This is fantastic; inspired!

I love the combination of puzzle and action. It's similar to Double Bubble by the same author, but takes the 'guide the sprite' idea to another level.

It's games like this that highlight what a great sandbox tool AGD can be.

Well done Miguel!

I played it a bit

Good points:
- very original idea !
- nice graphics

Bad points:
- a bit hard for me, especially repeating all the screens when you die is mean.
- music is repetitive , consists of a few notes played over and over again

Great game! The graphics are good and there's some variety in the different planets you visit. Interesting choice of Michael Jackson on the title screen as well. I agree though that it would have been nice if you didn't have to go back to the beginning after you die.

The graphics are reminiscent of Multidude, which brings to mind that this would be an ideal candidate for a Nirvana+ version :mrgreen:

Yeah, it could be unintentional but it definitely sounds like this.
