You’ve seen a couple different Poly Bridge vehicles in the images I’ve shown so far. You can also create suspension bridges, or come up with something uniquely your own. In short, hydraulics allow for some very interesting structures. You can make draw bridges as well, and the hydraulics can be set to either expand or contract so they move the way you want them to. Using hydraulics, you can also make bridges with an entire road section that elevates to let a ship through. Jumps aren’t the only interesting things you can make in Poly Bridge, though. Poly Bridge lets you build crazy jumps, too! These limits can all be set in your custom levels that you create in Sandbox mode as well. In addition to funding, you also may have limits on certain types of building materials in each level. There is also an achievement for clearing each world with all levels beat while staying under budget. It makes it much more challenging to try to win the level while staying under the set budget. You can exceed the funding limit, but only by so much. There is also a funding limit in each level. Don’t think that will make this game easy, though! In most cases, if your bridge is going to fail, it will do so well before you meet the level objectives, anyway. In fact, your bridge can even collapse, but you still win as long as all vehicles reach their destinations and all ships pass by without colliding with the bridge. You may also notice the van flips as it reaches its destination! This still counts as a win for you. You can see how the bridge parts change color in real time to show the changing loads on each beam.

The animated gif above (and the one below) are from the Poly Bridge online gallery that is full of user-shared replays, which the game exports as animated gifs. The stress view shows that this bridge is in good shape, as all parts are green.
This is important in later levels, as placement of joints can make all the difference between a bridge that stands, and one that fails in epic fashion. You also get the option to toggle grid snapping off for finer control of where things are placed. You can also change the simulation speed and watch your bridge in slow motion, allowing you to better see where the problem begins when things go terribly wrong. If a part turns bright red, it’s close to failing. You can toggle on stress view, which highlights bridge parts in different colors to show how stressed they are. The game includes features to help you in your bridge building endeavors, though. All of these materials have their limits, though put too much stress on them and your entire bridge may come toppling down. Building materials include wood, steel, road, cable, hydraulics, and suspension. Building your bridges is simple and intuitive in Poly Bridge. The music is catchy and fits well with the visuals. The game has a cartoony art style that gives the game a fun and playful feeling to it. This is the suspension bridge level from the tutorial. Constructing your masterpiece bridge is simple and intuitive.
