Physics
Physics is a physical world simulator and playground -- you can add squares, circles, triangles, or draw your own shapes, and see them come to life with forces (think gravity, Newton!), friction (scrrrrape), and inertia (ahh, slow down!).
We also plan to add forces such as: magnetism, springs, and motors
Shape Drawing
Now Implimented (mostly)!
Some discussion is required here... most shapes can't be defined simply by a single line. Any shape with fixed (relative) dimensions can, but that's not always what you want.
