Vectorpark


I found the main site for the Feed the Head site I have talked about before. There are four more awesome sites to explore and play with. I was so excited when I found this! My new favorite is Levers because it is a mind game. At first there is a blue screen with water at the bottom and a handle bar type of thing that has loops at both ends.

The goal is to take the objects that drop and hang them by the ends. Every time you hang the object the circle at the top will measure the time the object is not touching the water. If it does touch the water the timer stops and nothing will fall until the object is above the water for eight seconds. Then the next object will fall. There will be a submarine, a snowman, more levers and many more objects. The tricky ones are the water bucket and the birdcage because you have to measure the water a certain way and the bird keep flying around landing on the objects pushing them down into the water.

Another one that I enjoy is the Park. There is a man sitting on the left bottom corner on top of a bunch of disheveled objects. This man has a binocular looking object and when you move around the screen he follows. There are things to touch on like the little forest in the middle. When clicked on a larger circle of an oval tree forest appears.

When you click on the ovals they fall over and there is a lighter colored object that when you touch it, it falls and runs down the hill and up the cliff. Then a large honeycomb object appears with little white holes. When rolled over a light appears around then hole and when you click on them, it takes you to another circle that can be played with. This site is simple in its appearance but everything is calculated and created in a puzzle playful way that is intriguing.

The other two are my least favorite but still interesting. Vectorpark has seven circles in the middle of the page and each has a little peak of what will happen when clicked on. There is a little screen that appears and each has an object that moves to the movement of the pointer. Like in Lake if the pointer stops the egg shape with legs on a tricycle stops rolling over the lake. The last and defiantly not least is Windosill. It starts out a dark screen but you can see little objects that are slightly lit. Each can be played with by moving them with the pointer. If you touch the light bulb the lights will come on and you can see everything you can play with are in a large divided box. This site is my favorite for its creativity and simplistic aesthetic.
