Seems like the perfect site for me, the right combination of gamegeekdom, assholedery and open-mindedness to the creation of new words.

Check out this flash game linked below, called Cursor*10:

http://www.nekogames.jp/mt/2008/01/cursor10.html

What a great game mechanic! It's amazing how some game, some very simple game, can reinvigorate your hopes in the gaming industry to produce quality innovative gameplay instead of rehashed copy-pasting.

I'm not going to say much, I believe the game speaks for itself. It's only a few minutes long, try it out. =)

I win'd!
Probably the coolest game I've played in a while. Pretty silly "reward" at the end, though. :\

@Alanar

I just found it posted on the Penny-Arcade Forums. I'm not the original discoverer, but I found it too amazing not to share here. =)

If you guys are interested in seeing more of this mechanic, I understand that Braid, an indie XBLA game, will include an entire level devoted to this sort of stuff. It comes out next month, I believe.

You can check out a dev walkthrough here. The doubling self thing shows up near the end, if I remember correctly.

Wow it's a 4th dimension game.

Great find. Friend added.

Also, don't forget there is that new game coming for the PSN that deals with angles like an M.C. Escher painting, and leading a stick man from a to b. It comes out in the next month or two, and I can't remember the name for the life of me.

But I think it will be amusing like this.

At first I was thinking, this sucks, but then I realized that all the cursors came back. I really regretted tapping the button on the first dead end trying to figure out what to do.

It was pretty cool.

Wow that was pretty sweet.
One of the most original games I've played in several years now.
I too got to floor 15 and I too have to get back to work

The other day I thought to myself, "I wonder what truly innovative Flash games are out there?" and this is one of them. What an absolutely brilliant mechanic for a game. I love how frantic it got at the end as I hurried to catch up with... myself... wait what?!

4 dimensions, fantastic, good find.

Beat it on the first try, was surprised, I tried to perfect it on the second time but only got a score of 179.

How the crap do I get past floor 15? My only idea is to get all the pyramids, but I'm too lazy to play again and get them.

Awesome find...thank you so much. It's so great that even a nongamer, like my wife, will like it.

And for those who can't get to the 16th floor...click ALL of the buttons :)
