Candy Machine was a game on the Cartoon Network US and UK website. Like its successor, Candy Machine Deluxe, the point is to build a path to carry a jawbreaker using pipes that will connect a drop point to a cup.
Gameplay
The gameplay of Candy Machine is very simple. The mouse is used to choose pipes from a menu and then connect them to each other in order to form a path. If a pipe is left open-ended, the jawbreaker will continue on in the direction that the end is. For example, if an elbow pipe bending right is chosen and then used as the final, the jawbreaker will move to the right and vanish offscreen rather than dropping to the ground due to gravity.
At the start of the game, the player has ten jawbreakers, or lives. If the jawbreaker misses the cup, a life is lost. If it goes in, meanwhile, the next level (and usually another part) is unlocked.
Parts
At the start of the game, only basic parts are available. As the game moves on, more parts are unlocked. These parts are often fancy things such as a Shower Stall, a Teleporter, and a Multipipe.
