An obscenely rich teenager throws his VR controller across the room in a fit of blind panic while playing Half-Life: Alyx . It leaves the window of his bedroom at 5m/s. It falls 10m vertically and hits his neighbour s greenhouse, smashing the glass. How many metres did the controller travel horizontally before coming to a stop in the tomatoes? Use a kinematic formula to determine your answer and show your wor– UGH, physics. Here are 10 games where physics is not boring, but good. (more…)

- Humble Bundle adds Superbrothers - 13 March 2013
"We spied the solitary grave at the edge of The Perilous Precipice & we wondered what was up with that. #sworcery", your Twitter chums tweet, and what is up with that? They're playing Superbrothers: Sword & Sworcery EP , see, and you can too for cheap, as it's been added to the pay-what-you-want Humble Bundle With Android #5, along with two other games. You don't need to let it spam Twitter, mind.

- The Humble Indie Bundle Gets Bigger, Better, and Therefore Less Humble - 20 December 2011
The new Humble Indie Bundle is terrific . For a price of your own choosing, you can get indie gems Super Meat Boy , Bit. Trip Runner , Jamestown , Shank and Nightsky , as well as Cave Story + and Gratuitous Space Battles for paying more than the average selling price. Today, the folks behind the bundle announced that they've added a new batch of games for anyone who pays more than the average price, which is currently at a mere $5.16. So in addition to those seven games, you'll get Crayon Physics Deluxe , Cogs , VVVVVV , Hammerfight , and And Yet It Moves . So, a bunch of games from the last Humble Bundle tacked on to an already killer lineup. Need more incentive to pick this up? (Seriously? You do? Wow. You are demanding.) Okay then, you'll also get the soundtracks for every game thrown in for free. I'm not sure what could make this deal more appealing. Maybe if they like… deliver you…
- The Humble Introversion Bundle launches - 22 November 2011
The Humble Bundles keep on rolling, with a new 'pay what you want' indie mega-bargain arriving mere weeks after the last one wrapped up. The new Humble Introversion Bundle packs four games from English indie Introversion: hacking sim Uplink , RTS Darwinia , its multiplayer sequel Multiwinia , and Cold War 'em up Defcon . The Bundle also includes two Introversion tech demos, the procedural city generator used in Subversion and a voxel-based destructible building demo. As Subversion is on indefinite hold , it'll be nice to get a good look at some of it at least. On top of that, if you pay over the average price, you'll also score Humble Bundle veterans Aquaria and Crayon Physics Deluxe . The Bundle has already outsold Xbox Live Arcade's Darwinia+ within 41 minutes on sale, Introversion revealed on Twitter . As ever, all games come DRM-free, but you can activate them on Steam if you fancy.…

- Cheap This Week - 27/07/11 - 27 July 2011
It's Wednesday, and that can only mean one thing: I'm back with yet another selection of the finest discount gaming offers to tempt your wallet with. Throughout the week you can keep your finger on the pulse of cut price gaming by checking SavyGamer.co.uk . Read on to find out what's cheap this week. Here are this week's deals: Batman: Arkham Asylum - £3.75 Cracking price for what I reckon is The Batman's finest hour in the field of games. Don't just take my word for it; Dan granted it a a highly sought after Eurogamer 9/10 : "Most of the gameplay concerns are minor when taken in the context of how much Arkham Asylum gets so gloriously right. Rarely does a game do a character justice in such a satisfying way. Arkham Asylum finds room for every major aspect of Batman's enduring appeal, and it does so in a game compelling enough to work even without its masked star. Fans of the caped crus…
- New Humble Indie Bundle out now - 27 July 2011
The third Humble Indie Bundle is available now, offering five cracking titles for PC and Mac: Crayon Physics Deluxe, Cogs, VVVVVV, Hammerfight, and And Yet It Moves.

Your money will be split between the developers, the Humble Bundle organisers and two charities: the Electronic Frontier Foundation and the Child's Play Charity. You get to decide who gets what proportion of your donation.
