Numpty Physics 0.2 New 2 Jan 09 23:25
submitted by luojie-duneposted by nath
Category: puzzle
Description: Numpty Physics is a drawing puzzle game in the spirit of Crayon Phyics.

Numpty Physics is a drawing puzzle game in the spirit (and style?) of Crayon Physics using the same excellent Box2D engine. Note though that I've not actually played CP so the experience may be very different. Numpty Physics includes a built-in editor so that you may build (and submit) your own levels.

A collection of user submitted levels - NP-complete available at official site.
