Played with it on the phone. So satisfying.

I know the time it takes to get something to feel this good.

Really fantastic work.

I had a similar idea inspired by xkcd:

I noticed that when I drag an object, the force appears to originate from the object's center of mass rather than from my cursor. So it feels a little weird.

Liked those small Box2D playboxes from decades ago, wonder where all that went.

It's like open source Angry Birds.

I knew exactly what this would be before even clicking it. Someone had to make it!

There is so many xkcd things, I didn't know which it would be.

It's 2,347. There's also 927. And 538, and who can forget 386. 936 is also a classic. 1205 is a favorite, although AI changes the scales these days. As does 303. 1838 is another good one for when CC is "thinking". 1425.

Edit oh and Extrapolating out; 605.

And it's all a meta commentary on 915.

On an unrelated note, AI completely changed economics of https://xkcd.com/1205/

Previously I'd postpone some tooling since I'd lost more time on it (unless it's something I wanted to learn anyway), but now I'm all in.

Plus "a dev typing real fast" from the XKCD Stack (https://xkcd.com/1636/) is now feasible.

We absolutely need a "whatever Microsoft is doing" object in that.
