It reminds me a lot of the game "Within a Deep Forest" which seems to do this concept much better. It's a free, worthwhile download.

Before anyome dismisses this, I thoroughly suggest you check out the rest of nitrome’s games ( http://www.nitrome.com ).

They vary in quality, and some are much better than others. Magnetboy (another recent release) Is a fun puzzler, though a bit over-complicated in areas. Dirk Valentine is a novel(ish) take on grappling hooks. Cheese dreams is pretty middling though.

However, they have some of the most excellently executed pixel art out there. Pixel art doesn’t always have to equate to retro-ness and gameplay statements like YHTBTR and RCF and all that.

Sometimes pixel art can /just/ be cute and pretty and fun…

This is like a remake of the hardest game in the history of everything:
Cauldron 2

The pumpkin an the moon look very much alike

It reminds me of SuperFrog’s later levels, for some reason.

Hmm. I dunno. I gave up on my second death, but then I’m too tired for proper perseverance. Interesting physics, though; I never knew the moon could create perfectly elastic collisions.

Yes, I do physics.

‘Tis alright. It could do with being more surreal I feel. The idea is fairly awesome – the moon being captured by space mice – but the cutesy/neutral graphics don’t really draw me in.

The ‘moon’ just being a ball of cheese doesn’t help either. But the game itself is fine.
