My 4 year old son will love this level. He keeps taking over my games, and plants rockets everywhere!

I'll wager 3000 (light).

This level should be called "Tweaker's Delight". Small changes can make big difference in where the armadillo ends up...

I think tweaking could take me to 4764, but let's say 4750+ for now...

Well. Made me a quick 4730 - put it in an envelope and attached it to my flying snails. Hope they find their way through to Mikee7. The weather is pretty nasty this time of year. And there are lots of snail-hunters in the woods after the invasion of monstersnails( see http://www.bt.no/forbruker/husoghjem/article282649.ece the heading is understandable even norwegian snegl=snail). The monstersnail is most likely a hybrid between the black forest snail and the brown tiger snail. The norwegian streets are getting covered in slime - making slime skiing very populair - due to the extreme low friction from the slime.

8) I tweaked it a little more. Its not a winner though. But its contributes to make the number of entries higher with fire and burning desire!

Edit Pjaff: ok its 4800+

4418 for this new player. I'm sure you guys have wild tricks but I kept it simple: elastic and a catch harness.

Update: tweaked to 4444. I don't see how to shave any more from this solution, so I'm looking forward to the results to see how others are solving it with so much budget left. This solution is quite elegant though: one broken rocket, no broken materials, just a gentle flight and landing.
