“Numpty Physics” intel mac port

“Harness gravity with your crayon and set about creating blocks, ramps, levers, pulleys and whatever else you fancy to get the little red thing to the little yellow thing.”

I ported this nice little 2D-physics game to Mac OS X: http://numptyphysics.garage.maemo.org/

The SDL-Linux source was used to port and I only needed minor changes. Mail me if you want the project files. The port is native (Cocoa-SDL!), so no xorg server is needed

Download: here. (Latest version: 0.2 svn-11jan)

Requirements:

* Intel Mac. Sorry, no UB. Couldn’t make the library Box2D for ppc. If you tell me how much you would love it to have a ppc version, I may try it again.
* Mac Os X >= 10.4

Please comment for questions and tell me if it works for you. HAVE FUN! :)

    I’d love a PPC version too. I’ve tried it on the PC and think it would be great. My students agree too.

    I’ve played a similar game on my friend’s iPhone and I must say, I would really like a version for my PPC Mac, if it’s possible.

    You should add a pause and restart feature.

    Thanks so much for providing this port for the mac. I have enjoyed playing it on my intel, but I know my kids would love to give a whirl on their PPC. I’ll have to put my name down as a fan boy after a PPC version. Cheers and thanks agin.

    Thanks for the post! I had a PC, but then I got a mac for my birthday, and I’m completely converted. And with a fun game like that, I’ll never go back to a PC again!

    One more vote for a PPC version! I have this on my Nokia N770 and my 6 year-old son absolutely loves it and wants to run it on his eMac.
