Maybe this is the original author? World of Sand by DOFI (2005)

edit: Found this after some googling: http://cowboyprogramming.com/2007/03/05/falling-sand-game-fr...

There was a similar Archimedes program printed in Acorn user in the March 1992 issue.

Atari ST game, in the same genre, from the Jan 1993 issue of ST Format: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SHZB9nIzZ64

Fantastic! For those wondering how such a program was printed (and then had to be typed by hand from the magazine), here's a scan cap of the page in question https://imgur.com/a/Mng21o3

And here you can find the full issue: http://8bs.com/aumags.htm
