Crayon Physics - we need it too!
 
So now even the iPhone has its Crayon Physics clone:

About time we make one for the ITs :)

In fact it is version 0.8 already...

I don't think so; the splash screen is that of Crayon Physics, but the overlay seems to be an implementation of the "standard" Box2D engine.

In fact, the author of Crayon Physics and Crayon Physics Deluxe says as much on his blog:

Whatever it is, I downloaded the original version and playing like a child :D

And, yes, it would be great on a tablet, or on any touch screen device, using the mouse is soooo hard and unsatisfactory!

I played this (the older beta) on a Sony UX and it was a blast. Works great on a smaller screen.

I liked the original version on my Windows tablet as well.

I proposed the author to make a non-game version of Deluxe, a sort of animated drawing paper. I know a certain young niece of mine who'd be fascinated for days on end by it. Imagine if you could just draw stuff on virtual paper that moved by itself, maybe the Box2D engine will allow for some "creature physics", so the kids can draw dogs and cats (and, most likely, fiersome dinosaurs) that would have their own movement patterns, a bit like the wheels of the car in the demo video of Deluxe (but without the wheels, obviously).

I agree! I installed it on my iphone and people have been drooling over it for hours!

If what you installed on your iPhone (<spit!>) was what I saw in the video higher up in this thread, you've installed a bleak shadow of a shallow copy of the original.

This software would be cool on the N8x0. Someone who can program it should do it! :)
