For a GR game, I think a sequel to Velocity Raptor might be cool instead. (It's already relativity!)

How about... Higgs Gravity ShocktoRaptor?

With your handy sundial to see the time and sliderule to measure distances!

But not too rainy that you can't use your trusty Sundial

Edit: Ooh, it's a ninja swoops ninja world out there

Also, with a circuit maker on your pocket and evolving stick creatures chasing you!

You're right.

I made a thread about GR there.

I suppose we could add gravitational or effective potentials, to show things like Lagrange points.

Would be cool, but might slow down rendering a bit.

What is a Lagrange point?

Is it just a mathematical description of newtonian gravity, or something different?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lagrangian_point

Basically a Lagrange point is a point where three objects can be immobile towards eachother in an orbit. For example, if I had Earth orbiting the Sun and the moon was in any of the Lagrange points(Except perhaps L3: Humankind is kind of bad at seeing through stars) it would look stationary relative to us.

Well put. I came across a pretty nice video today about the Lagrange Points, in fact: http://flip.it/wyxP6

The video is by Sixty Symbols (who've made a slew of physics videos). It's a nice breakdown of what LP's are and why they're important.

Thanks, I watched the video and it was very helpful
