the algodoo stuff


yes it's time

so for those who don't know, alot of ppl use algodoo (which is free on pc and $5usd on the app store) to make marble races and algicosathlons (algodoo-icosathlon) n stuff
the videos don't seem to be getting as many views as how they were, but the community is still here today, whether or not it's still alive, i'm not sure

from this point on we're going to be splitting this page onto the left and right sides, so here we go!!




(you can click on these to watch that video btw)

first marble race video i watched

(tied between these two cuz i don't remember which one came first)




first one is kinda obvious, second one might be a bit of a surprise though since i don't actually watch mlp

actually wait what the hell are "marble races" anyway??

well they're marble runs, but made in the program "algodoo"









ok maybe i should try to describe it better

so basically, you get an assortment of colored marbles some people even put images or animations onto them!
and then we get them to roll/race down a track of sorts, where at the end,
the last marble that makes it to the end of THAT TRACK, is eliminated from the race
yes there are multiple tracks and we usually call them "legs",
i'm not sure who came up with that term but they're here now and we can't stop em
anyways, at the end of the 1st leg, every marble that hasn't gotten eliminated yet is sent to the next leg,
this process repeats over and over where near the end they kinda do like a finale course where instead,
the FIRST marble that makes it to the end wins!!

there's alot of variations of this but on average this is how most algodoo marble races go

first algicosathlon related video i watched


to be fair, if you already saw this video then you should've seen it coming

actually wait what the hell are "algicosathlons" anyway??

unlike marble races, this still IS supposed to be done quite differently,
but over the years we may or may not have blurred the lines on the original definition a little
skits is probably the most noticeable difference but we'll get there in a moment

so basically, imagine you're an athlete trying to participate in an icosathlon, but you
accidentally took the wrong directions so now you're competing with a bunch of other people
in an algicosathlon, which is pretty much an icosathlon in algodoo, or at least the first bit of it.
it's an icosathlon right, so obviously it has 20 events, but not necessairly 20 track and field events...
(algodoo is 2d and at this point the event could really be anything now, i saw a snakes and ladders once)
let's say that the first event is "race to the bowl" cuz that's what most people do as the first event
once everybody finishes that event, you get points depending on how well you did in well, racing to the bowl!
so if you placed 3rd you might have 85 points, but if you're third-last you'll get like,

once all the scores are counted, the athlete with the LEAST amount of points is eliminated from the algicosathlon
this goes on with some variations in between, such as team events or
a chance for the eliminated atheletes to rejoin the competition
this goes on until the last person standing, wins the algicosathlon!!
or until the guy making the algicosathlon cancels the series

ok so what were skits again

soo skits are... a short comedy sketch or piece of humorous writing, especially a parody, huh.
yeahh i was just reading the google definition there
it's a little hard to describe because sometimes it's not humorous, or a parody, or short, or a sketch, or all 4 of those
usually though it's just some panels of conversations between the athletes or a poorly written attempt at an
edgy storyline created by the owner of the series
now don't get me wrong now, there ARE and WILL be good written skits in algicosathlons, but the atrocious
ones are just a little bit more noticeable...

here's a few that i used to watch:

!! means it gets WAY better as it progresses trust me

* means i'd show this to you if it's your first time knowing what algicosathlons are
