@imrehg I wasn't much of a reader until a couple years ago. Much regret not making the switch earlier. Now I keep fiction on my phone (via Readest) to read on the go and non-fiction on my Kobo for when I have more time to dedicate and focus.

The physical game is basically done. I looking for a virtual environment for final testing such as a surface to play on and a few components (4 discs, 1 pole and 1 ramp) along with camera controls and controls for manipulating the pieces. I do not need any game logic at all; I just need the physics.
