You’d put the physics on hold, position all of the elements on the screen, and then unfreeze time and watch the chain reaction unfold. i don’t know if TIM was the first to do this, but i see it all over the place now, and in interesting places, like the pauseable combat system in Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. I was considering using something similar for a sequel to our TOJam game Bloat. [...] [...] One thing that TIM introduced me to was this idea of playing the game while it was paused.
