I stumbled upon an interesting video of a physics game played on a tablet pc. Apparently you can draw anything on the screen and the object will interact with other objects according to the laws of physics.
A simple and yet well designed game that opens new perspectives for interactivity and user interface.
This is the work of Petri Purho a student at Helsinki Polytechnic that produces a game every month (he programs them in under 7 days) exploring new forms of gameplay.
You can download the game from his blog for free: Kloonigames » Blog Archive » Crayon Physics (windows only for the moment)

That’s amazing!
I saw this video a few days ago and I told my brother to get this game now! (he has exactly the same tablet pc)
I think this kind of games shows that another kind of leisure is possible and the imagination plays a role
can’t wait playing this game!

I agree Dani.
Game developers proved experts at developing games of destruction and gamers at playing them.
I think that constructive games are more challenging either for the developer or for the player.
