Burning Sand 2 is a powder-toy sandbox game that supports up to hundreds of different particle types from sand and water to electricity and bombs.
The game is also highly customizable and supports many different mods. Such as the Galaxy Mod that lets you form a planet (and destroy it of course!) or the torture mod (my favorite >:D) where you can make a person with skin, organs, and blood and try out different weapons on him.
The stock game is still fun to play. The game is very small (about 2 MBs). And runs well despite having thousands of particles moving around.
The Burning Sand 2 forums host many different user made mods that you can paste to a text file for later usage.
I'm not saying it's the best game ever, but it's a fun time waster.

Wasn't there an awesome planet war sim mod on there?
[QUOTE=koekje4life;22782589]Wasn't there an awesome planet war sim mod on there?[/QUOTE]
Yeah, but the mod won't work for me for some reason
Burning/falling sands is as old as time but still awesome.
You can play it online [url=http://fallingsandgame.com/sand/]here[/url]

This.
ahh i remember this, really awesome game for a laptop
iGalaxy is the only reason I play this. I wish it was updated.
I used to be OBSESSED with this, and make mods and everything. I just cant be bothered with it any more :(
such a good game though.
This isnt a clone. This one has been around for years. Just look on the site. There are several versions.

Apparently...it was the other way around ....lol

although, saying that. if burning sand had atmospheric pressure and wind, it would be so much better.

That forum has tons of games like this.
I played and added on to pre-existing mods back when I was like, 8. Such simple code. Great zombie mods, great torture mods, great war mods. Great game.
Anyone else having issues starting it ? Windows 7 x64
I never understood how to work that iGalaxy gamemode.

I am, also Windows 7 x64.

This is all it does after doing the nightly SVN thing. Going to attempt compatibility modes.
Edit: Found something. When I clicked the triangle for the console it says error opening config.bs2
Edit 2: I don't have a config.bs2 :x
Edit 3: OP, use this link instead [url]http://siebn.de/download/BS2-20081014.zip[/url] it works for me.
I don't know how to run .bs2 files :saddowns:
You said powder toy clone, TOO BAD THE BURNING SAND GAMES CAME FISRT!
Silly OP.
^what blue saint said was first thing that came to mind when I read topic title
personally I loved these games though!
this game sucks
I had this game but I lost it.
I'd probably like Powder Game better, as I've been playing that for years.
[QUOTE=BearsFan2136;22805059]this game sucks[/QUOTE]
what kind of a troll post is this
first post on your account is "this game sucks" on one of the most entertaining sandbox(no pun intended) games?
be more constructive with your criticism!

Burning Sand 1 is superior, IMO. Much easier to make you own configs (mods). I made a metal mod and a hellfish type mod. Look for my mods under the name "Mechanicor". My friend made some sweet-ass mods under the name KING.

Oh fuck you OP, Burning Sand was before Powder Game and shit like that.
Powder Game was a falling sand clone.
