Algodoo (formerly known as ) is a sandbox-style 2D physics simulator developed by Algoryx Simulation AB. Originally released as a university project called "Phun" in 2008, it evolved into a professional educational and entertainment tool. Software Overview
Community & resources
There’s an active user base sharing scenes, tutorials, and videos—great for learning tricks and finding project templates. Look for scene libraries and walkthroughs to accelerate progress.
- Rock: Heavy and rough.
- Wood: Medium weight, breaks easily under stress.
- Rubber: Very bouncy and high friction.
- Ice: Slippery (low friction).
- Steel: Heavy and durable.
Because Algodoo (and legacy Phun) is one of the only tools that allows intuitive learning. A student can build a seesaw, add a heavy box on one side, and see the torque fail in real-time. They don't need to solve differential equations first.
The Chain Reaction: When Leo hit the "Play" button, gravity took over. The boulder crushed the glass, which fell onto a see-saw, launching a tiny marble into a series of rotating gears.
