So I got back to poking around in Arvi Teikari’s back catalogue, and I found Floating Islands Game. Not quite sure how I missed this the first time around, because it’s exquisite. It’s a Lemmings-like puzzle game, where you must figure out the use of mechanisms placed on each island to get a tiny stupid to safety. There are something like thirty five levels, and superb music throughout. Play it.

BulletZORZ
By Jim Rossignol on August 25th, 2008.
Continuing this year’s crayon-aesthetic in indie games, we have shooting platformer BulletZORZ, by Arvi Teikari. It’s slightly too hard in places, and it’s a shame more of the level isn’t on screen at any one time. Nevertheless the ideas are charming, especially using bullets to jump on as moving platforms.
Thanks, Indiegames Blog.
