    I'm talking mainly about the aesthetic, so no it's not a team versus game where you build bases, but you do get to build whacky siege engines. The cute, toy-like yet gory visuals combined with the tight physics are what put me in mind of KAG.
    Pretty pictures:

    Unlike some other physics-y building games, the building UI is extremely intuitive and quick. With a limited but versatile set of blocks with unique functions, it is possible to build anything from catapults to helicopters, and in my case, a car that is a jack-in-the-box which ejects loaded canons with a catapult in between them, which launches a propeller-guided mine.
    I must reiterate that the really solid physics are something I love about this game. Everything is just a little bit elastic, and has a break point that you have to be wary of while building. This is the only limitation (along with a bounding box), so you can pack your machine full of gadgets; you just have to worry about them collapsing, or the recoil from cannon spam causing you to fly apart.
    Another thing this has that many other games with good sandbox elements forget to implement is an actual sandbox mode for you to play around with the mechanics that make the game great. You can make your vehicle incincible or set things on fire with your mouse in any level as well, at the cost of actually advancing.
    Here's another picture:

    Here's my genius cannon-in-the-box with catapult. The best part is, that blue part just rolling around is my core. You can also see five different types of recoil tear me apart.

    It also performs suicide:

    10/10, what I've concluded from this game is that making killing machines with penises is really really fun.
