Cheap High Speed Camera Thrills

I just know that all your life you’ve been wondering what it would look like if you dropped an iron ball into some sand and captured it in super smooth slow-mo.

Epsilon Flash Game

Epsilon Flash game

Epsilon is a Flash based game, a sort of light interpretation of the massive Large Hadron Collider experiment.

Review and walkthrough at Jay is Games:

Epsilon employs the same humorous test-subject theme that we’ve seen in Portal, Shift 2 and Falling Forever. Your job is to manipulate an orb to collect energy points and make it to the goal before time runs out. The story’s a little thin compared to the heavy, theoretical physics-based theme of the game. However, the loading screen displays a brief summary of the real-life Large Hadron Collider experiment, perhaps offering the game as an homage to the research that’s currently being done.
