Here’s a preview of a brand new bag that was sent my way from Pac Designs, a reputable messenger bag company based in Canada. The bag is very comfortable and spacious and features some unique design elements that I haven’t seen adapted by any other messenger bag company. More on that in my full review, so stay tuned.

Thanks Simon for the photo.

Crayon Physics Deluxe

No joke. Crayon Physics Deluxe is one of the better games I’ve played on the PC in a very, very long time. The game won the 2008 Grand Prize at the Independent Games Festival and it certainly is worthy of such a title.

The basic premise of the game is to direct a red ball towards a gold star. To do this, one must draw contraptions, lines, shapes, and other objects that will make the ball roll in a particular direction. Everything in the game follows real-world physics, meaning that objects seem to have weight and fall as they should if what you drew were available in real life.

The game is challenging and fun and really acts as a sort of brain-teaser. I highly recommend this game!
