DESCRIPTION

12       The  Powder  Toy  is  a  free physics sandbox game, which simulates air
13       pressure and velocity, heat, gravity and a number of other interactions
14       between  different substances.  The game provides the player with vari‐
15       ous building materials, liquids, gases and electronic components  which
16       can  be used to construct complex machines, guns, bombs, realistic ter‐
17       rains and almost anything else.  The player  can  then  mine  them  and
18       watch cool explosions, add intricate wirings, play with little stickmen
19       or operate their machine.
20
21       The game also features a Lua API, which allows to automate work or even
22       make plugins for the program.
