Universe Sandbox guys, tell me about it

It's scientific. Really, it's not much of a game. It's a "universe explorer" or sorts. You get to create planets/stars/etc and give them their own gravity, then plop them somewhere (like a stable universe) and see how it affects it.

It's pretty fun, but it's not really casual-friendly, like most simulators. I've messed up the universe dozens of times. Either way, it's a hoot to watch stars blow up.

It's also worth noting that with Universe Sandbox, you need a pretty powerful processor/GPU to do the REALLY crazy stuff you see in the preview video. It'll run on absolutely any machine, but you become limited by the number of particles you want to see/affect.

Can anyone confirm if the logo on the shoes is really on a pair from Big Daddies?

I don't think it is. It keeps reminding me of Frozen Synapse, but it's not exactly the same.
 
Stay away from Universe Sandbox unless you're a space/astronomy buff or something like that. Not too much "game" inside there. Most of the "fun" things to do in it involve throwing a celestial object inside another without even the satisfaction of a good cosmic fireworks show.

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
I promise I wouldn't alt tab from Metro 2033 but I wanted to thank Mikor for the gift! It's one of his favorite fps of all time, so can't wait to dig into that eventually!

I don't see any logo on the shoes, actually.

What do you make of the "e" on the helmet" and the stars?

Fable III any good?

There are much better choices, regardless if someone enjoyed playing it. If you're looking to scratch that itch, grab something like Dragon Age Origins if it goes on sale again, tomorrow. Really, any western RPG will be a better choice.
