Torus
A torus is the shape of a ring: a circle swept around a line beside it, like a hoop made of tube.

How to play
Tap it to spin it on its edge. Dress it as a donut, bagel or swim ring in the Splash tab.
Notes
Donuts, bagels, swim rings and bicycle inner tubes are all tori. In topology, the math of shapes that can stretch but not tear, a torus has exactly one hole, so a coffee mug with its handle counts as one too.
Tap it and it pops up onto its edge and wobbles around like a coin spun on a table, leaning lower and circling faster until it drops flat. Real rings and coins do this: as one leans lower, its low point runs around faster, so a settling coin whirs quicker just before it stops. Under Dress it as in the Splash tab, pick a plain torus, a donut, a bagel or a swim ring.
