Manifold

Manifold is an interesting little flash-based platformer. During the game you collect “anomalies,” which can be thrown against walls to create bubbles that propel you in different directions.

Unfortunately the game is only a few levels long, and most of the challenge is in the final level, anyway. It’d be great to see the author extend the idea to a game that feels more complete.

And it looks like I’ve got some extra vertical space here.

Oh dear.

Yes, this is what we call good copy in the hard-hitting games journalism industry.

(Thanks, moshboy!)

Kind of interesting. Took me a while to realize that the bubbles actually effect gravity, and don’t just propel you around. Figuring that out was probably the second or third hardest thing in the game. In short it’s definitely not a hard game.

And is it just me, or is there currently a trend in indie platformers towards silhouette graphics?

Don’t start.
