Hi all,

I've posted my new game called Knockheads in the Android Market and I invite you to check it out. It's totally free, and has a light and silly feel to it, while still challenging. If you like casual, funny and addictive physics games, check this one out!

Update: I fixed a compatibility issue so if it didn't show up in the market for your phone before, it should now.

Alright guys, new update today.

The gameplay is drastically improved. You still fling the guy with a touch/drag but upon leaving the dashed circle, he shoots out at roughly the same speed no matter how slow you were moving.

Also, before I was using a delta time step for the physics, which accounted for fps fluctuations but with inaccurate floating point math, it was not enough. Slow framerates still moved slower. Here I've implemented a fixed time step with an accumulator, which has improved the physics and made the game much more consistent.

Hope you enjoy it!
