Nothing Is Orisinal
It has been over a year since I last visited orisinal.com, a collection of flash games created by Ferry Halim. I visited recently to see what's new and discovered another beautifully designed game.
His latest, called Sunny Day Sky, kept me entertained literally for hours. You take control of, what looks like, a bear cub or something sylvanian. The object of the game is to jump over as many vehicles as you can and land safely on the roof of one before your umbrella prevents you from gaining any more lift.
The premise is simple, but addictive. The music was as delicious as always and fit snuggly into the overall scene.
One thing that I have always loved about the collection of games on Orisinal.com is the lack of violent content apart from a few older ones. The games carry with them an amazing amount of charm that leaves me feeling peaceful.
Instead of games where you endlessly shoot things with futuristic weaponry, or level up by slaughtering thousands of goblins, Ferry Halim's set include objectives such as making cats synchronise their action of sitting or strutting.
One of my favourites involves you catching falling flowers into a bottle tied to a balloon which is controlled by the player's fan-cursor.
One other game I found entertaining was one where the controls, in terms of what the player is capable of, were identical to Break-out but instead of using the paddle to deflect a ball that smashes down a matrix of bricks the player aided the crossing of Bambi-like deer over a canyon and power-ups were disguised as gently falling leaves.
Keep up the amazing work, I say.

I wish I had the patience for arcade-style games so I could properly appreciate them!
Have you ever played Hoshi Saga?

I have played Hoshi Saga. Nice and quick 'find the star' gamelet puzzles.
