Flash Game Friday: Warp Game

The Platformer genre has largely gone by the wayside, with video game developers wanting more and more to make games which utilize sophisticated physics, graphics, and complicated motion controllers, but sometimes you just want a good platform game.  Thankfully, small Flash developers everywhere have taken to the call, and this week's entrant: Warp Game makes an admirable showing.

In its thirty levels (plus 3 bonus stages), you will traverse simply made platforms with one added catch: roam off screen left or right, up or down, and you'll appear on the other side.  The result is some fun puzzles to get through the stages.  Powerups are introduced halfway through that make you jump higher, become invulnerable, or break through certain walls.

It's celver, simple, and a great 30 minute distraction!
