Summer Setup Drop In Question

So I'm building a summer setup, and I came across a problem. I have a hill in my yard, and I can't figure out a design that would keep the drop in in place, but not cost a ton of money. Does anyone have any suggestions? Also pics would help. Sorry if this is a re-post
 
I'd take 1 now, but it's dark. The hill is steep enough, but there's a 5 ft flat spot at the bottom. I don't need a jump because it drops off into the woods
 
Build it so the four corners are 4x4s, then connect them with cross braces (wood going diagonally to each corner piece) build it all level, and have the corner piece bottoms stick out a few feet. Dig four holes with the back 2 deeper than the front 2 to the point where when u set it into the holes it sits level. That's how we did ours.
 
digging it into the ground would be the safest way. any other possibility could result in the tower slipping out.
you could try and build it so that the supports are different lengths, but idk how stable that will be.
