Added bounciness control 10 means it bounces back to the same height it fell from while 0 means it doesn’t bounce at all

Ok, I get the part about "gravity", but this is neither a game nor a sandbox yet.

A reset option would be nice. I confess, I did develop a particle physics/fluid mechanics program back in the '80s early '90s. You may have to limit the amount of dynamic data points that can be created at a time, as I had a problem with that, as at that time, the Next computers were notoriously slow, and (not as bad as Next), I had similar problems with Sun Sparc stations working with large neural dbases.
I couldn't help but notice, that your game starts lagging badly, when just a handful of data points are spawned.
Going into the flash settings and increasing the amount of memory to unlimited, might be of help, don't know for sure. Though I am sure that an option for setting the physics resolution (as in; low (fastest, unstable), medium (fast, stable), and/or high (slow, very stable)), will be better, Also an edit / pause mode might help.
Sorry, it was supposed to be a thought or two here.
You are on the right track with this idea, A maneuvering game would be really cool.

Pressing space will remove all shapes so kinda like a reset and i will work on limiting shapes on screen. Thanks for the input.
