Because of the really calm music and bright-coloured graphics, my first impression was that this is probably a game for children or something. The levels seemed very easy, and I hacked through forty of them before realizing I had completely missed the point. Crayon is about elegance. Not only is it enough to find a solution to a problem: it must be “a good one”, i.e. meaning not to draw unnecessary objects. To complete each level perfectly, you have to come up with three different ones: elegant, old school, and awesome. The awesome solution is something you can choose freely among the ones you have developed to solve the problem. ** | Because of the really calm music and bright-coloured graphics, my first impression was that this is probably a game for children or something.

Basically, you control a pen with your mouse, and draw objects of various dimensions to create dynamical movement. In each problem, your goal is to move a ball in such a manner that it will collide with a star, or, in some cases, multiple stars in one run. You can cheat by clicking on the ball to give it a small initial movement boost; this is not allowed in proper solutions. Actually, you can go further and realize that by adding objects beneath the ball you increase the potential energy (the energy associated with “higher ground” that is readily transformable to movement) of the ball, thus having an “infinite” supply of energy (in practice, the energy is limited by the height of the screen). Once you notice this little trick, there is no point in finding just some solution: it has to be a reasonable one, using the properties of the laws of physics instead of “faking energy”. | Basically, you control a pen with your mouse, and draw objects of various dimensions to create dynamical movement.

- | The offline game alone has over 70 levels to provide tens of hours of excitement, if one commits to find all the elegant solutions without extra help. Registration gives access to extra content, and there is also a level editor for creating custom physics models of one’s own. Some of the levels towards the end are very, very difficult: I noticed that my physics background did not help me much. In one custom scenario, a rocket is used to guide the path of the ball. A rocket is one of the standard components of Crayon Physics. | + | The offline game alone has over 70 levels to provide tens of hours of excitement, if one commits to find all the elegant solutions without extra help.

+ | Jamestown : légende de la colonie perdue est le premier jeu de Final Form Games et il est génial. Ce jeu de tir frénétique prend tout ce que nous connaissons et aimons dans les jeux de tir classiques et rajeunit le tout avec un récit imaginatif et des graphismes époustouflants. La méthode de jeu est la cerise sur le gâteau et fait de ce jeu (qui faisait partie d'un récent Humble Indie Bundle) un ajout important à la collection de tout joueur sérieux. | ||

Après quelques combats, vous pouvez aller au magasin dépenser votre or durement gagné pour débloquer des choses comme des vaisseaux, des packs défi et divers modes de jeu. De manière générale, les contrôles et le jeu même sont très solides et fluides ; je n'ai pas rencontré de problèmes ou de bogues et les contrôles de la souris que je sache, tout comme ceux du clavier, étaient confortables. | ||

Les détails et le soin accordés aux environnements exubérants faits de pixels lui confèrent une apparence extrêmement bien faite et le compositeur chilien Francisco Cerda a créé une très belle bande son pour la mettre en valeur.
