This is a basic test of a port of my Flash commercial physics engine. There's some added improvements over Flash in speed and some ideas I borrowed from traer.physics. Overall it's fast, quite stable, and the Line and Point classes I've developed for it have handy lerp() methods and line intersection methods. This is not the whole package obviously. I've worked out pixel based collisions for use in Flash and attractors which aren't in this demo, but this is just here to start documenting this line of work.
