Pretty much all the info regarding the game can be found here
And if your question isn't answered there, I can guarantee you'll find it here
(Also, be aware, Nifflas took down like 50% of the images on that page, so if there's a blank [spoiler] bank, ignore it.)

There's been speculation as to whether it's fake or not, because apparently Jace has faked an avatar for pretty much all the games Nifflas has made.)

QUOTE (Nifflas)
This is what I'd like to accomplish! (and I'm ready to pay quite a lot for it)

I want to create a game that takes place in a 2D landscape. The background scenery will contain slopes, but it does not have to be curved like in the demonstration images.

Except for the static terrain, I am only interested in two shapes. Rectangles and Spheres. The player character will be a ball that can be rolled with the left and right arrow keys. Boxes and rectangles collide realistically with the ball, and can be pushed and tipped.

There must be a way to attach several rectangles and spheres to each other, to create more complex objects (four rectangles can become a windmill). There must also be a way to attach a physical object to the background, so it's X and Y position becomes fixed, but it still begins to rotate realistically if you push it somewhere.



This game is looking to impress, considering Nifflas track record, with WADF, Knytt, KS, and now this. I'm excited.

I may update this every once in a while, but updating Jumper 3 is the main focus (updates-wise) at the moment. Enjoy this juicy info.

I'm a huge Nifflas fan. It's funny, because this info has been out for several months, and I never really mustered up the courage to post it here.


To be honest, I'm surprised people aren't going ape-**** yet, Nifflas is a rather well known freeware game developer. You think the news would've spread.

Well, before you posted the first info on one of their older games, I'd never heard of them. They're great game makers, though.

Nifflas' is an excellent game maker. Ever played Knytt stories? It's a game that I'm sure you'd like, considering how artistic you are. It lets you download other peoples levels, make your own, and download Nifflas' set of official levels. The levels you make are broken up into categories, each one you get to decide. There's challenge, environmental (Which I know you'd like.), ect. The game itself is very beautiful too. If you like a game where you just explore, with no difficulty at all, I'd suggest downloading Knytt. It's a beautiful game.

And there, I'm done with another one of my long-winded posts. I'm getting a lot more of those lately.
