Games with no clear apparent aim or purpose have a special place in my heart. There is no pressure to accomplish something within a timeframe, you have the freedom to play as you choose, and there are no truly right or wrong decisions.
Simple to play, basic graphics, but endlessly entertaining, it is then no surprise that this addictive game was part of the Top 100 Digg stories of 2005.
Created using the open source Processing 1.0 engine, this game has caused a storm on the net. For user created submissions of this game see the post on Fark.com
Enjoy!
