The results are in from Bridge Building contest 26, hosted by http://www.bridgebuilder-game.com/" target="_blank">http://www.bridgebuilder-game.com/ and sponsored by Chronic Logic.
 
This was not a normal contest to say the least, the participants built bridges through an entire Bridge Construction Set map pack spanning twelve original levels, competing for the lowest cost for all twelve bridges combined.  These levels are absolutely amazing, and the some of the bridges accomplish things we never dreamed possible with Bridge Construction Set.  I will be posting some screenshots from contest 26 in the Bridge Construction Set screenshots section, but in the meantime check out the

I have not built bridges in a while (or visited their forum) but this really makes me want to play it again...

[Chronic Logic - Josiah]

Yeah some of those bridges are, I am going to put some of the screenshots up for everyone to see.  I am very impressed by the levels and the bridges.

Wow, those are some really cool bridges. Looking at them makes me want to buy this game... but first I'll have to see if the game runs on my PC, and if I have the money.

Try the demo! Beware that sometimes you need to build huge (~800 m) bridges in the full version.

Yup, I tried the demo today and it works great on my PC!
But as usual, I had to set all the graphical settings to the lowest http://67.15.141.32/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':('>
Oh well, like I always say: gameplay over graphics!

Yeah, money will always be a problem for me when it comes to buying games... and I still have to pay back my parents for that DS I bought while I was on vacation!
