Backyard Engineers

Backyard Engineers is a game about the engineering design process. In Backyard Engineers, players create catapults to launch water balloons and win battles in the great neighborhood balloon fight. Players will need different catapults to meet different challenges, and will have to balance design characteristics (like mobility, energy use, stability, and efficiency) with their goals as they try to build the best catapult for the job. After making design decisions, players can test their catapults and adjust their designs before joining the battle and laying siege to the backyard.
