2d game physics?

Question

Can anyone point me to a library for 2D game physics, etc for programming gravity, jumping actions, etc for a 2d platform/sidescrolling game ? Or could you suggest some algo

Answer 1

If you got the time you could use PhysX but its likely an over kill for 2D. Besides that if you plan on having your game work on a PC and want some cool physics, try googling for "verlet integration" I know there are quite a few verlet implementations around (nice for particles and 2D rag-dolls).
