Armadillo Run

It's a rather unique little physics based puzzle game. The object of the game is to get the armadillo (looks like a basketball) from where he is to the little blue portal using structures and devices made from several different materials such as metal bars, rubber, rope, cloth, and rockets. Each level has a budget so you have to get rather creative in how you solve the level as the dollar limit for each level is pretty low.

The game is insidiously addictive once you start learning some of the more advanced tricks and glitches. (ie: the force trick)Although the game can sometimes be too hard and you'll have to look at someone else's solution. You can also create your own levels and upload them to the website for others to play.

You can download a demo from the website that has a tutorial and a few of the levels from the main game. The full version costs about $10 (a percentage goes to charity which I thought was pretty nice) or if you know how you can get a free copy.

Not sure if this will tickle anyones fancy but it's a fantastic way to kill an hour.

The courage to change the things I cannot accept.
And the wisdom to hide the bodies of all the people I had to kill today because they pissed me off.

I have to check that game out sounds cool. However, this is how I commit tempricide.

Played that one to death. Literally, I killed it.

Is that even possible?

I like to put it on the Bush skin and pretend I'm making a difference. [Big Grin]

Yeah it's possible, I beat him so bad he was in a permanent daze. I let it sit for a good two hours and it never recovered.
