I'm wondering how you went about the validation algorithm? I had a similar idea but I went with a very simplistic approach because of time constraint (my shape is really basic so I'm just checking for pivots distance)"},{"author_name":"ethankennerly","author_uid":"3040","time":"Aug 29, 2016 @ 7:58pm","epoch":1472500380,"text":"When I moved the blocks, saw the puff of sand, and heard the collision, while the silhouette of a camel walked by, I felt absorbed!
