Not bad, although I don't see how this fits the theme

And you'd be kinda right. It is sth inspired from back when I was learning physics + I guess the concept is old? but also I just really wanted to program a double pendulum

sim runs superwell, you even put some IK logic on the right click drag, very cool. setting up different parameters for the sim is very painfull though, that should definitely be done at runtime using some sliders.

tyty

Ooh that's what I did. The math was very fun & painful tho

Well done getting this running, the physics are brilliant, how long did it take you? I am very impressed by it :)

Thanks! the physics' math itself is more or less straight forward, the bulk of my time was on the UI and the interaction which is actually primary just math, lots of special cases and bugs
