Just figured Id throw out some gems every once in a while. These will typically be games that are seemingly straight forward, but provide more meaning than force glance would suggest.

Was digging though my pc games and found a little text file with an adress I guess I visit every so often, Think its been over a year this time.

http://zarat.us/down...eversion173.zip

Why, its a nice little side scrolling platformer! See I dont HATE them.

This link comes straight from zaratustra productions, so its virus free. Its incredibly small, so you could just push open, and click on eversion .exe and be playing instantly.

Dont forget to check out his other work if you like. Its always nice to see people keeping high quality products free just because they love what they do.

And... Thats all Im going to say. If any one actually tries this, and for long enough to begin to see what it is, it would be great to start a discussion about it.... To do so before hand would really ruin the experience.

The game didn't work for me. I clicked the link, it downloaded, but when I went to start it up, it said "Application not found". You better not have screwed with my computer.

I will not die until I achieve something. Even though the ordeal is high, I never give in. Therefore, I die with no regrets~Ikaruga Prologue

It wont screw with your computer. Probably just a case of a wrong pointer to where the file actually is, it is rather old, so different versions of windows might not handle file pointing the same way, which would lead to not being found. Try just opening it instead of downloading it, and clicking directly on the execution file.

Just a little pointer, gems will remain collected when you die. Trying to collect all the gems in a level, rather than just going from right to left, completely changes the game.

To that end, blocks stay destroyed when you evert.
Enemies stay dead when you evert
Both blocks and enemies can be crucial to both kill/not kill in order to collect all the gems.
