This was amazing.
I am a huge fan of physics, it was my best subject back in highschool. I have to say, you really know your shit. What I would really love to see is a flash calculator for physics. If you could make an interactive cheat sheet where you could input various data into the equations, and then have the action script solve it, that would be extremely helpful for students all over the world. Keep it up man, I gave you a 5.
Hey thanks man. I enjoy physics as well so creating the code for this game really made me look at my high school books again. Remember all those formulas with some crazy stuff like sine's and cosines? All that is now turned into action scripting. As for the cheat sheet, I guess it could be done, but teachers always want to see “your work” when you turn in homework…..
Excellent!
A fun little toy, the interface was very smooth, and the measuring tape was a very nice touch. It would be cool if we could also choose to launch with a certain force, as opposed to initial speed.
Right. Speed makes things easier, on the programming side that is. Since force is acceleration time mass and gravity is negative acceleration the calculations would've been harder to do using force as an input.
Well put design
Great physics game for physics lovers like myself.You did good keep it up
Thanks. Who knows, maybe a physics teacher may like the game as well...
Intersting, challenging, and fun.
This game is actually quite fun. I like bein able to choose what the cannon fires, and the wind resistence adds an extra challenge when it comes time to aim. Though I think the red adn blue angle lines were a bit unneccessary as they tended to clutter it up. Maybe change it so they only appear for a few seconds after the projectile impacts, then have them vanish. Sound was pretty weak since the only nosie was the cannon firing. Graphics were pretty good too, though I'd lvoe to see even more ammo to fire. Great submission.
Thanks for your observations. I will certainly consider what you pointed out about the angle lines.
By the way, did you try to hit David?
LOL I broke ur game
Hey i dont know if this was a glitch or something but put the speed on 9999 and fire....lol it doesnt even go. Next to the cannon a big blue looking pill shows up and u cant play after that...lol
WHOA!!!
You indeed broke the game... Back to the lab!
