Crayon Physics
December 2nd, 2008 | Published in Concept design
Crayon Physics is quite an ingenious little video game, in which the player guides a ball to a goal point, not by directly controlling the ball, but by drawing shapes (for example, ramps that allow the ball to roll from one platform to another, or objects that block and “guide” the ball) with the mouse, tablet screen or drawing pad/tablet. Developed by Petri Purho, Crayon Physics Deluxe is now available on the site.
It’s a simple game, but the interface makes it unique. Watch the video on the site to see how engaging it is.
