While the elements are slightly lacking, it encapsulates a lot of what was fun and precious about gaming when the older gaming community were but little kids. The light hearted music, mildly enjoyable gameplay, and vast array of things to do really add to the game. The few things I didn't like, of the few things, would probably be a lack of dialogue, or depth to the storyline. I digress, though, if you want a game to pick up and play casually and savor the moment, this game would probably be your best bet. I have to compliment this game for all it's efforts in trying to be as retro as possible. Audaciously bold move, which I respect.… Expand

   In the game you are a pikachu-like character trying to put all of your offspring into the doorway in order to progress. To do that you must solve more and more complicated environmental puzzles - figure correct order to gather your offspring without killing them or yourself.
   
   The graphic is a standard a bit retro 2D style platformer graphic. Not extremely cute but does the job well and look good. Controls are nothing to pick about either - work and behave well.
   
   The puzzles are interesting enough to keep you going although the whole game feels a little like a mobile game. You solve a puzzle or two in between stuff that you do normally and come back to it at a later time. Admittedly there is quite a handful of puzzles to try and ability to both create custom levels and load new ones from the internet.
   
   Overall I can enjoy the game for some time and move on before coming back for a little bit more. Nothing really keeps you sucked in to finish all the levels.… Expand

The music isWhile the gameplay mechanics are fun and interesting, this fresh approach to the puzzle/platform genre never actually impresses. The music is good, but there aren't enough tracks to remain enjoyable. The 16-bit art style is cute, but the main character's design is too derived from Nintendo's Kirby.… Expand

You have to carry your "offspring" across the level and you can "fling" them across gaps, pits, traps, etc., hence the clever name. Very disappointing because when I saw this for sale they advertised 100 levels but each one is under a minute (speedruns are encouraged). Would not recommend this for anyone because $8 for 2 hours tops of gameplay is not a good value.… Expand
