Description

Bring your ideas to life with realistic physics in Algodoo. This creative and educational app lets you design two-dimensional scenes where objects move according to the laws of physics. See cause and effect in action and refine your builds to perfection.

Algodoo is a virtual 2D construction set to enjoy the creative thrill of building fun scenes and machines. You’ll never run out of parts. You can go deeper and analyse the motion and learn about mechanical devices. Once you master the tools and principles, you can build sandbox games or mesmerising, complex simulations.

• Use basic 2D geometrical shapes or the free-hand drawing tool to create objects.
• Combine components like axles, springs, motors, ropes, and lasers to create intricate machines.
• Choose from various materials—steel, wood, rubber, water, and helium—and customise at will.
• Press “Simulate” to bring your scene to life, moving under the forces of gravity, aerodynamics, buoyancy, and more.
• Use trial and error to explore ideas and perfect your inventions.
• Express your imagination with vibrant colors, shapes, and textures.

Looking to build animations, contraptions, marble races, moving structures, chain reactions, or virtual science experiments? With Algodoo, the possibilities for invention, creativity, and exploration are endless.

With the Quick Tour and tutorial videos, you can easily learn Algodoo’s basic tools and principles. It's not just for fun— the scientific foundation of Algodoo makes it a great teaching and learning aid for exploring physics concepts, operating principles of machines, and even construction.

Discover the creativity of others and get inspired for your next build by visiting the Algobox library. Access thousands of scenes created by the Algodoo community and share your own creations by signing up for an Algobox account.

Algodoo offers endless fun for users of all ages. Download the app now and start building, and search for #Algodoo on YouTube or social media to explore videos showcasing imaginative creations from our global community.

Mr jorsta ,

Optics folder keeps crashing

Trying to open the installed comonents to create an optics demonstration. Keeps crashing down. Any suggestions?

Hi,

Thank you for the feedback. We have released a new update that should fix a lot of issues. If you still have problems with the new version and have the time, please reach out to support@algoryx.com

Great update

I have finally circled around to try this program again since it has been updated. The issues I was having with the previous release are now gone, yay! So, now I find that I am really enjoying playing and designing things with this. It is really fun! The interface is pretty good considering the complicated physics that can be being simulated on any given scene. I am sure I dont know how I would of done it any different and as a programmer myself I can only imagine that its got to be a bear to have written something like this. So I have upgraded my review to 5 stars as of this release and for the price this is a fun and potentialy very useful tool for hobyists or students that want to play with physics toys.

I would as another reviewer below add to a wish list of adding magnetism, electricity (even simple circuits of at least logic gates maybe) and thermics to this already great program! Perhaps do them as add-on plugins of some sort. I can't believe I would say this but, I would even accept them as 'low' cost IAP's… How about making it extendible so the user could add other tools, materials and properties (like conductivity to go with electronics or attraction/repulsion to go with magnetism) then you can get the user community to do the bulk of the work, *winks*. Thanks Algoryx, great App!

A True Gem!

Super fun app for building contraptions, eye-candy, experiments, and other curiosities. The scripting language is easy to pick up and reasonably powerful, making Algodoo a great entry into the world of rigid body physics, 2D geometry, interactive UI, and event-based game mechanics - without all the hassle of a more serious development environment. Or you can just build weird stuff and throw it around.
