Ever had trouble imagining what it would be like to ride on a beam of light? Well MIT just put together an open source game where you run around a small village picking up orbs. Every time you pick up an orb, the universal speed of light slows down, so pretty soon you're seeing relativistic effects at walking speed. Freaky.
