So there's a lot of CutTheRope type games...

Like this one: http://itunes.apple.com/app/islash/id388130466?mt=8

Anyone any ideas or (better still) demo code for doing this sort of thing in Corona?

that’s not really like “cut the rope”. it’s more like “splitter” http://www.physicsgames.net/game/Splitter.html

you can’t do that in corona at the moment because you neither have bitmap fills or custom mask shapes (dependent on where the slice occurs)

i suggest putting in a feature request for dynamic masking

No need for mask, as this is mostly a point in polygon intersection algorithm. The issue is bitmap fills. We don’t support that yet.
