A shiny steel marble races down a procedural Rube Goldberg track — ramps, spiral helixes and a funnel finale, with gravity-driven speed and a chasing camera.
Rube Goldberg machines are named after cartoonist Reuben "Rube" Goldberg, who in the early 1900s drew absurdly convoluted contraptions that accomplished simple tasks through long chains of cause and effect. Each stage here — ramp, helix, funnel — hands off momentum to the next like a real chain reaction. The marble's motion is driven purely by gravity converting stored potential energy (height) into kinetic energy (speed) as it descends, with friction/drag gradually bleeding energy away just as it would on a real track.
