Walaber (www.walaber.com), developer of numerous physics powered games including Jelly Car, Trampoline, Stunt Playground, etc. has posted a video of a gymnastics game prototype. (see below)

Walaber informed me he is using the Farseer Physics Engine to power the gymnast. 

Like my game, Diver, his gymnist prototype is using a physics based animation and control scheme similar to Ski Stunt Simulator. 

In my opinion, this control scheme is VERY under-utilized in games today. It provides a fluid sense of control beyond what most games offer.

It's hard to explain in words why it's so great, you really need to experience it. To do that, you can either fire up Ski Stunt or wait for my game Diver or Walaber's gymnastics game.

Given Walaber's track history, this latest effort of his is sure to be a fun, physics powered game.

I'll be keeping an eye on it as it develops. You should too.

Here is the video:
