Nimbus. the graphics were so jolly that I was expecting an easy ride, yet I ended up with something not entirely dissimilar to Super Meat Boy, with a partiality to spiked surfaces pretty much everywhere.

You play a broken spaceship that is, for all intents and purposes, a glider, making it essentially "Preservation of Momentum: The Game". You have no way to move upwards on your own. If there's no form of power to take you there, you have to find another, slightly higher point in the level just so you can ride down and use the force to curl back up again.

Most of the game involves pinging your little bullet-like craft across bounce pads, but it does have some levels that are more like a puzzle platformer with an added skill-based element.

Also, it's really fucking hard. But pleasing to play. *Boing* *Boing* *Boing*
