Crayon Physics

crayon_shot_02.jpgA charming little game, Crayon Physics is part of Petri Purho’s series of experimental rapid prototypes, inspired by the Experimental Gameplay Project.

The success criteria for each level is simple - get the ball to the star (very Armadillo run). The mechanic is very much like the MIT developed (and Microsoft absorbed) Physics Illustrator, allowing you to draw to create physical elements (limited to boxes in this case) in order to bridge gaps or nudge the ball towards the star. Given that its just a simple prototype its a great success and would not be at all out of place on the DS (particularly with its slightly Yoshi’s Island-esque crayon aesthetic).
