Challenge 11 - Hourglass
#1
Use standard Small Basic to make an animation of an hourglass (egg timer). 

Something on the lines of this:

Ten years ago I published an hourglass program on the old forum as MNL048. I published it again as DHKR626.000

WhTurner,

Very interesting solution.  Shy

I haven't figured out yet how to do this beautifully.  Blush

Here's an HourGlass program. I know we were supposed to use standard small basic, but some of the LitDev extension snuck in. This was done with some help from LitDev.

NXWV497.000

Enjoy!

Here's a version that lives by the rules and does not use an extension.

FPSX538.000

My hourglass is still in a folder, unfinished.  Blush

I would like to create something unusual. But I can't think of anything interesting.  Rolleyes

How about LDPhysics one with small balls that fall through a funnel, not simple but totally doable - balls getting stuck with friction may be tricky.

Hi all.  Shy

LitDev, you have suggested an interesting idea.
If the use of an extension is allowed, then there is more scope for imagination.  Rolleyes

I will try.
