Technically, I don't think this is new. It's simply the same kind of force used in paddles, but I've never seen it done like that.

Even if you remove the non-tensioned cloth, It still does the same.

What is happening is the cloth squishes the 3 metal bars together and the middle one's node is going "aah! aah! gotta get out of here!" which creates the force.

Not new, but new design I think. Pretty cool!

It's not new, but it just uses cloth instead of metal bars. I did it once on accident a while ago.

Edit: My post made no sense and Drago already explained it.

I uploaded a modification of that force. Is it the same thing powering it? If so I'd say it's just the bar in the middle trying to get out causing the force and the clothe is just holding the two outter bars together, not really causing the force

Ha, I just watched the rest of it and it looks like the aliens are beating the crap out of eachother more than anything else. (And they're capable of interstellar travel?)

I think it's a variation of the dark force paddle. I've seen other types of dark force paddles in a few levels I've downloaded, but this variation is new to me.

It might be a combination of two force bugs though, not sure.

Those bouncing rubber things definetly look like a new type of force, to me anyways.

edit: lol, got beaten to it for the answer. Those rubber alien things do look cool though.

Nope, the aliens are just normal rubber force paddles with extra rubber to make them alien like.

Edit: Why do people like posting while I'm posting so much.

I don't think that's the case. You try to get people to post a lot by posting... nevermind. :lol: :D

The extra rubber seems like more of a club that they beat up things with.
LOL

EDIT: Ha! I am the fastest because I wrote more words!

EDIT: I have a theory: It's almost like we're having a conversation, rather than post, wait x1,000,000... we go "!!! someone just posted 2 mins ago!". that is, if we catch it in 2 mins, then we're hooked.

lol, how are you going to keep score though?

Edit: although your alien might need more appendages against the 5 or so of that one,
