Up until pretty much the last second, levels were still being worked on and completed. Aren’t there more than 100 weekly levels in PB2? Yes, but actually no. There are 100 unique weekly levels, but they are cycled through continuously so there are fresh leaderboards. So weekly 127 is an identical level to weekly 27, but will have a separate leaderboard. But there’s also weeklies in PB3 right? Why weren’t they included? There are weeklies in PB3, but there’s a couple reasons they weren’t added to the challenge. For one, they were not made by the devs, but workshop levels selected to be the weekly for that week. But maybe more importantly, a new weekly is still coming out every week, so it’d be impossible to actually claim to be finished in this video since there would immediately be a level we hadn’t tackled yet. Might be a fun challenge if you want to give it a go ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ If you know so much about the game, why did you get the timeline wrong? The video made way more sense in chronological order for like 95% of it, but there were a couple moments that would have really messed with the flow of the video had we gone in order of what actually happened. The biggest thing we slid around was the release of the Bonus Worlds, but we figured it was better to have momentum with the narrative than be 100% accurate to the timeline.

Good luck RWSing week 50 in pb3 :) I swear this was unin-tensional

you guys got a list of music used in the video?

[@hexturne]

as a hydraulic from poly bridge 3, i was very upset at his statement.

[@ultimaxkom8728]

This is a blatant discrimination against hydraulic-kind!

[@ugaboga9829]

this video in a nutshell: "this level is IMPOSIBLE! UNBEATABLE! NO MERE HUMAN CAN BEAT THIS LEVEL. IT WOULD TAKE A GOD A SEMINGLY INFINITE AMOUNT OF TIME TO EVEN BEAT THIS LEVEL WITH BREAKING THE BRIDGE AND GOING 65% OVER BUDGET... But then a player named fluffy gigaplex beat the level by making a small flippy dingle ramp on the bus."

[@krazykaid]

It makes it so suspenseful!

[@lighter412]

Thx bro, really save me time

[@jc_art_]

Basically theyre emphasizing how crushing ignorance can be. 'If only they knew this one buggy mechanic before hand, they could have beaten the level rather easily'. When the solution is outside your entire knowledge of what can even be done, its impossible, to you.

[@thewingedporpoise]

this is also how all summoning salt videos work

[@Temporary_yesyes]

@@jc_art_ its not ignorance its that no one knows the tech required and it was discovered as a way to do rws

[@Temporary_yesyes]

my favorite part of 7-7 rws is that its better on mac, on windows the stress is 99.8% but on mac its 99.1%

[@Y2J-Youtube]

We fixed it since but we had a 6-16 solve a while back that was mac exclusive.

Floating point inconsistency across platforms even though there's an IEEE standard moment

[@TheReaverOfDarkness]

I know almost nothing about the specifics, but my general experience says I'd trust the mac numbers over the PC numbers, just because macs have historically been built more for rendering capabilities while PCs have been focused on interfacing. But then that's probably changed over the years, what do I know.

wow, minecat is a literal hero. literally closed most of the levels, when others had gotten bored of testing and shaving down budget, there he was. and then, like a dark horse, comes in with the exact bug we need to complete the challenge. idk this person at all but, i would trust them with my life.

Josh: "You shouldn't be allowed to 360 no-scope people in Poly Bridge, that's like..." Jeremy: "I don't know that this is what that's doing but-" *_"Do you see a scope?"_* "I don't-" *_"WAS THERE A 360??"_* (21:19) Thank you so much, Josh, Jeremy, and the whole PB community for bringing this challenge to life. This has been a phenomenal journey watching and partaking in, and is probably one of the most extensively, thoroughly completed challenges in PB history. Only four names were mentioned for 7-07 RWS, but as said, there were so, _SO_ many more people who worked on just increasing the pool of attempts into the thousands, along with I believe five different designs, two of which were on the right track; mine only happened to be the most developed one... I literally got it to basically 95% done without unbreakable in under half an hour. ;w; I don't think this is an exhaustive list, but from what I can recall I also want to shoutout Y2J themselves, SomeFakeGamer, Ivory, TonyZ1234, Cookieblues, Zen, LazyComet, MOD, and permanentnono for getting my design to work. Such a fantastic documentary overall. You guys smashed it.

21:02 is fascinating to me. It’s mesmerizing, it’s almost megalophobia-inducing, like a giant playing with toy cars. I can’t explain it but I’m entirely captivated by it. It reminds me of a nightmare I had when I was little that I forgot about entirely until now, where I was crossing a canal (I think I was on my bicycle but could also have been on foot) and the bridge was sort of like that, just a big gap with a hanging platform in the middle that you waited for and it took you across to the other side, but there were no barriers or safeguards and it didn’t wait for you to get on, so it started leaving the side I was on as I was trying to get on (or off?) the platform and then I think I made it on but it was swaying really badly and I’m not sure if I fell in but I think I might have.

[@Y2J-Youtube]

Watch some more arglin content. All of their stuff is crazy

Been watching this series since almost the very beginning. This video nearly brought a tear to my eye. Congrats to everyone involved, and especially to you, Y2J, for being the creator of this incredible 4-year long project!

Glad to hear of palfly and arglin, good to hear they're doing well, well arglin I played a good amount of Fantastic contraption with, well I was bad at that too watching these solves remind me a ton of playing that like quite a few years ago, good folk. Thanks for the video! I know since fantastic contraption has no locking points but indestructible parts the build pattern is quite different, and mechanical locks for instance is like the bread and butter of that game and it is a ton of fun to see even though I suck at poly bridge aswell lol.

[@ArglinPB]

Hi Jno!! Happy to hear from a familiar name.

I have absolutely no connection to polybridge, besides watching that one vinesauce clip where vinny beats a level by pure luck and a glitch, so getting recommended this video makes me feel like this should absolutely blow up.

[@davidlewis2171]

Crazy huge accomplishment! I remember playing PB3 around launch, and there were so many levels that I saw a lot of these names, especially Minecxt, at the top of the leaderboards. I think there was a tiny period of time I had beaten them, but it didn't last long lol

Was super cool to see your guys' skills improve throughout the challenge. From "We just suck too much" at the start, to pulling off the same wacky lever mechanisms as the high-skill players

[@mr.creeper6836]

It was really funny watching the progress just constantly getting reset due to the extra levels and rule changes

Amazing video, what a crazy epic achievement you guys managed with getting this video together. Congrats! Catapults are still my favourite thing to see in PB though, don't think I'll ever manage to get to that skill level myself though hah! You guys stumbling on the Flip Canon was super amazing to see. The crazy stuff that Arglin does with their hydraulic-less mechanisms is just insanity personified! I can't even keep track of what the heck is happening with those mechanisms... The 6-X levels are just amazing guys. I can't believe how awesome this video is really. Seriously well done and really well edited too. Great work!

[@Y2J-Youtube]

Catapults are based

Don't forget the lesson that putting off your problems by piling more onto your own plate is a valuable tool.

The "catapults" you discussed around 15:00 are actually trebuchets, which are much cooler

I have cranked hundreds of hours into vehicle building games and automation games and have a complex understanding of resource management movement and gear systems and poly bridge has remained the one game that makes my brain feel like it's been bludgeoned several times trying to understand it
