Examples

The library includes a lot of examples from the original jbox2d testbed.<br> For a quick start, each sketch has a couple of default mouse-actions:

• LMB: drag rigid bodies / particles
• LMB + SHIFT: shoot a bullet
• MMB: spawn particles
• RMB: destroy particles

... as well as some key-mapping, e.g. to display the debug-draw, restart, pause/resume.<br> Of course, each of those can be altered, overwritten or disabled/removed.

Rendermodes

Default renderer, no postprocessing

particles are rendered as point-sprites and rigid bodies are rendered using the PShape tree structure.

Default renderer + Postprocessing

LiquidFx adds some liquid effect and fake shading. PixelFlow needs to be installed to use it.

Debug Draw

using the box2d world for rendering and basic processing draw calls.
