Portabliss: Antipole (DSiWare)

Your skill to retreat sobriety allows you not usually to hang to the ceiling, but to expand jumps by flipping mid-jump, to flip enemies and environmental obstacles, and even to send bombs back ceiling to the enemies that forsaken them.

Each turn introduces a new fold to the formula, from lasers that you have to inhibit with a box, to poisonous pools of sludge that snuff out you in a strike -- and float ceiling toward you inside your sobriety burble -- to robotic spiders who secrete their own sobriety bubbles. The levels are short enough, and the restart time rapid enough, that it doesn't unequivocally infuriate you that ample to pick up by hearing and error. Antipole might not be the best- seeking diversion on DS; in fact, the graphics have a arrange of PC-shareware magnetism to them. But the turn pattern and mechanics mix to make enjoyably sly puzzles. And, occasionally, similar to when that poisonous sludge is involved, frustratingly sly puzzles.

If you come about to have an Xbox 360, you can try this diversion out -- it's on Xbox Live Indie Games. In fact, you featured it as an Indie Gem . It's just a cold game, on possibly platform!
