PSMonkey (otherwise known as nexis2600 in the QJ forums) just came out with an entry to the NEO Summer Coding Contest: Sandbox v1.0. According to PSMonkey, the game basically is a physics demo with modifiable themes. Of course, we did not want to leave it at that. We tried it for ourselves.

The object of the game is to destroy! Well, actually not as simple as that.

Think bowling (which incidentally is included as a mode). You have a ball and across you are pins. Angle + Force = Score. We think you now have a basic feel of the game. Variety comes from the different themes such as demolition, battle space, and - as PSMonkey promises - mini golf.

Aside from a few tinkering with some of the modes (especially battle space) and the audio, Sandbox is a pretty game. We found the demolition mode most exciting though.

Well, good luck to PSMonkey - here's hoping for more games. Try out this game and tell us what you think about it!

Im going to report you to the relevent bodies for your continued watermarking of images that do not belong to you either legally or morally, take notice of our intention.

Watermarking

Since we took those screencaps ourselves, there should be no issue in watermarking images.

They took the shots themselfs. They can watermark them to hell if they wish to do so.
