Matter.js Demos

What Matter.js Demos actually is

The demo gallery for a 2D physics engine, running everything from stacked boxes and chains to soft bodies, catapults, car suspension, gravity wells and Newton's cradle. Every scene is live and every object can be dragged, flung or dropped while the solver keeps up.

Why it is worth your time

The soft-body and chain scenes catch people out, because you can pick up a wobbling blob and it deforms convincingly under its own weight.

Common questions

Is Matter.js Demos free?

Yes. Matter.js Demos is free and does not ask you to register or hand over an email address before you can use it.

How long does Matter.js Demos take?

Good within five seconds of loading. We file it under "Instant" — two dozen physics scenes you can grab and throw about.

Does Matter.js Demos work on a phone?

Matter.js Demos really wants a mouse and a wide window. It will load on a phone, but the experience is built for desktop.

What kind of site is Matter.js Demos?

We list it under Sandboxes & Simulators — small worlds that keep running without you. The soft-body and chain scenes catch people out, because you can pick up a wobbling blob and it deforms convincingly under its own weight.
