Phun - 2D physics sandbox

Don't have time to check Phun out myself right now (NEED SLEEP!), but the youtube video definitely looks fun. I really love physics sandbox stuff :D

Oh damn... That didn't last long :(
The vcredist_x86 needed for running the game doesn't seem to install correctly on my computer (the instalation starts but there's no indication of it having finished) and the game just crashes when i try to run it :'(

Not sure what the problem is for you, jgpaiva...
Runs great here (on linux). :)

That little thing is addicting!

Collision detection fails sometimes though, when very high speed objects collide they tend to go through each other.

Looks fun - very similar to...

Sketchy Physics (physics sandbox in 3D) >> Video HERE

Crayon Physics (2D physics with Incredible Machine like missions)

Ok, it works now. Apparently, it was related to the graphics, disabling the shaders solved it.

Unfortunatelly, as soon as i add some water, it becomes too slow.
Still, it's a great fun! Thanks a lof, f0dder :)

Gothic: yep, i also noticed that problem, and i think it's on the author's todo list.
