Mechanical purity is designing a level to function without any sensors, movers, rotators, logic, or advanced connecters. Why would you want to make a level like that? One reason would be to show off your designing prowess. Another reason may be simply the esthetic appeal of such a level. The concept would require knowledge of weights, levers, and balance to create a level. Logic is possible in a mechanically pure level, but it would be done physically, not with sensors or chips and would be very difficult. If you do decide to make a mechanically pure level, please put [mechanically pure] in the description as well as give brief description of what mechanical purity is.

Well, we would need a physical rope for this.

Nobody force you to use logic if you don't want to you can even make such level in LBP1

That's just bieng lazy right there!

Logic is a lot harder with no chips, sensors, etc. Lol

I like the idea of this too. I used to be a watchmaker and I tried making a mechanical movement in LBP1, besides from the physics engine being kinda finicky the bigger problem was the springs/sprung bolts just don't have enough torque to either power the wheels or to act as the spring in a balance or barrel in a mechanical watch. For another project I had in mind a bipedal walker where the method of suspension was mechanically inherent in the leg itself, so it could walk over uneven ground without issue - but I found there weren't enough layers to have all the levers and things in the design work together without colliding.
