Of all my posts here, my post here generated the most response - I guess I am not the only one interested in this esoteric field of manipulating the canvas at pixel level…
I have been playing around with the canvas texture class some more and have come up with this simple demo of balls bouncing on destructible (i.e. non-flat, non-axis aligned) terrain. To get the ball bouncing off angled terrains, I have adopted a very simple algorithm to calculate the surface/collision normal, which is described in my blog here.
The example code can be accessed below. Click mouse to generate new bombs.

As an aside, I have also created this little Lemmings like demo - in terms of the logic, this not much different from my Donkey Kong demo, but I would be grateful for any feedback or comment if anyone is interested in this sort of stuff (and add more features, as I ran out of energy).
