OK, just when I thought all creative innovation was gone from casual computer gaming, I saw this title this morning:

This is the first line of the description from the web site -
'And Yet It Moves' is a puzzle-platformer, set in a unique world, made of ripped paper. Within the paper collage, you can jump, run and last but certainly not least: rotate the world. Learn how to apply the physical consequences of rotation to master the many tricky situations you may encounter.

Before you ask, no, I'm not in any way associated with, nor do I know the developers.  It's just that I was so thrilled to find this title that I wanted to share it.  Like the World Of Goo before, these occasional titles keep proving to me that there's still some wonderful computer games to look forward to.

By the way, it's also available in the Mac Game Store.

I concur. Sometimes someone makes something pretty cool, and fairly casual as well. Not every great game has to be an A-List ultra-realism-world-war-ii game.

It's a really great game with a good mix of stylishness and gameplay. BTW, the developers sell a DRM-free version directly from their website too.

Yes.  Glad you mentioned the DRM-free aspect.  If you buy from their site, you get a free and clear version that requires no serial number or anything.

I was at first worried that this was another one of those phone-home pieces of software, and wasn't going to buy it.  But when I did see it was DRM-free, I gladly spent my 10 bucks.
