Yet another interesting little independent game has caught my attention recently…well, the demo caught my attention, anyway, but I’d imagine the whole game is just as good and bigger.
It’s called ‘And Yet it Moves’. Now, I WAS initially disappointed to find out that, despite the title, it is NOT some sort of simulation of a horror movie circa 1956 come to delightfully awful life. No, there are no gigantic ants, huge woodland creatures with a sudden hunger for human flesh or gen-atomic radiation of any sort to be found here. What it is…is a platformer. And a platformer that (in the demo anyway) does not seem to feature anything else on screen that’s alive. No, this isn’t my way of saying it’s a zombie game. There are no undead fire flowers trying to eat your brain here.
The interesting thing is the way that you move through the world. Sure, you can run and jump…you can also rotate the actual playing surface, so that what WAS the ceiling a moment ago is now the floor, and vice versa. Or so that what would have been considered running up a wall a second before is now simply running across the floor.

My mistake on the ‘no living things in the game but you’…I clearly saw snakes later on in that promo video.
GET THESE MOTHERFUCKIN’ SNAKES OFF MY MOTHERFUCKIN’ PLATFORM!
Yes, that was totally necessary.
And…maybe the snakes are undead?
You can find the demo here.
